Chapter 402
is there something you need?” Jacky asked coldly.
Jeffery furrowed his brow at Jacky’s aloof demeanor. “We’re here to confirm your relationship with my daughter
Peter chimed in, “It’s Skylar Sullivan.”
Baffled, Jacky furrowed his brow, pondering whether he had any relationship with Skylar. “Ms. Sullivan?” he inquired.
Suddenly, a curious incident came to mind. John had mentioned the Williams family approaching the Gardners, questioning his relationship with Skylar.
They believed she was his mistress and hoped to exploit their connection to escape their predicament. Now, they were desperate enough to seek him out.
“She’s my client,” Jacky stated firmly.
Knowing how much Joe valued Skylar, Jacky wondered who dared claim a relationship with her. John had mentioned Joe’s displeasure at seeing photos of Skylar working on his phone. Jacky didn’t want to spark Joe’s jealousy.
“Just a client? We’re all intelligent people here, Mr. Lourdes. You wouldn’t represent Skylar solely because of her finances. Many in Jipsburg City couldn’t afford your services, let alone someone like Skylar,” Peter stated frankly.
Despite the Williamses approaching Jacky for legal help previously, he wouldn’t even grant them a meeting, let alone listen to their case. Peter found it difficult to believe there was no relationship at all.
Jeffrey spoke gravely, “Since we’ve come to you, Mr. Lourdes, we would appreciate your honesty. You can simply tell us the truth.”
“The truth?” Jacky’s voice deepened.
“Is it true you’ve been involved with Skylar, using your connections to get her on Alexander’s team and halt the television program?” Peter wasted no time, getting straight to the point.
The Williams family was desperate for any opportunity to turn things around.
After hearing their accusations, Jacky discreetly activated his phone’s recording function.
“So?” he said.
“If you have a relationship with Skylar, we hope you can help our family. Our company is in trouble. Banks are refusing loans.
“You wouldn’t want Skylar’s family to drag you down, would you? Help us, and it can benefit your relationship with Skylar. She’ll be grateful, even if you don’t marry her. She’ll be devoted to you, willingly becoming yours. We’ll support you,” Peter laid out his scheme.
The Willems Group was in dire straite. The company was doomed if they didn’t come up with a solution
Jeffery nodded. “That’s our only request. If you can assist, I can ensure Skylar becomes your lifelong mistress. She’ll obey you faithfully and won’t interfere with your family.”
The Williams family disliked Skylar. If she could be of service, then perhaps her existence wouldn’t be
entirely in vain,

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....
