No one could replace that feeling. The moment Priscilla saw Joe, her heart began to tremble uncontrollably.
A wave of excitement rushed through her, something she couldn't quite put into words. Without bothering to explain herself to Trina, she immediately walked toward Joe.
"Mr. Martin…"
Joe turned at the sound of her voice. There was a slight hint of surprise in his expression. He hadn't expected to run into an employee during his break.
Joe nodded slightly.
As he was about to return to continue playing with Skylar and Vivian, Priscilla quickly added, "Mr. Martin, I have something to discuss with you. Could you spare a few minutes? I promise it won't take long."
Joe raised an eyebrow, showing clear signs of impatience.
Priscilla hurriedly explained, "I was chatting with my best friend earlier when we saw Mrs. Martin. We were talking a bit… well, a bit recklessly. We said we wanted to flirt with you… Of course, it was just a silly conversation between girls.
"But we were speaking loudly, and I'm worried Mrs. Martin might have overheard us. I wanted to apologize to both you and Mrs. Martin. I promise I'll be more careful with my words in the future."
She had learned her lesson. There was no way she would speak so recklessly again. Otherwise, she would land herself in huge trouble.
Joe raised an eyebrow, his gaze sharpening. "Such thoughts should never cross your mind. Otherwise, don't expect to stay in Jipsburg."
Priscilla let out a bitter laugh. "I think I've made a big mistake."
She knew her work could improve her life, but her greed seemed to have gotten the best of her. She knew Joe wasn't easy to manipulate, especially with a wife he loved deeply. Yet, she had been so confident in herself, thinking she was some sort of exception.
Now, it was clear she had been overestimating herself.
"Then… why don't we go straight to Mrs. Martin and apologize? It was so hard for us to stay in Jipsburg after graduation, and we've worked so hard to get here. If we lose our jobs, it'll be all for nothing." Trina panicked.
Priscilla gazed at the happy family of three—Joe, Skylar, and Vivian. Her jealousy nearly boiled over, and her eyes began to sting with tears.

Is the author going to finally portray Skylark as a brave woman who can argue and communicate like a normal person in this real world? Hoping so.......
I don't like this story portraying Skylark's personality as too weak, too naive, Can't even defend herself Like accepting every humiliation from Vera's schemes and injustice without saying anything or doing anything. I wonder who is the protagonist in this novel, Vera or Skylark....
