My Flash Romance With the Richest Mogul

However, when Skylar noticed Joe looking at her, she asked him out of politeness.

Joe’s eyes flickered slightly, and he closed the book in his hand. “I have a video conference in an hour. Maybe next time,” he replied with an expected answer.

Skylar nodded with a smile. “Okay, I’m leaving then.”

Skylar stopped again, feeling a bit puzzled.

Why did Joe seem reluctant to let her go? It was unusual.

“Anything else?” she asked.

Joe set the book down and walked over, his long legs covering the distance quickly. The height difference caused him to lower his head to look at her.

At the thought of her late husband, Janine’s eyes reddened. She looked forward to meeting him again in the afterlife and proudly telling him how well she had raised their children.

They had all grown up well, and Harvey, the youngest, was excelling in his studies and would surely get into the university of his choice.

Seeing her children doing well made her feel content.

Soon, the table was filled with dishes. Skylar arrived earlier than Steven and Charles.

Harvey saw her carrying a bunch of things and was surprised. “Skye, why did you buy so many things?”
