NovelOnlineChapter 204 "Skye's just being polite. You need to work harder!" Gloria stepped in to spare Skylar's blushes.
Joe walked over and sat directly beside Skylar.
He casually glanced at the TV. The variety show featured men and women mingling. and flirting over dinner.
In his eyes, none of the male contestants could compare to him, and of course, none of the women could compare to Skylar.
Gloria noticed how naturally Joe sat beside Skylar, and she gave him a knowing wink.

After all, at Joe's age, all young men were probably thinking about women and looking for a companion. It seemed he had also finally reached that point.
Skylar, who had been casually discussing the show with Gloria, now felt self-conscious with Joe sitting so close to her.
Gloria glanced at the clock and shooed them away. "It's getting late. You two should head home. You guys have an early appointment tomorrow. Don't stay up too late tonight." "Alright." Both of them nodded.
As they left, Gloria turned to Edgar and said, "Do you think I can have a great-grandchild by next year?" "Yes, I suppose. You can see that Mr. Martin has feelings for Mrs. Martin," Edgar replied.
On top of being older and more experienced, Edgar had watched Joe grow up. So, he knew that Joe wouldn't/speak unnecessarily.
But earlier, Joe's gaze had been fixed on Skylar, and he had even teased her-a clear sign of interest.
However, it remained to be seen how Joe viewed his own feelings.
Gloria chuckled. "I agree. By the way, keep an eye on the Silver family. If they up with schemes to disrupt Joe and Skylar's relationship, letknow." Gloria hadn't expected to have to worry about Joe's love life at this age.
c"Don't worry, Mrs. Martin Senior. I believe Mr. Martin has already dealt with it. I've seen Ms. Silver before, though. She seemed smart and was working as a TV host.
"She should have had a better wit, but her actions were disappointing," Edgar said.
Rumors had circulated before, but Edgar hadn't paid much attention to them or informed Gloria about them. In Jipsburg City, many sought connections with the Martin family, but few had been this bold.

Skylar and Joe went back htogether, Joe drove her car while a driver took his car back for him. Exhausted from the day's events, Skylar dozed off shortly after exchanging a few words with Joe.
Joe didn't realize it and continued talking. He even suggested that Skylar should consider their om marriage. He mentioned that they could continue being together if they found each other suitable. But when he got no response, he glanced over and realized that Skylar was asleep..
He felt a sense of contentment as he watched Skylar sleep so peacefully.
A thought suddenly flashed in his mind. Maybe this was better. They didn't need to be passionately in love.
After all, Skylar had experienced the highs of young love, only for it to end in heartbreak Perhaps their marriage could be lasting and stable without the distractions of love.
