Chapter 858
Skylar didn’t think much of it. After all, so many of their friends were at the club. But she hadn’t expected Joe to come back so early the next morning. He was a bit drunk, stumbling as if he were walking on
clouds.
“Are you drunk?” she asked.
Joe, who rarely drank so much that his steps would falter, cupped her face with both hands. He leaned in, pressing a hard kiss to her lips, which were squished into a pout.
Skylar hadn’t expected this from him. “What are you doing?” she asked.
“I want to sleep with you,” Joe said, his tone heavy. He kissed her again before she could respond.
Skylar’s strength was no match for Joe’s. He was like an unyielding wall, impossible to break through.
Her rationality shattered into pieces as Joe kissed her hard.
Joe knew her body all too well. His hands seemed to set her ablaze, igniting every inch of her skin.
Joe went wild when he was drunk. They spent the entire morning in a frenzy in bed. The sheets were left in disarray, and several used condoms littered the floor.
It took Skylar a long time to feel connected to her body again. She wasn’t sure how long she had been in a daze after everything stopped.
Staring at Joe’s sleeping face beside her, with his arm still draped over her, she felt disoriented.
They had been so wild just now. He had called her name multiple times. He was focused and full of emotion as if his madness was all for her.
Gradually, as she regained her strength, she gently slipped from under his arm.
Skylar felt sticky and uncomfortable. She couldn’t stand it any longer.
After a refreshing shower, she changed her clothes and headed downstairs.
Joe had come back just when she was getting ready for work. She didn’t have time to ask for leave, and her phone was still in her bag.
When she finally checked it, she saw several missed calls and messages from Caleb and Alexander asking about her whereabouts. Her face flushed with embarrassment.
She quickly called Caleb. “Caleb, could you help me take a day off? I’ve been feeling unwell and have been asleep until now.”
Thankfully, Caleb didn’t ask too many questions. He just told her to rest up and see a doctor if necessary.
The wildness of the morning had left her feeling something she couldn’t quite put into words.
As she went to the fridge to find something to eat, hoping to regain some energy, she heard a noise at the
front door. Têxt belongs to NôvelDrama.Org.
She immediately checked the front door surveillance footage.
To her surprise, Vera was standing outside. She had been discharged from the hospital.
Skylar opened the door to let Vera in. However, Vera stood at the door without entering. Instead, she waved the bag she was holding toward the camera.
She wondered if she was here to drop something off.
Seeing this, Skylar stepped outside.
Vera’s smile faltered for a moment when she saw that the person coming out was Skylar.
In the past few days, Denton and Patricia had been reminding her that Skylar was not the ordinary girl she had imagined. Skylar had her own unique qualities, and if Joe was really keeping Skylar at Galaxy Villa, it could mean he might truly have genuine feelings for her.
Vera had said she wasn’t worried and acted like she was confident in herself.
