Chapter 534
Paul sighed in relief when he heard that Skylar would arrive in a few minutes. He closed the door and Stood outside.
Paul called Joe’s doctor and described his condition. After listening to Paul’s description, he smiled and said, “He’ll be fine. Isn’t Skylar arriving soon? She’ll be more effective than medicine. You should plan the demise of those perpetrators rather than worry about Joe.”
Paul was well–versed in handling such matters.
In the past, Joe’s doctor would come over to help him in such situations. However, Joe had to go through immense suffering in the process. Thankfully, he had Skylar now.
Not before long, Skylar arrived.
Skylar asked, “What’s going on?”
Paul had no time to explain. Joe was probably in a cold shower as they spoke. He opened the door and pushed Skylar in. As he did so, he said simply, “Mr. Martin has been drugged with an aphrodisiac.”
“What?” Skylar was pushed into the room by Paul amidst her confused exclamation.
The door slammed shut behind her. Skylar walked in slowly. She could hear the water running in the washroom. Her heart was pounding.
Joe had ingested an aphrodisiac. She knew the role she’d been called to play.
The bathroom door was half open. It was evident how much of a hurry Joe had been in.
Skylar gently pushed the door open. There was no hint of steam in the bathroom. She felt a little chilly as she stepped into the shower area.
Was Joe taking a cold shower?
Indeed, she could see Joe’s muscled figure under the shower.
Skylar was given an even better view of Joe when he looked over.
Joe stood tall, with broad shoulders. He had a sharp jawline and an aloof expression. Every feature about him was perfect. His attractive muscles were the objects of every woman’s desire.
However, his eyes gleamed coldly. It was as if he were a noble king looking down at his people from a mountain.
Joe’s voice was hoarse but sexy as he asked, “Annie?”
However, Skylar’s face fell upon hearing that.
“Annie?”
She suddenly recalled seeing Annie while she was parking. She had been with a middle–aged couple. They must be her parents.
However, they seemed to be rushing somewhere. Skylar was in a hurry to see Joe. Thus, she did not think much of it.

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....
