Skylar found it hard to believe that Joe marrying Rosa could attract such a large crowd. Her thoughts were a bit scattered as she took in the scene.
"They're not here yet? Then we might as well take a moment to rest," Gloria remarked, slightly surprised as she glanced at her wristwatch.
Inwardly, she wondered if the delay meant that Joe might not show up at all. If he really didn't come, he would truly be proving himself her grandson.
The idea that he had been forced into marriage by someone with hidden motives was simply not something Joe would tolerate. Of course, she kept that thought to herself.
She didn't want to give Skylar any false hope only for things to turn out differently.
…
Meanwhile, Rosa was being assisted from her ward to the elevator and finally to the hospital's underground parking lot.
She hadn't gotten much rest the entire night. After the surgery, which involved both a wrist injury and a suicide attempt, her body felt extremely weak.
Despite the doctor's protests, she insisted on being discharged. Once she was helped into the car, Rosa barely had the strength to sit upright. She forced herself to look around the interior. "Where's Ned?"
Not seeing him, Rosa's face paled. She fought against the dizziness to question Brian and Calvin.

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....
