Chapter 126
Skylar wanted to find out if Sadie was really sick because she had been reborn or if she was just faking it.
After work, she dropped by the hospital to check on Caleb, who had just done his surgery.
Then she went to Williams Residence.
The Williamses were ready for her arrival.
Sadie removed her makeup and was lying on the bed, pretending to be weak and sick.
The house was filled with people. The whole family was there.
Sadie felt anxious and guilty. “We don’t know if she’s coming. What should we do when she’s here?”
“If she shows up, we’re going to make her confess and then ask her to talk to Paul. It’s not too the mess, Jeffrey answered.
Kenny frowned. “Dad, I don’t think Skylar is having an affair with Paul.”

“Kenny, have you forgotten how she was at the nightclub? And how Paul was defending her? Do you still
think she’s a nice girl?
“She’s a country bumpkin who hasn’t experienced much of the outside world. She couldn’t get what she wanted from her biological parents and had to resort to being a sugar baby. This happens way too often than you think,” Samuel said with a growing hatred toward Skylar.
Plenty of women wanted to use him to climb the social ladder. He was just playing with them.
He felt uncomfortable now that his own sister was being played.
Peter glared at them and said with a poker face, “It doesn’t matter if she was having an affair or not. The point is that Paul knows who she is.
“For the sake of the company, even if there’s nothing going on between them, we need to make sure those connections work in our favor.”
“How can you push her into a situation like that? She’s still your sister.” Sadie couldn’t bear listening to
them.
“Mom, Maybe she’s the reason our company is in trouble. She hasn’t been donating blood to the hospital either. Clearly, she doesn’t see us as her family. So, we don’t have to be nice to her either,” Peter said indifferently.
The company and Maisy were important to him. However, the sister who came from nowhere wasn’t important at all.
He didn’t care even if Skylar were to marry a pervert as long as he could salvage their business.
Sadie was left speechless.
“Leave it to us. You don’t need to say anything once she’s back.” Jeffrey made up his mind after listening

to what his sons had to say.
Maisy was glued to her phone. Christopher kept sending her messages.
He was desperate for money and needed her help. However, she didn’t have much money herself, not enough to buy luxury bags anyway.
So, she just brushed him off.
She used to think Christopher was a great guy because he was Skylar’s boyfriend. She felt satisfied when she snatched her boyfriend.
Since Skylar didn’t even like Christopher anymore, he didn’t seem so special to Maisy anymore. All he did was please her in bed.
However, there were plenty of men who could please her. Christopher was worth nothing to her.
“Don’t worry, Maisy. Even when Skylar’s back, you’re the only younger sister I have. She doesn’t deserve to be my sister.” Samuel thought Maisy was jealous, which was why she was distracted and remained silent.
Maisy smiled at Samuel. “Skylar is still Mom and Dad’s biological daughter. We’ll talk some sense into her once she’s back. Maybe she’ll come around thinking we’re doing this for her own good.”
“By the way, what happened between you and Mr. Martin? I thought Joe liked you. Why would he listen to his assistant and turn against us?” Samuel was confused.
Maisy avoided eye contact. “I don’t know why, either.”
“Maybe we were wrong. Maybe Mr. Martin doesn’t like Maisy,” Sadie said.
Thinking back, maybe Sadie had been too confident about it. She thought Maisy was good enough to
attract someone like Joe.
However, she had forgotten that many women wanted to get close to Joe in Jipsburg. They were all equally as talented too.
