“Thanks, Grandma. I’m feeling much better today. I’ll visit to keep you company at Pearlhall Residence. once I recover completely,” said Skylar.

She only realized that Joe was looking at her the entire time after she sat down. So, she asked, “Do you

need something?”

Joe shot her a sarcastic, biting look. “Aren’t you surprisingly good at buttering up to Grandma?”

“I’m not buttering up to her. It’s called giving and receiving. Grandma’s nice to me and had someone deliver breakfast for me, so it’s only fair that I politely thank her.

“Do you have something against sincere social interactions, Mr. Martin? Or do you think it’s Grandma’s duty to deliver this breakfast for me, so I don’t have to thank her at all?” Skylar refuted.

That made Joe completely speechless. He found Skylar incredibly sharp–tongued. It was no wonder Gloria always forgot about his existence when she was with Skylar.

For the rest of the meal, the two didn’t exchange another word. It was only when Skylar wanted to do the dishes that Joe spoke up. “Keep them there. I’ll do it.”

“Okay, thanks.” Skylar didn’t bother playing nice or refuse his help.

She decided that she would take the initiative to bear the household chores whenever Joe got sick within

these three years.

Because of that, she didn’t plan on arguing with him over petty matters.
