Yulia blushed profusely at the thought of losing herself to Skylar. Skylar, noticing his wifeâs shyness, decided to stop teasing her and give her what she wanted. âIt was Miles Silverton and Anderson Sawyer, but they manufactured their anti-blemish cream using the original formula that had a cancer-
causing ingredient. Itâs likely the Department of Quality Inspection will announce a recall on all the products they had sold to the major retailers.ââThat good for nothing scumbag Anderson Sawyer! He was a wolf dressed in sheepâs skin all this while!â Yulia was furious. If it was not for Skylar, Kareem Fashion would have been in deep trouble.âNaturally, I gave Anderson Sawyer a taste of his own medicine for double crossing you,â Skylar chuckled coldly. âIâve warned him to pay the threefold compensation to Kareem Fashionâs bank account within 24 hours. Tomorrow this time, check with the Finance department if the $60 million is in. If it isnât, Iâm afraid I will have to pay him another visit.ââAlright, Iâll check in tomorrow,â Yulia nodded. She had no sympathy for a man like Anderson Sawyer. He only had himself to blame for everything that happened to him.Yulia and Skylar were in mid-discussion about the anti-blemish when she suddenly recalled something she had been meaning to ask Skylar. âBy the way, Skylar, itâs grandfatherâs 70th birthday in a few daysâ time. Would you come along with me?â She invited her husband excitedly.âOf course I will, darling,â Skylar replied to his wife gently.âMy motherâs birthday will be close too. Could you come along with me to her grave to pay our respects?â Yulia asked softly. Even though her mother had passed on years ago, Yulia could not help but feel a little emotional every time she thought of her. Skylar extended his arm, wrapping it around Yuliaâs dainty shoulders. âIâll go wherever you go, darling,â he assured her. âWhen I meet your mother, Iâll tell her how much I love you and how Iâm going to take care of you and Lola for the rest of my life.
Sheâll bless our little family from heaven above.ââMm!â Yulia rested her head on Skylarâs broad shoulder, soothing her fraught nerves from the events that happened today. As she leaned on Skylar, it was as if she was a lost ship that had finally found its way back home. Her whole body relaxed into his solid frame.Skylar stayed silent too as he hugged Yulia, quietly enjoying a rare, sweet moment with the love of his life. Unfortunately, the moment was interrupted by a loud knock on the door.âMs. Sue!
Skylar!â It was Naomiâs unmistakable voice.Skylar was slightly annoyed at his little sister for ruining the mood, but he responded to her anyway. âWhatâs up, Naomi?â he asked.âSomeoneâs looking for you!â
Naomi shouted from outside the door.âWho is it? Come in here and tell us!â Skylar responded, wondering who was looking for him at Kareem Fashionâs office.âItâs Ms. Shepard! Sheâs with me right now,â Naomi called out as a warning to her brother and Yulia, just in case they were up to no good in Yuliaâs office.Yulia straightened up upon hearing Naomi, the blush creeping up her neck and cheeks once more. She gently pushed herself away from Skylar as she replied to Naomi. âOh, please let Ms.
Shepard in!âThe doorknob twisted loudly before the door was flung wide open, revealing Naomi and Judy Shepard standing by the door. Judy walked in with a big grin on her face as she greeted her hosts affectionately. âOh my! Bro! Sis!â
