But if he wasn't at the hospital, it was very likely that he was with Skylar.

"After confirming your surgery was successful, he went back to the hotel to rest. I'll inform him that you've woken up shortly." Hearing Paul's explanation, Jenny felt relieved. Even though she was a bit weak, she still asked the question she'd been curious about. "Does Joe really like Skylar?" Over the years, so many people had tried to get close to him, but he'd rejected them all. He hadn't gotten married all these years. Yet, he'd agreed to marry Skylar.

"Mr. Martin and Ms. Sullivan have a very good relationship," he answered.

The thought of that made his throat itch, especially since she had asked in such a sweet tone. "It's because you're too tempting," Joe said. He gulped as he suppressed his desire to make out with her.
Listening to his excuse, Skylar's face flushed. "It's because you can't m control yourself. I'm not the one seducing you." "When you tearfully call'darling' in bed, both your expression and tone were alluring."
