Chapter 702
Half an hour later, Natalie tried calling Skylar again. However, there was still no answer. Worried, she went to the Martin Group and found Paul. After checking with Joe, Paul informed her that Skylar was in the hospital.
Natalie rushed over, her heart pounding. When she reached the hospital, she found Skylar’s ward quickly.
“Wow, you were in such a serious car accident!” Paul had mentioned it
was a car crash.
Skylar, however, downplayed the severity. “It’s nothing serious,” she insisted, her smile strained.
“Nothing serious?” Natalie was skeptical, given the visible injuries on Skylar’s forehead and hand.
Skylar had always been cautious and diligently followed traffic rules. It was hard to believe she could have been in such a serious accident.
“How bad is it?” Natalie asked, worried about scars. Skylar’s face was too precious for even a minor one.
“It looks worse than it is. With proper care, there won’t be a scar.”
“You’re too calm about this. I’m more worried than you. Did your phone get damaged too?” Natalie sat down beside her.
“It broke in the crash. I’ve already ordered a new one. It should be here
soon.”
They were alone in the ward, so they chatted easily.
Natalie’s eyes darted around the room before she casually brought up Joe. “How’s Joe treating you?”
Despite the accident, Joe’s mind was still on work. He was undeniably a
workaholic.
Skylar smiled. “He’s been great.”
Natalie noticed a shift in Skylar’s expression at the mention of Joe
A realization dawned on Natale. It was clear to Natalie that Skylar had feelings for Joe, even if others couldn’t see it
Natalie gave Skylar a teasing glance and asked, “Have you caught feelings for Joe?*
Though they were married, Skylar had always said their relationship was more like that of a roommate without spmantic feelings.
Sharing a home as mere cohabitants without any emotional bond, would feel quite empty if they had no romance feelings
Natalie thought about her own complicated situation with Jeremy, and her teasing smile faded. Forget it. I won’t complicate things for you. Anyway, I was so warned I even went to the Martin Group, and now I’m starving. Did Dr. Stone say what you can eat? Let me order us something”
Natalie, her mood lifting again, pulled out her phone to browse food delivery options
“It’s almost noon, and I’m getting hungry too. I can eat most things, but i need to avoid spicy, fired, and strmulating foods like seafood,” Skylar
replied.
Due to her injuries, spicy and greasy foods could hinder her healing, so she
had to be careful with her diet
Natalie modded. “Alright, I’ll find something for us. Not to brag, but I’m very familiar with these delivery apps and have a bunch of discount coupons *
