My Flash Romance With the Richest Mogul novel Chapter 140

Chapter 140 

Shirley raised on eyebrow and suggested, “You’re so lucky to be with Mr. Martin,” 

In their circle, having a financial backer ensured a smooth path. Many wished to latch onto Joe. Yet, they only dared to dream about it without any chance of contact. 

Skylar knew Shirley’s words had a deeper meaning. She thought about it and decided there was no need to explain. 

At today’s event, she would likely not have the chance to come again. Nor would she meet these people again. 

“You would be wasting your talent not being in the entertainment industry,” Shirley said, looking at Skylar closely. 

Beautiful yet desirable and with a great figure, Skylar could become a top star in no time if she entered the entertainment industry with Joe’s support. 

Skylar smiled. “Everyone excels in different areas. I don’t really like being in front of cameras.” 

Shirley shrugged and said, “You’re right. Everyone excels in different things. If I weren’t acting, I wouldn’t know what else to do.” 

They chatted casually for a few more moments. 

Right then, the door was pushed open. 

“Mr. Jakeman, sorry I’m late. Happy birthday!” 

Skylar and Shirley looked over together.

Rowan waved it off and replied, “You’re not late. We haven’t eaten the cake yet.” 

Annie walked toward Rowan and Joe as if she didn’t see anyone else there. She handed over a gift bag to Rowan. “This is your birthday present.” 

“Thank you!” Rowan responded. 

Noticing Annie’s continual glances at Joe, he teased, “Didn’t you two just meet a few days ago? Joe was on your show. Why does it still seem so awkward?” 

A blush spread across Annie’s face. “Can you just shut up on your birthday, Mr. Jakeman?” 

Joe nodded slightly toward Annie as a greeting to acknowledge her presence. For them, Joe’s nodding

was a sign of recognition. But the depth of their relationship was unclear. 

Rowan thought of something and looked at Skylar. He wondered why it felt like Joe was warmer to his secretary than to Annie. 

“Do you know Annie? Joe no longer needs you. Would you consider joining me? I can offer worse than Joe’s, Mark whispered from behind Skylar in a low voice.

He was likely afraid of being overheard. 

Skylar was caught off guard by Mark while she was observing Joe and Annie. Just a few hours ago, Joe had told her that he had nothing to do with Annie. But now, seeing their interactions, it didn’t seem like it
