My Flash Romance With the Richest Mogul novel Chapter 1281

Austin was now certain that Ned must be Joe. Aiken tapped his fingers on the desk, weighing his options as he picked up his phone to review the recent chat history with Skylar.

He pondered whether he should share this information with her. Just then, a call came in.

"Mr. Parkinson, Ms. Parkinson is still in contact with that poor guy. They just came out of the cinema together."

Upon hearing this, Aiken's expression hardened. "Keep following them, but don't let Simona find out. Find two girls that fit Stephen's type and have them charm him."

"Got it, Mr. Parkinson."

Aiken felt a headache coming on. Simona had been increasingly rebellious lately. She seemed drawn to Stephen Pearce despite claiming she wouldn't contact him anymore.

Stephen's troubled background made him unsuitable for Simona. However, Stephen was skilled at putting on a façade and had enough patience to charm her. Simona was still young and easily swayed by such a polished exterior.

With that in mind, Aiken sighed, glancing back at his phone. He stared at Skylar's profile picture for a moment.

In the end, he decided to send the document along with his suspicions to Skylar.

He could use any means necessary without a second thought when it came to others. No matter how underhanded the methods were, they didn't matter as long as he achieved his goal. Nothing else was important.

But with Skylar, he didn't want to resort to such methods. He understood the distance between them all too well. Some thoughts were best kept to himself. He couldn't risk breaking that fragile barrier.

Moreover, given Skylar's family background, Steven and Charles would never agree to her being with someone like him, whose background was complicated.

At this hour, Skylar was probably already resting and likely wouldn't respond. Aiken rubbed his temples before stepping out of his study and dialing Simona's number.
