My Flash Romance With the Richest Mogul

“What’s there to be afraid of? Viola is just soft–hearted. She gave so much of herself for our sake. I just hope that she can truly be happy

“She did say that she was really happy that Skye was there to keep her company throughout those years. in the countryside,” Gloria replied.

Skylar’s eyes welled up with tears when she heard Gloria and George mention Viola. She really missed her.

To her, she was closer to Viola than she had been to her grandmother in the countryside.

Viola had rarely talked about the past. Skylar had never asked about it either. Oftentimes, Viola would space out for an entire day while looking at the mountains in the distance.

Back then, Skylar used to think that Viola was very lonely. She had wanted to keep Viola company so that she knew that she had family.

“Has Viola ever mentioned me, Skye?” George’s question came out of the blue. There was a clear sense of anticipation in his teary eyes.

Skylar shook her head. She answered honestly, “Grandma Viola rarely talked about her past. She said that some people will keep some of their stories hidden in their hearts. All is fine as long as they never forget.”

George was taken aback. Then, he nodded absentmindedly. “That’s right. Everything will be fine as long as they never forget.”

Gloria’s eyes

had also turned a little red. “She’s indeed able to see through things so clearly.”

Following that, Gloria and George never brought up Viola’s name again,

George left after a short chat. When he left, he invited Skylar to go to his place when she had the time so that she could keep him company.

Gloria shot George a look, signaling to him not to steal Skylar away from her. Skylar couldn’t laugh when she saw how both of them were bickering like little children.

‘t help but

When Joe entered the ward, he saw both Skylar and Gloria grinning from ear to ear.

There was a cozy atmosphere in the room.

Joe paused when he caught sight of the smile on Skylar’s face Then, he looked toward Gloria and said, Hi, Grandma.”

Gloria now favored Skylar and looked down upon him.

To her, Skylar was a delicate person. That made her feel closer to Skylar and made her want to protect Skylar with all her heart.

Joe, on the contrary, had become more complicated as he’d gotten older. He rarely smiled and always. had a frigid expression on his face. Gloria harrumphed.

)

Joe had clearly felt her dislike for him. However, he was already used to it and showed no change in his

expression.

“Skye has been chatting with me and George for a long while. I’m sure she’s thirsty. Get some water and peel an apple for her,” Gloria said to Joe.

Joe raised a brow. She wanted him to peel an apple for Skylar?

“I’ve had some water, Grandma. I’m not thirsty, and I can’t stomach an apple right now. I’ll peel it myself when I feel like eating it.” Skylar refused promptly.

She didn’t have the guts to have Joe peel an apple for her. They weren’t that close either.

Joe was about to reach out for an apple when he heard Skylar’s words. He lowered his hand again.

Coincidentally, their eyes met. Just as they were about to look away, they had the sudden feeling that Gloria was looking at them fiercely, as if she had sensed something.

So, they ended up staring at one another awkwardly.

They had to keep their relationship hidden in front of other people. But, in front of Gloria, they had to be an actual married couple. They had to make sure that they kept the truth under wraps.

There was something about the way they looked at each other. Gloria’s heart raced.

This strange feeling reminded her of the couples in dating variety shows. A glance like this was usually how the couples started to fall for one another.
