Chapter 199
Christopher looked at Skylar in shock. “You… Are you serious?”
He wasn’t sure if what Maisy told him was true or not at this point. Skylar didn’t seem like a mistress.
She hit him yesterday, and now she was expressing her intention to sue him.
Christopher stared at Skylar and found her unfamiliar. He remembered the previous Skylar would unconditionally believe him no matter what he said.
This gave him the confidence that even if she caught him in bed with Malsy, she would still believe him after he explained. But now….
“Why are you still pestering me after we broke up? I don’t think you want me back. You just want my money, don’t you? Save your breath, Christopher. I’ll have to hand it to you for managing to scam all that money from me in the past using various ways.
“But if you try to do that again, I’ll make sure you rot in prison,” Skylar warned icily.
The ex–classmates who came to help Christopher were long intimidated by the threat of being sued. They feared that the surveillance camera had recorded what they said that could be used against them.
Silently, without saying a word, they slipped away. Under Steven’s piercing and frigid gaze, the other onlookers felt that they should stop being busybodies there too.
In just a few minutes, Christopher was left alone. He felt helpless.
Christopher regretted his actions deeply. “Skylar, trust me. I will treat you well in the future, and I will never hurt you again. It doesn’t make sense for you not to give me another chance.”
He couldn’t understand how she could be so cold–hearted and resolute.
Steven took out his phone and said coldly, “Say one more word, and I’ll call the police right now.”
“Call the police, Steven. He harassed me yesterday, and now he’s bothering you. Who knows what he’ll do next? It’s necessary for the police to teach him a lesson now.” Skylar looked at Christopher with a smirk, but her words were directed at Steven.
Christopher’s face turned pale, and he looked gloomy. “Skylar, are you sure you won’t regret this?”
*Regret, my foot!” Steven cursed angrily. He couldn’t understand how Christopher seemed to have no
sense of shame at all.
Skylar sneered in silence.
Christopher gritted his teeth. “There are too many misunderstandings between us now. My mother is undergoing surgery soon. After her surgery, we really should have a good talk.
“I don’t want our relationship to be built on misunderstandings. I’m sorry for causing you trouble today, 17 treat you to dinner as an apology.”
Chapter 199
“There’s no need for dinner or apologies. Just leave,” Steven said, driving him away.
He understood now that Christopher could be utterly shameless or super earnest when trying to get his way. Now, he was admitting his mistakes with a heartfelt attitude. It was a waste for him to expound his energy on chasing after a woman with his Machiavellian abilities.
Christopher was a scumbag through and through.

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....
