All Novel Sweet
Chapter 74
Sadie tried calling Janine several times, but there was no answer. This content © Nôv/elDr(a)m/a.Org.
She didn’t know that Janine had blocked her number since the Incident at the hotel. So, while Sadie could
make the call, there was no response on the other end.
“They must have agreed on this!” Sadie’s face turned extremely ugly. If it weren’t for her manners, she would have thrown her phone in anger.
Just then, Jeffrey called. After finishing the call with him, Sadie felt somewhat relieved. She sai Maisy, “Let me take you shopping today. Your dad said he’ll take you to Martin Group tomorrow.”
“Tomorrow?” Maisy stood up sharply.
“Yeah, that’s what your dad said.” Sadie nodded.
Samuel was also excited. “Maisy, I’ll pay for the clothes and jewelry you buy today.”
“Thanks, Samuel.”
Christopher had asked around, but no one knew where Skylar was.
Due to the reversal of the situation online, many of their friends sympathized with him. They believed that he was being victimized by a persistent woman, so anyone with information would tell Christopher.
But now, Christopher had no choice but to contact Natalie.
Natalie was Skylar’s best friend. Perhaps she knew where Skylar was.
When Natalie answered the phone, she was busy making soup and didn’t bother to check who was calling.
“Hello, Natalie. It’s Christopher.”
“Who did you say you are?” Natalie put down the ladle.
“Christopher, Skylar’s boyfriend. We’ve met before…”
“I’ve met many people. Who are you? Besides, Skylar doesn’t have a boyfriend!” Natalie promptly hung up.
Glancing at the caller ID on her phone, she clicked her tongue. “Disgusting jerk.”
With her slender fingers, she tapped on the screen and blocked Christopher’s number.
A scumbag like him didn’t deserve a spot in her contacts. Dreaming of finding Skylar through her was ridiculous.
Skylar had been busy until 5:00 pm to catch up on the work she had fallen behind on these past few days.
When she came out, Caleb handed her a glass of water. “Have some water.”
Skylar took it gratefully. “It’s 5:00 pm. Why haven’t you left yet?”
“I’m waiting to leave with you.”
Seeing Caleb staring at her, she smiled. “Do you have something you want to say?”
Caleb blinked. “Is it that obvious?”
He did indeed have something to say. He just didn’t know how to broach the subject.
“You should usually be gone at this time. Go on. Spill it out.” Skylar was quite fond of Caleb.
Caleb wasn’t one to hide his thoughts, so he immediately blurted out, “I saw online that your ex– boyfriend seems to have been wronged. Are you going to get back together with him?
“You should know that it takes two to tango
Even if he was pursued, he sure wasn’t firm enough in
rejecting the woman. Otherwise, how could he be so easily kissed?”
Christopher’s previous accusation that Skylar was overly suspicious had made Caleb feel that Christopher wasn’t worthy of her.
