“How shameless,” chuckled Caleb.
Samuel didn’t think much of Caleb. However, he was terrified by the Gardner family. Thus, he said meekly, “My dad hasn’t said anything wrong. I would’ve readily handed my phone over if it were me.”
Sadie’s face paled.
They were done for.
Without her realizing it, everyone in their family had lost their minds. How could they act as though they were in the right? Yet, she used to think nothing of it and even justified their actions.
Jeffrey ordered, Joe must’ve been the caller. Skylar, take me to him!”
He had been so close. If Joe had let him finish and agreed to his proposal, there would have been hoper
for his company.
It had been a treacherous climb to where he was today. He couldn’t lose it! Not at all!
Skyler scoffed before saying, “Go to sleep, Mr. Williams. Anything is possible in your dreams.”
She then walked downstairs.
Caleb trailed after Skylar to protect her.
Upon seeing Jeffrey go after them, Caleb pointed at them and threatened, “Take another step forward. and I’ll make sure you regret it. If you bully Skylar, you bully me. The Gardner family will not have mercy on

His threat succeeded in intimidating them. No one continued following them.
Jeffrey and his men only dared to chase them once they’d left the villa.

Many men in black suits got out. All of them were tall and muscular, clearly combat–skilled bodyguards.

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....
