Richest Mogul

Chapter 287

Skylar’s face turned beet red. She gripped the steering wheel tightly, cursing the

timing of Natalie’s message. They used to chat about anything without filters, and now Joe had seen their messages.

She didn’t need to look to know how visually striking those muscle–bound men were in the pictures Natalie sent.

However, compared to Joe, who has a superior physique, none of them stood a chance. Her best friend had dug a pit for her to fall into!

“She doesn’t know that I’m married. She still thinks I’m single and really wants me to find someone. Since she’s married, she doesn’t want me to be lonely,” Skylar explained, trying to sound natural.

However, internally, she was a mess. Any woman would be flustered if her husband saw a conversation about men with a friend. It was mortifying.

Joe’s lips curved slightly as he sensed Skylar’s forced calmness. “Do you want me to tell her to stop trying to find you a man?”

At this moment, Joe felt a surge of possessiveness. Some things needed to be made. clear once and for all.

Skylar’s composed facade was quickly crumbling, her smile barely holding. “That’s not necessary…”

She sensed a particular intensity in Joe’s gaze, a signal all too clear to any adult. The air grew increasingly charged, and there was an electric tension between them.

By the time they entered Galaxy Villa, the tension had reached a boiling point.

As soon as the door closed behind them and Skylar slipped into her slippers, Joe’s kisses descended upon her–urgent and fervent.

Skylar felt her breath being stolen away, and she was barely able to gasp for air. Joe pressed her against the wall, taking complete control.

Her rational thoughts were quickly overrun by the intensity of the moment, and the

entire villa was enveloped in the heat of passion.

Joe lifted Skylar and carried her upstairs to the bedroom, laying her gently on the

large bed. With hurried movements, he stripped off his clothes and joined her, his body pressing down on hers.

Skylar’s understanding of Joe deepened. On the surface, he appeared cold and

restrained, but in bed, he was anything but.

The contrast was stark and intoxicating, revealing a side of him that was wildly
