Chapter 331
Joe’s expression remained unchanged as he replied, “Alright.”
The next moment, Paul returned. “I just spoke with the doctor. You can be discharged. I’ve already picked up your medication.”
After that, Skylar left the hospital and went back to the hotel.
Originally, Joe had also gotten in the car with her, ready to return to the hotel to rest. But Jenny called and
said she felt unwell. So, Joe returned to the hospital, and Paul was left in charge of taking Skylar back.
It took about 20 minutes to reach the hotel. After dropping Skylar off, Paul rushed back to the hospital. It
seemed that Jenny’s condition might be urgent..
Skylar then took a shower and laid down to rest. She pulled out her phone to chat with Natalie.
Ever since that night, Natalie had been unusually quiet over the past couple of days.
Now that Skylar had time to settle down, she realized something seemed off with Natalie. Natalie would
usually call or text the next day if she was with Jeremy.
Skylar sent a photo she had taken in the hospital to Natalie and wrote, “Who knew that I’d end up in the hospital with gastritis on this trip?” She then added a crying emoji.
Within a minute, Natalie called her. “What’s going on with you? I don’t remember you ever being in such bad shape. We used to eat and drink recklessly together, yet you never had stomach issues. How did you end up with gastritis in Korel City?”
Natalie had probably thought of the mistreatment Skylar had faced in the Williamses and continued, “I was against you donating blood to Maisy from the start. Every time I see her, I get uncomfortable.
“She’s a manipulative bitch. But you’d just returned to the Williamses and wanted to get along with them, so I couldn’t stop you. Now, I regret it so much. I should’ve stopped you then.”
Skylar laughed and said, “I regret it too. At that time, I was too foolish to believe the Williamses would appreciate my sacrifice. In the end, it was all for nothing.”
“Forget it. It’s not too late to realize that now. By the way, how’s it going? Any romantic encounters?
“With your looks, men should be lining up for you. Elliot asked about you the other day. He seems to have fallen for you at first sight. Interested?” Natalie suggested, turning into a matchmaker.
Hearing Natalie’s usual cheerful tone, Skylar felt relieved. “There is no need for romantic encounters. I’m a married woman and need to stay faithful. Besides, romance isn’t really my thing.” Skylar said calmly.
Now, Skylar’s relationship with Joe was just right. They satisfied each other physically, their marital relationship was respectful, and they usually didn’t interfere with each other’s work,
If Joe ever wanted a divorce one day, she could walk away without pain. Skylar believed Joe probably felt
the same way.
Chapter 331
For once, Natalie didn’t argue with Skylar about romance. Instead, she sighed and said, “Married? Are you still caught up in the act? Are you seriously telling me that Joe Martin’s your husband?”
“I’d never lie to you. Joe Martin really is my husband,” Skylar replied.
