Chapter 516
Natalie recalled Skylar mentioning marrying Joe, so it was true. Previously, she didn’t believe a word Skylar said. Now, she felt like a fool.
Skylar hadn’t expected to reveal this to Natalie right now. “Everything I told you before was true. He’s my husband.”
Natalie’s lips twitched as she reminded herself to stay calm. Then, she hinted meaningfully, saying, “No wonder Andrew was so shocked earlier. It turned out he knew about your relationship with Joe. You better go over there.
“We can settle things here, but you need to explain yourself properly over there. You can make it up to me in a couple of days. If I had known he was your husband, I wouldn’t have brought up anything about your husband being my cousin, the detective.”
She patted Skylar on the shoulder. “Good luck. I’m getting a cab.”
Jacky had left without anyone noticing. Natalie had slipped away too.

Skylar faced Joe’s intense and inscrutable gaze. She took a deep breath and walked over.
As Skylar settled into the car, Joe’s first words were, “Is your husband a detective? How did you end up with this guy?”
Joe vaguely recalled Natalie introducing Skylar to a man who seemed to be a detective. Joe wondered if she thought of him first in moments of danger.
Joe pondered why she hadn’t thought to use his name in that situation. It seemed like she didn’t realize the name “Joe Martin” carried more weight.
“Well… at the time, we didn’t think much about it. It was just something we mentioned casually? Unexpectedly, Andrew took it seriously,” Skylar explained helplessly.
She really hadn’t expected Joe to find out.
Joe seemed skeptical. “Have you taken a liking to that detective?”
That man did seem to attract women. For some reason, it made him feel
uneasy.

Skylar was taken aback. She looked into Joe’s cold and inscrutable eyes.
She asked directly, “Are you jealous?”
Joe frowned. “You’re overthinking it.‘
He would never be jealous.

After watching Joe’s car leave, Natalie prepared to hail a cab. At this hour, there were plenty of cabs on the road.
Natalie hailed a cab, wondering what was happening between Skylar and Joe. She didn’t know how they ended up together, and there were no signs of it.
Skylar really made a big move.
Skylar was able to marry a man like Joe. She was quite impressive.
As Natalie silently criticized, a car pulled up in front of her.
Upon seeing the familiar car parked in front of her instead of a cab, her

expression changed abruptly. She came to a sudden halt.

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....
