Richest Mogul

“How much more would you give me?” Skylar asked. 

She was fine with coming early. They agreed that she would get off work at 3:00 pm, so she was okay to stay back for another hour. If she could finish this job earlier, she could get on with her next plan. 

“What about 100 thousand dollars?” 

If this had been a few days ago, Daniel wouldn’t have dared increase her pay. But after he saw her restoration skills, he knew that she was far better than any industry master. 

He’d thought about it. After these two paintings, he planned on recommending Skylar to the auction 

house. 

Skylar thought about it for a moment and agreed. 

Caleb wanted to say something, but he recalled Alexander’s.warning. So, he kept quiet. 

At Williams Residence, Jeffrey returned home from a business trip. When Sadie told him about her call with Skylar, he was so angry he threw his glass of water on the table. 

*Fine. She’s insisting that she’s never swiped the card I gave her? I’ll check her credit card records now!! wonder who gave her the guts to speak so rudely to her parents! 

“She didn’t go to the hospital today. She’s preventing Maisy from getting the blood she needs. She’s a disobedient liar. I don’t want to admit she’s my daughter at all!” 

Sadie’s head had been aching from last night until today. “I wonder where she’s living these days. She’s 

not at Janine’s house. 

“If she gets into trouble outside, all of Jipsburg will know she’s our daughter. What if she embarrasses us? My head aches just thinking about it.” 

“I’ll call her. I’ll get her to come back and apologize to you,” Kenny said coldly. 

He really disliked Skylar, that biological sister of his. After all, she’d grown up in the countryside. She was also not as good as Maisy at pleasing his parents. 

“It’s all my fault. Mom, Dad, Kenny, please don’t be angry.” Maisy lowered her head in grievance. 

Sadie’s heart ached for Maisy. “It’s not your fault; it’s Skylar’s!” 

Although Kenny had Skylar’s number, he’d never called her before. 

The call went through quickly. 

Before Skylar could speak, Kenny reprimanded her like a big brother. “Skylar, you better come home and apologize to our parents, and Malsy. We’re a family. We can forgive you for the mistakes you’ve made.” 

Skylar was driving. An accident must have happened up ahead, seeing that the cars were moving slowly. 

2/2 

There was honking everywhere. 

Kenny’s voice annoyed her even more. “You’re crazy.” Cursing, she hung up on him. 

She rarely cursed, but it was effective when dealing with self–righteous people like the Williamses. 

The Williamses had heard her because she was on speaker. 

Kenny’s face fell. “How did her adoptive parents raise her?” 

“Look at her! Just look at her! She’s so insolent! She makes me so angry!” Sadie pressed on her forehead as her head throbbed. 

Jeffrey’s and Kenny’s faces were long and grim. 

Maisy was the only person in the whole villa who was secretly delighted. Everyone else was upset. 

Suddenly, Jeffrey’s phone rang, and he picked it up. 

“Mr. Williams, I’ve checked. There are no records of your supplementary card being used.” 

“What did you say?” 

Jeffrey’s assistant thought it was a signal problem, so he repeated himself. 

Jeffrey couldn’t believe it. “Was the card number wrong? How could there be no records?” This content © Nôv/elDr(a)m/a.Org.

Sadie and Kenny looked toward Jeffrey when they heard that. 

But Maisy was secretly shocked. She had forgotten to stop Jeffrey from checking Skylar’s credit card!
