    It was as if Joe was looking for proof that Skr loved him.


    A knock came on the door as she was about to delve further into her thoughts.


    “Mr. Martin, Mrs. Martin, lunch is ready. You may go upstairs to eat.” Paul’s voice came from the


    door.


    Skr nced at Joe, who was still on the phone and walked over to open the door.


    “Mr..Martin is still busy,” she said.


    Paul noticed she didn’t look too happy and wasn’t sure if she and Joe had argued. So, he just


    smiled and said, “Okay, I’ll let them know to serve the foodter. Is there anything in particr you’d


    like to eat, Mrs.


    Martin?”


    “No, I’m fine with anything,” Skr replied honestly.


    She really didn’t have much of an appetite at the moment. Skipping breakfast and using up all her


    energy had left her without any sense of hunger.


    Paul wisely chose not to ask further.


    Seeing Skr in such a bad mood, he figured that Joe might not be in the best mood either, so he


    needed to stay on high alert.

    “Let’s go for lunch now,” Joe said after he was done with his call. He walked toward the door,


    naturally taking Skr’s hand in his..


    As Joe approached, Paul suddenly realized that while Skr didn’t seem too happy, Joe looked


    utterly


    content.


    He appeared rxed and in good spirits, unlike someone who had just had a fever the night before.


    There was a palpable sense of inner joy radiating from him.


    What was going on? Paul couldn’t quite figure out the situation.


    Momentster, Skr and Joe arrived at the restaurant on the 26th floor.


    Since Paul had already ordered, the dishes were served as soon as they sat down.


    Skr gradually found her appetite as she ate silently, not speaking to Joe and keeping her head


    down.


    Meanwhile, Joe knew exactly why she was upset. It was his fault for being too rough earlier and not


    holding himself back. So, he had hurt her in the process.


    “It was my fault earlier,” he admitted.


    Skr was a bit surprised that he would take the initiative to apologize.


    “Is there anywhere you want to go? We can head out after lunch,” Joe continued, his voice gentle


    and full of affection.


    Skr’s anger started to subside a little. “Don’t you have anything in the afternoon?”

    “No, I just want to spend time with you,” Joe replied, his tone was patient and amodating. It


    waspletely different from the ruthless way he acted that morning.


    Skr had a few ces in mind, so she pulled her phone out and showed him some photos. “I did


    some research beforeing here, and there are a few ces I want to visit.”


    “Alright, we’ll visit all of them,” Joe said generously. He knew he had to make up for his actions


    earlier.

    Just then, someone suddenly approached and stood in front of them.


    Sensing someone nearby, Skr looked up only to see Vera standing before them.


    What a coincidence.


    The moment Joe saw Vera, his smile faded.


    “What a coincidence, I didn’t expect to see you here,” Vera said. Then, she sat down beside Skr


    without asking if she could join them.


    Skr’s face turned cold. Fortunately, she was almost done with lunch. It seemed that Joe wouldn’t


    have time to go out with her now, so she might as well go on her own.


    Dabbing the corners of her mouth with a napkin, Skr stood up. “I’m done. You two continue.”


    Vera seemed a bit surprised by Skr’s sudden departure. “Skr, are you going outter? Why


    don’t we go together?”


    Hearing this, Skr nced at Vera. It was then that she saw the ring on Vera’s hand.
