The next morning, Ernest arrived at Pearlhall Residence. This time, his attitude was much more sincere.
After learning that Gloria was resting, he did not insist on seeing her immediately but cordially invited Skylar to visit Avalon Residence.
Compared to a few years ago, Ernest looked much worse. His complexion was pale, and he had lost weight, requiring a wheelchair to get around.
With Joe absent today, Skylar hesitated over whether to go to Avalon Residence alone.
"Mrs. Martin, if you decide to go, you should take Eden with you," Edgar said softly to Skylar.
Eden Hansen was the security guard for Pearlhall Residence. He had been trained in martial arts since childhood and spent his youth immersed in the rigorous routines of a martial arts school.
Whenever Gloria was at Pearlhall Residence, Eden would be on duty.
Eden was very alert and quick to react in dangerous situations. While Avalon Residence wasn't particularly perilous, having Eden with her would certainly provide Skylar some peace of mind.
Skylar nodded and replied. "Alright, I'll have Eden accompany me."
She felt that her suspicions about Avalon Residence could only be confirmed through her own visit. She also needed to see if the items left by Kevin could truly help Joe. It was still uncertain, and she needed to discover the truth herself.
…
The journey to Avalon Residence took a little over two hours. The car sped along the road, with Ernest's vehicle leading the way, driving rapidly. It was clear that Ernest was in quite a hurry.
Lucas complained, "Why are they going so fast?"

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....
