    Skr said, “I haven’t eaten either. I’ll go make dinner.”


    Joe watched as she efficiently pulled ingredients from the fridge and started cooking in the kitchen.


    Before he realized it, he was captivated by her movements and unable to look away. Skr quickly


    prepared two dishes.


    Instead of pasta, she made two servings of beef and lentil soup. They ate in silence, both lost in


    their thoughts.


    After finishing their meal, Joe cleaned up the dishes before turning to Skr for a conversation. She


    looked at him, unsure of what to say.


    After a few minutes of silence, Joe finally spoke, “I’ve been really busy at work these past few days.


    Let’s go to the courthouse next Monday to finalize the divorce.”


    Skr was momentarily speechless. Her expression shifted slightly.


    Joe fixed his gaze on her, waiting for her response–a flicker of hope stirred within him when she


    didn’t answer immediately.


    However, that hope vanishedpletely when Skr finally replied, “Okay.”


    Later that night, Joe chose not to stay at Gxy Vi.


    As he left, he told her, “I won’t be back for a few days. You can stay here peacefully. After the


    divorce, the Gxy Vi will be yours. You won’t need to move.”


    Before Skr could respond, he had already departed. Alone in the now–quiet Gxy Vi, she felt


    a moment of disorientation before picking up her phone to call Janine.


    Momentster, she left the vi.


    The next day, Steven and Charles returned home. Both had been busy with worktely.


    They wholeheartedly supported her decision when they heard that Skr nned to take a break.


    “Mom mentioned that your online store is doing great. Your ie has increased significantly, and


    you’re even doing live streams. You don’t need to worry about a nine–to–five job anymore. Even if


    your store didn’t earn much, Charles and I could support you,” Steven said, looking at Skr.


    No matter what decisions Skr made, he always supported her. However, he sensed something


    must have happened. Otherwise, she wouldn’t have quit her job so suddenly.


    Charles also seemed to pick up on the tension, and he and Steven shared a knowing look. They


    didn’t want to push Skr. Instead, they agreed to wait for the right moment to bring it up.


    Janine cheerfully headed to the kitchen to prepare dinner. “You three should catch up. Don’t worry


    about the kitchen. I’ll handle dinner myself tonight.”


    Once Janine was in the kitchen, Charles couldn’t bold back and asked, “Did someone at work bully


    you? Or did you argue with Joe?”


    They had seen some news about Joe and Vera.


    “There are reasons for my resignation, but it’s not about being bullied by colleagues. Lately, there


    have been too many negative items in Jipsburg. After helping some people with those issues, I


    think

    someone’s got their eyes on me.


    “After discussing it with Mr. Gardner Senior, we decided to publicly state that I resigned while I


    secretly investigate who is after me,” Skr exined, opting to share the truth with them.


    Charles furrowed his brow as he spoke, “Someone’s after you? Does that mean you’re in danger?”


    Steven immediately chimed in, “What did Joe say?”


    “I don’t think I’m in real danger. When I say someone’s after me, it means this person is keeping an


    eye on me. Maybe they’ll keep cing these negative items around people in subtle ways, making it


    hard to notice, so they can keep causing harm to others.


    “As for this situation… I haven’t told Joe yet. We’re about to get divorced, and sharing this with him


    would only add to his stress,” Skr replied calmly.


    Steven and Charles‘ expressions changed as they noticed how indifferent she sounded when she


    brought up the divorce.


    “The reason I’m telling you two is that I can face this. Lately, there have been too many strange


    urrences in Jipsburg. Getting divorced is better for both of us. You two don’t need to worry about


    me.” Skr looked at their anxious faces, continuing to exin. 1

    If she didn’t say anything, they would only worry more. It was too difficult to keep secrets in front of


    them. By being open, she knew they would still be concerned, but at least they wouldn’t jump to


    conclusions.
