Richest Mogul

Chapter 659

In Jipsburg City, it was common knowledge that Aiken wasn’t particularly interested in women. He had plenty around him, many of whom were likely as attractive as Skylar. However, there was no way Skylar would lower herself to be just another woman in Aiken’s circle.

Edwin sneered, “It sounds a bit far–fetched, doesn’t it? Maybe Aiken is just using an excuse to brush me off. He might be falling for Skylar himself.”

Molly added, “It’s not surprising. If Joe values Skylar so highly, then she’s not the naïve country bumpkin we thought she was.”

Edwin’s expression darkened. “Regardless of how simple or complex she is, her status makes her unsuitable to be my daughter–in–law Since Aiken refused, he’s clearly not going to take on this business. Anyway, he won’t disclose our conversation.

“You’ll have to find someone else. If it weren’t for the risk of Joe getting suspicious, we’d just use our own people–it would be so much easier, and there wouldn’t be a need to bring Aiken into this. It’s unbelievable that handling someone like Skylar is turning out to be so difficult.”

From Edwin’s tone, Molly could tell that he was growing increasingly displeased with Skylar. She, too, realized the situation was more complex than anticipated. Skylar was proving to be unexpectedly troublesome.
