    Gloria noticed Skr and Joe exchanging nces.


    When Gloria realized howte it was, she urged them, “It’s gettingte. You two should go upstairs and get some rest. I’m feeling tired myself.”


    When she tried on clothes earlier, Edgar mentioned how the two seemed to have developed feelings for


    each other. Gloria had some doubts at first. But seeing how Joe looked at Skr, there was something


    unusual about it.


    Gloria noticed traces of affection.


    Sharing a bed at their age was bound to create a certain intimacy. Would their connection remain truly


    tonic?


    This was the time for desires to heighten, and it would seem a waste if nothing happened after spending


    the night together.


    After Skr and Joe went upstairs, Skr took a shower first, as usual. When she finished, Joe went in for


    his turn.


    It was awkward for them to share the same bed.


    Skr checked her Amazon store after lying down like she usually would her nightly routine. Orders had been pouring these past two days, likely due to positive word–of–mouth.


    Her store was making thousands of dors in just a day.


    She could consider making a down payment for a house soon. Then, Janine and her brothers could move

    Skr thought of how they could live under a roof as a family in the future–having meals together and waiting for her brothers to start their own families.


    Thinking about these made her feel happy.


    Joe emerged from the bathroom and saw Skr smiling brightly. He wondered what had made her so happy


    “Feeling happy?” Joe asked.


    Skr nodded happily and showed him her phone screen. “This is my online store. It’s been making me


    thousands of dors recently.”


    After a while, she could sell some of the genuine antiques she bought. This could prevent many antique


    lovers from being cheated.


    “That’s great. Congrattions.”


    He seemed to be influenced by Skr’s happiness. In his loungewear and after showering, he appeared less stern and more pure.

    Skr was also more rxed and said, “You’ve been busy these days, and I haven’t had the chance to treat you to a meal. When you have time, let me know two hours in advance. I’ll prepare a sumptuous.


    dinner for you at home.”


    She almost forgot about it until she thought of paying the down payment for a house, which led her to the memory of depositing millions of dors in the bank a few days ago.


    “Tomorrow night then,” Joe said <b>as </b>hey down.


    “Tomorrow I’m going to my mom’s ce. We’ve nned to have dinner together at a hotel. I’m really sorry. How about the night after tomorrow?” Skr asked.


    Joe had no objections. “Sure. You rarely talk about your family. Do you mind telling me about them?*


    Joe suddenly wanted to know more about Skr–not about how she was bullied in the Williams family but about her upbringing with Janine and her family.


    “I have two older brothers. Steven is my big brother, and Charles is my second brother. There’s also my younger brother, Harvey. He is preparing for the college entrance examination.Exclusive ? material by N?(/v)elDrama.Org.


    “They’re the best family anyone could ask for. My mom never resorted to physical punishment, even when I was a naughty <b>child</b>.


    “My brothers absolutely doted on me. We may not have had a father figure, but love was nevercking. My eldest brother has always been fiercely protective…


    Perhaps it was due to the serene ambience that Skr slowly began talking about herself.


    Her heart felt truly calm discussing her family, which, truth be told, was quite ordinary.
