Chapter 1217 Can I Bring Someone Along?

Ring, ring.

Suddenly, a phone started ringing. Skyler took out his phone and glanced at it. "I'm going out to take a

call." After saying that, he turned and walked out of the private room.

Shirley pouted, "Tsk, Monica, you're so unfair. You only greeted Young Master Skyler and didn't even

notice me and Wade."

Wade laughed at her teasing remark, and Monica reached out to pinch Shirley's arm. "You're getting

naughtier now, Shirley. The nerve of you to make fun of me."

"Ouch, it hurts, Monica. I was just joking," Shirley whined but laughed happily.

Inside the private room, the atmosphere was lively and relaxed. Still, on the corridor outside, Skyler

looked at the overseas phone number displayed on the screen of his phone with furrowed brows,

looking very serious.

Clenching his phone, he slid his finger over the answer button and placed the phone next to his ear.

"Thomas?"

"Skyler, I just received some news from Boss. You can leave now." Thomas merely relayed the

message without mentioning any specific details, but Skyler knew Matthew too well.

Matthew was always cautious in his actions; everything he did was foolproof and flawless. Before he

left Castron for the hidden clan, the few of them had a meeting where Matthew had mentioned that he

would let Skyler go to the hidden clan.

Miguel was steady in his work, responsible for overseeing and guiding the businesses under his name

in Bloomstead; Caleb, although usually quiet, had a wide network and was diplomatic in his dealings.

They complemented each other, which set Matthew at ease, and this was why they ultimately chose

Skyler to go to the hidden clan.

Of course, another reason was Skyler's exceptional medical skills. With him around, Matthew would be

even more at ease.

"Am I leaving now?" Skyler's grip on his phone tightened slightly as he turned his head and glanced in

the direction of the private room with hesitation.

"What's wrong? Is it inconvenient now?" Thomas asked, sensing that something was off.

"It's not that it's inconvenient. I just want to bring someone along. Is that okay?"

"As long as it's someone trustworthy, no problem."

"Alright, it's settled then." Skyler hung up and returned to the private room, joining the others and

finishing his lunch in a relaxed and pleasant atmosphere. After the meal, he sent a text to Shirley, who

was sitting across from him. 'I have something to tell you later.'

Buzz.

Shirley's phone vibrated, and the screen lit up. While enjoying a dessert after the meal, Shirley tilted

her head and checked her phone, only to see a text popping up on the screen. She looked up at Skyler,

ignored the text, and continued with her dessert.

Skyler's face turned cold at being ignored, and he had to stop his urge to strangle her. Gathering his

patience together, he sent another text to her. 'Roni has something to tell you.'

As he expected, the mention of Veronica had a great effect. Shirley put down her dessert fork, picked

up her phone, and quickly replied, 'Okay.'

As Wade and Monica were chatting about Monica's child, they didn't notice anything unusual, and after

hanging out for a while, Wade said, "Shirley, it's getting late. I'll drop you off at work, or you'll be late,

and I'll drop Monica off on the way, too."

"Oh… Um, why don't you drop Monica off first? Our company has a collaboration with Skyler, and I

need to discuss some work with him." Unable to find a reason, Shirley could only come up with a

random excuse.

When Wade heard this, the light in his eyes flickered slightly, and he gave Skyler a knowing glance

before calmly looking away. "Alright, that works. But what about the flowers?"

The flowers he had just given her were still in the car after they got off.

"I'll get them," Shirley said.

"Okay, let's go then," Monica chimed in.
