Gloria understood that Kevin was a madman. Everything about him, from his words to his actions, reeked of insanity. Yet, she couldn't shake the feeling that he was being serious.
"Anyway, I won't be alive much longer. I originally planned to write you a letter after I die, but who knew you'd end up pregnant?" Kevin's frustration was palpable. But it seemed he had talked too much today, and he started to cough from exhaustion.
Skylar placed her hands protectively over her abdomen, still struggling to believe that a new life was growing within her. After calculating her cycle, she confirmed that her period was indeed three days late.
Though she had experienced delays in the past, she now believed that she was pregnant.
A child that should be eagerly awaited was now…
Noticing Skylar's dazed expression, Gloria stepped in quickly to support her. "Don't listen to his nonsense! He's crazy, a solitary man who has lived alone his whole life. He can't stand to see others happy, and his words are not to be trusted."
"If I hadn't left a few things at Avalon Residence, Joe would have survived, and his connection with Skylar would have been severed long ago. I do this because of Viola, who wants to see Skylar and Joe together. She enjoys meddling in fate.
"I don't care! That child must not stay. You have to end this pregnancy within three days. And you two can't have another child for at least five years," Kevin spoke with unwavering certainty.
Gloria's face turned ashen. "You! Who would believe your words?"
"Shut up! If all you want is a great-grandchild, then get ready to watch either your grandson die—or Skylar. Make your choice." Kevin was furious.

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....
