Skr nodded. "Being able to think like that means Hector''s moved on."
"It was nothing much. What man hasn''t had a few injuries? If you haven''t broken a bone twice, you''re not a real man. Compared to me, his injuries are minor," Caleb said with a slight lift of his chin, boasting a bit.
He wasn''t happy seeing Skrplimenting someone else. He had made a lot of progress recently too.
Skr could see Caleb''s thoughts and managed a smile.
She said, "You''re right. You''re the bravest young man I''ve ever met, and you''re also very eager to learn. When you need to be steady, you can definitely hold your ground." "That''s right!"Copyright by N?v/elDrama.Org.
From that moment on, Caleb worked energetically for the rest of the day as if he had been given a boost of adrenaline. His proactive attitude astonished many of his colleagues.
Later, Alexander discreetly asked Skr during a break, "Did something go wrong with him today?"
Caleb had always found ways to ck off, but today, he was unusually diligent and eager-unlike his usual
self.
Skrughed. "Maybe he''s just grown up."
Alexander nodded thoughtfully.
When a man said he was grown up, he could change overnight. His attitude toward things could shift dramatically.
Alexander felt a pang of sadness as he thought about how Caleb had finally matured.
Half an hour before the end of the workday, Gloria called Skr. She asked her toe to the Pearlhall
Residence after work.
Concerned about Gloria''s health, Skr went straight to the Pearlhall Residence after finishing work.
When she arrived, she saw Joe was also there.
He had probably just arrived. He was still standing with a ss of water in his hand, taking a sip. When he saw her enter, he looked over at her. Their eyes met for a brief moment.
Skr went over to Gloria and took a seat beside her.
"Skye, take a look at these wedding dresses and see if there''s anything you like," Gloria said, handing Skr a stack of photos.
The photos were of various wedding dresses. Each wedding dress looked beautifully designed. No. woman could resist the allure of a wedding dress.
Skr had once fantasized about what she would look like wearing one herself.
"Wedding dresses?" Skr was a bit puzzled. She wondered why Gloria was showing her these wedding dresses.
Seeing Skr''s confused
expression, Gloria chuckled and
said, "You and Joe have been married for a while, but you never had a proper wedding. None of your friends or family even know you''re married. Content belongs to

"I was thinking of arranging a wedding for you two. Maybe I could discuss the details with your mother in the next few days if she''s avable."
"A wedding!" Skr was taken aback. Why a wedding now?
She and Joe were nning to get divorced, so a wedding was out of the question. They had even signed a contract back then to keep their marriage a secret.
Joe saw the surprise on Skr''s
face and frowned slightly. He said, "Even if we start nning now, it''ll take at least a year to set a date. It''s the perfect time to start picking out a wedding dress."
"Alright, I''ll take a look at the wedding dresses," Skr replied. She noticed Joe''s frown and realized Gloria probably didn''t know about Joe''s desire to divorce her.
So, Gloria was happily nning their wedding, unaware of the truth.
Not wanting to disappoint her, Skr carefully examined the wedding dresses.
Gloria smiled warmly and said, "Pick out a few, and I''ll have them sent to the Gxy Vi. You can try them

one by one. If none of them feel
right, we can bring in a designer from abroad. These wedding dresses are one-of-a-kind pieces from various designers.
"Since they''ve been sent to me, no one else had worn them. For your wedding, the wedding dress must be truly unique.
Skr felt a sting in her nose. Gloria was so good to her. She suddenly felt guilty about continuing to deceive her.
