Every member of the Martin family knew what these negative items could bring them. Each person had their motives and was quite shrewd.
They all realized that once Ernest passed away, their branch of the family would undoubtedly fall apart, and their circumstances would not compare to what they had now.
Hence, if they didn't make plans now, it would be too late to act when everything was lost. They weren't fools.
They silently took back their respective negative items and talismans, not bothering to ask anyone about their usefulness.
At that moment, they all believed their negative items were more potent and would grant them their desires.
…
In the car, Skylar shared the details of the negative items with Joe. Joe listened without much expression. With his memory loss, he felt no familial connection to Ernest or the others.
He had already learned about their past actions from Paul, and his feelings toward them were even more distant now.
"They brought this upon themselves. They'll have to deal with the consequences. We don't have to concern ourselves with them," Joe stated.
Skylar playfully asked, "Don't you want to know what impact these negative items could have on you?"
Joe glanced at her, his deep-set eyes reflecting only the woman before him. With a confident tone, he replied, "With you by my side, those things can't harm me."
Skylar found herself momentarily speechless before she couldn't help but laugh. "You're right about that."
They had developed a tacit understanding between them.
Now that she had identified the negative items and fully understood their nature, there was no way she would leave without taking action.

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....
