Chapter 1040 

1/2 

Skylar considered how they were about to get divorced. If he found out, so be it. She planned to come clean. 

“I…” 

Just as she was about to finish her sentence, the doorbell began ringing frantically. 

Joe’s eyes turned cold. Who was the idiot who couldn’t read the room? 

“I’ll go and take a look.” 

Skylar sighed in relief and went downstairs. 

She stood before the door and studied the person outside through the surveillance camera. 

When she saw it was Vera, she frowned. Skylar opened the door and walked out. 

Vera was visibly disappointed upon seeing Skylar. Clearly, she wanted to see someone else. 

She was ringing incessantly on their doorbell in the middle of the night. Vera had better come equipped with a good reason. 

“What do you want?” asked Skylar directly. 

Vera answered, “I want to see Joe. What I have to say would be lost on you. The fact that I’m here at this hour means that I need to see him to discuss something extremely important. Is he at home? Take me to 

him.” 

Skylar immediately called Joe. 

He picked up quickly and asked, “Who is it?” 

“It’s Ms. Ruell. She said she’s got to see you to talk about an extremely important matter.” 

Joe was silent for a few moments. 

As Skylar stood quietly, Vera held her breath in suspense. She was feeling rather nervous. 

Skylar picked up on Vera’s nervousness and couldn’t help but feel confused. Shouldn’t Vera‘ have been extremely confident that Joe would agree to see her? After all, they had a tumultuous relationship together. Why was she nervous? 

“Bring her in,” said Joe. 

Skylar smirked. She’d overthought it. 

Perhaps Joe had been dying to see Vera the second she mentioned her. Skylar felt relieved that she hadn’t impulsively told him about her feelings for him. 

If not, Joe would be making fun of her for that. Skylar had to remember this feeling. Then, she turned to Vera and said, “Do come in.” 

Vera sighed in relief. 

After they walked in, they saw Joe, who’d already come downstairs. He was sitting on the couch. 

Upon noticing him, Skylar shot him a glance before heading upstairs. 

As she stepped onto the first stair, Joe said, “Wait.” 

Vera immediately looked at Joe and said, “Joe, what I have to say next shouldn’t be shared with anyone
