Richest Mogul 864
Chapter 864
Before Paul could finish his sentence, someone appeared behind him.
The next moment, Joe snatched the phone right out of Paul’s hand.
Skylar was puzzled by the sudden silence on the other end of the line. Then she heard Joe’s voice.
“If you’re so concerned about me, why not just call me directly?” Joe said.
Skylar was caught off guard. She hadn’t expected Joe to overhear her conversation with Paul, let alone take over and speak to her himself.
Thankfully, she had just had some coffee, so her mind was sharp. She quickly responded, “I thought you might be busy.”
“Call me directly next time.” Joe’s tone was a bit commanding.
“Alright,” Skylar replied.
She expected Joe to return the phone to Paul and end the call. But Joe surprised her again by saying, ” Find some time to come by my company.”
Skylar was taken aback. She couldn’t quite figure out what Joe was thinking. She asked, “Aren’t you worried your employees will find out about our relationship?”
Joe said, “They’ll know sooner or later. Once we have the wedding, everyone in Jipsburg will know you’re my wife.”
Skylar gripped her phone tightly. A wedding… There was no hint or any intention to divorce her in his
words.
After a brief silence from Skylar, Joe’s eyes darkened slightly. Then, he said, “Alright, I’ll get back to work.”
“Okay, bye,” Skylar replied.
After the call ended, Skylar found herself momentarily lost in thought. She couldn’t stop thinking about her relationship with Joe.
Just then, Caleb encountered some issues and came to find her, snapping her out of her reverie.
Skylar hadn’t expected the wedding dresses to arrive so quickly. Not only did the ones she had selected arrive but several more had been sent along as well.
There was even a designer and a team of staff who came to assist. This belongs to NôvelDrama.Org - ©.
Skylar arrived home first. Edgar and the designers had been there for half an hour already.
Apologizing for making them wait, Skylar began trying on the wedding dresses individually.
When she was trying on the third wedding dress, Joe returned home. When Joe saw Skylar in her wedding dress, he couldn’t tear his eyes away.
Seeing Joe’s unwavering gaze fixed on Skylar, Edgar couldn’t help but smile internally. He could see Joe’s feelings through his eyes. It was clear from Joe’s eyes how much he was taken by Skylar,
Edgar couldn’t deny that Skylar was indeed beautiful, with a stunning figure. He was mesmerized as he watched. The designer praised her physique as well, not to mention how Joe felt about her.
The wedding dress accentuated her already fair skin, making it look even more like snow. She was
absolutely stunning.
Skylar was initially unaware of Joe’s presence. While the designer talked to her, asking if she was dissatisfied with any part of the wedding dress or felt uncomfortable in any way, she was focused on experiencing the wedding dress.
Although the wedding dresses might not all be used in the end, the experience was real.
When she accidentally glanced toward Joe, who was coming back, their eyes met. She was startled by the aggressive look in his eyes.
He…
“Mr. Martin, don’t you think this wedding dress looks particularly beautiful on Mrs. Martin?” Edgar asked at just the right moment.
Joe withdrew his gaze as if realizing his earlier look was a bit inappropriate. After clearing his throat, he said in a somewhat heavy voice, “Well, it’s not bad.”
Observing Joe’s reaction, Edgar thought, “What do you mean ‘not bad‘?”
Edgar was speechless. He thought Joe was just being stubborn.
