Chapter 1354
Skylar stood frozen, overwhelmed by the various hurtful speculations and gossip echoing around her. As she looked back up at the rooftop, she saw Joe lifting Rosa and carrying her down.
Many cameras captured the sight of the two embracing, leaving Skylar feeling stiff. All around her, people celebrated.
"Look at Mr. Sowle. He must realize how important Ms. Reese is. Seeing them together is so touching. It almost makes me cry. They are the true couple. That mistress should just get as far away as possible."
"Exactly! Just look at how urgent Mr. Sowle seems. You only understand someone's worth when you risk losing them. I bet Mr. Sowle won't dare mention breaking up again."
"Quick! Find me information on the mistress. I want first-hand details."
Skylar slowly averted her gaze, stepped back, and then walked away from the whirlwind of chaos.
News about Rosa's suicide attempt and Ned's realization of her importance, as well as the identity of the mistress, quickly flooded the inte. Some influences in Murida acted like detectives, piecing together clues from various hints.
During the rooftop incident, Rosa had mentioned Skylar's name, and the drone footage captured that. However, people couldn't pinpoint exactly who Skylar was, leading many to actively search for her and request interviews with the involved parties.
Some people within the Clusian community were well aware of Skylar. When they heard she was the mistress involved with Ned and Rosa, they were surprised. Of course, many who had interacted with Skylar scoffed at such news.

Noticing Skylar's calm expression, Gloria felt an ache in her heart. Skylar had been through so much and had suffered so many blows, yet she maintained a composed and peaceful demeanor whenever facing her.
It was just so heartbreaking.
Veronica stood beside them, barely daring to breathe.
Gloria wiped her tears and said, "I saw the news, Skye. Just wait. I'm going to find Joe right now."
"That Rosa is so calculating. Making

clearly forcing Mr. Martin to marry her. With public opinion all on her side, bet a lot of those reporters were ones she called herself.
"It's all a setup! First, she pressured Mr. Martin, and then she tried to smear you, Mrs. Martin." Veronica looked as if she had pieced everything together.
She could see right through it, and it made her furious.
Skylar remained calm, soothing Gloria. "Grandma, I'm alright. Going to him now won't accomplish anything Besides, with him and the hospital swarming with reporters and influencers. Those opportunists will spin any story they can out of this."
"If you don't go to him, should you just let him marry that woman? Then what? Are you just going to stand aside? That would mean he's committing bigamy. I'll drag him to get a DNA test to see if he's truly my grandson," Gloria said furiously.
She had been considering the paternity test idea over the past few days.
