Chapter 266


    Annie was furious and called out again, “Skr!”


    Maintaining her smile, Skr replied, “Ms. Silver, is there anything else?”


    “I just hope you won’t regret this,” Annie knew she couldn’t waste more time with Skr. Joe might


    arrive any moment now.


    She turned and got into her car. As the car started, she rolled down the window and


    looked back at Skr.


    “Skr, you will regret this.”


    She didn’t believe Joe would like Skr for long. He was probably only interested in


    her because of her looks.


    “I can tell you right now, I won’t regret it. But I can’t say the same for you. I’m usually quite


    easygoing, but two can y the game in the face of someone pretentious.


    Later, when I see Mr. Martin, I’ll make sure to tell him about thister,” Skr said


    with a mischievous smile, her eyebrows raised arrogantly.


    Annie gripped the steering wheel tightly and urged, “Let’s discuss this some other time. I didn’t


    mean to offend you with my words earlier.”


    Skr smiled. Did Annie think she was a fool?


    Annie took a deep breath, feeling a bit panicked.


    “There’s no need toin to Joe about this. He’s very busy with work, and bringing these petty


    squabbles to him will only make him dislike you, which won’t do


    you any good.”


    “He says he likes it when I act clingy,” Skr replied nonchntly. She wasn’t sure what type of


    woman Joe liked, but she was certain he didn’t like women like Annie.


    Annie’s face turned red with anger. She knew Skr was doing it on purpose. No


    man likes a clingy woman, let alone Joe.


    Over the years, many women have tried everything to get his attention, yet he hasn’t shown interest


    in them. Could he really prefer Skr’s reckless and clingy nature?


    Seeing Annie wavering, Skr chuckled inwardly. Did she fall for her offhanded remarks so easily?


    “Anyway, I’ll apologize first. Skr, we could try to be friends. Being friends with me


    would bring you many benefits.”


    Annie’s tone changed, bing as gracious and poised as the TV host persona sher disyed on


    her show, the kind of personality that easily wins people’s favor.


    Annie’s ability to switch personalities was impressive.


    “There’s no need to be friends. I don’t want to be taken advantage of. Please leave


    you’re done. There’s not enough parking space here,” Skr said with a smile.


    Did Annie think she could be easily fooled?


    “Fine!” Annie gripped the steering wheel tightly, her long nails leaving deep marks.


    She sped off, leaving the parking spot.


    As the car drove away, Skr’s smile faded. She knew that having an enemy like. Annie would


    cause her many troubles in the future. But it was safer than having her


    as a friend.


    “When did you understand me so well?” a voice suddenly asked behind her.


    Skr turned to see Joe. When did he arrive?


    Joe’s lips curved up slightly, waiting for her response.


    Skr couldn’t manage a smile. “How much did you hear?”


    “Almost everything,” Joe replied honestly. He had arrived and witnessed Skr arguing with Annie,


    leaving her speechless. It was his first time seeing the usually


    Skr felt like she was making a fool of herself in front of Joe more and moretely. Any


    exnation now seemed pointless..


    “We haven’t been married long, and you already know me better than I know you. Are you falling for


    me?” Joe whispered as he stepped closer, closing the distance. between them.


    Skr was startled by hisst remark.


    “Am 1 that lucky? Did I guess your preference? If I sold this story to the press, I could
