Chapter 711
Skylar was currently unconscious, so the woman had come all the way for nothing. Joseph turned down her request to see Yara and suggested going to her house instead.
The woman took him there. When she saw that he had even brought presents for her children, she realized how thoughtful he was. She immediately liked him a lot more.
Joseph knew where the woman lived. It was Kingsley Estate. She lived in a small villa, while Rosalie/lived in a high -rise apartment in a quieter part of the area.
Skylar had purchased two adjoining units. The woman had almost 3,229 square feet all to herself
It made sense. After all, they had so many children, and there were two other nannies too.
The oldest children were twins. They were attending an elementary school nearby and were even in the same class as Brooke.
The first set of triplets were in their last year of preschool, and the youngest set of triplets were only two years old.
All eight children were incredibly adorable. After all, Skylar and the woman were both attractive.
Every month, Skylar gave the woman 180,000 dollars for living expenses.
While Joseph was in the house, he saw family pictures of Skylar, the woman, and their children everywhere. The place really felt like a home.
A rich man with connections really could do whatever he wanted.
But Joseph also noticed plenty of medication at home. These were all supplements for the children.
Skylar didn’t have everything going for him. His children looked shorter and thinner than other kids their age. Clearly, their growth and development had been affected.
Besides the effects of genetics and being IVF babies, the woman also hadn’t breastfed them because she wanted to keep her figure and remain attractive to Skylar.
But there was also another very important factor. These children had either donated bone marrow to Skylar or were about to do so.
When Skylar and Yara were kids, Edward had taken bone marrow from them too, which impacted their growth and development. Right now, Skylar was making his own children suffer the same thing too.
Skylar only had himself to blame. Joseph was even more determined to see him dead.
He made a mental note of the supplements and decided to look into them once he returned to the hospital. That would help him learn more about Skylar and Yara.
The woman showed Joseph around the villas. She said it hadn’t been easy for her, and she hoped he would look out for her.
Joseph subtly probed her for information. Once he was certain she didn’t know Cora, he left.
In the early hours of the morning, the department was deathly quiet. Joseph quietly slipped into Skylar’s hospital room and used a little trick to wake him up.
Joseph removed Skylar’s oxygen mask and switched him to a nasal cannula. He then gave him a boost of energy so he could have a normal conversation.

Joseph pulled out a photo of the woman from the night before and said, “You have another lover at Kingsley Estate, and you even had eight children with her. Why didn’t you tell me about this?”
Skylar shot back. “How did you find out about them? What are you up to? Don’t cause trouble for them.”
“How? I didn’t know a single thing at first! Then she came to my office, told me who she was, and asked to see you.
“You didn’t give her any money this month. She was about to cause a scene.”
“Then give her some money. Give her enough for a year. Maybe three million dollars.”
Joseph already had his hands on Skylar’s money, and now Skylar expected him to use it to support his lovers and children? Dream on!
Joseph said, “Look. How many more lovers do you have out there? If every one of them starts asking me for money, do you expect me to be your finance manager?”
“My money is all with you. If you’re not going to give them anything, what are you planning to do with it? To keep it for yourself?
