Chapter 286
“Bullshit! What the hell are you spouting?” Samuel’s face was flushed with anger. He wasn’t about to be intimidated by Charles.
Why would he be afraid of a brute from the countryside?
“Enough! If you two keep this up and someone takes a video of it, the director will be furious. Just drop it!” The assistant director, Vincent Brown, stepped in to break up the fight.
Charles shot Samuel a fierce glare, but he respected Vincent enough to back off. However, it didn’t mean he forgave Samuel.
To Charles, Samuel was just a coward who was all bark and no bite.
Feigning his composure, Samuel said, “I’ll let it go this time for Vincent’s sake, but
there won’t be a next time.”
“You’re right. If there’s a next time, I’ll beat you to a pulp.” Charles clenched his fists, ready for a fight. He had never backed down from a brawl.
At Charles’s intimidating stance, uncertainty flickered in Samuel’s eyes. He cursed
inwardly, thinking Charles was nothing but a brute.
Still, he retorted, “Charles, even if you had a hundred chances, you wouldn’t dare!”
“Alright, enough! It’s getting late now. Everyone, head back to the hotel and get some
rest. We’ve got an early shoot tomorrow. Keep it together!” Vincent impatiently urged
them to disperse.
No one else dared to say anything at this point. Though deep down, Samuel harbored a growing hatred for Charles.
Once he got into his Ferrari, Samuel called Peter. “I just saw Skylar. She was with
some boy toy. We used to think too highly of her. Now, she’s just a self–degrading
whore. There’s no way she’s behind the trouble at our company. You are overthinking it.”
“Don’t speak of Skylar anymore. I don’t want to hear about her. Focus on your acting.
By the way, if you have money in your account, send Kenny a few hundred thousand,
Peter replied.
Hearing Peter’s impatience, Samuel didn’t push further. He didn’t have much money: in his account. His high spending habits left him with little savings, but being a
celebrity meant he earned a lot as well.
Thus, he transferred 200 thousand dollars to Kenny and then called him.
“Kenny, I’ve sent you some money. From now on, Maisy is our only sister. Don’t bring up Skylar’s relationship with us to anyone,” Samuel said.
He continued, “It’s so embarrassing. I just saw her with a random man. How much can she make at Gardner Group? Instead of picking herself up after being dumped, she went for a boy toy. It’s disgusting.”
“Don’t talk about Skylar like that,” Kenny replied. “She’s our sister, after all. And it’s better to clear up some things; last time, we misunderstood her. As for Maisy… Skylar indeed can’t compare to her.”
His tone became a bit strange toward the end. But Samuel didn’t notice over the
phone.
Samuel had just been beaten by Charles. Now, he had a head full of resentment toward everyone related to the man.
“Skylar has nothing on Maisy. Maisy would never casually sleep with other men,”
Samuel said, full of confidence.

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....
