Chapter 156
Skylar suddenly remembered adding Annie’s contact information to WhatsApp.
Before checking the message, she glanced at Joe. She still hadn’t figured out what was going on between Joe and Annie. Joe’s thoughts were deeply hidden; neither she nor anyone else could guess his intentions.
Annie was obviously interested in Joe. The way Rowan and a few others acted that night suggested that their relationship wasn’t superficial.
“Is something wrong?” Joe asked, turning to look at her. His eyes were cold and inscrutable, easily instilling fear in one’s heart.
Skylar immediately shook her head.
Joe reached up to massage his temple. Work frustration must have seeped into his demeanor; he must
have startled her.
“If there’s anything, you can ask me directly. We’re a married couple now.” Joe said.
A fake married couple under contract, Skylar added silently.
“There’s nothing right now. If there is, I’ll be sure to ask you.”
Joe hummed in acknowledgement and returned to his work.
Skylar opened her WhatsApp and read Annie’s message. “Ms. Sullivan, will you be available this Saturday? There are some things I’d like to discuss with you in person
Wasn’t Saturday tomorrow? She had to return home to see Janine tomorrow. After that, she would be visiting Charles at his workplace. There wasn’t much time left after that.
“Unfortunately, I’m booked tomorrow, but I’m free the day after,” Skylar replied.
Annie responded a few minutes later. “Alright, then let’s meet at Mountain Mist Restaurant the day after
tomorrow at noon.”
“Sure, see you then,” Skylar replied.
After navigating through the congested sections of the road, they arrived at Pearlhall Residence smoothly. Joe and Skylar got out of the car and held hands, their fingers interlocked. Skylar’s fingers felt a little stiff; the intimacy of interlocking their fingers was still unfamiliar to her.
Edgar saw them holding hands and couldn’t help but smile. “Mrs. Martin Senior is waiting for you inside. Mr. and Mrs. Martin, the more I see you two together, the more I’m convinced you’re a perfect match.”
When they exited the car just now, it looked like a scene straight out of a movie.
There was a saying–how did it go? A match made in heaven!
If either of them were replaced, it wouldn’t achieve this effect.

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....
