Chapter 144


    Joe: “Tell Annie not to covet someone she shouldn’t.”


    Rowan was shocked to read his message. He replied, “You have no feelings for Annie at all? You’ve


    been single for so many years, isn’t it for her sake? Just tell me what your rtionship with Skr


    is! Your attitude towards her is too unusual,”


    Unfortunately, Joe ignored the questions.


    Rowan never gossips and is uninterested in other people’s affairs. In Jipsburg, many would love to


    gossip about him, so he didn’t need to gossip about others. If he wanted to know something, he just


    asked


    around, and the truth would unveil itself.


    Joe was d


    different. People wanted to know about Joe’s romantic scandals. But without his cooperation,


    an investigation wasn’t an option, as he would surely find out.


    “No need to rush. I don’t believe Joe can keep his secrets forever.”


    Annie got upte. She had barely sleptst night. After returning from the club, shey in bed with


    a


    restless mind..


    She really wanted to know what the rtionship between Skr and Joe was. She asked Rowan,


    but he


    didn’t know, either. It was his first time meeting Skr,

    Seeing Skr’s stunningly captivating face, Annie felt threatened for the first time. She had just


    gotten out


    of bed when a message from Rowan popped up on her phone.


    Rowan: “Don’t set your sights on Joe anymore. He just told me to tell you not to covet what you


    shouldn’t.”


    Annie’s face turned pale, and she clutched her phone tightly. She felt that Joe’s words were sharp


    and


    cruel.


    In the hospital. Christopher stood at the billing counter. He was lost in thought.


    The money in his bank ount was far from enough to cover the surgery fees. His mother’s


    condition.


    was critical and urgent. He wondered where he could get hundreds of thousands of dors in such


    a time.


    If he hadn’t lost his job, perhaps he could have had a bonus of two hundred thousand dors by the


    end


    of the year. Although he had gone to job interviews, there was no follow–up for some reason.


    Given his educational background, his degree, his field, and his abilities, it was bizarre that so


    manypanies had interviewed him, and none had hired him.


    He thought Skr had be heartless and definitely wouldn’t help him again. For some reason,


    he felt that if Skr were willing to help, she could definitelye up with the surgery money.


    But… He never thought Skr could be so cold to him.

    He picked up his phone and called Maisy. “Maisy, lend me five hundred thousand dors, please.
