Chapter 83
Jeffrey realized that Skylar had stopped caring about him as her father.
Before, whenever he looked stern, she would apologize and try to please him. But it seemed like she wasn’t afraid anymore.
“You little-
Suddenly, the door behind them was pushed open, and Joe walked out. He looked at Jeffrey
expressionlessly. His gaze calmly swept over the man’s raised hand.
Jeffrey was momentarily taken aback. Hearing the sound behind him, he turned to look. When he saw the newcomer, his expression changed.
Joe?
“M–Mr. Martin!” Maisy exclaimed.
With a pale face, Skylar looked at Joe.
Joe frowned. If he had come out a moment later, would Jeffrey’s hand have struck her? All content © N/.ôvel/Dr/ama.Org.
The Williams family seemed to treat her worse than he had thought.
“Are you trying to hit her, Mr. Williams?” Paul immediately questioned; he was surprised.
Jeffrey was really bold to attempt violence in front of Martin Group’s entrance.
Paul then noticed Skylar’s pale complexion. Was she scared?
“I–I didn’t mean to hit her. She’s my daughter. She did something wrong, and I was just talking to her about it. Sorry for letting you see this, Mr. Martin,” Jeffrey immediately explained himself awkwardly.
After speaking, he felt that it didn’t seem quite right.
If Paul were Skylar’s sugar daddy, Jeffrey would’ve gained some advantage. After all, Paul was someone
Joe trusted.
If one of his daughters became Paul’s woman while the other became Joe’s, the Williams family would be peerless in Jipsburg.
“Yes, my dad has something he wanted to talk to Skylar, but she’s not listening to him. Please don’t misunderstand, Mr. Martin, Maisy hurriedly defended Jeffrey.
She suddenly realized that Skylar seemed to have become even more beautiful lately.
Maisy wore a set of expensive brand–name professional attire. Despite that, she couldn’t outshine Skylar, who was in jeans and a white T–shirt.
She moved to the side slightly, hoping to block Skylar and make Joe notice her beauty.
Joe didn’t look at the two of them. He looked straight at Skylar. “Did they hit you?”
After all, she was his wife. If Jeffrey hit her, it wouldn’t be any different from hitting him.
“Not yet,” Skylar said, somewhat stunned. Was he worried about her?
Joe’s gaze was deep and terrifying. He simply hummed in acknowledgement.
“Mr. Martin, she’s my daughter. How could I hit her? I came here today to talk to you. I hope you can spare
me a few minutes.” Jeffrey seized the opportunity and quickly spoke up.
He discreetly glanced at Paul again. It seemed that Paul was quite important to Joe. Otherwise, Joel wouldn’t suddenly stand up for Skylar. He must have known that Skylar was Paul’s woman.
Paul was more useful to him than Christopher. As a businessman, he quickly made the calculation.
