Chapter 518


    Skr looked at Joe. She wondered what else he wanted to say.


    “If you ever find yourself in a situation like this again, just say your husband is Joe Martin,” he


    stated.


    Skr didn’t know why she wanted tough, but she held it back. She didn’t expect Joe to have


    such a childish side.


    This was the first time she had encountered such an incident. If it happened again, she doubted


    anyone would believe her, even if she imed Joe as her husband.


    Their eyes met briefly. Skr noticed him look away, averting her gaze.


    “Alright,” she agreed.


    While Skr went upstairs to shower, Joe received a call from Jeremy.


    Jeremy said, “I heard what happened earlier.”

    Joe replied, “Mr. Hughes Senior has been too lenient with Andrew. Tell him Skr is my wife.”


    Jeremy asked, “You want to make Andrew pay?”


    Joe scoffed and said, “At least break his leg. He tried to sleep with my wife. I almost want to kill


    him.”


    After saying that, Joe realized he was possessive of Skr. The thought of another man coveting


    her was intolerable. Perhaps it was because they were


    Contentt bel0ngs to N0ve/lDra/ma.O(r)g!


    married.


    “Good. I’ve had enough of Andrew. This is the perfect opportunity to deal with him,” Jeremy agreed


    without hesitation.


    Joe gave a nomittal grunt.


    Just as Joe thought Jeremy was about to hang up, he spoke again. “Has Skr ever mentioned


    anything about Nath?”


    “She knows you cheated?” Joe asked in return.


    Jeremy took a drag from his cigarette. The ashtray was already filled with


    2/2


    cigarette butts. His expression grew even darker in the night. “Natalie found out. She wants a


    divorce.”


    “A divorce? Did you agree?”


    “I can’t agree to a divorce. Has Skr shared any of Nath’s thoughts with you?”


    Joe was silent for a few seconds. “Skr and I aren’t at the stage where we share secrets about


    others.”


    “Alright, I understand,” Jeremy said before hanging up.


    Joe looked at his phone’s dark screen and tossed it aside. He nced upstairs, his brows furrowing


    slightly.


    There was an inexplicable sense of gloom hanging over Joe. This was a heaviness he couldn’t quite


    shake off.


    The next day, around noon, Skr headed to a restaurant as per the time and location sent by


    Annie.


    It was a quiet, upscale Wiscadian restaurant. It was perfect for private conversations.


    Annie had also chosen this restaurant for their previous meeting. Ten minutes before Skr arrived,


    Annie sent her message. She said she was already there. When Skr walked in, she found Annie


    had already ordered their meals.
