Chapter 1364
Skylar smiled and said, "Grandma, you're right."
Gloria couldn't hide her cheerful mood. "Let's go. The staff will be off work soon. The latest news is that Joe is busy at his company. Rosa has also been taken home.
"I suspect that Hawking Technologies will soon issue a statement explaining the postponement of the marriage. Let's go home and wait. Skye, you should get some rest too."
As soon as she finished speaking, Gloria felt a bit disappointed. She had planned to reveal Joe's identity to the public in front of the cameras and then openly request a paternity test.
That way, no one would dare to slander Skylar again.
However, bringing everything to light would mean making it all public. Perhaps it was better for Joe not to marry Rosa, as that would make things easier for Skylar and help her feel more at ease.
Skylar glanced around at the crowd before looking at her phone. The news was causing quite a stir. Janine and the others were already aware of her situation and had been asking about it.
In the group chat, she briefly explained everything and reassured them not to worry.novelbin
Then, she went home with Gloria. Just as they arrived, they saw Hawking Technologies had just issued a statement. It simply stated that due to Rosa's health issues, the marriage had been postponed.
The announcement was straightforward. It only mentioned a postponement without specifying a new date. This sparked another wave of speculation. Moreover, Hawking Technologies was facing its own challenges and difficulties, placing them right in the spotlight.
Gloria checked several news articles and spoke with a few friends before turning to Skylar. "I believe Joe has finally figured out who he is. However, he still has some issues to resolve."
Skylar shared the sentiment. The fact that Joe hadn't married Rosa today spoke volumes. But before meeting Joe, Skylar felt that all her thoughts and speculations had yet to lead to any conclusions.
Three days later, Rosa opened the door to Joe's apartment and walked in. The apartment was dark and empty.
She had checked downstairs just a moment ago and saw that no one was home. Three hours earlier, she had gone to Hawking Technologies, but Joe was nowhere to be found.
The employees there were
swamped with work and paid her no
mind. After she pressed them for
answers she learned that the

company was facing issues and was at risk of being acquired. Joe had been so preoccupied with these problems that he hadn't found the time to marry her.
Still, Rosa couldn't shake the feeling that Joe was using this as an excuse. He had coaxed her down from the hospital rooftop, only to start disregarding their promises.
In the past couple of days, the news about Skylar being the mistress in their relationship had quieted down. Many people were even trying to clear Skylar's name.
Then, the Cecil she had been in contact with suddenly seemed to have disappeared these past few days.
No matter how much she pressed,
there was no response. Joe was so busy that he didn't even have time to answer her questions. She felt utterly lost and uncertain about the situation.
Rosa often visited this apartment but had never been able to stay over. Today, after being out for several hours, she was feeling tired.
Her body had not fully recovered from surgery, and the doctor had advised her to return to the hospital. Yet, she remained hopeful, waiting for Joe.
Just as she was feeling hungry and preparing to make some instant pasta, she heard a noise at the door.
