Chapter 484
Skylar’s expression turned serious when she heard that Jeremy was having an affair. She gently suggested, “Let’s calm down. I bought two cups of your favorite milkshakes on the way here. Let’s sip at it and relax for a bit. Then, why don’t you tell me how you determined that he’s cheating on you?”
As Natalie listened to Skylar console her, she gradually settled down.
After shutting the door, they curled up on the couch.
Skylar patiently waited for Natalie. At the same time, she recalled Annabelle’s utterings of “Mr. Hughes “. Were they the same person
after all?
An hour passed, yet Natalie still hadn’t reached home. Jeremy’s heart pounded in trepidation. He had called Natalie multiple times, but she

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....
