Jenny said, “Rowan, I was wrong before.”
Jenny forced back the tears in her eyes.
Rowan was momentarily taken aback. He looked at Jenny thoughtfully and asked, “What exactly do you. want to tell me?”
Jenny hadn’t expected such a cold response from Rowan, especially since his attitude was colder than ever before. The contrast between his past and present demeanor was stark.
She felt a pang of sadness. “Rowan, must we be this way? Why are you so cold to me? We’ve known each other for so long, and you never used to be like this.
“You must have heard about my accident by now. Why haven’t you visited me in the hospital?”
Rowan frowned and said, “Have you forgotten what I said before? And isn’t there someone else around you?”
He used to feel deeply sympathetic when Jenny cried. But now, for some reason, he found himself growing impatient.
Jenny wasn’t naïve and could sense Rowan’s impatience.
There was no one around her. She wondered if someone was spreading rumors in front of Rowan. It must
be his fiancée, Minerva.
“Who told you that? Why would you think that? You know I have feelings for Joe. How could I be with someone else?
“But now I’ve realized that Joe and I can never be together. He’s already married, and I should let him go, Jenny said, her tears flowing again.
Her distress was palpable and genuinely heartbreaking.
Rowan frowned. “After I left your place that day, I saw someone on your balcony. He was right there.”
Jenny’s expression changed dramatically. Rowan saw someone.
Jenny understood Rowan well. She knew he had always had feelings for her. As long as she lowered her guard, there was still a chance for them.

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....
