My Flash Romance With the Richest Mogul novel Chapter 385

Chapter 385 

“Sony, I can’t make it tonight. I have to meet with some clients. I’ll be home late, so don’t wait up, just go to sleep” 

Natalie froze for a moment, feeling a bit disappointed. 

“Okay.” 

After ending the call, she stared at her phone, somewhat lost in thought. 

Jeremy sounded exactly like how he used to after they were intimate. As soon as this thought crossed her mind, she couldn’t help but laugh. 

Why was she letting her imagination run wild again? 

She decided to look at Austin’s schedule. Even though she was just a minor assistant, she could prepare things in advance. Since she had taken on this job, she wanted to love it and do her best. 

Kenny and his siblings returned home dejectedly. No one went to the hospital today. Instead, they sent at housekeeper, 

Jeffery finally got home to see his children sitting on the sofa and frowned. 

“Why didn’t you go to the hospital? And where’s Skylar? Didn’t you get a TV program involved to force her to return? Where is she?” 

There were tons of issues with the company, and now, there was another mess at home. 

“Dad, today’s plan failed. Skylar isn’t coming back,” Peter said. 

Samuel couldn’t hold back his emotions, “She called the police and even hired a lawyer. Not only is she not coming back, but she’s also making us apologize!” 

“She seems like a different person now,” Maisy said with a hint of jealousy. 

Jeffery was furious. 

“How dare she! You’re all scared just because she hired a lawyer?” 

The company was a mess, and now, so was his home. Anger boiled inside of him. 

“Her lawyer is Jacky, the legal counsel for the Martin Group. Not only do we have to apologize, but the TV program team also has to apologize. Dad, we were right. Skylar has someone supporting her, and it might be Jacky,” Peter speculated, narrowing his eyes. 

From the moment they left the police station until now, he had been pondering this. It almost seemed inevitable now. 

Maisy’s eyes flickered. She wanted to say something but swallowed her words. 

Maybe Peter was right. 

Jeffery was surprised, “Jacky?” 

“Yes.” 

*Arrange for me to meet him. I’ll test the waters. I didn’t know Skylar is so capable. I thought she was aiming for Mr. Martin’s assistant, Mr. Zieglar, but turns out she wanted Jacky,” Jeffery said, his eyes gleaming as he made plans. 

Skylar prepared a hearty dinner, all simple home–cooked dishes. She also made a fruit salad with the fruit and yogurt from the fridge. 

Before coming home, she had asked Joe what he wanted to eat and made two dishes according to his preferences. 

Joe brought over a bottle of red wine. They drank wine while eating. 

Skylar drank two or three glasses. Her alcohol tolerance wasn’t great, and after a few drinks, she was slightly tipsy. 

After dinner, Joe washed the dishes. Skylar had already gone upstairs to bathe when he came out of the kitchen. 

Joe stood before the bathroom door, listening to running water. He felt hot and heavy. After swallowing hard, he pushed the door open and walked in. 

“Weren’t you going to thank me? Do it here then.”
