Richest Mogul 1151
Chapter 1151
After ending the call with Skylar, Aiken put down his phone. He leaned back in his chair, frowning slightly.
A wave of fatigue washed over him.
Simone enjoyed Skylar’s company, and he did too. During those brief two hours, he deeply yearned for family and a sense of inner peace.
Unfortunately, some feelings couldn’t be expressed openly. He felt unworthy of Skylar.
When Skylar stepped into her house, she received a call from Charles.
“I just wrapped up my scenes for the day and took the medicine you sent. You’re the best, Skye.
Skylar smiled and said, “You’re working so hard. You need to take care of yourself.”
“Don’t worry about me. My health is great. While I’m young, I need to give it my all. Just wait for me to bring home that Best Actor trophy.” Charles spoke enthusiastically and confidently about his acting.
He wasn’t being arrogant. He was just incredibly dedicated and sincere. He never took acting lightly.
Skylar understood him well and immediately cheered him on. “Great! I’ll be waiting for that. You can do it. I can’t wait to show off your picture on Instagram to everyone, boasting that
have a brother who’s a Best Actor.”
“I won’t let you down. Hahaha,” Charles replied, filled with confidence.
Even though he didn’t have formal training, he was willing to put in the work, even sacrificing dating to focus on improving his acting skills.
He believed that if others could achieve their dreams, so could he.
“Get some rest. Don’t forget to take your medicine over the next few days. With flu going around, wear a mask when you go out.” Before hanging up, Skylar added her final reminders.
Charles laughed and said, “Alright, don’t worry. Take care of yourself too. If Joe bullies you, you need to let me know right away. I’ll go after him. Don’t think my sister is easy to push around.”
Skylar couldn’t help but laugh. “You don’t have to worry. He hasn’t bullied me.”
“Hahaha, alright.” They chatted and joked before ending the call.
After taking a shower, Joe sent her a video call. The camera clearly showed him in a Wiscadian
restaurant.
“Are
you
showered and read
to go to bed?”
She nodded and yawned. “Yeah, I didn’t sleep well last night, so I’m feeling sleepy now.” This is from NôvelDrama.Org.
“Go ahead and sleep. I ran into a small issue here, but it should be resolved by tomorrow. I’ll be back the day after.” Joe updated her on his schedule.
As a husband, it was important for him to keep his wife informed about what he was doing.
Skylar smiled and said, “Okay, I’ll wait for your return. Be safe while you’re abroad.”
“Sleep well, goodnight.”
“Goodnight.”
After the video call ended, Skylar went straight to bed. However, Joe remained on his WhatsApp, still focused on the screen after the video call ended.
Paul, sitting across from him, noticed and chuckled softly. “Mr. Martin, you’re getting fond of Mrs. Martin.”
It was obvious that he cared for Skylar. Just look at how he was still staring at the chat page even after the video call had ended.
Skylar’s profile picture wasn’t even a photo of herself. It was just a simple landscape image.
It was plain and straightforward. Paul questioned what made it so appealing that Joe continued to stare at it.
He must be missing Skylar after just being away for a day or two.
Joe looked
- up. Paul immediately fell silent.
Just then, they suddenly heard a commotion and gunfire outside the restaurant.
