Chapter 186


    Skr hurriedly sent another WhatsApp message. “Joe, don’t get too close to Marcus. He will bring


    trouble to you! I’ll exin the situation to you in detail when you have the time”


    However, both WhatsApp messages went unanswered. Skr was restless as she waited for his


    reply. She didn’t turn on the sleep mode on her phone for fear of missing Joe’s call or message


    Sometimeter, she woke up groggily to the sound of her phone ringing Without dy, she


    answered the call.


    “I just got off the ne and saw your message.” Joe’s voice came through.


    Skr immediately became alert. “Are you and Marcus on the same flight?”


    “Yes, we are.” Joe nced at Marcus, who was beside him.


    This chance encounter was an opportunity for Marcus to get closer to Joe. Marcus needed to do


    this because the Lennon family was facing some problems recently.


    Skr took a deep breath. “Listen to me. He’s wearing a thumb ring. That ring is nothing good. He’s


    a womanizer and changes girlfriends frequently. Plus, with that sinister ring, he must be afflicted


    with


    something


    “Don’t get too close to him! He’s your friend, so his energy will definitely affect you. It might even


    endanger your life.”


    Joe raised an eyebrow discreetly. Then, he nced at Paul, whose forehead was red and swollen


    after identally bumping it against a hard surface.


    Finally, his gaze fell on his shoes. There was a smidge of orange juice on his bespoke leather


    shoes. There was even a scratch from a broken ss


    There had been a severe turbulence earlier. The ss in the flight attendant’s hand fell. Paul, who


    was about to get up to go to the washroom, fell down as well. Sitting behind them, Marcus spat out


    blood.

    In that short one–hour flight, chaos erupted in the cabin. But right now, Marcus just looked a little


    pale and seemed fine otherwise. His condition didn’t stop him from being physically intimate with


    the beautiful woman beside him.


    Joe felt that he should learn to believe in things that didn’t seem logical at a nce sometimes, or it


    could be that he was more willing to trust Skr now.


    “Are you worried about me?” Joe asked with a half–smile. He quickened his pace and distanced


    himself


    from Marcus.


    Skr was momentarily stunned to hear his teasing tone as he said that. She answered honestly, “I


    don’t want Grandma to suffer the pain of having her descendant pass away before her.”


    Another reason was that she didn’t want to cite widowhood as the reason for when she had to get


    a


    divorce.


    Joe smirked with a slightly amused look in his eyes. “It’ste now. Go to sleep.”


    “Okay, good night.”


    As Marcus walked, he noticed Joe walking faster, as if he had forgotten all about him. He


    immediately hurried to catch up. The beautiful woman beside him struggled to keep up in her high


    heels.


    “Mr. Martin, can I hitch a ride with you to the hotel? My ride broke down on the way,” Marcus asked


    upon


    catching up.


    Paul deduced that Marcus had something to discuss with Joe. After all, they were acquaintances


    who had known each other for some time. They weren’t close friends, but Marcus frequently


    appeared in Joe’s


    social circles.


    Suddenly, his forehead started to hurt. He reached up to massage it and felt the big bump, thinking


    to himself that no wonder it hurt so much.


    This was a first for him. After so many years of flying and spending almost as much time on nes


    as he was at home, this was the first time Paul had been so unlucky.


    “It’s inconvenient for me,” Joe refused stoically without giving any reason.
