Richest Mogul 1018


    1/2


    The next morning, Skr woke up to find her throat a bit hoarse, likely a sign of inmmation.


    Looking at her reflection in the mirror, she noticed her eyes were puffy and red.


    After washing her face, she went downstairs and made herself a simple breakfast of scrambled


    eggs and coffee. Joe hadn’t returned since their argument about divorce, clearly displeased by her


    words.


    But this matter couldn’t be postponed. A resolution was necessary. The vivid nightmare from the


    previous night haunted her thoughts. She couldn’t risk harming those she loved.


    However, while she was trapped in the nightmare, it felt as though someone was whispering in her


    ear, holding her tightly andforting her.


    It must have been a dream.


    When she opened her eyes that morning, it felt like Joe had been beside her. However, seeing the


    empty space next to her confirmed it was merely an illusion.


    After getting ready, she headed to Pearlhall Residence.


    Initially, Gloria refused to go to the hospital, but Skr insisted. Eventually, she agreed to go for a


    check-


    1. up.


    After some examinations at the hospital, the doctor rmended that Gloria stay for observation.


    Gloria didn’t want to stay, so the doctor didn’t press, and the test results would be ready the next


    day.


    Skr and Edgar escorted Gloria back to Pearlhall Residence.


    In the afternoon, she went shopping at the mall and the supermarket to pick up some essentials for


    Janine.


    Janine had been quite busytely. The store had started live broadcasts on several tforms and


    hired a few streamers. Everything was being managed smoothly under Janine’s careful


    supervision.


    Seeing that Skr looked unwell, Janine said with concern, “Have you been working too hard


    lately? If it’s too much, you should consider quitting.


    “Our store’s ie has stabilized after starting the live streams. You won’t have to worry about


    money, so there’s no need to push yourself so hard.”


    “I just got back from abroad, and I’m adjusting to the time difference. Work isn’t exhausting. I


    haven’t been sleeping well these past couple of days, but there’s nothing to worry about, Mom,”


    Skr said, not wanting to cause Janine any concern.


    Seeing her family members each pursuing their lives so fully made her truly happy.


    She realized that she had fallen in love with Joe. That was why, after reading Vi’s letter, she had


    been struggling within herself since yesterday. She didn’t want to end her marriage with Joe.


    Janine smiled and nodded. “That’s good to hear. I was just worrying for nothing. You’ve been away


    in Fachington for so long, and I’ve missed you. Tonight, you just sit here and watch TV while I cook


    some dishes you love.


    “By the way, where’s Joe? Is he off work? Give him a call and invite him over. What does he like to


    eat? I’ll make that too.”


    Skr’s gaze flickered. “He’s been really busy these days, sometimes workingte until midnight.


    He doesn’t have time toe over. Let’s just eat together for now. When he has some free time, I’ll


    bring him


    over.”


    “That makes sense. He must have a lot of work to catch up on after being away for so long. I’ll go


    make dinner, so just rx and watch TV,” Janine said, her mind at ease just being with her


    daughter.


    Skr admired Janine, who still looked vibrant and youthful. If Janine didn’t reveal her true age to


    others, one would think she was just in her early 40s. Her fair skin and natural grace gave her a


    gentle elegance.

    If it weren’t for the responsibilities toward her children, perhaps Janine would have found someone


    to share her life with by now.


    After all, life was only halfway through. Skr turned on the TV, her mind wandering as she


    watched.
