My Flash Romance With the Richest Mogul novel Chapter 1056

Chapter 1056 

Skylar explained, “You misunderstood. I’m planning to visit Grandma Viola’s place in the countryside.” 

The tension in Joe’s dark eyes eased as soon as he heard her explanation. The frustration that had been stirring in his chest gave way to a sense of relief. 

“When are you leaving?” he asked. 

“Tomorrow,” Skylar responded. 

Joe didn’t ask any further questions, though his half–lowered gaze indicated he was thinking about something. 

Skylar turned and went upstairs to change her clothes. When she returned a few minutes later, Joe had just gotten off the phone. 

He turned to her. “I had Paul book train tickets. I’ll go with you tomorrow,” Joe announced. 

“What?” Skylar was taken aback. “You’re going with me to the countryside?” 

“Yeah, is there a problem?” Joe’s expression remained calm. 

She shook her head. “No, not really. But the countryside isn’t exactly comfortable. Are you sure you can handle it?” 

Joe raised an eyebrow, his voice cold but determined. “What can’t I handle?” 

“Fine. But I have already bought my train ticket. We might not even sit together on the train-” Skylar began, but Joe cut her off mid–sentence. 

“It’s just over an hour by train. I don’t need to sit,” he said firmly. 

He had even considered standing for the entire train ride. Skylar knew then that Joe was determined to join her on this trip to the countryside, no matter what. 

Afterward, Skylar carefully dealt with the ring. Then, she and Joe packed up a few things together. 

Since shopping in the countryside wasn’t convenient, they made sure to bring enough clothes and daily essentials. By the time they were done, it 

was already past midnight. 

After breakfast, they headed straight to the train station the following day. On the way, Skylar informed Gloria of their plans. 

Gloria thought they were just taking a trip to the countryside to relax and cheerfully mentioned that they Gloria thought they were just taking a trip to th should all have dinner together when they returned. 

After finishing the call with Gloria, Skylar also called Janine to inform her of the plan. Since they hadn’t been back to the countryside since arriving in Jipsburg, Janine mentioned she wanted a few things at home. 

She reminded Skylar to bring a few items back when she returned and to check for any issues with the house. 

Once they boarded the train, Skylar noticed the seat next to her remained empty as the person who had booked it was a no–show. 

Joe took the seat beside her, and from the moment they sat down until they reached their destination, no 

one came to claim the spot. 

Skylar figured Joe hadn’t previously traveled on such a crowded, older train. The train was full, and the

seats were quite cramped.

Facing strangers wasn’t a big deal for her, but it was probably uncomfortable for Joe. Skylar could sense his slight impatience. 

The weak phone signal made streaming videos or shows difficult. Seeing Joe’s growing frustration, Skylar suggested, “I downloaded a movie in advance. Do you want to watch it together?” 

The trip took only about an hour, just enough time for them to finish the movie before they reached their
