Upon hearing that, Skylar’s heart skipped a beat. Brayden is such a jacka*s, much worse than I’ve expected!
Infuriated, she slammed her hand on the table and tarred everyone with the same brush. “All of you men are despicable creatures! Can you actually sleep at night after impregnating a woman?”
Gazing at her face which had turned red in anger, he chuckled. “Did Brayden force her? Absolutely not. Hence, you can’t blame it on one party for it takes two to tango. You should be thankful that you’ve met a serious and responsible man like me.”
She rolled her eyes at him. Sheesh! It’s equally selfish to engage in any casual relationship that doesn’t end up in a marriage.
He did tell me before that he might not be able to spend a lifetime with me. Does that reflect his serious and responsible attitude?
She asked him, “What if I have your baby? Will you behave like Brayden—toy with me, and then leave me?”
“I don’t want to answer a hypothetical question.” He dropped the topic.
Skylar did not push it further as she was not interested to discuss the subject in detail with Tobias. Birds of the same feather flock together. They’re both the same.
In Skylar’s eyes, Tobias was a slightly better scum than Brayden.

Miranda had been pressuring him to announce his divorce with Irene publicly at the banquet. Otherwise, she threatened to tell the police what happened back then.
