My Flash Romance With the Richest Mogul novel Chapter 755

Chapter 755 

Joe wondered if Aiken truly had feelings for Skylar

No, I’ve just been swamped with work. It’s been a while since I last worked, and the workload these past few days has been overwhelming,Skylar explained

Joe’s lips pressed into a thin line. Look at me when you speak.

Joe pondered whether Skylar thought he hadn’t noticed

Skylar lifted her gaze, locking eyes with Joe. His eyes seemed infinite, like an endless galaxy. At that moment, Skylar felt like she was just a tiny star within it. Her chest tightened as she countered, Why would I be avoiding you?” 

Joe fell silent, and they stared at each other for a long time

Finally, Joe let it go, turning off the light. Let’s sleep.” 

Skylar nodded lightly, humming in response

The next morning, Skylar and Joe had breakfast together before heading to work

On her way, Skylar received a call from Alexander. He mentioned wanting to take her to an auction

This particular auction featured numerous antiques brought back from abroad. They had all been professionally authenticated and were free of counterfeits

Alexander warned Skylar over the phone that some of these items, due to their overseas origin, could contain disturbing or harmful elements

The auction’s organizer, Orson Todd, was a friend of Alexander’s. He had shared that the seller of these antiquities was an elderly man. However, the elderly man didn’t leave any contact information, and Orson couldn’t 

recall his appearance

He pointed out that many older men have similar appearances, with their faces etched with wrinkles. The mask he was wearing made it even harder to distinguish him

Skylar keyed in the location into her navigation system and headed to the auction

Alexander was already waiting for her at the entrance. As soon as they met, he quietly asked, Have you heard from your Grandma Viola recently?Skylar shook her head. No, I haven’t heard from Grandma Viola in a while. Her phone has been off the entire time.” 

She was genuinely concerned about Viola’s wellbeing. It had been an extended period without any communication, and she had no clue about Viola’s whereabouts

Alexander sighed, his voice tinged with disappointment. She disappeared from Jipsburg so abruptly some 20 or 30 years ago, and we haven’t received any news since then. Now, she’s vanished once more. If your Grandma Viola were around, the person behind these malicious acts wouldn’t dare to be so bold.” 

Skylar silently prayed, hoping that Viola was safe and sound

Alexander led Skylar inside. They greeted many people along the way

For those who didn’t recognize Skylar, Alexander took the opportunity to introduce her to his friends

Although Skylar was still relatively new to Alexander’s company, everyone treated her with respect, deferring to Alexander’s position

Once seated, Skylar felt an unsettling gaze on her backone that was hard to ignore and seemed unfriendly
