Joe, Skylar, Jenny cheerfully greeted them.
Joe nodded. Skylar smiled and said, “Ms. Scott, you seem to be recovering well.”
“It’s all thanks to Camilla. She has taken good care of me. How come you two have time to come and see me today? Didn’t you go out to have fun?” Jenny casually scrutinized the two, then smiled subtly.

“He had a meeting today, so I went to the hotel’s aquarium for a few hours.” Skylar responded truthfully. NôvelD(ram)a.ôrg owns this content.
Jenny asked in a surprised tone, “Skylar, you went alone?”
Skylar smiled. “Yeah.”
Jenny suddenly felt the gloom that had clouded her heart dissipate. “Joe is indeed usually too busy. Skylar, don’t be angry at Joe,” she said,
Angry?
Skylar wondered how Jenny knew that she was angry when she answered her with a smile.
“Joe used to be very busy as well before. Sometimes when we had meals together, he would rush to the airport and go on business trips at whims, Jenny continued.
Skylar smiled politely. “Yeah, work is indeed important.”
Jenny smiled and said, “Skylar, you might not know this, but no matter where Joe appears, people will be subconsciously afraid of him. Once, several of my high school classmates saw–Joe. He only took a glance at them, but then one of them was so scared that he had a nightmare that night.
“The next day, he complained to me that the way Joe looked at him was as if warning him that if he got just a little closer to me, Joe would strangle him. I still remember that classmate’s pale face when he spoke to me.”
Was he that jealous?
Skylar glanced at Joe. Was he unhappy to see male classmates with Jenny? Skylar was a little confused now. What exactly did he think about Jenny?
“That classmate of yours must have thought too much. I’m like this with everyone.” Joe’s tone was naturally cold. But now, he spoke at the opportune moment, causing Jenny’s smile to stiffen slightly.
Jenny quickly recovered her smile. “Yeah, but my classmate didn’t know. Fortunately, after I explained it to him the next day, he got the peace of mind to go to school. Otherwise, he wouldn’t dare to go.”
“Skylar, what did you think of Joe when you first saw him?” Jenny asked.
Skylar recalled the first time she saw Joe. At that time, she was only thinking about that trash, Christopher. The first thing she thought of about Joe was probably…
“He’s more handsome than a movie star, very captivating.”
Joe’s thin lips curled up as he glanced at Skylar and asked “So, you wanted to marry me at first sight?”
No way! If she hadn’t been reborn, she and him would be like two parallel lines that would never intersect
However, with the presence of other people now, she smiled brightly and said, “Indeed I did have such a bold idea at that time.”
Jenny secretly clenched her hands. She stared at Joe and asked, “What about you, Joe? Did you also think of marrying Skylar at first sight?”
Skylar guessed that he would deny it. He only married her because of Gloria’s request. There was no love at first sight between them.
“Yeah,” Joe answered simply. But the simplicity was clear enough.
Jenny’s mood instantly seemed a bit wilted. She smiled forcefully and glanced at her phone, masking her true emotions. “So, it turns out that you two fell in love with each other at first sight.”
She thought Joe married Skylar only because of Gloria’s request. And that he treated Skylar well also only for Gloria’s sake..
However, she clearly saw the undercurrents in their eyes as they looked at each other, the obvious deep affection in their gaze.
Only couples who had feelings for each other would look at each other with a gleam in their eyes.
The more Jenny thought about it, the more her heart grew uncomfortable. “Joe, Skylar, have you two had lunch? Should I ask Camilla to bring some lunch back from the cafeteria?”
