Chapter 989
When one wasn’t feeling hungry, having a plate of pasta with sauce felt light, nutritious, and comforting.
Simona’s eyes lit up. “Pasta with tomato and egg sauce? When I got up just now, I was just thinking how great it would be to have this dish here in Fachington.”
Skylar began to look forward to it too. A simple breakfast sounded perfect at that moment.
“Aiken knows me best! I love you, Aiken!
“Oh, by the way, Skylar, do you like the dish? If you don’t, we can have the maid prepare something else for you.”
Skylar replied, “I happen to be craving some pasta too.”
Hearing that, Simona smiled even brighter. “Wouldn’t it be great if the three of us are a family? Even our food preferences are the same. The maids wouldn’t have to worry about what to cook!”
She said it without much thought, but those listening took it seriously.
Aiken glanced at Skylar subtly.
Skylar smiled at Simona and said, “Haven’t you always regarded me as a sister? Well, I’ve already thought of you as my little sister.”
Simona’s eyes reddened with emotion. “Mm–hmm!”
After breakfast, Aiken made a few phone calls before asking Skylar, “Do you have any other plans today? If you’re free, would you join in the activities I’ve planned for Simona?”
Skylar thought about the rescheduled wedding photoshoot with Joe, but that plan had fallen through. When she left the hotel that morning, it was clear that Vera had gone to find him.
Her schedule for that day had nothing to do with him anymore.
“Skylar, please come with us. Aiken is so boring. Hanging out with him is really no fun,” Simona said, giving her brother a slightly dismissive look.
She was serious about that. Aiken was quite a dull person. And with him being so busy, they had little in
common.
What interested Simona didn’t appeal to him at all. She knew her brother found women troublesome. The fact that he even agreed to spend time with her was already something. So, she was not expecting any emotional support from him.
After all, there were always plenty and all types of women around him, but he treated none seriously. He was simply too cold and aloof. Or maybe, he just hadn’t met someone he truly liked.
Recently, though, it seemed like Aiken had more free time. He rarely stayed out overnight, and no women had come looking for him either. Simona hadn’t thought much of it before, but now she felt something seemed off about him.
Skylar agreed to Simona’s suggestion after thinking for a moment.
When she agreed, a glint seemed to flash through Aiken’s eyes.
While Skylar went to the bathroom before heading out, Simona quickly voiced her suspicion. “Aiken, did you fall in love recently? I feel like you’re different from before.”
Aiken glanced at Simona and said “C+

As siblings, she could easily sense his changes. So, Simona raised an eyebrow. “You know very well if I’m overthinking or not. So, who’s the lucky lady? Have I met her? Why don’t you bring her home to meet me after we return to the country? I’ll make sure to help you win her over!

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....
