*She was so sweet in bed but became cold and heartless as soon as she got out of it.

Joe pursed his lips and stood up, walking over to the window. The sight overlooked the bustling streets of Jipsburg City and the hustle and bustle of traffic below.

Suddenly, he felt an inexplicable sense of irritation and took out a cigarette.

Amidst the swirl of smoke, a message popped up on his phone. With the cigarette between his fingers, he clicked open WhatsApp:–

It was from Skylar.

“Grandma said dinner will be delivered to us tonight. Will you come back to eat?”

Joe didn’t notice his lips curling up slightly. He simply replied, “Yes.”

On Friday, Skylar completed the restoration of Frank’s painting.

When Frank saw the restored antique painting in his hands, tears welled up in his eyes. “Skye’s restoration skills are amazing! She has completely restored it in such a

Alexander, standing nearby, was equally astonished. He knew better than anyone how damaged the painting had been originally. Thus, he was even more impressed by Skylar’s skill.

She truly lived up to being Viola’s apprentice. Alexander couldn’t help but wonder if one day Skylar might surpass even Viola.

“In fact, her restoration skills are already better than mine,” Alexander thought with a bit of dismay. When he/saw the painting, he had little confidence it could be restored so well under his hands.

“Skylar’s technique is indeed outstanding. It’s probably difficult to find another

person like her in Jipsburg,” Alexander complimented.

Frank nodded repeatedly. “Yes, you’re right. It’s really hard to find another one like

her. Oh, right. Skye, I’ve investigated the matter we discussed last time.

Upon hearing that everything had been resolved, Skylar smiled. “That’s good to hear.
