“Your time belongs to me now.”
Joe’s deep, seductive voice made Skylar’s heart race, tempting her to surrender completely.
Skylar swallowed hard, and her eyes drifted from his damp hair to his chiseled features that were capable
of captivating any woman,
“You-
Before Skylar could utter another word, Joe silenced her with a passionate kiss, causing her phone to slip
from her hand.
Tonight, Joe was different- he was more intense and more insistent. It was overwhelming. Property © 2024 N0(v)elDrama.Org.
With tears in her eyes, Skylar had to call Joe “darling” countless times before he finally let her rest.
Feeling satisfied, Joe held her in his arms as they fell asleep.
As she drifted off, Skylar thought about the clients on Amazon she hadn’t replied to. She hadn’t informed them that she’d get back to them tomorrow.
However, she had no energy left; she didn’t even know where her phone had fallen.
Joe had been too relentless tonight. Skylar vowed to protest with him tomorrow.
Samuel and Maisy were taking care of Sadie at the hospital tonight. Peter and Kenny would then have to take over the next day.
Meanwhile, Jeffrey had to deal with various issues at work. Initially, Kenny had been supposed to stay with Maisy but hadn’t been able to get time off.
The hospital was quiet at night, but Sadie’s room was far from peaceful. She kept crying out in pain even
when in sleep.
Throughout the whole night, Sadie’s sleep had been restless and plagued with nightmares. She kept wailing and shouting that she couldn’t live without her legs.
Sadie’s restless night took its toll on Samuel and Maisy, leaving them tense and exhausted.
“Skylar still isn’t answering her phone? Samuel asked.
Maisy nodded. “I’ve had some of my friends call her too, but she’s not picking up. She probably knows we’re trying to reach her and is avoiding us.”
The companion beds were tiny. They were in a single–room ward, so the two additional companion beds only made the space feel cramped.
The scent of disinfectant added to their discomfort.

“This is unacceptable. We need Skylar here. She’s neglected her duty as a daughter for too long. How can she ignore Mom at a time like this?
“I thought Skylar was just throwing a tantrum yesterday, but it turns out she really doesn’t care about Mom. I have to make her come.” Samuel’s voice was laced with frustration as he spoke from his narrow
bed.
Samuel was fed up with the cramped bed and was determined to make Skylar come.
Maisy was equally frustrated by Sadie’s painful cries. She needed Skylar’s help with Sadie. She also
needed Skylar to delete the video.
If Christopher hadn’t given her the video, who had?
She had heard that Christopher had been doing quite well recently. Despite losing his job, he was spending her money recklessly. Just the thought of it made her seethe.
“Samuel, I don’t think she’ll come, no matter how hard we try. She’s determined to cut ties with us. Given Mom’s condition now, she wants nothing to do with us. She doesn’t care about Mom like we do.” Maisy
sighed.
Samuel frowned deeply. “Is she out of her mind? She knows she has no blood relation to the Sullivan family, yet she sticks with them.”
Suddenly, an idea struck him. Samuel added, “Listen, Maisy, I didn’t mean you. You’re nothing like Skylar. You’re the baby sister we’ve always protected. You’re irreplaceable. You can’t go anywhere else.”
“I know. You guys are my real family. To me, you’re like my biological brothers. I don’t care about the Sullivans,” Maisy nodded earnestly.
Samuel smiled. “Exactly! Alright, let’s get some sleep. I need to come up with a way to force Skylar to step up. She has to take care of Mom.
“And Mom will need someone by her side when we head back home. No matter what, Skylar has to come
