My Flash Romance With the Richest Mogul novel Chapter 1309

Aiken replied, "Okay."

After the call ended, Skylar pondered whether to inform Steven about Maisy. Unlike her, Steven hadn't experienced such inhumane suffering and did not need to know about this unsavory situation. It was better to let him think that Maisy was simply in hiding for a while.

With everything that had happened, Skylar found it impossible to fall asleep. She had also been reading, focusing on books related to psychology.

Today, she was supposed to visit the home of an elder, a friend of Gloria, Nicole Binder, who was celebrating her 80th birthday.

Skylar intended to bring a gift and also consult about fortune telling. Nicole had been facing some issues at home. Initially, she didn't want to celebrate her birthday due to her declining health, but it was suggested that a gathering could bring positive energy, so she agreed.

Skylar had hoped to catch a bit more sleep to recharge before heading over, but unexpected events in Jipsburg changed her plans.

She rubbed her temples and set down her book, then headed to the bathroom to freshen up.

…

In a dimly lit warehouse, Maisy was blindfolded, and a pair of smelly socks that someone had discarded were stuffed in her mouth.

Sounds echoed around her, the distant noise of video games being played. No matter how much noise she made, the others in the warehouse ignored her completely, treating her as if she were invisible.

At that moment, her fear began to dissipate. She couldn't believe that Steven would actually harm her. After all, she was his biological sister.

No matter what, she hadn't really hurt Mona. She wondered if he could go as far as to kill her.

The only issue was the unbearable stench of the socks stuffed in her mouth, reminiscent of something worn for a month without washing.
