The next day, early in the morning, a scream echoed through the Atkinson residence, startling everyone.
The commotion reached all corners of the house, especially disturbing Zea, who had spent a sleepless night.
She had endured hours of loud noises, making her face turn dark with irritation.
Just as dawn broke and the noise finally subsided, she managed to fall asleep. But in the middle of her deep slumber, a few more piercing screams jolted her awake.
Rhea rushed in, looking flustered. "Mrs. Atkinson, Fern and Virginia… they've… they've climbed into Mr. Randall's bed. They served him together last night."
Zea's face instantly turned ashen. "What did you say?"
Rhea slapped her thighs in frustration. "No wonder there was so much noise last night! I never would have thought it. Mr. Randall himself seemed surprised at first, but then he said to keep it quiet and mentioned he plans to take them both as companions."
Zea's anger flared. "Has he gone mad? He's never taken another woman all these years. Now, at his age, he's going to bring them in? Does he want everyone in Vlario to gossip about him being too old to be acting like this?"
Zea had been contemplating how to deal with Fern and Virginia, whom she had sent to ruin Manfred. But now, they had gone and seduced Randall.
This was intolerable.
Randall now even planned to take both of them as his companions.
Rhea spoke solemnly, "Mrs. Atkinson, I think Mr. Randall has truly made up his mind this time. Everyone knows about Mr. Cyril's health, and Mr. Manfred has been absent for so long. People will think Mr. Randall is taking these women in to secure heirs."
"Secure heirs?" Zea ground her teeth.
If those two women managed to bear Randall's child, there would be no future for her or Cyril in the Atkinson residence. Zea knew Manfred well. He was a cold and heartless man.

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....
