Jared Sullivan couldn’t bear it anymore, stepped forward, and fiercely slapped Skylar Hughes.

"I should never have agreed to let your mother bring you into the Sterling Family! I was truly inviting a wolf into my ho!"

Skylar Hughes trembled all over.

Amidst her trembling, she suddenly saw Yvette Hughes, standing at the door in her pajamas, with a look of shock on her face.

Skylar Hughes looked as if she had seen her savior and cried out to Yvette, "Mom, save , save ! Uncle Sterling is going to kill , Uncle Sterling is going to kill ..."

Seeing Jared Sullivan’s sullen expression and Skylar Hughes shaking in fear, Yvette Hughes snapped out of her shock, rushed over, and grabbed Jared Sullivan.

"Jared, Jared, what are you doing? What did Skylar do wrong?"

She had just seen Jared Sullivan hit Skylar Hughes with her own eyes.

Although Jared Sullivan was always decisive outside, he was very good-tempered at ho. He wouldn’t even think of hitting soone, let alone losing his temper with family won.

But now, he actually hit Skylar Hughes, and his expression was so terrifying that Yvette was scared, afraid he might really do sothing to Skylar Hughes.

Jared Sullivan looked at Yvette Hughes pleading for Skylar Hughes and sneered.

"What did she do? She sneaked into my study to steal Penson’s research docunts, and when I caught her, she tried to kill to cover it up! You sure taught your daughter well, she even dared to commit murder!"

"Impossible, Skylar couldn’t do such a thing. She wouldn’t..."

Yvette Hughes looked at Skylar Hughes, yet Skylar’s expression told her that Jared Sullivan was telling the truth.

Yvette suddenly felt as if she had fallen into an ice cave.

All that concern about her as a mother was nonsense; Skylar Hughes’s interim concern was just for gathering information, ultimately leading to stealing from the Sterling Family.

Ti after ti, she trusted her biological daughter, even resorting to using the child as leverage, guaranteeing this daughter in front of Jared Sullivan.

But what did she get in return? A daughter repeatedly taking advantage of her.

Yvette was dispirited, but given their kinship, she couldn’t possibly ignore Skylar Hughes.

"Jared, Skylar was just montarily confused, and you’re fine now too, aren’t you? Just let her go this once, okay? I promise she won’t co to the Sterling Family again..."

Jared Sullivan also felt sowhat cold toward Yvette Hughes at this point.

He had almost died at the hands of Skylar Hughes, and yet Yvette felt that because he was alright, he shouldn’t pursue responsibility? Ha...

Jared Sullivan’s expression made Yvette Hughes sowhat anxious, "Jared, I know, I know I shouldn’t plead, but she’s my daughter..."

Jared Sullivan looked coldly, "I told you long ago, your daughter is not a good person, yet you didn’t believe when I said not to associate with her. I’m telling you, if she can be ruthless with today, she will certainly be ruthless with you in the future. I’m calling the police now, letting them handle it. It’s best for you and her both."

Yvette Hughes didn’t speak imdiately, and Skylar Hughes beca panicked.

"Mom, I’m your biological daughter. You can’t let Uncle Sterling call the police. If he calls the police, my life will be over! Are you just going to watch my life be ruined like this?"

Yvette Hughes ca to her senses, oh yes, even if her daughter made a mistake, she’s her biological daughter.

If her biological daughter went to jail, how could she be at peace?

"Jared, I’m begging you, let Skylar off. She’s my daughter. I know she’s done wrong, and now she knows too; she will change. Please let her go, don’t call the police, okay? Please don’t call the police."

Then, Yvette Hughes snatched the docunts from Skylar Hughes’s hands, "Here are the docunts back, Jared, the docunts are returned to you, I beg you. Skylar is my daughter; if she goes to jail, what will I do?"

Yvette cried uncontrollably, but it didn’t soften Jared Sullivan’s heart.

Seeing this, Skylar Hughes imdiately said, "Uncle, my mom’s crying so much, and she’s still pregnant with your child. If you really call the police to arrest , she’ll cry herself to death. You don’t care about my mom, but don’t you care about the child in her belly? Look, my mom’s about to pass out crying..."

Skylar Hughes’s last sentence seed to remind Yvette Hughes, and Yvette really fainted.

Jared Sullivan was startled, quickly checking Yvette’s condition, and Skylar Hughes took advantage of this opportunity to flee the Sterling Family.

Jared Sullivan didn’t have the mind to worry about Skylar Hughes anymore, hurriedly taking Yvette to the hospital.

After hastily leaving the Sterling Family, Skylar Hughes was still panicked.

Jared Sullivan was entangled by Yvette’s unconsciousness, but once he ca to his senses, he certainly wouldn’t let her go.

She could tell that Jared Sullivan was determined not to let her go this ti.

So she had to gain the Hale Family’s recognition and protection before Jared Sullivan ca to his senses; as long as the Hale Family backed her, Jared Sullivan wouldn’t dare to do anything to her.

Thinking of this, Skylar Hughes hurriedly took out her phone and opened the photos inside.

Fortunately, to be completely safe, she had taken photos of the docunts with her phone, so Jared Sullivan would certainly think she didn’t take the docunts; they’re secure. He wouldn’t expect that she already photographed them.

She needed to quickly hand over the docunts to Henry Hale; once Apex released this research result before Penson, the achievent would beco Apex’s, and Penson’s new product scheduled for release next month wouldn’t be able to be released, preventing Penson from overtaking Apex.

And even if Paige Sterling realized Apex’s new product was originally Penson’s, what could she do?

Paige Sterling lacked evidence, could do nothing, and could only watch.

Thinking of Paige Sterling jumping in fury yet unable to do anything made Skylar laugh uncontrollably.

As long as Apex rose again with this data, she’d be the Hale Family’s heroine, and who in the Hale Family would dare look down on her?

Although Skylar Hughes often mocked Paige Sterling’s incompetence, even if the whole world said Paige Sterling was capable, she insisted that Skylar Hughes had no real talent.

Yet, she didn’t notice she had blind confidence in Paige Sterling’s abilities deep down.

Otherwise, she wouldn’t deem the docunt’s role so important.

So she never questioned if there was anything wrong with the docunt, and wanting to hand it to Henry Hale before Penson noticed, she didn’t have spare ti to closely examine it.

Of course, with her diocre abilities, she couldn’t understand it anyway.

Thus, without waiting for the next day, Skylar Hughes rushed to the Hale Family that night, wanting to et Henry Hale.

Having paid such a high price to help Henry Hale, she wanted to make sure the entire Hale Family knew her sacrifice and clearly state her conditions before handing over the docunt, otherwise, what if the Hale Family reneges later?

She wouldn’t do sothing where the effort doesn’t pay off.

At this ti, the Hale Family hadn’t rested and, hearing Skylar Hughes was here, Dad Hale subconsciously disapproved and looked at Henry Hale.

"That woman’s reputation is so bad, yet you associate so closely with her, and now she’s co to the house. What exactly are you trying to do?"

Those days, Henry Hale took Skylar Hughes everywhere; if Dad Hale didn’t know Henry Hale had his own plans, he would have intervened early on.

He couldn’t possibly allow his child to be with soone like Skylar Hughes.

"It’s not what I want to do; it’s what she wants to do." Henry Hale smiled, "Invite her in, and we’ll find out."

Dad Hale wore a suspicious expression, suspecting his son was using Skylar Hughes for sothing, but considering Skylar’s status, there didn’t seem to be anything to exploit, right?

Yet seeing his son had his own plan, he didn’t object.

Thus, Skylar Hughes was invited into the Hale Family.

The excitent still lingered on her face, causing Henry Hale to raise his eyebrows involuntarily.

Seeing Skylar Hughes like this, sothing good must have happened.

He found it hard to believe Skylar Hughes could really get anything good from Paige Sterling,?

"So late, what’s your business?" Henry Hale spoke.

Skylar Hughes controlled her excitent and said, "Henry, I said I could help you, could help your Hale family regain the position as the leader in the technology industry; do you still believe ?"
