sily.
owan took it seriously. “I got it. Don’t worry. I’ll head to Avalon Residence right now. I’ll call izzie on the way and guide her on how to handle them. I’ll get Joe out safely, I promise. Tell oward to get ready.”
here wasn’t time to question why Skylar and Lizzie knew each other or why Skylar was still

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....
