Natalie looked back in the direction of Hank’s and Austin’s gazes.
Upon seeing that Jeremy hadn’t left, she waved at him.
Jeremy smiled and nodded at Natalie before speeding off.
After Jeremy left, Natalie turned back and said, “Yes, he’s my husband. He drove me here since he was
free.”
Hank stared at the limited edition car. There couldn’t be more than two of those in the whole of Jipsburg
City.
He glanced meaningfully at Austin before asking Natalie, “Are you just here to experience the lives of us
peasants?”
Natalie explained, “I’m not here to do that. I’m here to work!”
She did not want to be misunderstood by them.
If she had known this would happen, she would have told Jeremy to leave as soon as possible.
She told Hank and Austin she was married but nothing about their financial situation.
Jeremy had driven a limited edition car today. With a single glance, one would know it wasn’t a cheap car.
Hank said nothing else. However, he did not believe her for even a second. That being said, Natalie did not behave like a privileged housewife. At work, she was hardworking and willing to suffer.
He’d seen the man in the car. He seemed familiar, as though they met each other before, He was also handsome, so much so that he could’ve been an actor.
As an agent, he knew that a man like him wouldn’t be any less successful in the entertainment industry. with proper management. Of course, he could tell that Natalie’s husband probably dabbled in the business
world.
Austin seemed to be deep in thought. However, he was likely immersed in his character since they were about to begin filming.
Natalie didn’t dare disturb him, and she didn’t continue explaining herself. She would use her actions to prove how much she valued this job opportunity.
The next day, Skylar woke up and found herself nestled in Joe’s embrace.
He came back?
When had he come home? Why hadn’t she heard anything?
As she pondered on it, Joe suddenly turned around, squashing her.

His eyes had been closed in deep sleep moments ago. Now, there was not a hint of drowsiness in his eyes. They glinted like stars in the night sky.
Joe asked, “Have you forgotten what you promised me last night?”
There was a rasp in his morning voice. However, it was dangerously sexy.
Skylar had just woken up. Her reactions were slow. She asked, “What have I promised you last night?”
Why did she have no impression of that?
“You’re not planning to break your promise, are you? I’ll play the recording of last night,” Joe was an intelligent man. He’d guessed that Skylar would forget what she’d said while drifting in and out of sleep.
As Joe picked his phone up and played yesterday’s recording, Skylar froze. She scoured her brain for this
memory.
“I wasn’t awake last night. It doesn’t count. Let me get up to make breakfast,” said Skylar while pushing at
Joe.
However, he remained unmoved no matter how hard she pushed at him. He was holding her down tightly.
As she struggled, her face flushed. She could feel the change in his body. It shocked her so much she
didn’t dare to move.
Joe leaned down to kiss her. He was rather rough with her, as though he was punishing her for her ploy to
break her promise.
Skylar’s breathing became irregular from his actions.
Joe whispered, “If you don’t fulfill your promise, why don’t you guess whether I’ll let you go to work today?”
In such matters, men were naturally gifted. She believed that he wouldn’t let her go to work! Skylar looked up and kissed his Adam’s apple.
His eyes darkened. He seemed like a lion about to pounce. He said huskily, “Go on.”
Afterward, Joe leaned against the bed frame. Copyright by Nôv/elDrama.Org.
Lust lingered in his eyes.
