Chapter 550
Skylar could tell that Joe was furious through his tone.
Lucas‘ back was stiff while color drained from Skylar’s face.
Annie waited for a long time. After she got home, Grayson and Sabrina asked her for updates every half an hour. They wanted to know whether Steven had given her response.
Annie panicked when there was no news from Steven by 9:00 pm.
Steven…
What had Skylar told Steven?
any
When Annie left, Steven had said that he would believe her. Was this just a lie to console and placate her?
“Why does this feel a little off? Haven’t you talked it out with Steven? Seeing as he likes you, he should definitely believe every word you say,” Sabrina said. She was in doubt of Steven.
Grayson did not want to continue waiting. He said, “Annie, call him and ask him about his decision.”
Annie did not need Grayson to remind her. She wanted to call him herself.
With her phone in her hand, Annie suddenly felt like backing down.
Sabrina could tell. She frowned and said, “Are you scared of calling him? Now is the time to test him. If he really loves you, he’ll believe you and help us out of our crisis. If he hesitates and would rather see whether we can make it through this crisis, there’s no need to waste time on him. We won’t let you marry him.”
If it were another man from a poor background, he would’ve been racking his brains out trying to appease the Silvers. If he could help them with their troubles, they would
definitely support Annie’s decision to stay with him.
“Sabrina is right,” said Grayson. He was immensely dissatisfied with Steven.
Annie looked at Sabrina and Grayson. She didn’t know what to say or how to explain to them that their high–and–mighty attitude wouldn’t work on Steven.
Steven’s future could outshine that of the Silvers. In addition, they might not be able to stay in Jipsburg.
Annie took a deep breath and called Steven. It rang for a while, but no one picked up.
What was Steven doing? Was he still talking to Skylar?

“What? Is he not picking up?” asked Sabrina nervously. She’d noticed what had happened.
Annie gave him another call. Still, no one picked up. Her heart sank. She called twice more.
Steven was definitely not working at this hour. He was on leave today. In addition, Skylar would be seeing him that night. Even if they had much to discuss, he did not need to keep
her away.
Annie stood up suddenly and said, “I’ll go find him.”

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....
