Marcus raised his brow. At the same time, his smile faded away. “Oh, right. There’s such a strong person to back
you up. My sister won’t cross the line. After all…”
Skylar interrupted Marcus coldly before he could finish his sentences, “Are you trying to say that one should always
check who the owner is before beating a dog? By the way, I’m not a dog, and I won’t sit there and get beaten up.”
The atmosphere became tense. Marcus simply looked at her as if he was wishing her good luck.
Hannah asked curiously, “Who is that? He is so good-looking.”
Skylar stared at Marcus’ back as he walked away, saying in an annoyed tone, “What’s the point of being good-
looking? That siblings are out of their mind. They acted like they’ve been through some childhood trauma.”
By the time Tobias went back to the company, there were already stacks of documents on his desk. Then, he asked
Eva to come in.
Eva had just finished answering a call from one of the debt collectors. She got furious and cursed at those people
through her phone.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtHow she wished she could kill Kevin. Aren’t siblings supposed to help each other? But my brother is nothing but a
burden to the family.
Standing in front of Tobias’ office, Eva took a deep breath and recomposed herself, trying to be professional and
putting on a fake smile on her face.
After entering his office, she turned around and quietly closed the door.
“You look like you’re in a good mood. You still manage to laugh despite what happened to your family.” Tobias gave
her a cold-eyed stare.
He suddenly thought of Skylar’s gloomy face. On the contrary, Eva didn’t seem to be bothered at all.
Eva’s smiling face vanished completely. Immediately, she pulled a long face.
Eva explained, “Mr. Ford, I won’t let my personal issues affect my work. This is the basic quality of a good
employee.”
Tobias frowned his dark brows. He was annoyed to see Eva flattering herself.
Then, he asked, “How much do you love this job?”
Eva was stunned for a moment and answered without any hesitation, “I love my job very much. I think the company
is just like my family. I’m willing to sacrifice for company.”
Tobias had heard enough of those words. He had lost count of the number of people who told him the same thing,
saying that they were willing to give their everything to the company. There were just too many of them.
“Let me give you a choice. Your brother was still underage. I would take that as he doesn’t know how to make life
choices. Both of you are related by blood. So, I’ll leave this to you. Your parents and brother have been pestering
Skylar. I’ll give you two options. First, turn a deaf ear. Second, stop your parents from pressuring Skylar. At the
same time, get your brother to clarify the matter online.”
She clenched her fists tightly. Obviously, she was nervous. Her forehead was covered with a thin layer of sweat.
“Mr. Ford, I can’t control what my parents want to do. I’ve tried to persuade them to not go too far. I even told
them not to put Skylar in a difficult position. My brother is immature and ignorant. They are being unreasonable too.
You don’t even know I was about to sever ties with them because of this issue.”
Tobias’ gaze gradually darkened. “I’m not interested in your nonsense. What’s the point of telling me this? It’s not
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmlike I could understand anything you told me. Have I not made myself clear enough? If your brother doesn’t make a
clarification on the internet, then you don’t have to come back for work anymore. Skylar is soft-hearted. She is
afraid that your brother’s future will be affected. Unfortunately, I’m not like her.”
Eva felt so regretful. She was just trying to give Skylar a little bit of pressure that time. Hence, she came out with
the idea. She never thought that Tobias would intervene in that matter.
Of course, she knew Skylar’s weakness. Therefore, she would definitely suffer in silence until Kevin finished his
exam.
However, she forgot about how merciless Tobias was. He was cruel enough to threaten her with her career.
Therefore, she could only choose between her brother’s future or her career. Otherwise, she would lose her job.
Every company out there would do anything to hire employee who worked for Ford Group before. Apart from that,
headhunters would also be calling them.
On the other hand, one would be treated differently if one were terminated by a company. Big companies would
never hire someone who was fired by the Ford Group.
If she left Ford Group, there were not many companies left for her to choose from. She could only work in some
small companies that offered a much lower salary. Then, she would remain poor for the rest of her life.
After a few minutes, Eva was still unable to make up her mind.
