Skylar prepared a few dishes. Then, she sat down and waited.
If he had been free, Joe would have come home around this hour.
Occasionally, he would be 20 minutes late.
20 minutes passed with no sign of Joe. It looked like he hadn’t returned home for the past few days.
Skylar ate dinner. Then, she did some cleaning till 7:00 pm.
Suddenly, the doorbell rang.
People seldom came to Galaxy Villa. The helpers from Pearlhall Residence would’ve come in directly. They didn’t need to ring the doorbell.
She walked to the door and watched the figure on the screen. It was Vera. Skylar was rather surprised. It would be disrespectful to pretend that no one was at home. After all, all the lights were on.
In the end, Skylar opened the door.
Vera wasn’t stunned to see Skylar.
Considering that Joe let Skylar drive the car Vera had gifted him, he was definitely generous with Skylar. Vera had sent someone to investigate. Skylar stayed at Galaxy Villa most of the time. Text property © Nôvel(D)ra/ma.Org.
However, Skylar hadn’t been staying there for the past few days.
“I’m here to talk to you,” said Vera.
If she wanted to talk to Joe, she wouldn’t have sought him out at Galaxy Villa. It was too risky and wasn’t her style at all.
Skylar nodded and invited, “Do come in.”
After Vera sat down, she scanned her surroundings. She’d heard that Joe stayed here most of the time, but she’d never visited him before.
The mansion felt warm and inviting. Perhaps it was because of
presence
Vera glanced at Skylar’s home attire. It looked like she treated Galaxy Villa as home. Discomfort rose within Vera
Skylar asked, “So tell me, why did you want to meet me?”
She didn’t hate arrogant people. However, the way Vera put herself on a pedestal and looked down on others instilled discomfort in Skylar.
“You’ve been flitting between different men trying to please all of them at the same time. Isn’t it tiring?”
All the articles about Vera and Joe had been erased. Vera suspected Joe didn’t want the rumors about their relationship to spread.
What did this mean? Vera wasn’t willing to dwell on it. However, she could have a chat with Skylar.
Vera believed that Skylar was driven solely by personal profit. Money was the only thing that mattered to her. She could sell herself if that was what it took. Thus, if Skylar could be paid off, she
wouldn’t be an issue at all.
Skylar’s expression turned cold. She scolded, “What’s wrong with you?”
When had Vera seen her flirting with different men?
Vera frowned and continued arrogantly, “There’s no need to put up and act in front of me. You’re with a different man every time I see you. I don’t know how you organize so many relationships. I have no idea why Joe is so forgiving toward your lovers either. However, it doesn’t matter. Name your price.”
Money was what they cared about most. If money could resolve the problem, it wasn’t a problem at all.
Skylar couldn’t help but giggle. She mocked, “You think I’ve got complicated relationships with men just because I dined with them or showed up to events with them? Did one of your middle school teachers teach you how to reason, or did you learn this overseas?”
