Richest Mogul

Chapter 3

“I know Grandma Gloria asked you to help the Williamses, but…”

Joe raised his brows, wondering if Skylar thought the Williamses deserved a higher status.

Though Jeffrey simply wasn’t fit for it, Joe would still agree to her terms if that was her condition for the

marriage arrangement.

“I hope you’ll stop helping them.” Skylar dropped her gaze, fearing the malice in her eyes would throw him

off.

“Oh?” Joe was slightly taken aback. Nevertheless, he didn’t question any further.

Seeing that Skylar had signed the documents, he glanced at his watch. “Let’s go.”

“Alright.”

The courthouse wasn’t busy, so they managed to obtain their marriage certificate quickly. Everything still felt unreal to Skylar as she strode out of the courthouse and stared at the certificate.

Joe’s voice rang from beside her. “Let’s exchange our numbers. I’ll send you my address; you should

move in with me in two days.”

Before Skylar could refuse, he left promptly. She had planned to move in with Gloria. Not once had she ever considered living with Joe.

However, she wasn’t against this particular arrangement. A harmonious facade of their loving marriage life would put Gloria at ease, after all.

Skylar checked the time. It was 3:30 pm, and she could still head back to Williams Residence to retrieve her belongings. She wouldn’t even step into their house again if it weren’t for the valuable items Viola had

given her.

Her phone rang on her way to Williams Residence. Without checking the caller ID, she answered the call
