Chapter 1025

Skylar knew that Alexander didn’t quite believe her explanation, but there was no way she could tell him about her rebirth.

“It doesn’t matter when I started thinking about a divorce. Once Grandma feels better in a few days, I’m planning to leave Jipsburg for a while. I’ve already handed my resignation to Mr. Gardner Senior.”

Skylar lowered her head, unable to meet Joe’s eyes. She took a few bites of steak before finally responding.

Joe’s expression changed instantly. He couldn’t believe that Skylar wanted to leave Jipsburg and that she had even quit her job.

Joe stared intently at S‘

“You’re that eager to get away from me?” he asked with a mocking smile.

“It’s not that. I’ve never wanted to get away from you,” Skylar answered immediately.

“Or are you just afraid I’ll stop you from being with Aiken?” Joe asked again.

Skylar replied in a low voice, “My decision to divorce has nothing to do with anyone else. It’s because being with you was a mistake from the very beginning. If I hadn’t made that phone call back then, maybe none of this would have happened. It’s my fault.”

at the courthouse.”

Joe kept his eyes on her until she walked away, and only then did he shift his gaze.

He lowered his eyes and remained silent for a long time before calling Paul. “Find out who Skylar has been meeting with recently.”

After Paul agreed, Joe was about to hang up and call Alexander when Paul quickly added, “Mr. Martin, before you go, there’s something you should know. I’ve just received some new information.

“The person I had monitoring Molly informed me that, before you and Mrs. Martin left Jipsburg, Molly had met with Ms. Ruell.
