Joe's expression was calm and unruffled as he said, "Those people are nothing but clowns to me. Don't worry about me."
Hearing his words, Skylar decided not to press further. She knew he didn't want her to feel anxious.
Indeed, the members of the Martin Group were quite the jesters. But sometimes, jesters could be the most troublesome.
However, their primary concern at the moment was Gloria. For the past couple of days, she had struggled even to get out of bed and had lost her appetite.
They wanted to take her to the hospital, hoping that the medical staff could do something for her. Unfortunately, the hospital advised that returning would be futile and that it would be better for her to rest comfortably at home.
Gloria herself preferred to stay at home, having always disliked the smell of disinfectants in hospitals.
In the last few days, Howard had also come to Pearlhall Residence with his medical team, hoping their presence would alleviate Gloria's suffering.
Thanks to their watchful eyes, they could monitor her condition continuously and provide timely treatment. Although Gloria remained weak, she experienced less discomfort.
"You can rest easy. I'll be here with Grandma." Skylar reassured him gently.
Joe's body stiffened slightly as he looked at her, a mix of emotions flickering in his eyes. "I still haven't recalled any memories from the past."
He knew that a loving grandmother had accompanied him throughout his life, yet those memories felt lost to him.
He felt guilt and powerlessness, not only toward Gloria but also toward Skylar.
"Memories aren't what matter. What's important is that you and I are here with Grandma during her final days. She told me today that she's happy you're back, and that makes her even happier." Skylar took Joe's hand, her grip steady and reassuring.
At that moment, she felt a strong conviction that they would be okay together. Joe gazed deeply into her eyes and nodded.
"It's about my mom," he said.
"Your mom? Did she find out that your dad is still alive?" Mona pushed him away slightly, stunned by the news.
Seeing her cute, shocked expression made Steven smile affectionately. "No, I don't plan to tell her and others about it. Since that person never intended to come home, there's no need for them to know he's still alive. It's about Mom. She has a boyfriend, and we're worried about her."
Mona's eyes widened in surprise. "Mom has a boyfriend? That's not surprising. She's beautiful, and you two don't look like mother and son. You look more like siblings.
"Of course, she would have suitors. But a lot of them have questionable intentions. We need to keep a close eye on her."
"We did some digging, and he seems like a good guy. But enough about that. There's something more important we need to focus on," Steven said, leaning down to plant a kiss on her lips.

Is the author going to finally portray Skylark as a brave woman who can argue and communicate like a normal person in this real world? Hoping so.......
I don't like this story portraying Skylark's personality as too weak, too naive, Can't even defend herself Like accepting every humiliation from Vera's schemes and injustice without saying anything or doing anything. I wonder who is the protagonist in this novel, Vera or Skylark....
