"You..."
Simona initially wanted to scold Stephen, maybe even slap him. But as she lifted her gaze, she noticed the worry on Stephen's face.
Suddenly, she found herself unable to say the harsh words she wanted to. Moreover, a thought crept into her mind that made her want to forgive him.
After all, Stephen hadn't done it on purpose.
Also, he was really quite pitiful since the online harassment started. So, for him to come to see her must mean he genuinely cared for her.
He seemed truly remorseful.
Besides, everyone makes mistakes. One mistake shouldn't condemn someone forever. None of this would have happened if he had met her earlier and started a relationship with her.
Stephen noticed the rapid change in Simona's expression. It made his eyes widen, and his heart raced.
Did it work? Yes, it worked!
That man hadn't lied to him. It was a well-spent 50 thousand dollars!
…
Janine originally planned to have a quick lunch at the office. She had asked someone to order food, and it arrived moments before her phone rang.
It was Ted.
"Let's grab lunch together, Janine. I happen to need your advice on something."
Ted had mentioned before that he wanted to consult her about something, so Janine readily agreed. "Which restaurant?"
"I'll come pick you up."
"Okay."

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....
