Chapter 261
Paul stopped Annie just as she was about to chase after thern.
“Ms. Silver, you’re a smart woman. You should understand that you have to face the consequences of your actions. I’ve worked for Mr. Martin for many years, and this is the first time I’ve seen someone act in his name without his consent.
“Your mother even disturbed Mrs. Martin Senior. I’ve never seen someone act this way. Ms. Silver, you should focus on your work at the TV station and mind your
business.”
Annie seemed like a professional. Why was she acting so rashly now? Did the Silver family raise her to be so unruly?
She hadn’t taken his words seriously before and had been racking her brain for
another solution the entire time.
Now, she had become the black sheep of the Silver family. Her uncles even began to blame her. They were the ones who supported her relationship with Joe and event
helped look for an opening.
But now that something had gone wrong, they pushed the blame on Annie. Why didn’t they say anything when they wanted to use her to get close to the Martin family?
Her eyes reddened with tears.
“Mr. Zieglar, you’ve already told me that last time. But you can’t deny that I love Joe, and we’ve known each other for years. We shouldn’t be in this place because of Skylar.”
Paul was speechless to see that Annie still insisted on pursuing the matter.
Mr. Martin has made himself clear. Can’t you see that? I advise you not to make a fool of yourself.”
“Mr. Zieglar, please help me. The Silver family will do anything you want,” Annie pleaded, putting all her hopes on Paul.
She was really out of options and regretted her actions. She had lost her composure just because she saw a woman by Joe’s side.
Paul looked at Skylar and the group walking away in the distance. Was Joe looking for Skylar?
“From the moment you decided to act in Mr. Martin’s name, you had jumped into a bottomless pit. If Mr. Martin lets you off easily, people like you will spring up everywhere tomorrow. That would be a huge slap in his face. Do you understand now, Ms. Silver?”
After finishing. Paul took out his phone. While chasing after Joe, he made a call.
“In the future, don’t allow Ms. Annie around Mr. Martin.” He didn’t speak too loud, but it was just enough for Annie to hear.
Annie felt even more humiliated. Was there really no other way?
Standing in a daze, she suddenly saw a figure in the distance. It was Skylar.
Annie bit her lip hard. She felt very conflicted toward Skylar.
She and Joe would still be friends if it weren’t for her. Even if their relationship hadn’t taken a step further, they wouldn’t have parted ways so bitterly.”
She couldn’t wait for Joe to kick Skylar aside once he got tired of her. By then, if
Skylar had stayed in Jipsburg City, she would become a target for many people.
Skylar would be ruined.
Annie took a deep breath and calmed down. Though her eyes were still bloodshot, she knew what to do next. She had to pay for what she did.
She glanced at Skylar and the group and cursed, “Skylar, it’s not worth ruining the Silver family over you. Joe can’t protect you forever. I will get even with you for the humiliation I suffered today.”
As they walked away, Natalie looked back occasionally. She was surprised to see Joe approaching them but didn’t think much of it. It was probably just a coincidence. But why was Annie glaring at Skylar?

“Skylar, do you know Annie?” Natalie asked curiously.
Skylar turned to look in Annie’s direction upon hearing the question. She was a bit
surprised to see that Joe and Annie had already parted ways. They didn’t seem to
have said much to each other.
Even from a distance, Skylar could tell that Annie was looking at her.
“We’ve met a couple of times,” Skylar replied.
Natalie nodded in realization.
“No wonder she’s staring at you.”
However, she had a feeling that Annie seemed to view Skylar as a love rival. But that
couldn’t be possible. Skylar didn’t even know Joe. She only had a fake marriage
certificate.
“You must be mistaken,” Skylar said, not wanting to elaborate.
Annie was a cunning woman, and Skylar didn’t want to get involved with her.
“What are you two talking about?” Charles, who was walking ahead, asked when he
saw them chatting and looking back.
Natalie pointed toward Annie and asked, “Do you see that beautiful woman?”
Charles glanced over and was impressed when he saw Annie.
“I know her! That’s Annie Silver, right? Her show is very popular, and she’s really
pretty, too.” She was his type based on appearance alone.
“No matter how pretty she is, she’s not as beautiful as Skye,” Natalie said firmly. No.
celebrity, not even Annie, could compare to her.
Suddenly, a figure popped into her mind–Jeremy’s secretary, who naturally had a great figure but also worked hard to maintain it. She was the kind of woman men
couldn’t resist.
Natalie frowned slightly. Why did she suddenly think of her?

Annabelle was just Jeremy’s secretary. She wasn’t even his type. But now that Natalie was reminded of her, the way Annabelle looked at her seemed unusual, almost as if she were competition.
“If I ever get to be on her show, it means I’ve made it big,” Charles said, full of dreams. and expectations for the future. Once he achieved his career goals, he’d find a
girlfriend he truly loved.
Natalie pushed aside her chaotic thoughts and smiled. “Charles, I have a feeling you’ll be famous soon,” she said.

“Thank you! When I make it big, I’ll take you two to Nordland and you’ll have the time of your lives,” Charles promised generously.
Skylar smiled. “I believe you can do it! Visiting Nordland is my dream. I’ll be waiting for you to make it come true.”
“Just wait! I won’t let you down!”
The three of them continued chatting and laughing as they walked.
Meanwhile, Joe was getting closer. Suddenly, several middle–aged men blocked his path, seemingly delighted to see him.
“What a coincidence, Mr. Martin! We didn’t expect to run into you here!”
Since we’ve met, why not join us for some tea?”
“You’re becoming more and more composed these days.”
Joe looked at the men blocking his way and discreetly glanced at Skylar ahead.
“Mr. Morris, Mr. Perez, Mr. Evans, it’s good to see you here.”
Paul, who had caught up, saw the men surrounding Joe and immediately came over to greet them.
