Chapter 537
Toward the end, Skylar was tethering on the verge of consciousness. Even her fingers were numb. It was the first time they did not shower immediately after they were done.
When the morning sun rays streamed through the window and fell on Joe’s face, his eyes snapped open. He recalled how he’d fallen into the trap set for him by the Silvers before losing his mind. He tensed up immediately.
It was a mess. Traces of their mad actions last night were strewn all over the room.
Despite losing his sanity, his body wouldn’t lie to him. Had he lost control and touched Annie last night? Anger took over him. He wanted to murder her.
Joe shouted coldly, “Annie, you’ve got a death wish!”
The woman beside him did not move. It was as though she’d been tortured to death. Even her exposed shoulders were marked with last night’s brutalities. Looking at them made Joe’s stomach churn. Nausea washed over him in waves.
He was going to end the Silvers!
Joe roared furiously, “Get lost!”
It seemed to make the temperature around him drop.
Skylar was still fast asleep. She was feeling extremely weak and had no strength whatsoever. She couldn’t even open her eyes. However, she knew that she was in a weird place. There seemed to be someone who was extremely dissatisfied with her presence.
However, no matter how displeased they were, they couldn’t disrupt her sleep, could they? How could they ask her to get lost?
She shot back before she opened her eyes, “You should get lost! Asshole.”
Her soft, familiar voice made Joe pause amidst his anger.
This voice…
Joe immediately peeked over at the woman facing away from him. When he saw that it was Skylar, he relaxed his clenched jaw.
He’d spent the night with Skylar, not Annie.
The nausea Joe had been feeling subsided rapidly. He felt as though he’d been comforted and reassured. Skylar opened her eyes. She felt sore all over and didn’t want to move However, she’d heard someone asking her to get lost, and her sleepiness had magically dissipated.
She turned to see Joe looking at her. Her expression soured.
tried pushing you away last night “Weren’t you disappointed when you woke up and saw me, Mr. Martin? I while you were holding me and calling Annie’s name. You were too forceful and wouldn’t budge. You shouldn’t have made Paul call me if you wanted me to get lost. Now, you’re the one who should be getting lost!”
