Chapter 605 

With half an hour left before the scheduled time, Skylar took the opportunity to sit down and relax. She checked her phone and noticed a missed call from Natalie ten minutes ago. The noise and music around her earlier must have drowned out the ringtone. 

Skylar redialed, and after a few rings, Natalie answered. 

“Nath, I didn’t hear my phone earlier,” Skylar began. 

“Mr. Powell didn’t agree to my resignation. He’s given me a month off instead. I’m surprised he didn’t blame me and insisted I stay. I feel very guilty,” Natalie said quietly. 

Her tone revealed her feelings of dejection. 

“Is it ahead?” the cab driver suddenly asked Natalie. 

Skylar heard the driver’s question and asked, “Nath, where are you?” 

“Yes, it’s just up ahead,” Natalie replied to the driver first. 

Then she put her phone back to her ear. “I’m in a cab heading back to the house Jeremy and I share. My mom is waiting there. There are things I can’t keep hidden any longer. 

“I think it’s time to be honest with them. It might be better if both our parents knew about this. Maybe Jeremy and I can stop dragging this out.” 

Skylar wasn’t sure how to advise Natalie on what decision to 

make or how to proceed. 

Ultimately, it was Natalie’s decision. 

“I believe your parents will support whatever decision you make, Nath. Make sure to stay calm when you see Jeremy. Decisions made in a calm state of mind are less likely to be regretted,” Skylar advised gently. 

Natalie forced a smile, trying to appear more relaxed. “I’ve 

been thinking about it seriously I’m almost there, so I have to hang up. I’ll sort things out this month, and we can catch up later. Don’t worry about me.” 

After the call, Skylar stared blankly at her phone. So much had happened lately, and Natalie and Jeremy’s situation was 

unfortunate. If Annabelle hadn’t manipulated Jeremy, he probably wouldn’t have cheated. He should have resisted the temptation even if his feelings for Natalie weren’t strong. 

A text message broke her out of her thoughts. 

Joe texted, “I’ve arrived, and I’m downstairs.” 

Skylar had asked the staff not to reveal her arrival, so she replied, “Go up. I’ll be there in ten minutes.” 

To avoid being seen, she parked across the street. Her small car would be too conspicuous in front of the restaurant. 

“I’m waiting downstairs.” 

“Don’t wait for me. ‘Go ahead and order the food so that it’s ready when I arrive. I’m starving,” Skylar texted, feeling a bit exasperated. She wouldn’t have said anything previously since waiting downstairs or upstairs made no difference to her. 

“Got it.” 

Skylar breathed a sigh of relief. Meanwhile, Joe headed into 

the restaurant. 

Joe walked toward the elevator. At the same time, someone else was heading upstairs. 

Joe’s cold gaze briefly scanned the newcomer, and his expression shifted slightly when he recognized him. Content © copyrighted by NôvelDrama.Org.

It was Charles. 

Charles was looking at his phone. He knew someone else was in the elevator, but he had not paid much attention to who it 

was. 

Sensing that the person was looking at him, he turned around sharply. 

He was momentarily stunned to see Joe. He had seen Joe in interviews with Annie before.
