Chapter 622


    Christopher said, “Other women can’tpare to Skr. She’s the only one in my heart.”


    Christopher was deeply, obsessed.


    “Are you out of your mind? Look at how Skr had already forgotten you. See how she treated me


    before and how she treats me now?” Amelia was furious and frustrated.


    Christopher’s lips pressed tightly together. “No one can rece Skr. Mom, I only want Skr!”


    His future felt empty without her.


    “Skr is something else entirely. What kind of spell has she cast on you?” Amelia was nearly


    beside herself with rage.


    “I’ll make here back to me,” Christopher said firmly.


    As long as he could make Joe give up on Skr, he would find a way to get her back.


    It was the weekend. Janine got up early to go to the market for groceries.


    Steven hade home the night before and said he would help Janine prepare lunch.


    While picking vegetables, Janine asked, “Do you know who Skye is bringing home? It shouldn’t be


    her roommate, right? Could it be her new boyfriend?”


    Since learning that Christopher had betrayed Skr, Janine had


    been worried that Skr might be too scared to date again. She was deeply hurt by Skr’s


    suffering.


    Skr deserved someone who would treat her well.


    “It is a new boyfriend. I’ve met him before. He was still in the observation phase back then, so I


    didn’t mention it to you,” Steven revealed without hesitation.


    Since Skr was bringing Joe home, it could only mean their rtionship was serious.


    Charles had just returned. He overheard their conversation and asked Steven, “When did you meet


    him? Why didn’t Skye tell me about him?”


    Steven replied briefly, “Not long ago.”


    Charles felt jealous. He said, “I clearly don’t hold a special ce in Skr’s heart.”


    “You’re always so busy with work and filming. Skr had always preferred confiding in Steven


    anyway. Why are you jealous? Wash the vegetables. Skr is bringing her boyfriend over today, so


    everyone should behave and not scare him away.


    “Actually, scaring him a little might be good. It could make him think twice about mistreating Skr


    in the future,” Janine said impatiently to Charles.


    Charles rubbed his nose. Janine had a valid point. He wasn’t truly jealous. He just didn’t like Skr


    keeping things from him. It was simr to how he preferred talking to Steven about his issues.


    With Christopher as a precedent, he had to thoroughly vet Skr’s boyfriend this time. If her


    boyfriending today seemed unreliable, he would make sure that man stayed as far away as


    possible.

    Harvey came out of the restroom, brimming with youthful energy. He had overheard their entire


    conversation. He dered, “Anyone who mistreats my sister will face my wrath.”


    “Don’t worry. With me and Steven here, no one will be able to bully Skye.” Charles assured him.


    The three men in their family all had strong personalities. Previously, they hadn’t known what the


    Williams family and Christopher had done to Skr. Hence, they hadn’t protected her


    well.


    But that wouldn’t happen again.


    They would make sure Skr was well protected.


    Janine continued chatting with Steven while preparing the meal. What do you think of this guy? How


    does hepare to Christopher?”


    Steven paused his work and replied, “There’s noparison.”


    “What?” Janine was startled to hear that Skr’s new boyfriend was iparable to Christopher.


    “Mom, you misunderstood. I meant Christopher can’tpare to him. You’ll understand after


    meeting him,” Steven said.


    Steven believed no mother–inw could resist Joe as a son–inw. Many families in Jipsburg


    desired Joe as a match for their daughters.


    Since Joe and Skr’s rtionship began, Steven had closely monitored news about Joe. The


    more he learned, the more confident he became in Joe’s trustworthiness.


    Janine’s worries eased. She let out a sigh of relief. “That’s good.”


    Soon after, Skr and Joe arrived at Yancey Residence.


    On the way, Skr had briefed Joe about her family’s situation.


    Joe was already familiar with it, but he listened attentively as Skr borated.

    Harvey opened the door for them.


    When he saw Joe, the usually confident teenager was momentarily taken aback. “You’re my sister’s


    boyfriend.”
