Chapter 851
Subtly, this reinforced the Ruell family’s belief that Joe and Vera would eventually marry.
Joe would occasionally glance at Skylar with the intensity of a man looking at the woman he loved, his eyes filled with focus and concern.
Patricia felt a warning bell go off in her head. They had assumed the arranged marriage between the Ruell and Martin families would go off without a hitch, but it seemed like an unexpected rival had appeared out
of nowhere.
After Skylar entered Grimwood Residence, Patricia began giving her a tour, floor by floor.
The Grimwood Residence was about the same size as Gloria’s Pearlhall Residence. It took time to walk through each level.
When they reached the third floor, where Denton stored his private collection, Skylar’s expression grew more serious.
The first thing she noticed was the painting Vera had fought Alexander for at the auction. “There’s something wrong with this painting. Take it down and give it to me later.”
“Alright.” Patricia first took a photo of the painting and then instructed a maid to take it down.
Next, she sent a photo of it to the family group chat.
Skylar looked around carefully again.
There was nothing else unusual.
“Other than that, there are no other negative items,” Skylar said.
Upon hearing her words, Patricia let out a sigh of relief. “That’s good. That’s good to know.”
“Ask Vera about the antique she won at the auction a while back. Where is it being kept?” Skylar continued.
Patricia nodded and immediately tagged Vera in the family group chat, relaying Skylar’s question word for word.
After sending the message, Patricia noticed the family group chat was already in chaos.
It turned out the painting was a gift from Vera to Denton, and everyone was now blaming her for it.
Skylar turned to Joe. “Going to the Ruell Residence might take a while, and it’s getting late. Do you want to head home first?”

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....
