In a Love Nest with the Aloof CEO

Anger stirred within Avery as she glared furiously at Skylar. “You are just like your mom. Both of you are insidious and vicious. It’s obviously a genetic issue. With a murderer as a mom, you can’t be any good either.”

After Avery disclosed Skylar’s background, the other two girls in the dormitory immediately distanced themselves from Skylar.

Even Yasmin, who was on good talking terms with Skylar, had an unnatural expression on her face.

However, the fact was that Skylar herself was not sure what had happened back then.

She only knew that since young, she had always been labelled as a murderer’s daughter by both neighbors and classmates.

In her final year of high school, when everyone were sharing their dreams, she casually mentioned to her desk buddy that her dream was to join the army and somehow, word was spread to their teacher.

In front of the whole class, the teacher told her to forget about joining the army as they conducted stringent background checks. Also, she should not even think of becoming a civil servant as the recruitment department would assess the past three generations of her family to make sure their backgrounds were proper and it was impossible for a murderer’s daughter to venture into any of those areas.

As such, Skylar understood since a young age what it meant by everyone hitting a man who was down and that the defenseless would always get targeted.
