Jenny’s eyes widened. She couldn’t believe Rowan was throwing a fit at her for Skylar. All sense of logic

left her.

She complained angrily, “How dare you shout at me for Skylar? Rowan, would you dare to swear that you harbor no romantic intentions for Skylar on oath? You know she’s Joe’s wife, so you don’t have the courage to make your love evident, right?”

That was the truth. It had to be. Skylar was a bitch. She tried to prove her charm by flirting men. If not, Joe wouldn’t have investigated Jenny. She wouldn’t have lost all hope with Joe.

Rowan was floored. Jenny seemed like a stranger to him.

He’d thought she was a little princess in need of protection. Her cruel words and jealous outlook were a stark contrast to that. He didn’t know her at all.

Rowan pushed Jenny away. He said, “I don’t think I know you enough. Go see the doctor yourself. Give us some time to calm down.”

This terrified Jenny. She calmed down suddenly and grabbed Rowan’s arm in an attempt to stop him from leaving.

She stared at him with tears in her eyes and said, “Rowan, I’m sorry. I was too concerned about you. I didn’t mean to imply that you were having an affair with Skylar. I wasn’t thinking straight.”

she got into the bed, Joe enveloped her in a hug. Skylar froze. She picked up on a change in Joe’s mood. He’d placed his forehead on her shoulder as though he was a wounded creature.

Joe said nothing. He continued holding on to her.

After ten minutes, Joe explained, “Today is the anniversary of my mom’s death.”

Her anniversary?

Skylar’s heart sank. She turned around and hugged Joe. They were entwined with each other..

She could tell that Joe was down. Talia committed suicide by jumping off a building. Her death would be an eternal wound on Joe’s heart, according to what Gloria had told Skylar.

Joe had been a child–back then. He saw his mom commit suicide before his eyes. Then, he witnessed his father’s multiple one–night stands. His perfect family of three disintegrated within seconds. He could only rely on himself.

If not, his relatives would’ve descended upon him like wolves to rob him of everything he had.
