Chapter 1001

Vera said, “What is Joe thinking? Is he planning to buy the same ring for Skylar? What exactly did Skylar do to him? Just thinking about how Skylar pretended to leave earlier makes me think she’s scheming.”

At that moment, Vera’s eyes were filled with jealousy as she stared at the lavish food remaining on the table. If there had been a mirror in front of her, she would have been frightened by her own distorted expression.

Unknowingly, her thoughts had spiraled out of her control, becoming easily enraged and jealous.

When Skylar returned to her room to grab something and prepared to leave, Joe came back right.

Seeing Skylar about to leave, he raised an eyebrow and asked, “Didn’t we agree to go out together? Who are you leaving me for?”

“I thought you were planning to go out with Vera. I assumed you two had plans,” Skylar countered.

Joe’s face darkened. “When did I ever say I was going out with her?”

Skylar was momentarily speechless. Indeed, he hadn’t mentioned any plans with Vera.

Skylar wondered if he was planning to leave Vera behind.

“From now on, if you have any questions, just ask me directly. My relationship with Vera isn’t what you think. You should explain whether something is going on between you and Aiken,” Joe asked directly.

Skylar hadn’t expected Joe to turn his focus onto her and Aiken. She froze and replied coldly, “I’ve told you before. Aiken and I are just friends.”

She didn’t understand why Joe kept misunderstanding her relationship with Aiken. To her, Aiken was like a brother, similar to Steven. Moreover, Aiken had someone he loved. She was now married and was self- aware enough not to have any thoughts about other men.

Seeing Skylar’s calm attitude, Joe felt a bit of relief. He said, “Let’s go then. Wherever you want.”

“Okay.”

In a fairly ordinary four–star hotel in Jipsburg City, a middle–aged man and a young woman entered one after the other.

They deliberately wanted to keep their visit here a secret, so someone else booked the room on their behalf.

Jenny walked in right after Edwin. The moment she entered, Edwin pushed her against the wall.

Jenny struggled fiercely, pushing Edwin away with all her strength.

“Mr. Martin, I agreed to meet you this time to clarify that everything between us is in the past. I’m now Rowan’s girlfriend and cannot do anything to hurt him. If he finds out that I was with you before, he would break up with me,” Jenny said firmly, biting her lip.

Recently, Rowan had been increasingly downcast. It seemed to be due to problems with a company he had started with a friend.

After facing setbacks, there was a chance that Rowan might return to the Jakeman family, which would make her the future Mrs. Jakeman.

Chapter 1001

Although Rowan’s attitude toward her wasn’t as attentive as before, she was confident he would still marry her once he returned to his family.

However, after Edwin ran into her shopping with friends a few days ago, he called her wanting to meet. She knew she couldn’t avoid him this time and arranged for him to find a small hotel so they wouldn’t run into anyone they knew.

Edwin sneered upon hearing her words. “You want to marry Rowan? How naïve are you? The Jakeman family will never accept you. Rowan is just playing with you. Do you really think he would give up being the heir of the Jakeman family for you?” NôvelD(ram)a.ôrg owns this content.

“Mr. Martin, you don’t understand our relationship. He is sincere with me,” Jenny said, her face paling. Both Edwin and Minerva looked down on her, believing the Jakeman family would never accept her. She continued, “If Skylar can marry Joe, why can’t I? Our backgrounds are similar.”

Hearing Skylar’s name, Edwin’s face twisted with disgust. “You’re not like her. She’s someone Mrs. Martin Senior insisted Joe marry. Can you find another Skylar? Or do you have her skills to get into Mr. Gardner Senior’s team? Whatever you say today is useless. Have your injuries healed?”
