Chapter 737
Natalie giggled. She said, “I’m free. Mr. Powell isn’t working, so I’m on leave. However, I was scared you and Joe wanted to enjoy some alone time with each other, which is why I didn’t ask you out. Does that mean you have time to spend with me today?”
She seemed to be acting like how she did in university, Skylar was overjoyed to see that
Natalie continued, “Of course. Let’s have lunch together. I’ve just gotten my salary. It’ll be my treat this time!”
Half an hour later, Skylar hailed a cab and left Galaxy Villa.
After having lunch with Natalie, she would head to a car dealership to pick out
a car
At a junction, her cab was parked beside a brightly–colored sports car as they waited for the light to turn green.
The convertible’s driver was a woman wearing a crimson spaghetti–strap dress. Her hair was down to her waist, and her beauty was downright blinding. The man in the passenger’s seat had a flawless side profile. Although he seemed unapproachable, he held himself with poise and elegance.
They looked like a couple made in heaven.
Skylar felt as though someone had clenched her heart in their hands. She’d sunk into agony. From her reflection in her window, Skylar could see the color drain from her face.
The cab driver commented, “Love is a game for the rich! They look gorgeous together.”
Indeed, one could feel the sparks flying between the couple at a glance.
If it had been anyone else in the convertible, Skylar might’ve taken another peep at them. However, Joe and Vera were the ones in the convertible.
Skylar’s heart sank.
Thankfully, the light turned green.

As the car started moving, she glanced over.
Coincidentally, Vera said something to Joe. Whatever she’d said, it made Joe
smile.
Even while they were cruising on the waves of ecstasy in bed, Skylar had never seen Joe smile like that.
Skylar now understood why Vera was so forcefl back in the museum’s
parking lot when she ordered Skylar not to tak .at car.
It had been the same model as hers but in a different color.

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....
