Chapter 365
Jeremy frowned and responded coldly. “She’s not worthy of my attention.”
John suspected Jeremy had lied. He heard that Jeremy and Annabelle were spending more time together, including on business trips. Jeremy rarely returned home, as well.
In this situation, he suspected that Jeremy was preparing to divorce the poor Natalie for Annabelle.
Joe glanced at Jeremy and said nothing. Then, he took out his phone and checked his WhatsApp.
“Where are you?” he texted Skylar.
However, she didn’t reply, even after he took his seat.
The Hughes family’s Wiscadian restaurant stood five floors high. It was large and crowded.
“You’re married?” Jeremy was surprised to know that Joe got married without informing them. If he hadn’t come over, he might only know Joe was married after Joe’s child was born!
Joe responded with a nod.
“His wife works for my dad. My dad said she’s far better than he was when he was young.”
When John talked about Skylar, his tone was full of appreciation. He rarely praised and complimented someone, but she was capable enough to get his praises.
He thought Joe had unintentionally found a treasure. And Joe appeared to like Skylar. Although Gloria was the one who was behind the marriage, Joe probably enjoyed it enough to agree.
Skylar.
“She’s indeed good.” Joe smiled, following John’s words and praising Skylar.
It was rare for Jeremy to hear Joe praise a woman. It was most likely the first time in over 20 years.
you tempted
“Are by her?” Jeremy asked curiously.
Joe had always appeared cold and aloof when they talked about love, as if being attracted to a certain woman would never happen in his life.
However, he now admitted Skylar was good. That was unusual.
John took a sip of red wine and gazed at Joe. He remembered Joe telling him at the Martin Group that he disliked Skylar. But now…
Joe sneered. “There is no love between us.”
Jeremy raised an eyebrow. Indeed, marriage didn’t need love in some cases.
“But you might find it tough to control your feelings sometimes. By the way, I can tell you look good today. Has your insomnia been much better lately?” John asked. He had a keen eye and noticed the changes in Joe’s condition.
Jeremy agreed, “You’re indeed different from the last time we met on the golf course.”
They found Joe’s cold air had significantly lessened
“It’s indeed much better Joe had rarely had insomnia recently. He had hardly slept, but meeting Skylar
seemed to change it.
John smiled meaningfully. Tve told you to find a woman After she makes you happy, you’ll have no insomnia problems ”
It was dull for a man not to have fun with women.
Joe snorted. “You’re overthinking it.”
He had little interest in other women, let alone those who could make him happy.
While the three of them were chatting, Skylar and Natalie walked over from the other side. They wanted to use the restroom before going to the barbecue restaurant.
When they reached the restroom, Skylar heard someone call her with a somewhat surprised tone, “Ms. Sullivan?”
She looked over and was surprised to see John. When she was about to respond, she noticed Joe seated beside him. Jeremy also looked over at the same time.
