Skylar stood frozen, overwhelmed by the various hurtful speculations and gossip echoing around her. As she looked back up at the rooftop, she saw Joe lifting Rosa and carrying her down.
Many cameras captured the sight of the two embracing, leaving Skylar feeling stiff. All around her, people celebrated.
"Look at Mr. Sowle. He must realize how important Ms. Reese is. Seeing them together is so touching. It almost makes me cry. They are the true couple. That mistress should just get as far away as possible."
"Exactly! Just look at how urgent Mr. Sowle seems. You only understand someone's worth when you risk losing them. I bet Mr. Sowle won't dare mention breaking up again."
"Quick! Find me information on the mistress. I want first-hand details."
Skylar slowly averted her gaze, stepped back, and then walked away from the whirlwind of chaos.

News about Rosa's suicide attempt and Ned's realization of her importance, as well as the identity of the mistress, quickly flooded the internet. Some influences in Murida acted like detectives, piecing together clues from various hints.
During the rooftop incident, Rosa had mentioned Skylar's name, and the drone footage captured that. However, people couldn't pinpoint exactly who Skylar was, leading many to actively search for her and request interviews with the involved parties.
Some people within the Clusian community were well aware of Skylar. When they heard she was the mistress involved with Ned and Rosa, they were surprised. Of course, many who had interacted with Skylar scoffed at such news.
Regardless, they all called to check in on her. Even if Skylar didn't want Gloria to find out, Gloria would still learn about the news.

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....
