Chapter 329


    Joe’s tone softened involuntarily. “Go ahead and eat first.”


    “Okay.”


    Skr settled onto the hospital bed while eyeing the chicken soup hungrily. “Let’s eat together.”


    Pau brought coffee and a sandwich for Joe since he had already eaten breakfast at the hotel. The


    ward was quiet, with only the faint sound of Skr and Joe eating.


    Ten minutes passed, and Skr had already finished the entire bowl of chicken soup.


    Suddenly, there was a knock on the door. Thinking it was the doctor, Skr was taken aback when


    a woman in a hospital gown appeared.


    The woman looked around her age. But she was a bit slender, with the hospital gown hanging


    loosely on her. She had a pretty and endearing look, with pure, sparkling eyes that immediately


    evoked sympathy.


    The woman seemed like a pure and lovely person.


    “Ms. Scott!” Paul eximed, clearly surprised to see Jenny Scott.


    He nced at Joe, who seemed unfazed, almost as if he had expected Jenny Scott’s arrival..


    “Are you guys having breakfast? I hope I’m not interrupting,” Jenny asked cautiously.


    Joe replied calmly, “Not at all.”


    Skr nced at Joe, then at Jenny standing at the door.


    Suddenly, a gut feeling told her that Jenny might be Joe’s type. She remembered hearing a gentle


    voice on the phone–it had probably beenJenny.


    “I’m Jenny Scott, Joe’s godsister. Joe mentioned you to me before. And now that you two are


    married, can I call you Skye?” Jenny smiled warmly as she addressed Skr.


    Skr smiled and nodded, “Of course.”


    Godsister? She hadn’t heard Joe mention Jenny before.

    “Skye, you’re the most gorgeous woman I’ve seen among all the women’I’ve met!” Jenny gazed at


    Skr’s


    face, somewhat mesmerized.


    Skr’s beauty was striking. Her looks were absolutely stunning yet intimidating, which could easily


    make


    others feel inferior.


    Jenny pursed her lips.


    Skr often receivedpliments on her looks, but hearing one from another beauty made her


    smile even wider. “You’re really pretty too,” she replied.


    Jenny’s eyes crinkled with a smile. “Thank you. I heard from Joe yesterday that you had


    gastroenteritis


    and a fever. How are you feeling now?”


    “I feel much better now. No symptoms at the moment,” Skr replied with a smile.


    “That’s good to hear. Just take it easy.” Jenny then nced at Joe and noticed the slight redness in


    his eyes. Concerned, she asked, “Did you not sleepst night, Joe? Your eyes look red. Do you


    need to rest now?”


    Joe’s gaze softened. “I slept a few hours. It’s not a big deal.”


    Skr watched their interaction, and it seemed like they were siblings, but not quite. She’d never


    seen


    Joe so gentle with other women before.


    Previously, Annie had imed to have known Joe for many years, which should have made them


    familiar, but Joe had always been distant and cold toward her.


    It was clear that Joe didn’t hold much regard for anyone and wasn’t particrly enthusiastic about


    matters of love and romance.


    Yet with Jenny, he appeared rxed and gentle.


    Skr took a sip of water from her cup. She convinced herself that Joe’s private life was none of


    her concern, and she shouldn’t let unnecessary curiosity get the better of her.


    “I have


    mask in my room for rxation. I’ll go get it for you. Joe, you really need to pay more. a great eye


    attention to your insomnia issues,” Jenny said seriously with a frown.
