Classic Novel
Chapter 637
Someone had sought just Skylar out yesterday. However, Skylar couldn’t tell Gloria for fear of making her worry. She would just deal with them herself.
She nodded smilingly and said, “Alright! I’ll do as you say. Don’t worry, Grandma. I value your advice over everyone else’s. I won’t listen to a word of what they say.”
Skylar coaxed her until she calmed. All of Gloria’s anxiety soon disappeared.
Edgar smiled as he watched. When it came to critical moments like these, they still needed Skylar to handle them.
He’d tried consoling Gloria just now, but it had been all for naught. With a few words, Skylar managed to relieve her nervousness entirely.
In Moran Residence, Edwin and Molly’s home, Molly gave Edwin a bowl of freshly boiled herbal medicine.
“Darling, the herbal medicine is ready. Drink some now.”
Edwin took it from her and downed it in one go. Then, he passed the empty bowl back to Molly.
His face remained somber. Molly asked, “Gloria isn’t giving in, is she?”
“Mom has gotten old. She doesn’t remember what the Martin family is like. Furthermore, she’s set on insisting that Skylar is the best fit for Joe. It’s not like I would harm my own son, right?
“Skylar was born in the village. Although she was then found to be the heiress to the Williams family, they are but a tiny family compared to us. In addition, the Williams family is currently in tatters. What can they give Joe? Joe has lost his mind under Skylar’s spell. If I’d known about this, I would’ve returned a few months earlier,” Edwin complained. A vein popped on his forehead.
Molly sighed and said, “I’m sorry, darling. Gloria has never liked me. In addition, she’s not in the best of health. Joe keeps his distance from me and will not heed my advice. As to Skylar, the fact that she can satisfy Joe and Gloria means that she’s a smart woman.” This content is © NôvelDrama.Org.
“There are countless intelligent people out there. I wouldn’t comment if Joe were just having a fling with her. However, they’ve gotten married! I will not support this marriage. Have you made the arrangements as per my instructions?”
When Molly heard Edwin mentioned about having a fling, her eyes dimmed. She knew that he’d had multiple affairs all these years.
Yet, she knew Edwin loved her. If not, he wouldn’t have done everything to marry her. He’d even severed his relationship with Gloria for her.
However, they’d been married for too long, and the novelty of their relationship had worn off. Considering his position in society, there were certainly women lining up to sleep with him. Molly used to obsess over
, but as time went on, she stopped caring.
“I’m making the arrangements, darling. We can’t be too hasty. There has been some history between you and Joe as well. We can’t let him know that we are behind it,” replied Molly gently after collecting herself.
She recalled Skylar. She was gorgeous, perhaps even more beautiful than Molly had been at the peak of her youth. However, Molly felt like it was a pity for her to meet such an end.
However, this was their life.
Edwin had always been confident in Molly’s abilities. He grasped her hand, his gaze warm, and said, ” You’re right.”
While Natalie was on her lunch break, Kate called.
“Nath, Jeremy told me you’ve gone back to work. Is that true? You must take care of yourself. If you’re too tired, you must take a break, alright? Right, how are things between the two of you going?”
