My Flash Romance With the Richest Mogul

Skylar had no way of posting the videos. In a situation like this, she wouldn’t have a way to reveal the

truth to others.

Noticing the silence on Steven’s end, she said, “I’ll get a lawyer.”

“I don’t think the lawyers in Jipsburg will take your case, Skye. The legal team that the Williamses hired is renowned in Jipsburg. Even their PR team is top–notch,” Steven said with a heavy heart, his expression gloomy. Exclusive © content by N(ô)ve/l/Drama.Org.

With her phone in hand, Skylar remained silent. If there was anyone by her side who could see how tightly she was clenching it, they’d see how much hate she had bubbling inside of her.

“What if you were to go to your biological parents and show them the videos? They might be able to help you and not make this an even bigger issue,” Steven suggested.

That was also the solution that his friends had come up with.

He was aware that Skylar didn’t want to see Jeffrey and Sadie at all right now. Moreover, the couple didn’t hesitate to oppress her because of Maisy.

How would they treat her if she went to see them?

That would really cause Skylar a lot of grievance. As her older brother, Steven felt suffocated for not being able to help her out.

Skylar’s eyes reddened. She answered him softly. “I’ll think about it. Don’t worry about this for now, Steven. I know that you’ve been having some things to deal with recently. My issue isn’t a major one.

“I’ll deal with it properly. I know that you’re really worried about me, but I’m a grown–up now. I’m no longer that child who cries whenever she finds herself in trouble. I’ll be strong and face these challenges head-

on.”

She should’ve been able to settle these things well. But she didn’t expect that she would still end up making her family members worry.

After he hung up, Steven’s eyes welled up with tears.

Skylar was about to pocket her phone when it rang with a call from Charles.

She gave him a summary of the situation. Charles then said that he would go to her. She refused. She told him that she could handle it and asked him to focus on his work.

Once the call with Charles ended, she looked at the time–it was already half past six.

She changed before going downstairs. She found a tub of yogurt in the refrigerator. She added some oatmeal to it and ate it.

Right at this moment, Sadie called.

Skylar stared at Sadie’s name. On top of that, she thought of what Steven said to her earlier and felt a

sharp pain in her heart. Should she give them another chance?

“You’ve finally answered! Have you realized your mistake? You’re a daughter of the family, after all. We’ll forgive you for this time as long as you apologize. These things on the internet will be forgotten with time.

“Your father and I will send you overseas temporarily. When you’re overseas, you should be good and not cause trouble. Do you hear me?”

When Sadie’s call had finally been answered, she couldn’t quite describe how she felt.

She felt a sense of relief. Even so, she still couldn’t help blurting out her dissatisfaction.

Skylar answered her in a cold voice, “The photo is real. I have videos of them at the mall.”

Sadie was taken aback. Then, she questioned her in disbelief. “What did you say? It’s real? That’s impossible. How could it be? Maisy has always been virtuous, unlike you, who lived together with

Christopher so mindlessly.”

Skylar’s heart turned cold. She scoffed. “Did Maisy say those things to you too? Hang up and check your

WhatsApp messages.”

Maisy could really come up with all sorts of things just to speak ill of her. She was such a classic example of someone who loved to drag others down with her.

A few minutes after the call ended, Sadie called again.

“Have you watched the videos?” Skylar asked.

Sadie responded, “Maisy needs to have a happy marriage in the future. This will ruin her chances. Listen to me, Skye. Let’s put an end to this. I won’t request you to apologize.

“But, you also can’t bring this up with anyone else. Let’s just say that Maisy owes you for this. I’ll talk to your Dad and make sure that you’re compensated. I reckon that they looked just a little closer than usual. They’re not actually involved with one another:”

I “So, you’re saying that even though they kissed, they’re not involved with one another? I really question your values, Mrs. Williams. I was right. I shouldn’t have any expectations toward any of you.”
