Chapter 185
Once again, she learned a profound lesson that alcohol led to trouble. But since the incident had already happened, there was no need to dwell on it any longer.
“I think you should forget about this unpleasant experience and not let it occupy your mind.” Skylar typed out a message swiftly and sent it.
Then, she took a relaxing shower and lay on her bed, looking at the photos sent by Alexander. As she scrolled through them, a restoration plan formed in her mind. She envisioned how it would look once she repaired it.
Meanwhile, at the airport, Joe looked at his WhatsApp message with a faint smile playing on his lips. Beside him, Paul felt a chill run down his spine upon seeing his smile.
It was as if he had witnessed something frightening. Why was Joe suddenly smiling for no reason? This wasn’t his boss‘ usual demeanor. Why was he staring at his phone and smiling all of a sudden?
The next moment, Paul caught sight of the WhatsApp message with Skylar on Joe’s phone. He came to
an epiphany
He asked, “You seem to have a good relationship with Ms. Sullivan nowadays, Mr. Martin. Do you like her?
This question made the smile freeze on Joe’s lips. He exited WhatsApp with a deadpan expression and
turned off the screen.
In a chilly tone, he said, “Not exactly.”
“But you’ve been chatting with her a lot recently,” Paul remarked.
He spent a lot of time being around Joe day in and day out, so he would be the first to notice any
changes. In the past, he rarely saw the esteemed Mr. Martin demonstrate any sort of patience when it
came to messaging others.
Even when chatting with his friends, Joe was always succinct. Just now, even though he didn’t need to
type on his phone, he still smiled at the screen. Paul was sure something was going on between them. He
was even willing to bet on it with his life.
“We’re just talking about Grandma’s situation. Why do I feel like I’m not giving you enough work to keep
you occupied?” Joe asked icily, cocking an eyebrow.
Paul was at a loss for words. Indeed, he wasn’t very busy, but he would like to keep it that way. He
immediately made the motion of zipping his mouth shut.
“Mr. Martin?” A surprised voice reached their ears.
Joe glanced over. “Marcus?”
Marcus was accompanied by a beautiful lady with a voluptuous figure. They had just arrived at the airport and made their way through security.

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....
