No one could hold a candle to Paul.
After a few seconds, Skylar replied, "If he's got a cold, he should get that checked at the hospital." She sounded extremely calm.
Paul had no idea what was going on. He said, "Uh… Mrs. Martin, would you like to come over and take a look? Mr. Martin doesn't like seeing a doctor whenever he's sick. He doesn't like eating medicine, nor does he listen to me. After all, he pays me, and I need to abide by his rules. You're more effective than me in this aspect."
"He doesn't listen to what I tell him either. You can ask Ms. Ruell to help. I'm still busy. I can't speak now, so I'll be hanging up," replied Skylar.
The beeping noises after Skylar hung up floored Paul.
Her attitude… This was a ginormous issue!
They hadn't cut ties completely, had they? Skylar had even mentioned Vera. It couldn't be… Did they have a falling out because of Vera?
Was Skylar less important to Joe than Vera?
This…
After calling Paul, he was even more confused.
If Joe cared for Vera, he should've been happy that he and Skylar had fallen out. At least he could have explained his behavior to Vera.
However, Joe didn't look happy at all.
Things were difficult now. The most glaring issue was that Paul couldn't get a read on Joe.
…
Skylar's mind wandered after ending the call with Paul.
Caleb had found someone to book the plane tickets.
When Skylar came back, she looked a little pale. He immediately asked, "Skylar, what are you thinking about? Are you feeling under the weather?"
She seemed alright while he walked out. Why had Skylar's expression changed so drastically after he walked out? It had only been ten minutes.
