My Flash Romance With the Richest Mogul



How could they share the same first and last names? Stephen wondered, but his instinct told him it wasn't just a coincidence.

"It's not important who Skylar is. The important thing is she's a total bitch! Do you understand? She's nothing but a bitch!" Rosa spat out, her voice seething with anger.

Stephen furrowed his brow. "Are you at home?"

"Yes, I'm at home. Hurry here. When you come, pick up a few bottles of alcohol on the way. I'm really upset today," Rosa said, feeling frustrated. With that, she abruptly ended the call.

As Stephen was about to leave on his bike, something suddenly occurred to him. He quickly pulled out his phone and searched for Joe. It didn't take long before he found a statement from Martin Group.

Joe had announced that he was married. Though he hadn't mentioned his wife's name, reports identified Skylar based on a side profile and some of her details.

He had just seen Skylar, so the side profile matched perfectly. Then came the rest of her identity details.

Of course, no one seemed interested in digging further into Skylar's private life.

Joe likely had given orders to keep Skylar's information private, not wanting anyone to bother her.

As he recalled his brief conversation with Skylar earlier, Stephen felt an unsettling chill run down his spine.

The more he thought about Rosa's occasional mentions of Joe and a certain manipulative woman who was always around him, the more everything made sense.

He had privately investigated Rosa's relationship with Joe, and many online reports helped him piece things together.

At the time, he hadn't thought much of it. After all, Joe and Rosa came from completely different backgrounds, and with Joe returning from Murida, it seemed impossible for them to be together still. That was why he had dared to deceive Rosa.

But he never expected that Skylar

would be the very same

manipulative woman Rosa had been talking about. When Skylar

mentioned

ne

that she had seen it with

her own eyes, Stephen realized she had likely witnessed him and Rosa together.

Skylar might have even been keeping tabs on Rosa's every move in Jispburg. Suddenly, he felt a cold sweat on his back.

With Skylar's connection to Simona, he wondered if she might tell Simona about him and Rosa.novelbin

A sinking feeling settled in his gut.

But soon, Stephen thought of the

item he was wearing. With that item, Simona would never listen to anyone else. In her heart, she had already decided that someone had framed him, and she would stand by him no matter what.

S

So, there was no need to worry about Skylar talking to Simona. Right now, he needed to meet with Rosa.

He also wanted to know how much money Rosa had left. He was running low himself and needed to win back the money he had lost at the casino.

In the spacious apartment, Rosa stood by the floor-to-ceiling windows.

The city's bustling skyline spread out before her. It felt like she was in a mirage, as if everything she had experienced in recent days was nothing but a dream.

A few months ago, she hadn't felt much about Jipsburg, but now, she suddenly wanted to stay here forever.

When she heard the door open behind her, she knew Stephen had arrived. She felt a wave of frustration and helplessness.

She thought about the news she had seen today and the humiliation of being pushed away by Joe in front of so many people just a few days ago in an instant, her eyes filled with tears.

"I bought some alcohol, and I also brought your favorite peppered beef jerky from that place you like. I got a few desserts too." Stephen's warm and gentle voice came from behind her.
