While she was waiting at the airport, Joe called her.
"Are you at the airport?" "Yeah, I'm at the gate. I'll be boarding in 30 minutes." "Okay. I have smatters to attend today, so I won't be able to make it to the airport. Paul will take you to the hotel first." Just as Joe finished speaking, Skylar faintly heard a woman's voice softly calling Joe's name. Her tone was gentle and affectionate.
Skylar's eyes flickered slightly. After acknowledging Joe and saying okay, she ended the call.
The way the woman had called him indicated that their relationship was not simple. Were they friends? Skylar shook her head slightly to push her thoughts aside. Regardless of who was with him now, she didn't have to delve into it.
The hours on the plane passed quickly. Skylar slept for most of the flight. In fact, she might have slept even longer if the landing announcement hadn't woken her.
She got off the plane, still feeling groggy. When she went out with her luggage, she saw Paul waiting.
Paul was dressed casually in a tank top and loose pants-a stark contrast to his usual work attire.
"Ms. Sullivan, are you tired after such a long flight? Hungry? Mr. Martin said if you're tired, we can go straight to the hotel. But if you're hungry, I'll take you out to eat,” Paul said in a relaxed manner.
Chapter 315 77 Paul claimed he was on a business trip with Joe, but it felt more like a vacation. He was as comfortable as he could be.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtA warm breeze greeted them as they exited the airport, instantly making Skylar relax.
"Let's go eat." Having slept through the flight without eating, Skylar was now feeling hungry.
| "Sure, let's go now. I know Korel City well. I chere almost every year. Ms.
Sullivan, would you like to try slocal specialties?" Paul asked.
"Sounds good," Skylar replied eagerly. Since she was already here, she wanted to taste the local cuisine.
her Paul glanced at Skylar through the rearview mirror. From the moment he'd picked until now, she hadn't mentioned Joe at all. Could it be that she didn't care about what Joe was doing? up While enjoying the scenery along the way through the car window, Skylar admired Korel City, a seaside town with beautiful sea views.
Korel City was a tourist destination year-round. Seeing many women dressed in elegant sundresses, Skylar also looked forward to wearing the several sundresses she had brought.
After observing her carefully, Paul was convinced Skylar was genuinely here for a vacation.
When he'd booked the flight tickets, he'd thought that Skylar and Joe seemed closer than before, almost inseparable.
That's why he'd been skeptical of the pretext of a vacation. He'd assumed that Skylar cbecause of Joe.
"Mr. Martin will probably be here to see you tomorrow," Paul said.
Skylar smiled and nodded. "Okay." Now, Paul was left puzzled. He couldn't figure out what was going on in Skylar's mind. Did she care about Joe or not? They had just arrived at a restaurant and sat down when Joe called Paul. Chapter 315 3/3 After sharing their location with Joe, Paul hung up and told Skylar, "Mr. Martin will be here in about 30 minutes." Skylar was surprised. "Isn't he busy today? Does he have time?" Chapter 315 The Williamses' faces turned dark with anger as they watched Skylar walk away without a hint of hesitation.
To them, she seemed utterly heartless. Skylar had the most free tout of all of them, yet contributed the least. Now, when the family needed her the most, she'd walked away without a second thought.
"Dad, what do we do now?" Samuel asked, clearly at a loss.
Jeffrey was just as bewildered. "Let's go hand wait for the doctor's call. Once your mom wakes up, we can all cback together." "Okay," the brothers agreed in unison.
The hospital was eerily quiet. The family had no choice but to leave, while Skylar drove straight to Galaxy Villa.
As she started the car and hit the road, she was too focused on driving to notice the car tailing her until about 20 minutes later.
When she finally spotted the vehicle in her rearview mirror, she recognized the license plate, and her expression darkened. What was Peter up to? Peter was stunned as he followed Skylar's car toward a luxurious villa neighborhood.
He couldn't believe that Skylar had lived in such an upscale area.
Even at the height of Williams Group's success, they hadn't been able to afford a place like this. After all, the Williams family had never been part of Jipsburg's elite circles.
Wasn't Skylar's new boyfriend supposed to be just an ordinary guy? How could they afford to live there? "No matter what secrets you're hiding, I will uncover them," Peter muttered coldly with his eyes narrowed, He was convinced that Skylar's secrets could turn their family's situation around.
Chapte 314 2/2 Skylar glanced at the rearview mirror again, thinking how despicable Peter was for tailing her to find out where she lived.

How could he have had tfor this, even with Sadie in a car accidentn now? But then again, there was no surprise there-Peter had indeed been raised by Jeffrey and Sadie.
Skylar made a sharp turn into a high-end residential area, and Peter stopped his car when he saw her enter the complex. Did she live here?
This area was known for housing elite professionals. It was a by wasprestigious place, but still not on par with Galaxy Villa. Had he overestimated Skylar? Peter lit a cigarette and rolled down the window, feeling a cloud of confusion settle over him.
Why had Skylar suddenly stopped trying to win their favor? She used to do everything to fit in with the family.
Could it be her new boyfriend's influence? Peter stared at the complex, lost in his thoughts.
Then, his eyes caught a couple kissing under a streetlamp.
The woman had a striking figure and was held tightly by the man, but Peter didn't care about such scenes. What intrigued him was the man's face when he finally saw 1. it.
Wasn't that Jeremy? But the woman wasn't his wife, Natalie. Natalie had been in the news before, and she certainly didn't have this supermodel-like figure.
So Jeremy had a mistress too. It seemed all men like him had their secrets.
The next morning, Skylar had breakfast and headed to the airport.
On the way, she called Gloria to tell her about meeting up with Joe for a trip. Gloria was supportive and even sent her money for travel expenses.
