My Flash Romance With the Richest Mogul

As Gloria waited for Skylar to arrive, she asked Edgar to prepare various delicious dishes.

Gloria glanced at the time. “Skylar will probably arrive in ten minutes.”

Edgar nodded in agreement. He said, “She most likely will. Although, the roads might be congested at this hour.”

“I can’t believe that they dared to disdain Skye. How could Edwin find a good woman for Joe with his horrible taste in women? He’d hurt Joe’s mom, and now he wants to destroy Joe’s marriage! I’m so angry!”

Edgar consoled immediately, “Calm down, Mrs. Martin Senior. They haven’t met Mrs. Martin before. Naturally, they don’t know what an exceptional young lady she is. This is normal. Besides, Mr. Martin is very determined. They wouldn’t be able to destroy Joe’s marriage even if they tried.”

Worried, Gloria maintained her frown. “I’ve been feeling anxious in the past few days. I’m afraid they won’t be able to pass the test. If their relationship sours, problems are sure to arise.”

“You’ve been dwelling on it until it has seeped into your dreams. You keep fretting over their relationship, which is why you’ve been feeling nervous. Last night, our helpers brought them dinner and heard them going at it in the bedroom. How could their relationship possibly sour? Don’t overthink it, Mrs. Martin Senior. Mrs. Martin would be worried if she found out,” Edgar advised. Content © NôvelDrama.Org.

With that, Edgar managed to calm Gloria down.

Just then, Skylar arrived. Her smile fell when she saw Gloria’s pale face. She asked, “Grandma, are you feeling ill?”

She had been swamped with work the past few days, and much had transpired. In the midst of it all, she hadn’t visited Gloria at Pearlhill Residence. Skylar only just realized her oversight.

“Nothing, I just missed you. Come over and let me take a good look at you,” Gloria waved Skylar over.

Skylar went over and sat beside Gloria. Skylar picked up on Gloria’s weird behavior.

Had Gloria asked her to visit because Edwin had returned?

“I had a few projects on hand, so I’ve been busy. I’d planned to have dinner with you a few days back, but the thought slipped my mind amidst all my tasks.”

Considering Joe’s recent behavior, she ought to have thought of Gloria long ago. She hadn’t been meticulous enough.

“If you have work to do, you must focus on that. I just thought of you today and wanted you to accompany me for dinner. I’ve gotten old and can’t stand the loneliness,” Gloria said. As she held Skylar’s hand, she felt herself calm.

In a sudden moment of reflection, Skylar remembered Viola, who always lit up with excitement during visits when Skylar recounted her school escapades.

Now that Viola stayed in Zindel Residence alone without the company of any relatives, she would definitely feel lonely.

“In that case, I’ll come frequently to keep you company. During the weekends, I might even be able to stay overnight.”

Gloria nodded and said, “That’s great. But if you’re busy, just sleep at Galaxy Villa. My place is quite far from the city center. It would be a waste of your time for you to drive back and forth.”

At this age, Gloria could tell who treated her genuinely and who truly had a kind soul.

Skylar was a good woman and wouldn’t let those narrow–minded people destroy their marriage. “Right, I’ve got to tell you something. If one of the Martins seeks you out and tries to pressure you into leaving Joe, don’t pay them any mind. With me here, no one will be able to come in between you two. Live a good life with Joe, alright?” Gloria said worriedly.

Skylar suddenly understood why Gloria was in a bad mood. Gloria was scared that the Martins would try to meet her.
