My Flash Romance With the Richest Mogul

Edgar understood Gloria’s intentions. He had to obey her instructions, so he smiled immediately and said, “I’ll pay attention, Mrs. Martin Senior

What?

Joe looked deeply at Skylar and said, “In that case, Ms. Su-” Gloria glanced at him.

“Thank you, Skye.” Joe stopped addressing her formally.

Skylar couldn’t help but smile. Many people called her “Skye“, but she felt awkward when Joe did it.

At Williams Residence, Sadie received a call from the hospital. She was notified that Maisy was to g Exclusive © content by N(ô)ve/l/Drama.Org.

the hospital the next day and that the blood they had for her was no longer sufficient.

go

to

“Mom, do you think Skylar has given up on saving me? She hates me, so she must want me dead. I don’t know what I’ve done wrong. I’m sick and hated by my sister, and my parents are my adoptive parents!” Maisy hugged Sadie as she cried.

Sadie felt heartbroken when she saw the daughter she had raised cry.

“I’ll call her. I’ve ignored her for three days; she must have realized she was wrong by now. I’ll forget her

past mistakes and ask her to go to the hospital to donate her blood.”

Maisy looked carefully at Sadie. “Will Skylar really go? Will she raise any conditions again? I don’t want to make things difficult for you and Dad.”

“If she makes any excessive demands, she can forget about coming back! The day before, she made her adoptive mother call me.

“Maybe she regretted it immediately after leaving the hospital, but she was too embarrassed to say anything. She must be hoping I’ll say something first,” Sadie said as her brows furrowed.

The more she thought about it, the more she wanted to deny that Skylar was her biological child!

Skylar behaved so poorly. Sadie felt embarrassed by her.

Maisy smiled. The more Sadie hated Skylar, the more Maisy felt superior to the latter.

Sadie took her phone out to make a call.

At the time, Skylar was giving Joe a head massage at Pearlhall Residence under the “supervision” of Edgar.

It was the first time she and Joe had been so close.

Joe had thought Skylar was fooling Gloria and that she knew exactly what Gloria liked.

But when her soft hands pressed accurately on each acupuncture point around his head, it was like magic. He’d always had problems falling asleep, but he was feeling sleepy now.

Since Gloria had urged him to do so, Edgar was genuinely interested in learning. He understood that with

every change in technique, Skylar was targeting a new acupuncture point.

Even though Skylar had explained each point to him, he couldn’t remember it!

Forget it. Gloria wasn’t serious about him learning from Skylar anyway.

Someone’s phone rang at an inappropriate time.

Edgar saw that it was Skylar’s phone. “Someone’s calling you, Mrs. Martin.”

Skylar finished up her massage session and walked over to pick up the call.

“Hello?”

“So now you know how to pick up a call, huh? Is it because you know you’ve made a mistake?‘I can forget what happened a few days ago. I can teach you how to behave properly if you don’t know how to. Come back right now so we can go to the hospital tomorrow,” Sadie said condescendingly.

Skylar glanced at Joe, who was sleeping lightly on the couch. Then, she walked out with her phone.

Once she walked out, Joe opened his eyes and looked at her icily.

He could vaguely hear the scolding Skylar was receiving from her phone.

Were the Williamses treating Skylar that badly?

Sadie saw that her call was still ongoing, but Skylar was not responding. She was already in a bad mood,

but now it was worse.

“When did you become mute? Say something!”

“Are you asking me to go back and resume being Maisy’s blood bank?” Skylar asked.

Skylar’s lukewarm voice made Sadie frown. Something felt off. “Blood bank? Maisy’s your younger sister. You’re just donating some blood; why do you have to make it sound that bad? Come back now. I’ll give you a new room that is as big as Maisy’s.”

Skylar laughed.

Sadie got the false impression that Skylar was laughing happily because she’d achieved her goal.

She frowned and said impatiently, “Go with your dad to the company after the hospital visit tomorrow He’s set up a position for you as a clerk.”

“Are you done, Mrs. Williams?” Skylar stopped laughing sarcastically..

Sadie’s true colors were too ugly.

“What did you call me? I’m your mom! How dare you address me as Mrs. Williams?” Sadie was furious.

“Does a mother like you exist? Strangers would think I’m your enemy.” Skylar sneered.

In her

onevious life, she had been put in the smallest room in the whole villa. She had barely seen Sadie

once in two weeks. Whenever Sadie had seen her, she had despised her for being a cripple.

What a wonderful mother! Maisy could have Sadie all for herself.

“What are you saying?! Have you been hearing things from others? Is that why you’re speaking to me so rudely?

“The money you’re spending is ours. Your dad has canceled your credit card. If you don’t want to be poor. and homeless, come back and admit your mistake now!” Sadie thought she’d misheard Skylar.

Skylar had moved her phone away from her ear before Sadie could reply. When Sadie finished yelling. Skylar picked up her phone again.

“Neither you nor Mr. Williams are that old. I don’t think you have Alzheimer’s yet. Ever since you took me in, I’ve never spent a penny of yours. 1

“Ask Mr. Williams to check his credit card records. You’re always in the hospital with Maisy anyway. Why don’t you get a CT scan to check your brain?”

With that, Skylar hung up.

She knew there was a vineyard at Pearlhall Residence, so she headed there.

After the call ended, Sadie’s face was full of disbelief.

Skylar hadn’t spent a single penny?

That was impossible!

People from the countryside were liars. Skylar hadn’t even worked after she had graduated. It was impossible that she hadn’t spent their money.

“What did Skylar say? You seem angry.” Maisy was very observant. She scoffed, Skylar was no match for her!

If she became Joe’s girlfriend, Skylar would have to look up to her.

Sadie threw her phone angrily at the couch. “She’s not coming back. How dare she talk back to me? She even said she didn’t spend a penny of ours. How did Janine raise her? How could she lie so ungratefully?”

Maisy’s eyes flickered.

She knew that Skylar wasn’t lying.

Christopher had said that Skylar spent her high school vacations working. She had also worked in her spare time when she had been in college. It wouldn’t have been hard for her to save up some money.

But…

“Skylar has dad’s credit card. How could she naively think that her lies wouldn’t be exposed? Mom, don’t let her get to you.

Sadie got even angrier after listening to Maisy. “She’s outrageous!”

After hanging up on Sadie, Skylar went to Pearlhall Residence’s vineyard to harvest grapes with the workers. After that, she went to pick strawberries.

She was squatting there, picking strawberries, when Joe showed up.
