My Flash Romance With the Richest Mogul novel Chapter 1554

Natalie slipped the bracelet onto her wrist, her eyes shining with amazement.

"My goodness, with the way Muriel's designs have evolved, I doubt there's anyone in Jipsburg who can match her now. Just look at this craftsmanship!"

Skylar laughed and said, "If Muriel heard that, she'd be over the moon."

Natalie, still in high spirits, asked, "By the way, I'm planning a trip next month. Is there anything you'd like me to bring back for you?"

Skylar was surprised. "A trip? Are you going with your parents?"

Over the past few years, Natalie had built a successful career, but she'd always been hesitant to travel alone.

"No," Natalie replied, her gaze flickering with uncertainty. She looked a little embarrassed, unsure how to explain.

Skylar, sensing something unusual, raised an eyebrow.

Natalie hesitated a moment before finally admitting, "I'm going with Austin. We've gotten back together recently, and his family has finally given us their blessing, so there shouldn't be any more issues."

For the past two years, Natalie and Austin's relationship had been turbulent. Despite their deep love for each other, their constant breakups had taken a toll on their relationship.

But now, perhaps because they were older now, their outlook on love had softened. She felt it was time to settle down.

But these were just her thoughts. Austin had always been clear that he would never love anyone else but her.

Outside the private room of an upscale restaurant, Alban Rowe leaned close to the young woman beside him, his voice a low murmur. "Once you go in, make sure not to stare at Mr. Martin. I've been watching him for the past two years. Any woman who has tried to get close to him has failed. If you want to help your father pay off all my debts, you'll listen carefully. Let him take an interest in you first."

Elsie Shepard's face went pale, and she nervously bit her lip. "Do you really think Mr. Martin would be interested in me?"

Alban replied, "That depends on your skills. Even though he's married, they haven't had any children yet. People say their marriage is harmonious, but if they haven't had a child by now, there's clearly a problem."

He gave her a pointed look. "You look like his wife—just younger and more innocent. That alone will make him notice you."

Elsie lowered her head; a face appeared in her mind—Joe Maartin, the man who stood at the pinnacle of success, the kind of man she never dared dream of encountering.

Morally, the thought of becoming a third party made her stomach churn. Moreover, standing before a man like Joe would only magnify her feelings of inadequacy.
