Chapter 403
Jeffrey couldn’t understand why Jacky would only help Skyfer when so many wealthy people in Jipsbu City were willing to pay him. It didn’t make sense unless Skylar was using some kind of seduction,
“Did Skylar say something to make you treat us differently?” Jeffrey frowned. The more he thought about it, the more suspicious he became. Skylar’s behavior was really starting to get on his nerves.
Jacky turned to Emily and said curtly. “Call Anthony.”
“Okay”
The mention of Anthony darkened both Peter’s and Jeffrey’s faces.
“Mr. Lourdes, aren’t you taking this a bit too far?” Jeffrey exclaimed angrily.
Peter stared defiantly at Jacky, but his expression was unreadable. Jipsburg City’s most renowned lawyer was a master at concealing his emotions.
Within two minutes, Anthony arrived.
Peter and Jeffrey’s faces fell even further upon seeing him.
Ten minutes later, Joe finished a meeting and checked his phone. Jacky had left him a message and a
recording.
The message said that Peter and Jeffrey Williams had confronted Jacky. They believed Skylar was his mistress and tried to pressure him into helping them.
The recording revealed Peter and Jeffrey disparaging Skylar with every word. Each insult made Joe
angrier.
It infuriated Joe to think the Williams family saw his wife this way? Were they trying to pimp her out? Did they want Skylar to be someone’s mistress for life?
and the Williams family seemed no different. These
The Martins had their fair share of shameless people, experiences fueled a burning resentment in Joe’s heart.
“There’s no need to tell Skylar about this,” Joe decided as he dialed Jacky’s number.
Jacky chuckled. “If the Williams family knew Skylar married you, they’d be in for a shock. They might even come begging. But trust me, they won’t get a simple escort out by security this time.
“I’ve gathered evidence of their corporate crimes. That evidence is enough to put them away for a decade at least. I’ll hand it to Mr. Ziegler when he gets back.”
“Good,” Joe said before hanging up. His mind drifted back to the day he and Skylar registered their
marriage. She had looked pale and heartbreakingly fragile.
Was she really being bullied by those Williams jerks? And what about Christopher?
