My Flash Romance With the Richest Mogul novel Chapter 1118

Chapter 1118 

The next day, Skylar and Paul were preparing to return to Jipsburg City. Lizzie would also be heading back in a few days, and she had made plans with Skylar to have dinner together once she returned. 

Herman, who had already freed himself from his troubles, felt refreshed after a night’s rest. He accompanied Lizzie to the airport to see Skylar and Paul off. 

Carl and Winona even prepared a large bag of local specialties for Skylar. 

When the plane landed, Skylar was surprised to see Joe waiting to pick her up. Instinctively, she glanced around, feeling a wave of caution wash over her. 

Noticing her reaction, Joe chuckled and said, “They wouldn’t dare send anyone to follow me now.” 

“That’s a relief,” Skylar sighed. 

There had been no updates on Kevin’s whereabouts, so she couldn’t let her guard down. 

As they drove away from the airport, Skylar took a bottle of water from Joe and sipped it before speaking. “The negative items in Herman’s possession and those appearing in Jipsburg recently aren’t from the same source.” 

Joe’s expression grew serious. “That person’s reach isn’t that extensive. Their target is a few families in Jipsburg.” 

Skylar nodded in agreement. 

While looking at Joe sitting beside her, she suddenly recalled the words Viola had spoken in her dream yesterday and the letter she had left behind. A heavy feeling settled in her chest. 

“Missing me?” Joe teased, noticing Skylar’s lost gaze. 

Skylar quickly glanced at Paul in the passenger seat, a new appreciation for Joe’s boldness dawning on her. 

She quickly turned her head to look out the window. “It was clear and sunny yesterday. Why is it so overcast today?” 

The gloomy weather weighed heavily on her heart. The dark clouds seemed to threaten a torrential downpour at any moment. 

Joe glanced out the window as well. “The weather forecast says it will rain in about an hour. 

“Are you still going to the office?” Skylar asked as she glanced at the time. 

Joe simply replied, “No.”

He could sense that Skylar’s mood was off today. 

Sitting in the passenger seat, Paul noticed that his presence might be too much of a third wheel. He glanced at the road ahead and said, “Mr. Martin, I can get out here. There’s a mall nearby, and I need to buy some skincare products for my mom.” 

He had a two–day holiday to use. Though this location was close to the office, it wouldn’t be a problem if he missed two days. 

With the boss not heading to work, he felt no need to go either and decided to use both days off. Joe simply replied with a noncommittal grunt. 

Lucas pulled over after checking the traffic conditions, allowing Paul to get out. 20 minutes later, Joe and Skylar arrived home.
