“Grandpa!”
Vera called for him twice in a row in her panic.
A bunch of helpers crowded over and helped to examine him.
Denton hadn’t lost consciousness. However, his face was ashen, and he felt frail. He said, “I’m fine…”
He couldn’t see himself, but Vera and the helpers could see him just fine. They had never seen him so pale.
Although he was getting old, he was very healthy. Denton was examined frequently at the hospital, and his personal doctor showed up every week. Considering this, Denton probably didn’t have any health problems. This content provided by N(o)velDrama].[Org.
“Grandpa, why don’t we get you checked at the hospital?” Vera felt like something was wrong.
Denton shook his head. He said firmly, “The doctor came yesterday. I’m fine. Why would I go to the hospital? I probably didn’t get enough sunshine today. Besides, I’ve been stewing with anger for the whole night. For my age, anger is the worst curse. It’s nothing much. You can leave first. I’ll admire those paintings. It’ll improve my mood.”
For some reason, he felt uncomfortable whenever he wasn’t looking at those paintings, as though something was missing. Looking at his paintings was as important an affair as eating and breathing.
“Are you sure you’re alright?” Vera was still concerned.
Denton waved a hand and said, “It’s nothing. I’ll ask my doctor to come over at night.”
This calmed Vera’s nerves. She said, “Alright. In that case, I’ll take my leave, Grandpa. You don’t have to worry about things between Joe and me. After all, I’ve just gotten home. Some things take time.”
Today, one of Alexander’s friends arrived in Jipsburg. He had just finished checking into his hotel.
Although he didn’t lay out his reasons for coming on the phone, Alexander had a feeling it had something to do with the negative items appearing frequently.
Thus, he asked Skylar to come with him.
“My friend learned from Viola for a while. Then, something happened to his family and he left Jipsburg. He left for decades. Now, he’s suddenly seeking me out. Something definitely happened. I’ll go there and take a look. If it does have something to do with the negative items, I’ll ask you to come take a look with me. There’s a mall opposite. Why don’t you have a stroll there?”
Skylar nodded and said, “I’ll wait for your message at the ground floor of the hotel.”
Walking around in the mall would take time. Waiting here made more sense,
Alexander nodded and said, “Alright, I’ll go upstairs first.”
After he went upstairs, Skylar found a place to sit. As she waited, she looked out of the window occasionally, From time to time, she chatted with Natalie through text.
A cab stopped in front of the hotel. Jenny got out.
She looked at the hotel towering over her. Her eyes were rimmed red. She appeared anxious and seemed

unwilling to proceed.
Suddenly, her phone rang,
She answered the call and said, “Mr. Martin, I… I’m at the hotel. Can you give me a little more time to think? Our relationship shouldn’t be like that.”
“Why didn’t you say this while you were climbing into my bed? Don’t let me wait for too long. My room number is 2306. You can go in first. I’ll be arriving soon.”
Jenny was devastated by his firm stance. She could only agree to it.
Jenny would talk to Edwin about it. Things between them had been a mistake. Even though she’d slept with him, it was because she’d thought he was Joe.
After calming down, she couldn’t regret it more.
There were many hotels around Jipsburg. She wasn’t scared of running into any acquaintances. However, she was terrified of seeing Joe.
Jenny walked into the hotel with her head lowered.
