Chapter 352


    Out of habit, Skr didn’t avoid him and even moved closer. After a while, Joe finally fell asleep


    while holding Skr, His breathing gradually settled into a calm and steady rhythm.


    The next morning, Joe Informed Skr that he had a three–hour video conference scheduled for


    the day. Upon hearing that, Skr decided she would visit the hotel’s aquarium.


    Skr walked out, bag in hand, while Joe was in the middle of his video conference. She closed


    the door gently. Joe nced at the door, then returned his focus to the screen.


    After getting off the elevator, Skr followed the staff’s instructions and headed to the aquarium.


    She had rarely visited the aquarium since she was a child. Thest time might have been during a


    summer vacation in high school when Steven took them there once. The tickets were too expensive

    them back then.


    She had even less time after she went to college as she had to work part–time for her tuition fees


    and


    living expenses.


    After entering the aquarium, she took several photos and sent them all to their family WhatsApp


    group. Several of her family members saw it and praised her for her photography skills, telling her to


    have fun.


    The hotel’s aquarium was huge. By the time she finished strolling around, three hours had already


    passed.


    Joe called when Skr was heading back to their hotel after leaving the aquarium.


    “I’m going to the hospital. Are youing?” he asked.


    Thinking that they were returning to Jipsburg the next day and should visit Jenny before they left,


    Skr replied, “Okay, I’ll wait for you in front of the hotel.”


    She waited for a few minutes before Joe came out. Upon seeing him, Skr handed him a sausage


    and


    asked, “Do you want it?”


    When she came out of the aquarium, she saw a stand selling grilled sausages. They were grilled to


    perfection and had a wonderful aroma, so she bought two right away. They were still hot.


    Joe looked at the sausage and replied faintly, “I don’t like it. You eat.”


    Skr nodded and began eating. She thought that this kind of sausage was more suited to ordinary


    people like her. It made sense for Joe, ustomed to a life of luxury, to dislike it.


    Since returning from the sea yesterday, his behavior had be even more perplexing than


    before. Fortunately, Skr wasn’t one to dwell on trivial matters. She simply acted as if she hadn’t


    noticed


    anything unusual.


    Their car arrived in about two minutes. Skr, still eating her sausage, asked Joe, “Can you wait for


    just a


    couple more minutes? I want to finish this sausage first.”


    “Okay.” Joe remained standing beside her and didn’t get into the car first.


    Skr ate quickly and finished the rest of the sausages in just a few bites. “I am done.”


    She signaled to Joe that they could get into the car. Once inside, they sat in silence, creating an


    unexpectedly quiet atmosphere.


    Lucas, their driver, had been picking them up these days and noticed that they were quite


    harmonious. However, in the current atmosphere, the tension between them was palpable.


    He didn’t dare to speak at all.


    They arrived at the hospital inplete silence.


    Jenny was on the phone when they entered


    the ward, probably chatting with her ssmate. Upon seeing them, she immediately finished up the


    conversation with her ssmate and hung up the phone.
