Chapter 582
Indeed, Joe had been in a meeting. Half an hour through the meeting, he saw that Skylar had called and texted him. He glanced at the time and called her back
His call went through after a few seconds.
Joe asked, “I was in a meeting just now. Are you already heading there?”
As he spoke, she also heard the click of his lighter. Skylar said, “Yeah, we’ve set off already. We’re on the highway now.”
Joe flicked his lighter open. However, he didn’t light a cigarette. He merely looked down, a cold glint flickering in his eyes. He said, “When you get there, do te

me.”
“Be careful,” Joe added.
Skylar’s eyelashes fluttered as she responded, “Alright, don’t worry. I’ll take care of myself.”
worry. I’ll take care of myself.”
The second she hung up, Skylar felt as though there was a hole in her heart. It was uncomfortable.
Alexander asked with a smile, “Was that Joe calling you?”
Skylar halted her train of thought. She replied, “Yeah. I was telling him that I wouldn’t be going home tonight. I was scared he’d be worried.”
Alexander nodded cheerily. He said, “Joe is a good kid. He’s pitiable as well. Only his Grandma truly pampered him growing up. Men tend to be hard–headed. Although Joe seems uncaring, he does value a select few. I can tell that he cares for you.”
Skylar added, “He’s good.”
At this age, Alexander was extremely perceptive. He could tell what they were going through at a glance. However, he did not point it out. They would only truly comprehend it once they went through it themselves.
It did not matter how much advice their elders gave. They would probably not be able to understand it
anyway.
They were a good pair. He would let them pave their own way, and then they would learn their lessons. A few hours later, they arrived in Liberty County. Although they were in a rural area, Harry lived in a mansion. It was like a mini estate, and it was the only one of its kind in the village.
There weren’t many people in the county. It made the estate seem even quieter.
It was a great place to retire. One could enjoy peace and focus on spiritual development here.
Many people chose to build mansions here after consulting divination masters.
Before stepping onto his estate, Skylar felt he’d chosen a good location to build his mansion. One relaxed easily there.
However, the second she stepped into the estate, Skylar felt her heart sink to the bottom of her stomach. A chill prickled over her skin.
Harry was a nice man.
On the way there, Alexander had told her about Harry’s background. He had five sons and two daughters.
