Chapter 63
“Plus, it all happened too fast. One hour ago, the Williamses were still in control of the entire situation. It’s only been tens of minutes. Look at what it has become. The Williamses must be losing their nerve.”
“A speed like this is comparable with Martin Group’s PR team’s work.”
Steven didn’t know what to say. As he read the comments on the screen and went through his friends! analyses, his eyebrows knitted even tighter together.
He thought about how Skylar had remained calm throughout. Also, he had no idea where she had been staying since leaving Williams Residence.
Could it be…
Was her head in a mess thanks to Christopher’s lies and betrayal? Did she end up finding some backing.
as a result?
Also, Janine told him that Skylar had given her money.
After working hard for many years, Steven knew what a bad influence society could bring. Furthermore, Skylar was a natural beauty. Recently, she was deceived by Christopher and oppressed by the Williams. family.
Would she…
Steven jumped to his feet.
His colleagues next to him were shocked to see how fierce he looked. “Calm down, Steven, Kenny has some history here at Jipsburg City. We really don’t have any evidence of him stealing your research paper.
Why don’t we write a new one? It wouldn’t do you any good to go against him.
“Everyone now knows that he stole your paper. He wouldn’t dare to come against you so blatantly in the
future. If it wasn’t for the connections that his family had, he couldn’t have been accepted in the company.
Steven’s face dropped. He looked at his colleagues and said, “I don’t plan on meeting him again. He might
be able to steal my paper, but he can’t steal my execution. He won’t be able to handle it when he works on
his experiment.”
“You scared me! I thought that you were going to get even with him?” His colleagues breathed a sigh of
relief.
Steven picked up his phone again to call Skylar up. But he stopped himself.
All he had right now was guesswork.
He decided to ask Skylar out/after work so that he could clarify things with her face–to–face.
Joe was at Martin Group. He took a quick glance at his phone after his meeting ended.

Gloria had tried calling him earlier, but his phone was on silent. He didn’t realize she called.
He called her back.
“Any reason you were looking for me, Grandma?”
“What? Do I need a reason to call my grandson? Can’t I call you even when nothing has happened?” Gloria grunted.
Joe could hear the energy in her voice as she questioned him. He pinched the bridge of his nose. “Of course, you can call me any time, Grandma.”
“You don’t have to come to the hospital today. A few of my old friends have come to visit with their great- grandchildren. You might embarrass me if you bump into them here,” Gloria said.

Joe was used to hearing all sorts of complaints about him. So, he obliged. “Alright, I won’t go over then.”
“You should just ask Skye to the hot springs. It’s a good opportunity for you two to stay a night at our family’s hot spring hotel and get to know one another better.
“It’ll be even better if you can create my future great–grandchild tonight so that I can show them off next year,” Gloria suggested.
Joe frowned. “I’m swamped with work today, Grandma.”
“Did Martin Group hire a bunch of trash? You’re turning 30 soon. Why aren’t you getting down to business yet?” Gloria questioned.
