Chapter 1070
Not long after, Ernest arrived.
He began to persuade Gloria, hoping she would convince Joe to call off his engagement. Since Joe had divorced Skylar, Ernest insisted that he should choose a reputable socialite from Jipsburg.
Although Lizzie had a good background, Ernest argued she was not a suitable match for Joe.
Gloria listened patiently before waving her hand dismissively. “If he could disregard the wife I arranged for him, do you think my words still matter? Don’t bother coming to me anymore. I’m tired.”
After saying this, she instructed Edgar to see Ernest out.
Seeing Gloria’s condition, Ernest hesitated to say more. He felt it would be pointless to continue, so he left disappointed.
In truth, he was also under pressure from Denton. The recent turmoil caused by his son and grandson made it impossible for Joe to be of help, and he suspected that Joe might be orchestrating these events to undermine them.
Ernest had quietly sought help from Denton, who had been gracious. They had been friends in their youth, so now that Denton wanted to marry Vera off to Joe, Ernest felt obligated to assist.
Yet Joe seemed increasingly dismissive of Ernest’s authority, refusing to listen to his advice. This
infuriated him.
“Grandpa, can we confirm that Joe divorced Skylar?” As Claudio waited at the hospital entrance, he immediately approached Ernest after seeing him come out and asked.
Ernest nodded solemnly. “Yes, it’s confirmed. His grandmother is even more ill because Skylar was her chosen granddaughter–in–law.”
Upon hearing this, Claudio’s eyes sparkled with excitement.
The first time he saw Skylar, he had been captivated by her beauty. He wanted to know what it felt like to be with a woman who had been with Joe.
Now that Joe no longer protected her, Claudio felt he could finally make a move. He envisioned keeping Skylar close, enjoying her company to his heart’s content.
When Skylar mustered the strength to check her phone, she realized that Natalie had called her multiple.
times.
Joe had set her phone to silent mode.
As she scrolled through her missed calls, she noticed Vera had also reached out, but she chose to ignore it. Instead, she called Natalie back.
Natalie answered the call almost the second it rang, not giving Skylar a chance to speak. Immediately, she launched into a tirade, listing all of Joe’s offenses,
“Damn it! Joe is such a jerk. When he was in Fachington, he was all tangled up with Vera, and now, just days after returning, he’s getting engaged to another woman while he’s still married to you. Is he out of
his mind?
“I never realized he was such a player. I mean, look at you, Skylar. You’re gorgeous. That Vera and Lizzie can’t compare to you. You’ve only been married briefly, and it feels like he doesn’t value what he has.

“Honestly, there are hardly any good men out there. Skye, trust me, it’s not worth it to be sad over someone like him. You need to listen to me. Hurry up and get a divorce. Move in with me.

The readers' comments on the novel: My Flash Romance With the Richest Mogul
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....
