What Joe meant was that Skr was privy to everything going on in his life. Naturally, she should
be able to listen to what Vera had to say to him.
Skr was surprised.
Joe’s tone turned warm as he implored, “Come here and sit with me for a bit.”
Skr wouldn’t turn against him. He was being nice, after all. After a brief moment of thought,
Skr sat
back down.
They looked like a beautiful couple. They gave off simr vibes, as though they were a married
couple. Perhaps it was because they’d lived together for a long time.
When Vera thought of that, blood drained from her face. She wasn’t here to watch them show off
their love.
Was Joe trying to make her realize the difficulty of her endeavor and force her to give up? Or was
he proving her wrong and telling her he no longer liked her? Instead, was Skr the woman he
loved now?
Bile scratched the back of Vera’s throat. It was as though someone was choking her. Jealousy
flooded
her.
Just as Vera was about to lose herposure, Joe’s cold words calmed her down.
“Well, what do you want?”
There wasn’t a hint of emotion in his tone.
Vera found this uneptable. She watched the couple before her. In the past, she’d imagined a
woman by Joe’s side. However, it couldn’t be anyone else other than herself.
However, Joe now had a woman with him who wasn’t her! How ironic
T
Vera gulped and said lowly, “My apologies foring to see you at this hour. However, I have no
ide who else I can turn to.
“In the past few years, I’ve been studying abroad, and someone has been stalking me. He loves
sme madly. I thought he would give up after I came home. However, he just called me and said he
would seek me out at my home! He insisted he could give up his life for me and asked me to marry
him.
“Hees from a wealthy family. I couldn’t gather the courage to tell my parents about this. They’re
still in the hospital getting treated for the burn wounds. You’re the only person I thought could help.
Could your lend me a hand by finding people to chase him out of Jipsburg?”
O
“Grandpa can help you with this. There was no need to seek me out.” Joe looked unmoved by this
information. Vera couldn’t get a read on him.
Skr couldn’t understand Joe. He could always abandon her in favor of Vera. He looked as though
he cared deeply about her. However, Joe was distanced and cold when she came to ask for help.
It was as though Vera was a stranger who didn’t upy much of his attention and that they were
nothing more than an old friend.
This waspletely different from how Skr had envisioned their rtionship to be.
Joe turned to Skr after he was done speaking.
When he saw her with her head hung low, lost in thought, he ruminated on how she would’ve
replied to his question if they hadn’t been interrupted by the doorbell

Vera stared at Joe with her mouth open. Was hepletely unconcerned for her safety?
When he heard about someone who loved her to the point of madness, he showed no signs of
caring. How did he think about her?
She wanted to touch her ring subconsciously. However, Vera remembered that she had put it into
her bag before pressing the doorbell.

If she’d had the ring on, Joe probably wouldn’t have shown her such an attitude.
“My Grandpa isn’t pleased with me because of the negative items I bought home at the auction. My
family members also me me for that. If I told him about this, it would only further piss him off.
Joe, I’m terrified,” Vera bit out through tears. She bent her head in stark contrast to how she used to
hold it high. Joe was probably the only man in the world she’d show her vulnerability to.
If she hadn’t been genuinely terrified, how would Vera allow this side of her to be exposed before
Skr? Skr was definitelyughing internally about it.
Of course, Vera couldn’t read her mind. Skr wasn’tughing, she was thinking about how she
really shouldn’t be staying here.
