    Edwin nodded and said, “I’ll leave it to you. You don’t need to report every aspect of the n.”


    “Alright, I’ll make the necessary arrangements. Darling, you’ve got a bunch of things to handle. This is only a small matter. I’ll deal with it,” Molly assured softly.


    She massaged Edwin’s shoulders. Her gentleness and thoughtfulness were what Edwin loved most about


    her.


    Countless women had warmed his bed, but Molly was the only one he’d ever loved. He’d never regretted the decision he’d made back then. The only person he owed an apology to was Joe.


    Skr and Joe ate lunch together at a pasta restaurant opposite her office.


    Joe told Skr about the situation Jeremy was in.


    Skr said grimly, “I feel like a pair of sinister hands are approaching you from the shadows, and they will strike when you least expect it.”


    I have you. I don’t care,” Joe insisted nonchntly.


    Skr visited Pearlhall Residence frequently and spent most of her time with Joe. Skr believed that both Joe and Gloria would be fine.


    “Sometimes, I might miss out on some things. The key is to stay determined to prevent yourself from being seduced by those negative items,” Skr exined.


    Joe raised a brow and asked, “Are you saying I’m not determined enough?”


    Skr didn’t know what to say in response. Although he possessed resolve, he asionally let his instincts take over.


    Suddenly, Skr turned around.


    Joe noticed her actions and asked, “What are you looking at?”


    “Nothing,” Skr replied. After looking around, she confirmed that it was probably just her imagination No one was looking at her.


    Joe followed Skr’s gaze. His eyes darkened when he caught a glimpse of something. After a brief pause, he looked back at Skr and said, “I’ll take you back to the officeter before leaving.”


    “Alright.”


    Half an hourter<b>, </b>Joe dropped Skr back at Gardner Group.


    On the way back to the Martin Group, Joe called Paul and ordered, “Get Skr a few bodyguards to protect her. Then, check whether anyone is stalking Skr.”


    They hadn’t seen each other <i>for </i>years. Joe had forgotten how he operated. He could utilize evil tactics <i>as </i>long as it <b>got </b>the job done.


    Skr wouldn’t be able to handle such sinister darkness.


    Paul heeded Joe’s orders immediately. He said, “I’ll arrange for it now. The men will be stationed by her side within an hour.<b>” </b>


    <b>“</b>Okay.”

    Jenny left Martin Group with a grin on her face.


    On the cab, she shared the great news with her friends. She’d gotten into the Martin Group without the help of anyone else.


    She would be colleagues with Joe in the future. She didn’t know how Joe would react upon seeing her in the office.


    After telling all her close friends about <b>it</b>, she called Rowan. However, he didn’t pick up.


    Usually, Rowan picked up her calls quickly.


    Suddenly, she thought of what Rowan had said. He wasn’t going to start drawing boundaries, was he? Had he fallen out of love with her and gotten engaged? Would he ept a pre–arranged marriage? Didn’t he hate having his marriage dictated? Wasn’t he adamant about rejecting it? Content (C) N?v/elDra/ma.Org.


    When she thought of that, Jemmy gave Rowan another call. Still, no one picked up.


    Half an hourter, Rowan texted her, saying he was busy.


    Jenny found it hard to ept such a perfunctory response. She refused to give up and called him once more. This time, Rowan picked up.
