Chapter 118
There was no way they could return that money
Amelia still needed surgery to live a long life. Their savings were almost depleted, and there was no way they could return Skylar the money.
Skylar was so mean!
Amelia clutched Christopher’s arm while trying to hurry him away.
Christopher’s eyes were red with anger, and his face was pale. He looked at Joe while feeling resentful.
Mr. Martin, are you really going to keep a homewrecker by your side?”
“Why? Do you think you can take my place? Who do you think you are? You’re nothing compared to me.”
Paul rolled his eye
Not everybody could handle this job. He was one in a million, and he worked hard to become Joe’s
assistant.
Paul thought Christopher was insulting him. It was one thing when there were tons of people who would give anything to get that job, but it was another when someone as useless as Christopher thought he could just waltz in and take the job.
Christopher’s face grew even paler. When he glanced at Skylar, the coldness in her eyes felt like she was
looking at her enemy.
With a sinking feeling, he realized that Skylar truly hated him. She really didn’t want to get together with
him anymore.
Christopher panicked. “Skye, let’s go somewhere quiet and talk this through, okay?”
“There’s no need for that. Just stay out of my life,” Skylar said, showing no emotions. She gripped the medical report and walked away without looking back.
When she passed by Joe, she paused for a moment and turned to face Paul. “Thanks.”
“Uh, you’re welcome,” Paul replied.
Christopher was about to go after her but was held back by Amelia. She reminded him softly, “We took a lot of money from her. Do you really want to give it all back?”
Amelia watched Christopher’s expression closely and said, “If you can’t let her go, just give her some time to cool off. Only then you can have a heart–to–heart with her later.”
“She used to love me so much. This must all be a huge misunderstanding.” Christopher said while gritting his teeth.
Joe shot a cold glance at Christopher before walking away.
As Paul passed by, he scoffed in disgust. Love? He couldn’t be serious.

2/2
Christopher was fickle, and Skylar had finally seen the real him. How could she still love him?
Even when they were in the car, Paul couldn’t help but complain, “Christopher is shameless.”
Joe lit a cigarette and rolled down the window. After smoking for a while, he said, “I don’t want to see Christopher in this city again. Make it happen.”
Paul was taken aback. Joe didn’t want to see Christopher in the city? What did he mean by that?
It meant that no company in Jipsburg City would want to hire Christopher. He wouldn’t be able to make a living in the city.
Paul had discovered Joe’s secret. He seemed to care about Skylar. This was his way of getting revenge on Christopher for what he had done to her.
When Skylar left the hospital, John had already arrived.
