Richest Mogul

However, Elsie took several steps back.

"Help me? How could you possibly help me? If you really want to help me, then let Mr. Martin support me financially! Stop monopolizing him! Someone as amazing as him shouldn't be revolving around you all the time. If you let Mr. Martin take care of me, all my problems will be solved!"

She shouted these words at Skylar, almost hysterically.

This was what she truly wanted!

If everything she had experienced was nothing but a false dream, then what she truly desired was for Joe to rescue her like a knight in shining armor.noveldrama

She was even willing to share Joe with another woman, willing to be a secret lover living in the shadows.

Joe's face turned grim. "Your family has no reason to stay in Jipsburg anymore."

Elsie felt as if she was struck by lightning.

She suddenly calmed down, recalling some of the rumors she had heard about Joe in the past. It was said that those who offended him almost never managed to stay in Jipsburg. Those who tried to remain in the city ended up losing everything, falling to the bottom of society with no way to survive.

Her family was already on the verge of collapse. Alban was holding them hostage, but at least they still had some breathing room and maintained a respectable appearance outside. But if Joe stepped in, her family would have nothing left!

"I was wrong! I'm sorry. I shouldn't have been pestering you! I truly made a mistake!" Elsie's knees went weak, and she almost collapsed to the ground.

Just then, two security guards arrived.

Seeing them, Elsie turned pale as a sheet. But she was still unwilling to give up as she stared at Joe.

However, Joe was never one to be soft-hearted. No matter how pitifully she cried, he wouldn't feel sorry for her.

"Skylar, I was wrong! I was out of my mind. What I said earlier was just out of anger-it wasn't what I truly meant! Please believe me! I really know I was wrong!" Elsie turned to Skylar for help.

But Skylar had already turned and gone back into the villa. Joe followed Skylar inside as well.

Elsie froze in place, completely stunned.

"How did you get in here? Don't you know this is private property? Leave now! Or we'll take you to the police station!"

"What are you standing there for? You look so decent, yet you're doing shady things like this!"

Hearing the security guards scolding her, Elsie felt dazed and lost. It felt like she had caused a major disaster for herself.

Out of the corner of her eye, she noticed the crumpled talisman paper on the ground.

A negative item... Was it really cursed?

...

"She's currently under the influence of a negative item. It has affected her judgment. There's no need to dirty your hands over this.

"Paul mentioned that the troubles

is facing are impossible to

resolve. Alban never lets go once he

someone in his grip.

"If her family refuses to start over and continues trying to take shortcuts, they won't last long," Skylar said, trying to calm Joe.

She knew that Elsie's behavior had enraged him, and the fact that she had placed a talisman on him made him genuinely want to destroy her family.

These things were easy for Joe. But it wasn't worth dirtying his hands over it.

Joe's anger eased under Skylar's persuasion. "I'll listen to you."
