Chapter 223
Jeffrey was clearly annoyed at having to reign in his temper while speaking to Skylar. He thought she was being insensible.
“Skylar, do you need help?” Skylar’s colleagues saw her being confronted by a couple who were obviously. behaving unfavorably. That concerned them.
Skylar smiled and thanked them for their concern. “Thanks, but I’m alright for now.”
Then, she told Jeffrey and Sadie, “I don’t have a boyfriend. You’re wasting your time. Stop coming to me. I don’t want to see you two anymore.”
Then, she walked around them and headed toward the entrance.
“Wait! Skye, we’re not that gullible. You don’t have to lie!” Sadie was pissed.
No wonder Peter and Samuel had looked so grumpy after meeting her the last time. Sadie also
understood now why Maisy had been so mad that she had fallen sick.
Skylar was taking them for idiots. She didn’t even bother to come up with a better lie.
“Skye, you really disappoint me.” Jeffrey was out of patience.
Skylar scoffed. “And what has that got to do with me? Stop coming after me, or I’ll call the security on you.
Then, she continued walking toward the building.
Sadie wanted to grab her, but Skylar was too fast for her. Sadie felt embarrassed as her arm hung midair. There was nothing she could do but watch Skylar enter the office building.
Staring at the guards at the entrance, Sadie went red with anger. Turning around, she noticed that Jeffrey looked gloomy as well.
She said, “We didn’t raise her, so she doesn’t care about us. What should we do now, Jeff? She refuses to
tell the truth.
“From that, we can tell that her sugar daddy is someone whose identity should be kept hidden. Can it be… “A thought occurred to her, and her eyes widened in disbelief.
She continued, “Can it be that… Jeff Mr. Gardner Senior always turns down people who try to get into his team through connections. Those who aren’t skilled would never get the chance to join.
“But Skye got in. That means the person who helped her is related to Mr. Gardner Senior, Can it be that she’s seeing his son?
“He only has two sons. His elder son is abroad, while his younger son, John, lives in Jipsburg. Can he be the one?”
Jeffrey’s eyes lit up. “John Gardner…”
Chapter 273-
“Yes, Jeff. It might be him. He just got engaged recently. He must’ve taken Skye in as his mistress after that. No one can know about this; that must be why Skylar refuses to tell us about him. It all makes sense
now.”
The more Sadie spoke, the more convinced she was that her assumptions were correct.
Although Skylar didn’t stand out in any way, she did have the looks that would attract most men.
“Alright. Now that we have the guy, let’s find him. I’ll have a good talk with John.” Jeffrey thought they had
found a solution to their situation.
Sadie nodded. “It’s best if he calls off his engagement and marries Skye. Then, he can wholeheartedly help us.”
“Okay, I’ll get ready. Peter will come with me tomorrow when I go to meet John,” Jeffrey immediately said.
While they were on their way home, Maisy called them to find out how things were going. So, Sadie told her everything.
