Richest Mogul 951


    As Skr nced at Minerva, an idea struck her. It urred to her that Minerva’s recent mood


    swings might be connected to her


    pregnancy. Perhaps the paperweight’s negative energy was affecting her state of mind.


    “Negative item?” Minerva echoed. She was familiar with the term, as it had recently be a topic


    of conversation. While some people


    were cautious about such things, others remained skeptical.


    Minerva knew people from the Doherty family and was aware of their experiences and recent


    events involving the Ruell family. Believing in these things, she had arranged to meet Skr after


    their encounter at the hospital.


    Skr exined the situation with the paperweight, and Minerva’s expression shifted as she


    listened. After a few minutes, Minerva said, “So this might exin my emotional changes. Honestly,


    I’ve been feeling quite unstabletely.”


    Since the moment Rowan called off their engagement, and Minerva learned she was pregnant the


    previous day, she had been battling her emotions.


    After all, Rowan had once been her fiancé, and their rtionship had been significant. His abrupt


    departure had deeply affected her. She admitted that Jenny’s presence made her uneasy, leading


    her to investigate Jenny.


    Minerva realized that her emotional instability might have heightened her sensitivity.


    Skr said, “If the paperweight is affecting you now, it could continue to do so in the future.”


    Minerva frowned. “If I don’t want it to cause any more harm, should I

    leave it to you to handle it?”


    Skr nodded with a smile. “Yes, I’ll make sure it’spletely destroyed.”


    “Then I’ll leave it to you,” Minerva sald without hesitation. She had no desire to keep such a harmful


    object or let it hurt anyone else.


    Skr carefully took the paperweight from Minerva’s hands.


    Minerva then said, “I keep forgetting to talk about payment. How much is it? I’ll transfer it now.”


    Skr had recently helped the Ruell family with a simr issue and had charged 20 million dors.


    Some might see that as opportunistic, but she believed there was a reason behind it. After all,


    compared to the value of a life, 20 million dors was nothing.


    Skr had a good impression of Minerva. The fact that she hadn’t fully sumbed to the


    paperweight’s negative influence showed her inner strength.


    She smiled and said, “It’s a coincidence that I met you, Ms. Reid. For friendship’s sake, let’s make it


    1,000 dors.”


    Minerva was surprised by the amount but soon smiled back at Skr. “I feel lucky to have met you


    too. Let’s skip the formalities -just call me by my first name from now on.”


    “Sounds good.”


    Minerva didn’t send just 1,000 dors. Wanting to show her sincerity in establishing a genuine


    friendship, she transferred 666,666 dors.


    She felt that amount was modest, considering the Ruell family’s issue had been billed at 20 million


    dors. She had already disrupted the


    market rate.


    Skr saw therge transfer and smiled. “Thank you.”


    “No, I should be the one thanking you.” Minerva replied with a smile of her own.


    Skr checked the time. “It’s gettingte. I should head out now.


    Please take care and get some rest.


    Just as Minerva was about to nod, she suddenly began dry–heaving uncontrobly. She ran to the


    nearby restroom, still heaving


    A few minutester, she emerged looking pale. She apologized to Skr, saying, “Sorry about that.


    I’m pregnant so I’m not feeling that great.”
