Chapter 402 is there something you need?" Jacky asked coldly.
Jeffery furrowed his brow at Jacky's aloof demeanor. "We're here to confirm your relationship with my daughter Peter chimed in, "It's Skylar Sullivan." Baffled, Jacky furrowed his brow, pondering whether he had any relationship with Skylar. "Ms. Sullivan?" he inquired.
Suddenly, a curious incident cto mind. John had mentioned the Williams family approaching the Gardners, questioning his relationship with Skylar.
They believed she was his mistress and hoped to exploit their connection to escape their predicament. Now, they were desperate enough to seek him out.

Knowing how much Joe valued Skylar, Jacky wondered who dared claim a relationship with her. John had mentioned Joe's displeasure at seeing photos of Skylar working on his phone. Jacky didn't want to spark Joe's jealousy.
"Just a client? We're all intelligent people here, Mr. Lourdes. You wouldn't represent Skylar solely because of her finances. Many in Jipsburg City couldn't afford your services, let alone someone like Skylar," Peter stated frankly.
Despite the Williamses approaching Jacky for legal help previously, he wouldn't even grant them a meeting, let alone listen to their case. Peter found it difficult to believe there was no relationship at all.
Jeffrey spoke gravely, "Since we've cto you, Mr. Lourdes, we would appreciate your honesty. You can simply tell us the truth." "The truth?" Jacky's voice deepened.
"Is it true you've been involved with Skylar, using your connections to get her on Alexander's team and halt the television program?" Peter wasted no time, getting straight to the point.
The Williams family was desperate for any opportunity to turn things around.
After hearing their accusations, Jacky discreetly activated his phone's recording function.
"So?" he said.
"If you have a relationship with Skylar, we hope you can help our family. Our company is in trouble. Banks are refusing loans.

The Willems Group was in dire straite. The company was doomed if they didn't cup with a solution Jeffery nodded. "That's our only request. If you can assist, I can ensure Skylar becomes your lifelong mistress. She'll obey you faithfully and won't interfere with your family." The Williams family disliked Skylar. If she could be of service, then perhaps her existence wouldn't be entirely in vain, After hearing their plan, Jacky recalled what John had told him previously. He couldn't help but wonder if they knew how foolish they sounded.
His two encounters with Skylar had left him with a positive impression. Gloria and Joe had also accepted her. Yet, here she was, being bullied by her own family.
"I repeat, Ms. Sullivan is a client. This entire conversation has been recorded, and it can be used as m evidence of slander in the future. You have two options. Leave on your own accord, or I will have our security guard, Anthony Richardson, escort you out," Jacky said coldly. He would have demanded compensation for his wasted tif he hadn't intended to record their conversation.
"You!" Both Peter and Jeffrey's faces turned pale. They wondered if they had approached the wrong person again. It seemed impossible-they couldn't have made the smistake twice. "Are you truly saying there's nothing between you and Skylar?" Peter found it hard to believe. He was convinced there had to be more to the story.
Skylar had grown up in the countryside. Peter couldn'tunderstand how she could have managed to hire Jacky. He wondered if she had used up all her money to secure his services.
