Chapter 1065

As Skylar tried to step back, Joe wrapped his arm around her waist, pulling her close.

His lips followed quickly, descending before she could react.

Skylar was shocked and pushed against him with all her strength.

But Joe was like an immovable wall. His strength was overwhelming, and despite her attempts to push him away, he didn’t budge an inch.

Eventually, his hand began to slide down the curve of her waist. The thin fabric of her dress did not protect her against the heat of his touch.

His palm burned her lower abdomen, and the sensation made her heart race. Their bodies were too familiar with one another.

They both knew precisely how to make the other melt.

Skylar’s breath became uneven. “You’ve lost your mind.

She couldn’t understand how Joe seemed to have no moral boundaries.

Seeing Skylar’s face flush with anger, Joe couldn’t help but laugh out loud, his amusement even greater than before. “You’re jealous because I got engaged. That means you still care about me.”

His tone was full of certainty, not even a trace of doubt.

Skylar’s face shifted between red and pale. “Yes, I did care about you. Up until today. But now, I’ve cleaned out every last bit of you from my heart.” She wiped her lips angrily as if trying to erase his kiss

“Don’t kiss me with the same mouth you’ve used on someone else. It’s disgusting.”

Even after wiping her lips, it didn’t feel like enough. She took the opportunity to push him away, intending to rush to the bathroom to brush her teeth.

‘t before she could get far, Joe grabbed her wrist, pulling her back toward him.

His dark eyes glittered like stars caught in the night sky. “Don’t be in such a rush to clean up. Take a look at this first.”

Joe said as he placed a sticky note in Skylar’s palm.

Skylar shot him a fierce glare. “It’s too late. I’ve already cleaned up.”

She said this, but her curiosity got the better of her, and she picked up the sticky note to examine it. Viola

wrote it.

“This sticky note was placed under the porcelain. It’s for the first porcelain piece you successfully restored,” Joe explained.

As Skylar read what was written on it, her expression changed dramatically.

Viola had written, “Skye, there are some things that cannot be clarified immediately, but I know you will come back. If you see this sticky note, it’s time to make a choice.”

A choice…

It was about whether to continue with Joe or go through with the divorce.

Joe said, “On the way back last night, I chatted with Mr. Gardner Senior and saw the letter Grandma Viola wrote to you. In it, she advised us to get divorced. Otherwise, it would impact you So, your request for a

divorce was because of these two letters, right?” NôvelDrama.Org holds this content.

Joe spoke calmly, but Skylar was stunned, unable to find the words. Just then, he motioned for her to

hold on.

He continued, “I believe Grandma Viola is being manipulated. I remember her telling me that her last prediction was for you. So why would she foresee whether you would revisit your nightmares? There must be some hidden truth here.

“Someone wants to see us divorced, and they don’t want you involved in everything happening in Jipsburg.

“So…” Skylar began.

Joe continued, “So today’s engagement was something I arranged at the last minute. Lizzie Garza isn’t interested in men, so we’re just using each other for now.

“Their family has been facing some issues lately, and I hope you can help them out sometime soon. They don’t live in Jipsburg, so you won’t have to worry,” Joe explained.

His voice was now calm and steady, revealing his firm control over the situation. In just a short time since last night, he had managed to put everything in place.

“I’ve never considered divorcing you.” Joe’s tone suddenly deepened, his dark eyes reflecting only Skylar’s

image.

Her heart skipped a beat at his intensity.

He…

“Why don’t we try to like each other?” Joe suggested.

At that moment, the commanding Joe softened his tone. He was less authoritative and more pleading!
