Chapter 320
Joe’s cold and aloof stare sent shivers down everyone’s spine.
The group of guys who had initially wanted to ask for Skylar’s contact quickly backed off after being intimidated by Joe’s stern gaze.
After snapping some pictures, Skylar hurried back to grab her phone.
When she saw the photos Joe had taken, she blinked in disbelief. After checking the
others, she suspected Joe had done it intentionally.
“Mr. Martin, your photography skills are truly… something else!” Skylar exclaimed.
Joe had somehow made her look out of shape like she was only five feet tall instead
of her actual height of five foot and eight inches. She looked as if she was flattened
against the ground.
Joe hadn’t paid much attention to the photos he’d taken, but upon hearing Skylar’s critique, he glanced at them.
His expression turned serious as he examined the photos. Determined to redeem
himself, Joe suggested, “Let’s take them again.”
Skylar glanced at the now–long queue and shook her head. “Let’s find another spot. I
just wanted a nice keepsake photo.”
Skylar couldn’t help but wonder if Joe’s mind was preoccupied with the hospital
situation.
“Let’s go for a walk by the beach,” Joe offered, slipping one hand into his pocket while holding Skylar’s with the other as they strolled ahead.
Skylar was surprised. “There’s a beach nearby?”
It had already been dark when she’d arrived at the hotel. Her suite on the top floor
offered a panoramic view of Korel City, but Skylar hadn’t noticed the beach amidst the skyscrapers and neon lights..
It took them about ten minutes to reach the beach.
Chap 320
2/2
The sea breeze greeted them, prompting Skylar to kick off her shoes and revel in the sensation of sand between her toes. The tiny grains made her feel carefree, like a
child again.
Skylar turned to Joe, exhilarated. “This is wonderful! I want to come back tomorrow to catch the sunrise and sunset.”
Beneath the night sky, the vast sea seemed infinite, like an everlasting night.
Skylar’s infectious joy seemed to rub off on Joe, who wore a bright smile as he watched her. In his deep voice, he responded, “Alright.”
An hour later, they returned to the hotel. Skylar assumed Joe would leave, given his matters in Korel City. But, to her surprise, he stayed.

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....
