NovelEnglishChapter 136 1/2 Chapter 136 Half an hour later, Skylar met Joe. They hadn't seen each other for over ten days. When Joe saw Skylar return, he looked at her.
"You're back?" "Yes, there was no traffic. It only took30 minutes to cback from Williams Residence," Skylar said as she walked in while carrying her bag.
Love you! dinner?" Joe asked.
Skylar noticed there was no gloom in his eyes. There was no sign of hunger or irritation after an argument. She thoughtfully nodded. "I had dinner before going to the Williamses." "Con, I'll take you somewhere," Joe stood up.
"Where to? It's already past eight." "You'll see when we get there." Skylar was silent for a moment before following him. She had thought they were going out, but Joe led Skylar to the garage instead.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtShe had never been to the garage before. She knew it was large but never realized it was this vast. It housed over thirty cars. It was more than a typical car dealership would have.
She wondered what Joe had in mind and realized she couldn't read him. Still, she generously complimented, "These cars are so cool!" And each one was cooler than the last She didn't know much about cars, and she didn't recognize sof the brands. However, just looking at them, she knew they were impressive and obviously very expensive.
Joe's eyes displayed a rare softness. "Pick one you like." "What? For me?" "Yes, it's a gift fromfor joining Mr. Gardner Senior's team. The car you're currently driving is too small." He hadn't noticed what car Skylar had been driving before. He assumed she would choose one from the garage. Instead, she had bought a small car worth over ten thousand dollars. He wouldn't have known if Paul didn't tell him.
Skylar shook her head in refusa). “My car is newly bought, and it's an electric one, economical and cheap to run. The cars here all have high fuel consumption. They're too conspicuous for work. But thank you for the thought." "You're Mrs. Martin now, Gradually, Grandma's friends will get to know you. Our relationship is something the Intedoesn't know about. If they find out I've been neglecting you, I won't be able to explain to the elders," Joe said. He had anticipated her refusal.
Chapter 136 2/2 Skylar couldn't refuse any longer. "Alright then, thank you." She walked past the cars.
"If you don't like any, we can go to a dealership tomorrow and pick the car you like," Joe said, seeing that she wasn't particularly impressed by his collection.
He had many cars. He bought them on a whim whenever a new or limited edition cout. Many had never been driven.
Staff from Pearlhall Residence regularly cby to maintain these cars.
Now that he finally had tto look at them, he found them ordinary. It made him somewhat reluctant to gift them.
In Skylar's mind, if these cars weren't impressive, the ones elsewhere definitely weren't worth considering.
Natalie had once briefed her on a few models, mentioning that Jeremy liked one. It was a limited edition that Joe had reserved. Jeremy could only long for it.. She had just seen that car. It was covered in dust.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmClearly, it had never been driven.
She casually chose one. "I'll take this one. But let's agree, if we sagree if we vim Grandma, ll drive this car. For work, I'll stick with my old one.
"The most expensive car my coworer drives is worth just over a hundred thousand. If I drive this to work, I'l inevitably be bombarded with questions. At work, I prefer to keep a low profile." Joe nodded. "As you wish." They left the garage.
Joe received a phone call when they were about to head back inside the villa. It was probably a friend. inviting him out.
