Chapter 124 
1/2 
Joe was right on time to pick up Skylar at 5:00 pm, Not long after, they arrived at Pearlhall Estate. 
Gloria was over the moon when she heard that Skylar had joined Alexander’s team. “Skye, you’re incredible! You know that stubborn Alex never lets anyone push him around. 
“He always shuts them down if people come begging for favors or try to use connections to get into his team. But look at that, you made it on your own! 
“Joe, have you noticed how amazing your wife is?” 
Joe was sipping his water. He glanced at Skylar, whose cheeks were flushed with a shade of pink. “Yeah, she’s pretty amazing.” 
Skylar was surprised by his compliment. He was actually going along with it today. 
Usually, he would’ve given a curt nod or ignored the comment altogether before this. 

Love certainly made him softer. 
After dinner, they watched a reality show with Gloria, who eventually shooed them out. She insisted that they enjoy their evening alone back at Galaxy Villa. 
Skylar knew Gloria was trying to play matchmaker. She hoped that their 
ip would grow. 
She would’ve pretended to play along before this. However, now it just felt so wrong. She felt like she was coming between Joe and Annie. 
On the 
way back to Galaxy Villa, Skylar handed an earring to Joe. “Does this belong to Ms. Silver? I found it when we got out of the car earlier. I couldn’t give it to you in time,” 
Joe frowned when he saw the earring. “Just toss it. I don’t need it.” 
“Really? This belongs to Ms. Silver and it looks like it’s worth a lot. She might want it back.” Skylar was taken aback by Joe’s attitude. 
“Do you know who Annie is?” Joe asked. 
“I saw her in your car the other day. She’s a well–known host. Lots of people know who she is,” Skylar 
replied. 
Joe’s reaction was a bit cold. Since they were on the topic of Annie, Skylar decided it was time to talk about the matter. “When are we getting divorced?” 
She thought Joe wouldn’t want someone he loved to be his mistress. 
Joe shot her a sharp look. “What did you say?” 
“When should we get a divorce?” Skylar repeated herself. 
“Are you trying to end the contract earlier? What’s the reason?” Joe asked with a dark expression.

Skylar was taken aback by his tone. “I didn’t know you were in a relationship with Ms. Silver. If I knew about it back then, I wouldn’t have agreed to marry you.” 
Mistakes had been made. However, as long as the mistakes were stopped in time, that was all that 
mattered. 
“Annie and I…” Joe was about to explain when his phone rang. 
“Where are you? Give me ten minutes,” Joe said. 
He hung up and turned back to Skylar. “We’ll talk about this later tonight. Don’t mention divorce anymore.” 
“Okay.” Skylar knew this wasn’t the right time to push the topic. 
Joe was probably concerned about Gloria’s health and didn’t want to upset her with the news. 
The next morning, at Williams Residence, Jeffrey was making phone calls. It seemed like the calls were either unanswered or were brushed off.
