"What is it, Ms. Hanson?" she asked, standing between her and the door.

"I think we should have a nice little talk, you and I," Tanya said as she stared her in the eye.

"We'll talk in the corridor," Skylar didn't want to let her in, but Tanya simply shoved her out of the way and waltzed right in.

Her boldness was mainly backed by the fact that people generally wouldn't dare hurt a pregnant woman, which was exactly the case with Skylar.

That was the first time Tanya had met Miranda, and she could see right off the bat where Skylar got that pretty face of hers from. Like mother, like daughter, huh?

"Is that a friend of yours, Skylar?" Not knowing who she was, Miranda greeted her warmly and even poured her a glass of water.

As her gaze fell upon Tanya's tummy, she turned towards Skylar and said, "Look at how far along your friend is while you're still here all single!"

Tanya let out a snicker when she heard that. So this murderer doesn't know anything, eh?

"Single? Is that why she's stealing my husband like a sl*t? Seems to me you don't know your daughter all that well, Miranda!"

"Hey! Watch your mouth, Tanya! Get out of here and take your bullsh*t with you! You're disturbing my mom!"

Miranda asked Skylar what she was going on about, to which she replied, "It's nothing, Mom."

Tanya sneered, her eyes filled with hostility as she glared at Skylar. "Nothing? Tobias would've married me if by now if not for you! Well, I guess I have my own kindness to blame. I should never have let you go that easily! Anyway, you'd better stay the hell away from Tobias or I'll make you pay dearly, you hear? One word is all it takes for me to make you disappear! Do you think Tobias will still remember you when you're gone?"

Yes, that's right... Get angry, Skylar! Get really angry and hurt me! The angrier the better! I've come fully prepared for anything! I don't know if God wants this baby to live, but I sure as hell don't! If I give birth to this baby, Tobias will conduct a DNA test and uncover the truth for sure!

Skylar decided to take a leap of faith and take Tobias at his word that the child wasn't his. "What the hell do you want from me, Tanya? First of all, you two aren't even married yet, so I haven't stolen anyone's husband! Second of all, that child doesn't belong to Tobias and you know it!" she said with great confidence.

Having no idea as to what was actually going on, Miranda got confused and scolded Skylar instead, "I can't believe you actually became someone's mistress, Skylar! Apologize to her right this instant!" Miranda had always been a people-pleaser, so she naturally assumed that Skylar was in the wrong even though she knew nothing of what actually happened.

However, that only seemed to encourage Tanya further. "Wow, even your homicidal mom knows better than you, Skylar! You wanted to be a star, right? I'll let everyone know what you did! See if anyone will support you, then!"

Skylar mustered every bit of willpower she had in her to suppress her raging anger.

"Go ahead, you'll just embarrass yourself even more if word gets out. Everyone will know you as an unmarried mother living off the Fords!"

Those words opened up Tanya's old wounds, and she felt the urge to stab Skylar to death.

How the hell is a twenty-year-old girl like her able to tolerate being insulted and humiliated in front of her own mother?
