Chapter 354
Skylar had no appetite, en she found an excuse Just now, a college classmate found out that I was here and asked to hang out. I have to go over right away. You guys mat”
Sometimes, disliking someone wasn’t because they were bad but because their energy didn’t sit well, making one just want to keep a distance respectfully.
Jenny gave off this kind of vibe to Skylar. In fact, she had a good impression of her the first time they met. However, after meeting several times, she felt they were not on the same page and couldn’t be friends.
She was afraid she might have indigestion if they were to eat together.
Joe gazed calmly, looking at Skylar a little coldly and asked. “Classmate?”
“Yeah, I made plans when we got out of the car just now. I didn’t have time to tell you.”
“That’s too bad.” Jenny Interrupted.
She really wished Skylar was not there so she could have a private time with Joe to have a meal together.
Joe glanced at his watch and said, “I have a meeting later. You can eat by yourself.”
Then, he said to Skylar, “I’ll send you.”
And so, Joe also left.
The ward was empty again. Jenny didn’t even have a chance to speak.
Joe seemed to be indifferent to everything as usual, but just now, he was obviously watching Skylar all the time.
“Camilla, do you think Joe likes Skylar?”
Camilla saw it clearly when she was standing aside just now. At her age, there was nothing that she couldn’t figure out.
Jenny liked Joe, but Joe seemed to only have eyes for Skylar, and he only treated Jenny as his sister.
Camilla said, “Yes, I think so.”
Although Joe didn’t express his emotions, he seemed to be a good match for Skylar.
Jenny became gloomy. Eyen Camilla could see it.
“Ms. Scott, what do you want to eat for lunch? Camilla asked.
Jenny had no appetite, so she shook her head and said, “I’m fine with anything. I don’t have any preference for now.”
“Okay, then I’ll ask the doctor what you can eat, Ms. Scott,” Camilla said earnestly.

Joe asked Skylar where she was going before getting in the car. Skylar had only made up an excuse. She didn’t expect Joe to offer to send her.
“You have a meeting in the afternoon. I’ll just call a cab.”
She planned to spend the afternoon by the beach and seaside. They were leaving tomorrow, and she had developed some feelings for this city in just a few days. She was reluctant to leave.
Joe’s attitude suddenly turned harsh. “Get in the car,” he said.
“You really don’t have to_”
“I’m taking you to lunch,” Joe said, staring at her. His glance exposed all of Skylar’s lies.
It was a real pity that Joe did not become a police officer. How did he know she was lying?
car with
She directly got into the any further words. They didn’t speak after getting into the car. Skylar didn’t explain why she was looking for an excuse to leave. Joe also didn’t ask.
They went to a Taegu restaurant. After taking their seats, Joe spoke first. “You don’t like Jenny?”
“It’s not that I don’t like her. I just don’t quite like staying in the hospital for a long time. Besides, with me around, Ms. Scott will also feel restrained,” Skylar replied, thinking that her answer was perfect.
Sometimes, there was no need to say something too clearly.
She indeed didn’t like Jenny.

However, she and Joe still had to live on in the future, so she had to maintain their image.
Joe took a deep glance at her and said, “Her mom lost her life to save me. I take care of her just to fulfill her mom’s last wish.”
Skylar was surprised by Joe’s sudden explanation, not knowing how to respond for a moment. “Yeah, it should be so.”
Luckily, the restaurant served the dishes quickly. As the dishes were served one by one, Skylar deliberately ignored the unclear thoughts in her mind while eating.
The dishes served in the Taegu restaurant were delicious. She rarely ate there last time and only vaguely
remembered that Natalie took her there once.
Joe had to return to the hotel after lunch because he indeed had a video conference to attend, so Skylar
went to a nearby beach.
In the evening, Skylar received a message from Joe saying he would be unable to have dinner with her.. Jenny’s condition had suddenly changed, and she was taken into the operating room again, so he went to the hospital.
Skylar went to dinner by the pedestrian street where she had been before. There were many snacks. She walked around, ate the snacks and took a lot of pictures.
She returned to the hotel around 10:00 pm, but Joe had yet to return. She then packed her luggage. She thought perhaps Joe wouldn’t go to the airport with her the next day.
It was about 2:00 am when Joe returned.
He opened the door very softly. But Skylar couldn’t sleep soundly in the hotel, so even the subtle sound. still woke her up. She looked at the door and asked, “You’re back?”
“Did I wake you up? Go back to sleep. I’m going to take a shower,” Joe whispered. His low voice carried a hint of gentleness under the night sky. Skylar hummed, turned over and continued to sleep peacefully.
Joe got into bed about half an hour later. He hugged Skylar and gave her a very light peck on the cheek. Skylar felt it.
She fell back to sleep after waking up earlier, but somehow, she gradually became wide awake, clearly feeling him getting into bed.
To him, she should have been asleep.
So, his kiss…
Skylar’s heart trembled slightly. Perhaps she was overthinking. She soon heard Joe’s steady breathing.
Did he fall asleep so quickly?
If she hadn’t personally seen his insomnia before, she would now suspect that he was playing the victim by talking about his insomnia.
Lost in thought, she drifted off to sleep again.
Some people fell asleep late at night and had beautiful dreams. On the other hand, some people couldn’t sleep as the sky darkened.
In the Williams Residence, in Maisy’s room, a workout had just ended.
Kenny glanced at the time and said, “It’s 3:00 am. Let’s sleep. We still have to go to the hospital tomorrow morning.”
There wasn’t anyone at home, so he and Maisy ended up sleeping in the same room. Probably because they had just been together, both of them had strong needs for each other.
Maisy had just returned to bed after taking a shower. When she was casually browsing Instagram on her phone, she suddenly saw Skylar’s post. She widened her eyes, seeing Skylar touring around Korel City.
“Look, Skylar isn’t in Jipsburg. She ignored us and didn’t even go to the hospital to take care of Mom. She actually went traveling to Korel City instead! She is so heartless and cruel!”
Kenny was initially a little tired and sleepy. Upon hearing what Maisy said, he immediately looked at Maisy’s phone. It was Skylar’s Instagram. The first picture was clearly Korel City. It was a photo of the beach with an amazing view.
He suddenly became extremely gloomy. “I thought she was just mad at us. We had neglected her before, so it’s normal for her to throw some tantrums, but I’ve never expected her to disregard Mom’s life and go on a trip!”
“Kenny, she hates me a lot. Why don’t you send her a private message and give her a piece of your mind!” Maisy rolled her eyes as she came up with the idea.
