Chapter 439
Natalie had grown up with Jeremy. She was familiar with his body language when he got angry.
Clearly, he was livid.
Whenever he got angry, the consequences were severe.
Natalie stepped forward and hugged Jeremy. They hadn’t had sex for a long time, and she had been looking forward to tonight as well. However, it was an unfortunate coincidence. She said, “I promise, alright?”
“I’ll drive you.”
After a few deep breaths, Jeremy calmed down. He wanted to see how Natalie worked and what Austin wanted from her.
Natalie hadn’t expected Jeremy to drive her there.
It looked like he’d had his reasons for lying to Natalie. She didn’t see the need to dwell upon it. She’d let it be. It looked like he cared as much for her as he used to.
“Honey, I love you!”
Jeremy caressed Natalie’s head and said, “Give me a few minutes. I’ll change.”
“Alright!”
Skylar returned to Galaxy Villa before Joe.
He had an international conference call today that he needed to attend to at work. She didn’t know when
he would be home. Perhaps he would be staying opposite the hospital.
She made herself a simple dinner.
After dinner, she began handling her orders. They had piled up recently.
She then thought of what she’d talked about with Janine. She could try her hand at it now.
The hours seemed to fly by. Skylar dozed off.
In her state of semi–consciousness, she felt someone get into bed.
His familiar embrace felt a little cold. Skylar frowned. She said softly, “I thought you said that you didn’t know when you’d be back?”
“Well didn’t you say you wanted to thank me?” Joe whispered, his warm breath fanning her ear.
Skylar wasn’t entirely awake. She replied subconsciously, “Tomorrow…”
“I’m available tomorrow. Are you going to be making the first move?”

2/2
His voice was too sultry and attractive. When he spoke in the dead of the night, it was as though he was enticing her to follow him into hell.
It was as though no matter what he suggested, the woman under his trance could only nod in agreement.
“Alright!”
Joe smirked and said, “Okay then.”
He wanted to see how she would be making a move.

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....
