Chapter 160
Joe suddenly found himself enjoying this moment. He could sleep soundly the whole night and wake up next to someone he felt safe with.
He decided to find a time to talk to Skylar. He could truly see her as his wife if she could accept a simple
life without the elusive notion of romance,
After Skylar woke up, she had breakfast with Gloria. Then, she suddenly recalled her promise to visit Caleb at the hospital.
She called him, apologized, and promised to visit him tomorrow. Nonetheless, she could sense his disappointment.
Hence, she decided to make amends by gifting him something on her visit tomorrow. After hanging up,
she hurried to Janine’s house.
On the way, she stopped by the supermarket and bought a bunch of things. Janine was already waiting:
meanwhile, Harvey was studying.
As Skylar stepped into the house, Janine said, “You bought too many clothes for Harvey yesterday. He’s
still growing, and those clothes might not fit him for long.
“Plus, I saw the price. They are too expensive. You’ve just started working. Spend it on things you like.”
Harvey had been lectured all morning. Janine was displeased. Harvey regretted telling Janine.
“Mom, I’ve made quite a bit of money now. A few clothes won’t hurt. Besides, Harvey looks handsome in them. So, it’s worth the money,” Skylar persuaded.
“I’m worried you’re not treating yourself well.” Janine understood Skylar the best. She had always shouldered burdens silently, never complaining because she didn’t want them to worry.
This money wasn’t easy for Skylar to earn.
“Skye, let’s return them,” Harvey said, feeling he didn’t need to dress well.
Skylar turned to Harvey and said, “Since we’ve bought them, just wear them.” Then she turned to Janine and continued, “Mom, I didn’t mistreat myself. Look at what I bought.”
“I’ll cook a few of my signature dishes for the both of you. Skye, take some of the food with you when you visit Charles. Charles has been so busy lately. He even complained about missing home–cooked meals.”
“Okay, Mom,” Skylar replied.
If it weren’t for Harvey having to catch up on homework, she would have brought him along for a visit.
Charles had recently joined a new film crew, landing the role of the male fourth lead. It was his first time, and he cherished the opportunity. He was incredibly hardworking. Who knew? He might become the main lead someday. In Skylar’s opinion, his acting skills were far superior to Samuel’s

Skylar also bought some designer clothes and shoes for Charles, intending to surprise him during the visit.
After lunch, Skylar carried Janine’s lunchbox and hurried toward Charles‘ film crew. Their film crew’s location today happened to be at Willowbrook Manor.

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....
