Chapter 640


    Jenny stared at her phone. Rowan had hung up on her. Grimness settled over her.


    Why was Rowan forcing her into making a decision? He’d known that she liked Joe for a long time,


    yet he announced the news of his engagement in such a fashion.

    Jenny thought he’d never settle down. Countless women had kept himpany for wasn’t he


    keeping himself unattached because of his love for her?


    years. However,


    She bit her lips while lost in thought. Suddenly, a few women passed behind her. They were about


    her age. Jennyposed herself and walked into the building.


    Joe had taken Skr’s car to work and identally left a few documents in her car. Since he was


    free, he asked Lucas to drive him to the Gardner Group.


    As he had given Alexander a heads–up, he’d been allowed to enter the building to seek Skr out.


    However, he hadn’t told Skr about it.


    Thus, when Joe saw Skr engrossed in her work, he could hardly look away. He stood before the


    ss windows and watched her.


    However, this was the first time Joe considered Caleb a nuisance as he stood by Skr. Caleb


    didn’t even look like he’d gone through puberty. His feelings for Skr were apparent as he stared


    intently at her. Caleb was even more shameless than Joe, Skr’s legal husband.


    Joe pursed his lips.


    When Alexander hurried over after finishing his work, he caught sight of Joe ring through the


    window. He’d nearly burned a hole through the ss.


    One look at Joe and Alexander knew that he waspletely under Skr’s spell.


    In the past few days, he’d heard rumors that Edwin did not approve of Joe and Skr’s


    rtionship.


    “When Skye is absorbed in her work, she seldom pays attention to her surroundings. Indeed, she’s


    mastered what Vi has to teach her. She might even surpass Vi’s skills,” praised Alexander


    generously.


    He was implying that Skr was an excellent woman. Joe must have saved the universe in his past


    life for him to marry Skr.


    In addition, Skye had helped many of Alexander’s old friends. All of them wereing up with ways


    to return Skr’s kindness. However, not everyone would deserve such kindness.


    As elders, they had a broader perspective on life. It seemed like Skr didn’t deserve Joe due to


    her poorer background, but it was unclear who was truly taking advantage of whom.


    Joe nodded and said, “She is indeed talented.”


    Hê seldom saw this side of Skr. Now that he had seen this side of her with his own eyes, Joe had


    felt his heart skip a beat.


    Just then, Skr noticed Joe. Through the window, she felt rather disoriented, and she thought her


    sight had failed her. Content (C) N?v/elDra/ma.Org.


    Surprised, Caleb eximed, “Joe?”


    Skr put her work away and walked out.


    “I left my documents in your car,” Joe exined once she walked out.


    Skr understood. That exined why Joe had shown up. She replied, “I wasn’t paying attention to


    whether there were documents in the car. I’ll take a look there.”


    “Alright.”


    They walked toward the elevator side by side.


    2/2


    Alexander and Caleb had beenpletely ignored. They exchanged nces with each other.


    Caleb was rather jealous,ining, “Skr’s awesome. Look at Joe’s arrogant face, Grandpa.


    It’s like everyone owes him money. He doesn’t know how to treat Skr right.”


    Caleb seemed about to insist that Joe leave Skr if thetter couldn’t treat her well, and the former


    would take over and treat her like the queen she was.
