Chapter 567
Joe had spent the night at Rowan’s place. He was momentarily disoriented when he woke up and saw that he wasn’t at Galaxy Villa.
Rowan was standing at the door with a cup of water. “I called Paul last night and told him you’d be late to the company today. What happened to you? I’ve never seen you drink like that before. Do you treat alcohol like it’s just water?”
Joe got out of bed. He ignored Rowan’s questions and asked coldly, “Where’s the bathroom?”
“Over there.”
While Joe was in the shower, Rowan ordered breakfast. By the time Joe came out, the food had already arrived.
Joe had no appetite and headed for the door. “You eat it.”
“I ordered a lot of food. Aren’t you going to eat a bit? There are both Wiscadian and Floan cuisines,” Rowan asked.
“I’m not interested.”
“By the way, Jenny just messaged me. She said she’ll be back in about a month. Where is she going to stay?” Rowan inquired. Jenny’s message gave him the impression that she wanted to stay. at Galaxy Villa.
Although Jenny hadn’t been direct about it, she had no relatives in Jipsburg City. She used to stay at Pearlhall Residence and moved to the school’s dormitory during high school. She only came back during the winter and summer breaks.
After nearly four years of college, she rarely returned to Jipsburg. When Jenny returned to Jipsburg for work, she would need a place to stay.
Joe glanced at Rowan as he reached the door. “Since she’s an adult now, she can live on her own. I gave her a house when she turned 18. It should be sufficient for her future needs.”
He had fulfilled all the promises he made to Jenny’s mother.
Upon hearing Joe’s words, Rowan was momentarily stunned. “Are you going to leave her on her own out there? Isn’t it too unsafe for a young woman to live alone? I remember Galaxy Villa being. spacious and having many rooms. She could stay there.”
Joe’s eyes darkened.
Rowan quickly realized his mistake. “I was just suggesting. I overstepped.”
“Galaxy Villa is my marital home with Skylar. Do you think there’s space for a third person in our home?” Joe’s voice was cold as he retorted.
Rowan’s expression changed.
As the door closed, Rowan muttered a curse.
“Skylar is now more important to Joe than Jenny. It’s clear now that Jenny is merely a promise to him. It’s a pity for Jenny. She still doesn’t realize and is determined to get involved with Joe.” Rowan. frowned deeply.
A few minutes later, Jenny called.
“You mentioned Joe was staying at your place. I didn’t think much of it then, but shouldn’t he be at Galaxy Villa? Why was he drinking

so much? Are other girls still allowed to get close to him? Has something happened between him and Skylar?”

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....
