Janine was momentarily stunned when Joe addressed her as

Mom“.

“Why don’t you sit down and have some fruit? Dinner will be ready soon,” she suggested.

Joe nodded. “Sure.”

Two hours later, Skylar and Joe left.

Joe smiled in the car. He was clearly in a good mood. “Your mom

seems to like me,” he said.

In fact, the whole family seemed to like him.

Skylar’s home had a warm, inviting atmosphere that made him feel both nostalgic and hopeful. Steven and the others genuinely cared for Skylar with a heartfelt sincerity.

This was a genuine familial concern he had never experienced from anyone except his grandmother, Gloria.

“Yeah. It’s obvious that everyone is pleased with you,” Skylar replied with a smile.

She had worried about her mother and brothers‘ reaction to her marriage to Joe, but their perception of him changed after learning of his connection to Gloria.

Throughout dinner, Joe’s rare warmth and closeness reassured them. His behavior eased their lingering doubts.

When they first arrived, Harvey was very wary and suspicious of Joe. He even doubted whether Joe was truly sincere toward Skylar.

However, as they interacted, Harvey began to see Joe as a life mentor. By the time Joe left, Harvey was somewhat reluctant to see him go.

There was no denying that Joe could easily make people feel close to him if he wanted to. His demeanor at Yancey Residence completely differed from how he usually was around others.

Skylar felt her heart softened.

Joe gently held Skylar’s hand. “Are you satisfied with me?”

Skylar looked up and met Joe’s deep gaze.

His chiseled features usually cast a fearsome shadow with the slightest frown. But now, his expression was gentle, and his

normally unreadable eyes had a hint of affection.

“Yes, you did really well today,” Skylar praised him.

Joe leaned down and whispered in her ear, “Don’t you think I deserve a reward?”

Skylar tried to pull away, but Joe’s hand on her waist prevented her escape. Glancing at Lucas, who was focused on the road, she responded quietly, “Don’t worry. I’ll make a good impression on your family from now on.”

She was determined to match Joe’s performance.

Joe’s gaze suddenly turned cold. “Besides Grandma, you don’t

need to worry about anyone else. Just focus on me.”

Skylar was taken aback. Joe then wrapped her in his arms without saying another word.

Before long, Skylar fell asleep.

Half–asleep, she vaguely heard Joe answering a phone call. He

mentioned being busy and promised to visit in a few days.

His voice was low and soft. He didn’t disturb her slumber. It felt like a dream.
