Skylar replied, “Okay.”

“Letshow you the bedroom,” Joe said, genuinely interested in giving Skylar a tour of their new home.

As Skylar followed him into the bedroom, she noticed it was pretty spacious. It connected to a walk-in closet

filled with both men’s and women’s clothing-all meticulously prepared.

She then pushed open the bathroom door, finding all the necessities and skincare products already stocked up.

“Please tellyou didn’t have someone prepare all this after we agreed | would move out last night,” Skylar

asked, turning back to him.

Joe nodded without hesitation. “We're married. There's no need for us to sleep apart.”

They could be separated as needed during the day, but they had to share a bed at night.

Skylar couldn't help but smirk. Joe was impressively quick in his actions.

Meanwhile, Aiken had just returned hfrom a busy day. Seeing Simona waiting for him, he frowned.” Why

didn’t you eat first?”

Simona looked at the now-cold dinner on the table and said, “I can’t eat. Since yesterday, you know what | want

to do. | want to call Skylar, but you won't let me.”

After learning about Joe's engagement, she realized Aiken had a chance now. Skylar wasn’t anyone's wife

anymore, so she could soon be her sister-in-law.

However, Aiken had strictly forbidden her from making the call. The restriction had drained her appetite for the

day.

Aiken sighed as he sat down, looking at his somewhat naive sister. He explained, “Sthings aren't as simple

as you think. Their situation is complicated.

“There are a lot of issues happening in Jipsburg right now. This isn’t the tfor romantic feelings. One wrong

move could push Skylar away from us.”

Aiken saw the reality.

Given how much Joe cared for Skylar, he would never easily divorce her or get engaged to someone else in such

circumstances.

Aiken understood that Joe's feelings for Skylar were significant and could be similar to Simona’s thoughts.

Simona was anxious. “But | don’t want you to lose this chance. Don’t you really like Skylar, Aiken?” After all, she

hadn’t seen any other women around Aiken lately. He seemed completely focused on waiting for Skylar.

Simona truly hoped Aiken could be with someone he genuinely liked. After all, Skylar was an amazing

person.

Aiken looked deeply at Simona and said, “Don’t say things like that, especially not in front of Skylar.” “Okay,

okay, | get it. But aren't you being a bit too cautious?” Simona felt that Aiken was overly careful regarding

anything related to Skylar.

It seemed like he was afraid of making a mistake that would make Skylar dislike him. Aiken spoke seriously, “You

shouldn't contact her for now.”

“She just divorced Joe, and he got engaged to someone else so quickly. She must be really hurt. Can't | just

comfort her?” Simona replied, a bit dissatisfied.

“You don’t understand. What she needs right now isn’t comfort. It’s understanding,” Aiken said in a stern

voice.

Though Simona had a childish side, she had experienced a lot lately. Seeing Aiken's serious expression, she

decided to drop the subject. “Fine, | get it. Don’t worry, | won't bother her.”

Aiken sighed in relief and glanced at the cold dinner before him. “Let’s just heat this up and eat. | had a meal

there.”

“Alright.” Simona nodded.

She looked at the lavish dinner spread before her but felt unenthusiastic. She thought, “When will our hbe

Eating alone made even the finest meal feel tasteless. However, Aiken was being excessively cautious. with

Skylar.

She opened her phone and scrolled through the news, finding many discussions about Joe and Lizzie's situation

trending today.
