Chapter 337
Jenny was wheeled out of the operating room. She was still unconscious and was taken to the intensive
care unit.
Once it was confirmed that there were no complications post–surgery, she would be transferred to a regular ward.
Joe instructed Paul to stay and watch over her. Then, he returned to the hotel from the hospital.
As he stepped out of the car, he headed toward the hotel and spotted Skylar ahead of him.
“Skylar,” Joe called out in a deep voice.
Hearing someone call her name, Skylar immediately stopped and turned around to look at Joe.
For a moment, she’d thought that it might be Christopher following her to the hotel. But it turned out to be
Joe.
Shouldn’t he be at the hospital? Had Jenny’s operation ended?
“Shouldn’t you be resting at the hotel?” Joe asked. His tone was slightly reproachful at her disobedience.

He could think whatever he liked.
After all, it wasn’t a bad thing for women to be a little weak. It was better than men being weak.
“Let’s go back to the room.” Joe stepped forward and naturally embraced Skylar.
Skylar was already accustomed to the intimacy between the two of them. Even when Joe hugged around her shoulders, she’d naturally lean against him.
Even she didn’t realize that the habit had formed. Sometimes, it only took a few days for a habit to form.
As soon as the two entered the hotel’s elevator, there was a stiff figure outside the hotel’s glass door Christopher clenched his hands tightly as his eyes filled with disbelief.
That man… That man was Joe Martin! Skylar really was with another man, and it was Joe.
