Chapter 850


    Skr never thought Pam, who she held in the highest regard, would speak to her in such a


    stern


    manner.


    This wasn’t a discussion. Pam was forcing her into this.


    Vera felt as though her arrogance had shattered at that moment. When she thought of Skr and


    Joe, she felt extremely helpless.


    For some reason, she recalled Joe’s introduction of Skr in the hospital lift. He called Skr his


    wife.


    Wife…


    Were they married?


    “Do you hear me? When Pam caught Vera daydreaming, she screamed at her angrily. She


    seemed not to care about what Pam was saying.


    Vera woke from her stupor and promised, “I understand the severity of the situation. I know what to


    do. I won’t let misfortune continue eating into our family.”


    Her guarantee satisfied Pam. She said, “Alright.”

    Half an hour after dinner, Skr’s phone rang yet again. Vera called her.


    She had been taking a stroll with Joe. The sky was darkening, and a light breeze caressed them.


    Skr picked up and asked, “Have you made your decision, Ms. Ruell?”


    Vera sounded very calm. She said, “My attitude toward you was uneptable. I apologize. I’m


    begging you to help us out of this crisis.”


    Although she hadn’t said much, it was evident Vera was giving in to her.


    Skr wasn’t an unforgiving person. She agreed and said, “I’ll send you my ount details.”


    “Alright.”


    After hanging up, Skr turned to look at Joe, who’d been staring at her. She said, “They agreed to


    my conditions. I’m heading to the Grimwood Residence now. You…”


    Before Skr finished, Joe said, “I’ll go with you.”


    Skr opened her mouth to say something. However, she realized she wasn’t the one who needed


    to worry about their rtionship getting discovered. That person was Joe. Thus, she said nothing.


    Vera transferred 20 million to Skr. Her expression turned colder when the transaction went


    through sessfully.


    “I’ve never suffered such humiliation. Skr, you’d better be able to help us out of our crisis. If not,


    I’ll make sure you regret pissing me off!“,


    Vera bit her lip.


    Initially, she was merely disgusted by Skr. Now, it had turned into full–on loathing.


    Then, she asked her doctor whether she could leave the hospital for a few hours. He gave her the


    green light. She immediately changed and headed to Grimwood Residence.


    Skr and Joe arrived at Grimwood Residence shortly after. Denton and his daughter, Patricia


    Ruell, were waiting for them.


    Patricia was surprised to see that Joe had arrived with Skr. As she led them in, she scanned


    them covertly.


    All of the Ruells had a simr expectation for Vera and Joe to get together. They would be engaged


    soon. Yet, Skr had turned up with Joe.


    Before today, they had no idea who Skr was. What they’d heard about Skr indicated that she


    was capable and highly esteemed.


    Now that they saw her in the flesh, she was young and gorgeous, perhaps even more so than


    Vera.


    However, Vera was shier. Although Skr was young, she was discreet and humble.
