Chapter 1623

Skyler was just engaged, and to a man who hardly seemed to welcome her presence. Her mother, of all people,

was now pressing her to have a child with him as soon as possible.

Even though Skyler’s heart had turned cold long ago, her mother’s words still managed to punch a hollow void

inside her, sending a chilling breeze through her soul. “Mom, can I ask you a question?”

Barbara replied nonchalantly, “If there’s anything you don’t understand, just call Ashlyn. She’s been coaching you

for a while now; she knows where your strengths lie when it comes to… that matter. Though she doesn’t rate your

skills highly, thankfully you’re young and attractive. Men seem to like that innocent cluelessness. Zavier, that boy is

full of youthful vigor. He won’t be able to resist your charms.”

“Am I really your daughter? What kind of mother views her own child as a plaything to be offered up for someone

else’s amusement?” Skyler wanted to ask. But after hearing her mother’s words, she could only muster a hollow

laugh, unable to voice her true thoughts.

She knew all too well the nature of the Blue family. If she hadn’t stepped up, her younger sister might have been in

her place. And her sister was still just a kid.

“Sky, once we get home, make sure you behave, especially around Hudson. He’s the helmsman of the Rivera family

empire. Get him a great-grandchild soon, and not only will you bask in endless luxury, but the Blue family will shine

in the reflected glory,” Barbara droned on, seemingly oblivious to Skyler’s turmoil or perhaps she sensed it but

simply didn’t care.

Skyler remained silent.e2

Barbara tugged at her ear. “The Blue family has provided for you for eighteen years, giving you the best of

everything-food, clothes, and education. Now it’s time to repay your debt to the family. Don’t let us down now,

understand?”

Skyler said nothing and turned to walk back into the house.

Barbara cursed under her breath, “Ungrateful brat.”

Crossing the yard, Skyler headed towards the main house. As she neared it, a stranger’s voice drifted over from the

garden.

“Kalene, I noticed the Blue girl hardly touched her dinner. Could it be she’s unwell?”

After being paraded in front of strangers all day and enduring the evening’s uncomfortable atmosphere, Skyler had

lost her appetite. It was no wonder people were concerned.

Curious about what Kalene, who had spoken for her during dinner, would say, Skyler paused to listen.

Soon enough, Kalene’s voice came through, “Young girls always watch their figure and tend to eat less at night. I

doubt there’s a serious issue.”

The stranger pressed, “But look at how thin she is, hardly any meat on her bones. A body that frail might struggle

with childbirth.”

Skyler almost laughed. Everyone knew being too thin could cause issues with childbirth, yet society still pressured

women to stay slim.

Kalene added, “When the driver takes her to Zavier’s, I’li remind his staff to pay special attention to that girl’s diet

and focus on trying to fatten her up a bit.”

The stranger continued, “You know how complex the Rivera family is-father has my second brother and his wife

close by, and then there’s my third brother and his wife, all eyeing the family business.”

Skyler guessed this was Zavier’s aunt, Nora. Hudson had three sons and a daughter, and rumor had it his daughter

was his darling.

Kalene responded firmly, “The Rivera family’s fortunes were hard-earned by our elders. Whoever he chooses to

take over will do so. I have no objections.”
