Chapter 93
When Joe met Skylar for the first time, he knew she was beautiful and stood out among the crowd. She looked gentle as she busied herself in the kitchen. Her soft look would make one forget about how tired. they felt.
Skylar smiled when she saw Joe standing at the kitchen door. “I’ve prepared two dishes. Would you join me for a meal?”
“Okay,” Joe replied.
Perhaps because he was home, his head hurt less. It was probably because he felt more relieved.
He had drunk a few glasses of alcohol during the gathering that night. He had barely eaten anything, but he wasn’t hungry. However, he suddenly felt slightly hungry when he saw Skylar’s smiling face.
After getting changed upstairs, he went downstairs. On the dining table were two dishes and two plates of pasta.
She had prepared salad and steak.
Although these were common dishes, she made them look exceptionally appetizing
“Mr. Martin, thank you for today,” Skylar thanked him as soon as she took a seat.
“No trouble at all. You don’t have to thank me.” Joe was slightly displeased at the way Skylar addressed him. She sounded very distant when she thanked him. However, he wasn’t too bothered.
He added, “I should thank you instead, as I’ve been eating the food you prepared.”
Skylar smiled. “Let’s dig in. If we keep thanking each other, the food will get cold.”
“Okay.”
Joe rarely ate salad, but he had half a plate that day. Although the salad was just a mixture of vegetables, Skylar made them taste great.
“I’ll send you to work tomorrow morning. The chauffeur will pick Grandma and then you when you get off
work,” Joe said after he was done with the meal.
“Thank you.” Skylar nodded.

and there were small tea bags inside.
“I had the herbal store prepare these tea bags for me. It’s the same as the one you’re taking. I switched a
few ingredients, and they’ll probably help you sleep better, Skylar explained.
A skeptical look flitted across Joe’s eyes when he saw the tea bags Skylar handed to him.
He wondered if she was being nice to him.
“I’ll meet Grandma tomorrow, so I’ve also prepared some herbal sachets for a foot bath. She can bring

them home,” Skylar said as she cleaned the table.
Joe rose to his feet and offered, “I’ll wash the dishes.”
“It’s fine. I’ll do it today. You looked unwell. Are you having a headache again?” Skylar brought the plates.
to the kitchen.
Since there were only two of them, there weren’t many plates to wash. It would only take her a while to finish washing them.
Joe was slightly surprised. He hadn’t expected Skylar to be this observant and notice his condition. Probably because I’ve had a few drinks tonight.”
It was easy to have a headache after drinking, so Skylar didn’t say much.

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....
