Church of Heavenly Yew. Skyler Robins had already made up his mind and was determined not to turn back, despite his friends’ attempts to persuade him.
Miguel Lynch quickly found a soft votive candle stand and sat across from Skyler Robins. “Matthew is in a difficult situation right now and really needs our help. How can you abandon us at a time like this?”
He glanced at Caleb Shaw, who stood beside him, and gave him a signal. Caleb Shaw understood and nodded. “Yes, our second brother has offended the Black Ace Mob and is facing constant retaliation. Moreover, his biological father is causing trouble, and Conrad Kings and Anthony’s third brother are planning to go after him. He is in a desperate situation. As friends, can you really just turn a blind eye?”
They used Matthew Kings as a pretext to convince Skyler Robins. After speaking, both of them looked at Matthew Kings, who stood silently beside them.
Matthew Kings furrowed his brows and said to Skyler Robins, “They’re right. You know, the Hidden Clan group has severely injured me, and now I’m no match for Ben. If… if you don’t come back to help me soon, I’m afraid it won’t be long before you can help me cross over.”
He portrayed himself as pitiful, cooperating with Caleb Shaw and Miguel Lynch’s earlier words.
“Yes, yes, that’s the situation,” Miguel Lynch nodded. Caleb Shaw sighed deeply. “Ah, just thinking about losing two friends in the future makes me feel hopeless.”
Losing two friends?
Miguel Lynch and Matthew Kings stared at Caleb Shaw with sharp eyes, a hint of killing intent emerging. It seemed like they were scolding him for being a jinx.
Caleb Shaw’s mouth twitched, and he awkwardly rubbed the back of his head. He glanced sideways at Skyler Robins, who sat cross-legged, as if silently explaining: Don’t take it seriously, I was just saying it for his sake.
Sure enough, Skyler Robins slowly lifted his gaze and looked at Matthew Kings. He tugged at the corner of his lips, as if wanting to say something.
“Second brother, I apologize.” Besides “I’m sorry,” he really didn’t know what else to say.
“I’m sorry?”
Miguel Lynch suddenly exploded in anger and reached out to pull at the tight collar of his sweater. “I’ve said so much to this taciturn person just to get an apology from you? We’ve known each other for years, and you’re just emotionally distant! Whether it’s Sofia Green or Shirley Wilson, they’re just women, but we’re your friends. Friends are like brothers, have you ever considered our feelings?”
He became more and more agitated as he spoke, and in his anger, he kicked Skyler Robins. Matthew Kings reached out to pull Miguel Lynch away, but he was a step too late.
Skyler Robins was kicked to the ground by Miguel Lynch, but he didn’t feel angry or upset. He calmly reached out and propped himself up on the cold floor, continuing to look at the scripture in his hands.
“Miguel, calm down,” Caleb Shaw walked over to Miguel Lynch, worried that if he didn’t intervene, Miguel Lynch would beat up Skyler Robins again.
“Four buns? Four buns!?”
Suddenly, a woman’s voice came from outside. Everyone looked outside and saw a group of people walking in, with a woman leading the way, running towards them. That person was Sofia Green.
The three of them saw Sofia Green and their faces darkened simultaneously. Sofia Green was wearing a thick down jacket, one hand covering her abdomen, and she ran over, looking at Skyler Robins kneeling on the ground in monk’s robes. She went straight to him and knelt down in front of him, embracing him tightly. “Wuwu… Skyler, why would you do this? You’ve become a monk, what am I supposed to do? Wuwu… What about our child?”
She never expected that Skyler Robins would want to become a monk. Why did he choose to become a monk?
Was he trying to escape their marriage?
