Chapter 331


    Joe’s expression remained unchanged as he replied, “Alright.”


    The next moment, Paul returned. “I just spoke with the doctor. You can be discharged. I’ve already


    picked up your medication.”


    After that, Skr left the hospital and went back to the hotel.


    Originally, Joe had also gotten in the car with her, ready to return to the hotel to rest. But Jenny


    called and


    said she felt unwell. So, Joe returned to the hospital, and Paul was left in charge of taking Skr


    back.


    It took about 20 minutes to reach the hotel. After dropping Skr off, Paul rushed back to the


    hospital. It


    seemed that Jenny’s condition might be urgent..


    Skr then took a shower andid down to rest. She pulled out her phone to chat with Natalie.


    Ever since that night, Natalie had been unusually quiet over the past couple of days.


    Now that Skr had time to settle down, she realized something seemed off with Natalie. Natalie


    would


    usually call or text the next day if she was with Jeremy.


    Skr sent a photo she had taken in the hospital to Natalie and wrote, “Who knew that I’d end up in


    the hospital with gastritis on this trip?” She then added a crying emoji.


    Within a minute, Natalie called her. “What’s going on with you? I don’t remember you ever being in


    such bad shape. We used to eat and drink recklessly together, yet you never had stomach issues.


    How did you end up with gastritis in Korel City?”


    Natalie had probably thought of the mistreatment Skr had faced in the Williamses and continued,


    “I was against you donating blood to Maisy from the start. Every time I see her, I get ufortable.


    “She’s a maniptive bitch. But you’d just returned to the Williamses and wanted to get along with


    them, so I couldn’t stop you. Now, I regret it so much. I should’ve stopped you then.”


    Skrughed and said, “I regret it too. At that time, I was too foolish to believe the Williamses


    would appreciate my sacrifice. In the end, it was all for nothing.”


    “Forget it. It’s not toote to realize that now. By the way, how’s it going? Any romantic encounters?


    “With your looks, men should be lining up for you. Elliot asked about you the other day. He seems


    to have fallen for you at first sight. Interested?” Natalie suggested, turning into a matchmaker.


    Hearing Natalie’s usual cheerful tone, Skr felt relieved. “There is no need for romantic


    encounters. I’m a married woman and need to stay faithful. Besides, romance isn’t really my thing.”


    Skr said calmly.


    Now, Skr’s rtionship with Joe was just right. They satisfied each other physically, their marital


    rtionship was respectful, and they usually didn’t interfere with each other’s work,


    If Joe ever wanted a divorce one day, she could walk away without pain. Skr believed Joe


    probably felt


    the same way.


    For once, Natalie didn’t argue with Skr about romance. Instead, she sighed and said, “Married?


    Are you still caught up in the act? Are you seriously telling me that Joe Martin’s your husband?”


    “I’d never lie to you. Joe Martin really is my husband,” Skr replied.


    “If he’s really your husband, I’ll go to a bar and do a pole dance!” Natalie eximed.


    “You don’t have to go that far…”


    “If you can marry Joe, why can’t I do a pole dance?”


    “If Mr. Hughes finds out you’re doing a pole dance, he’ll probably lock you up at home.” Skr


    recalled thest time Jeremy had picked up a drunk Natalie at the bar. He’d looked scary at that


    time. He might’ve strictly forbidden Natalie from going to a bar again.


    Natalie paused for a few seconds and then said, “I don’t care. No one can stop me from doing what


    I


    want.”


    Since they were separated by a phone and were hundreds of miles away, Skr didn’t sense the


    slight


    unease in Natalie’s tone. Exclusive ? material by N?(/v)elDrama.Org.
