Skylar echoed, “Lizzie?”
Joe responded, “Yeah.”
“Okay, I’ll go upstairs to change my clothes.” Skylar glanced down at her outfit. The soft pink loungewear looked childish.
Wearing it at home was fine, but with guests arriving, she needed to change into something more appropriate.
A few minutes later, she walked down the stairs.
Lizzie, a talented violinist, exuded an artistic charm. She was also stunningly beautiful.
Probably hearing Skylar’s footsteps, Lizzie turned her gaze toward her. The moment Lizzie saw Skylar, her eyes brightened.
Joe, standing nearby, coolly interjected, “That’s my wife.”
Lizzie’s expression dimmed slightly, but her gaze remained fixed on Skylar as she introduced herself, ”
Hello, Mrs. Martin, I’m Lizzie Garza.”
“Hello, I’m Skylar Sullivan.” Skylar politely extended her hand to Lizzie.
Just as their hands were about to meet, Joe grasped Skylar’s hand and said, “Let’s go sit and talk.”
Lizzie raised an eyebrow, surprised by Joe’s protective behavior.
Skylar offered Lizzie an apologetic smile. Once seated, Lizzie got straight to the point.
“I came here today to explain to you, Mrs. Martin, that my engagement to Joe is just a strategic move. We haven’t interacted much privately, but I’m a college classmate with Paul.”
Lizzie’s straightforwardness took Skylar aback. Suddenly, she understood why Joe chose to stage his play with Lizzie.
She nodded with a smile. “I understand. He mentioned it to me.”
“Mrs. Martin, you’re beautiful, and your smile makes you even more stunning,” Lizzie said candidly. In her eyes, there weren’t many girls who could captivate someone at first glance.
Joe coolly raised an eyebrow, maintaining an expressionless gaze on Lizzie.
She pretended not to notice.

“I heard you’re a talented violinist, Ms. Garza, and you’ve hosted many concerts. That’s truly impressive,” Skylar complimented her as well.
When she went upstairs to change, she had looked up Lizzie’s profile.
The news about Lizzie was everywhere today. A quick search revealed an abundance of information
about her.
It wasn’t an exaggeration. Lizzie was genuinely gifted in her artistic pursuits.
She was one of the best in Jipsburg. However, almost nothing was known about her personal life, and there were no reports on her romantic relationships.
The only news regarding her romantic life was her sudden engagement to Joe. Everyone was speculating about how they met. Property © of NôvelDrama.Org.
Yet, no clues could be found. It seemed they had kept their relationship under wraps remarkably well. Otherwise, there would have been at least some indication.
Now, Skylar understood that Lizzie knew Paul.
Lizzie said, “I just happened to bring my violin in the car. Would you like to hear me play?” Lizzie asked in a playful tone.
She rarely performed for anyone privately due to her fiery personality. However, today was different. She felt an unusual connection with Skylar. It was as if she couldn’t help but want to indulge her.
Skylar’s eyes lit up, and she didn’t hesitate to respond, “That would be wonderful.”
Joe’s expression darkened immediately.
Lizzie retrieved her violin and played a piece right before Skylar and Joe.
It was one of her signature pieces.
Skylar listened, utterly captivated. Although Joe wasn’t particularly fond of Lizzie, he had to admit that her violin performance was impressive.
At that moment, Vera, who had driven over, could no longer resist the urge to ring the doorbell.
However, before she could do so, she was greeted by the unmistakable sound of a violin echoing from inside. The music was clear and resonant.
