Another maid listened for a while, her face filled with confusion. "I didn't hear anything. I only heard Mr. Manfred talking to himself."
"Did I mishear? Could it be that Mr. Manfred, living alone here with no one to talk to, has started to lose his mind? The more I think about it, the more it seems possible," the other maid wondered aloud.
"It seems possible."
"Wait, let's get closer and take a look. Mrs. Atkinson told us to keep a close eye, just in case someone is sneaking around helping Mr. Manfred."
The two maids murmured to each other as they made their way to the courtyard. They quietly approached the window and gently poked a hole in the paper panel to get a better view.
What they saw next was beyond belief.
Manfred was talking to himself while eating. His eyes would occasionally gaze lovingly at the empty space across from him, as though someone were really there.
The two maids immediately turned pale with fear. They hurriedly left the scene.
A moment later, they were standing before Zea, recounting what they had just witnessed. They vividly described the chilling scene, with one maid adding a few words after another. Zea frowned deeply, trying to process it.
"Talking to himself?" she repeated, her expression tense.

The readers' comments on the novel: My Flash Romance With the Richest Mogul
Can more chapters be uploaded please . I have been anxiously waiting to read more. Thank you...
More chapters please...
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....
