Chapter 840
Natalie hooked an arm around Skylar’s and walked out with her. She hadn’t noticed Jeremy’s change in expression. His eyes were stuck to her as she left.
Jeremy didn’t even realize when Helena sidled up to him.
Not only did that woman know Jeremy, but she also knew Joe and Skylar. That was her name, wasn’t it?
In addition, Jeremy looked at her in a weird way. It was as though he couldn’t see anyone else when he was staring at her. Her instinct flagged Natalie out as a threat. She said, “Mr. Hughes, let’s continue shopping.”
Jeremy shook himself out of his daydream. He looked down to hide his red–rimmed eyes. Then, he said,” That’s enough shopping for today. Let’s go.”
He turned to Joe and added, “I’ll take my leave now.”
Joe nodded. He glanced at Helena thoughtfully. Then, he walked out.
Natalie and Skylar walked into a shop selling male clothes.
“I don’t have much savings. I can’t gift Mr. Powell luxury suits. However, I can manage a tie. You’ve got great taste. Help me pick one.”
Austin’s birthday was in a few days. Everyone in the company secretly prepared gifts for him.
Natalie had come to the mall to pick a gift out. Initially, she planned to take pictures and send them to Skylar to select one. She was surprised to find out Skylar was in the mall. This was even better.
Skylar was relieved to realize Natalie truly didn’t care that Jeremy had a new girlfriend. She focused on selecting ties with Natalie and asked, “How about this one?”
“This one looks good. However, it doesn’t look like something Mr. Powell would wear. On the other hand, it looks like Mr. Martin’s style. Why don’t you buy one for him? You’re already here, after all,” suggested, Natalie.
Skylar thought of how Joe had just paid for her clothes. A tie would be an adequate token of exchange. “I would like this one.” Skylar pointed it out to the promoter standing there. She continued, “Help me bag it up.”
Then, she continued helping Natalie pick a gift.
It didn’t look like Natalie had a favorite one. She chatted with Skylar. “Jeremy has got a new crush, and I’m really happy for him. I’ve made sense of things. I’ve got to look to the future rather than get lost in the past.
happens, you’ll always be my best friend! Mr. Powell is a great boss, and Hank is a great manager

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....
