Chapter 752

With just one word from Joe, their lives could be snuffed out. Peter and Samuel froze, their bodies rigid with fear. They couldn’t compréhend how Skylar had managed to completely win over Joe’s heart.

Skylar walked up to Joe. Seeing someone get slapped in front of him wasn’t new–he had seen it all before.

“Does your hand hurt?” Joe asked softly, his concern for Skylar clear in his voice.

Skylar glanced at her slightly reddened palm. It still stung from the force of the slaps she’d delivered.

“Mr. Martin…” Peter stammered, his voice filled with desperation.

Regaining his composure, he ignored the throbbing pain on his swollen face and pleaded urgently, “Mr. Martin, my mom’s condition is critical. This hospital can’t provide the care she needs. Given that she’s Skylar’s biological mother, please, help us. It’s a small favor for someone like you.”

Meanwhile, Samuel remained silent before Joe. Despite the thoughts racing through his mind, he dared not utter a single word in Joe’s presence.

Sadie groaned in pain. “It hurts… It hurts so much… I’m in so much pain. It’s unbearable, I don’t know how much longer I can live. Skye, I’m your mother. Mr. Martin, please have mercy and save me.”
