Richest Mogul

She looked up at Joe.

His white shirt was tucked into his high–end trousers. He looked tall and towering with his long legs. He exuded a noble air inside out, and he looked cool and handsome under the evening sky.

Skylar blinked. She had to admit that Joe had a very handsome face. He was even more good–looking

than her favorite movie star.

Everyone appreciated beautiful things. She was no different.

Joe looked at Skylar as he said, “Grandma is awake. Let’s go have dinner.”

He couldn’t help but grimace when he noticed that she was looking at him like other women did. Had

Skylar and Gloria set him up with that head massage?

Was Skylar trying to make him see her strengths?

He had known that she was a scheming woman when Gloria had made him marry her.

Skylar stood up. “Alright. I’ve picked some grapes and strawberries too.”

response.

Seeing that Gloria was awake, Skylar walked over with the grapes and strawberries.

“You picked them yourself?” Gloria smiled as she asked.

Edgar had informed her that Joe, who’d always had sleeping problems, had fallen asleep after Skylar’s

massage.

Joe would know Skylar’s strengths soon.
