Chapter 506
Edgar suggested, “How about we arrange for the maids who clean Galaxy Villa every day to discreetly poke a few holes in Mr. Martin’s condoms? Just a few pricks in each one.”
Edgar rarely thought up such schemes. However, as he spoke, his eyes lit up as if he were personally going to carry out the deed.
Gloria’s eyes sparkled with intrigue. Suddenly, she remembered something. “Is that how your grandson was conceived?”
Edgar suddenly began coughing uncontrollably. His eyes darted around nervously. He was at a loss, unsure how to answer Gloria’s question.
Gloria seemed to see through everything. She said, “No need to rush. Let’s wait a bit longer until Skye’s health is fully recovered. Besides, those troublesome people will be back from abroad in a few days. They’ll have a lot to deal with, so it’s better to wait until everything is settled before having a child.”

Her expression grew serious as she spoke. Edgar also sobered up. He didn’t dare to say more.

In Jipsburg City, heavycain began falling. The air turned damp, and the sky grew dark. It was perfect for Austin’s scene, which required heavy rain.
The director, Blake Booth, had been waiting for such weather for over a month. The scenes that were pre–arranged would all be completed today.
Natalie was well–informed about the plan. Hence, she arrived early according to Blake’s provided time.
When Austin arrived on set and saw Natalie, he was surprised. “You…”
Natalie immediately flashed her usual carefree smile. “I’m here to work today, right on time! I’ve got hot water, towels, and fresh clothes ready. I won’t let your
catch a cold.”
Austin looked at Natalie and smiled. “Don’t worry. I’m not that fragile. It’s just a
bit of rain.

Hank was standing nearby. He shook his head and said, “You have a commercial and a variety show to shoot tomorrow. You should be careful
today.”
Over the years, Hank had been by Austin’s side, helping him navigate through numerous challenges.
A few rain scenes were nothing, but Austin had injured himself doing many dangerous stunts. His knees still ached whenever it rained.
Hank couldn’t help but feel that Austin had an unusual attachment to Natalie. Although he knew some matters and felt pity for Natalie, he didn’t want Austin to make a mistake that would ruin everything they had worked for.
The scenes were shot seamlessly, thanks to the skilled performance of Austin and his co–stars. They wrapped up quickly.
Everything Natalie had prepared came in handy, including the hot peppermint tea she had bought from a nearby hotel while Austin was filming.
In the car, Austin downed the hot peppermint tea in one go. Hank subtly raised an eyebrow. He had never seen Austin willingly drink hot peppermint tea before.
Hank thought to himself, “Who are you kidding by saying you’re indifferent to Natalie?”
“Did you drink any?” Austin asked Natalie)
Natalie shook her head. “I didn’t get caught in the rain, so there’s no need for me to drink anything.”
Austin glanced at her. He noticed how much thinner she looked. “Have you been sick these past few days and not eating?”

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....
