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

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.
