Chapter 947
A few days later, Joe went to work. In Skylar’s eyes, he was no different from a seasoned Marine. Then, she headed to work too. She needed to clear the projects that had built up during her absence.
As to Edwin and Derek, Edwin had been released from the detention center with hardly a slap on his wrist. However, Derek and his sons were charged with intentional injury.
This had been kept under wraps. No reporters had sniffed out this story, and only few connected families in Jipsburg had found out.
As to Ernest, he was extremely troubled. Skylar wasn’t sure how exactly they were fretting. Paul only occasionally told her that Joe hadn’t been in a good mood. Someone would suffer when that happened.
Her holiday with Joe in Fachington had been postponed for two weeks.
When Natalie found out, she was rather disappointed. However, Natalie would be in Fachington for a while more. They would still meet there.
Skylar had taken time off to visit Simona with Caleb in tow in the past few days. She had recovered well and was getting used to her new school quickly. Her new classmates were quite nice. In addition, Wendy had started boarding at school. She was working hard for her future.
A psychologist met them every week. Any underlying psychological problems would be solved immediately. NôvelDrama.Org: text © owner.
Some wounds needed to heal on their own. Scabs would form in time.
After that, she went to see Harvey at school. He was preparing for the college entrance exams and studying all day. He spoke shortly to her before hurrying back to school. Harvey would suffer fore a while more.
Skylar headed back to Galaxy Villa after leaving his school. Suddenly, a sports car cut her off and forced her to a stop.
Just as she was about to call the police, the driver got off.
They walked over. It was Molly. She knocked on the window with a smile, asking Skylar to wind her windows down. Skylar didn’t do so. Instead, she pulled her phone out and asked Molly to call her.
Molly frowned when she noticed how guarded Skylar was of her. In the end, she
called Skylar.

They began calling face–to–face.
“Give it to me straight. I’m in a hurry to get home,” Skylar said.
Molly furrowed her brows and said, “Name your price. As long as you stop interfering with those negative items, I’ll pay you any amount you’d like. I’ll meet your conditions.
Skylar studied Molly thoughtfully.
Joe had sent people to look into Molly. However, they hadn’t found who she was working for.
In addition, Skylar was now sure that her destruction of the negative items had made the person Molly work for panic. That was why they asked Molly to talk to her.
“I won’t entertain any discussions on that. Tell the one you’re working for to stop what he’s doing as soon as possible. Stop using negative items to harm people. It goes against human nature,” Skylar said.
Molly knew Skylar wouldn’t agree easily. However, she had to make this trip. She explained, “Negative items don’t always harm people. They exist for a reason. Let’s not talk about this first.
“You and Joe entered into a flash marriage after knowing each other for a short
you two, period of time. You don’t know each other well, and there’s no love between so why are you helping him? The help you’ve offered him now won’t stop him from divorcing you for Vera. He’s just appeasing Mrs. Martin Senior now. You’re nothing more than a tool to him.”
Skylar had to admit that Molly had a smooth tongue. If she wasn’t as determined, she might’ve been swayed.
Skylar stated, “I don’t need you to concern yourself over what will happen between Joe and I. Goodbye.”
“Wait!” Molly stopped Skylar from hanging up.
