The two thin straps on her shoulder looked like they could be snapped easily.

When Skylar got closer to Joe, she realized that he was scowling. Was he unhappy that her dress was embarrassing him?

She thought the stylist had chosen well and that her make–up had been well done. She liked her look today very much.

“Do I look bad?” Skylar asked.

Joe’s eyes were dark as he frowned slightly, showing his displeasure. “There are a lot of high–society people in today’s auction. You will attract some attention dressed like that.”

“If I can really do that, in addition to my beauty, I need to thank your stylist. The dress and makeup he provided were top–notch.” Skylar could hear the ridicule in Joe’s tone.

Paul gaped as he listened to them talk.

Skylar didn’t seem to care how Joe felt.

If she did, she would have been eager to explain to him if he was misconstruing her as a seductress, right?
