Richest Mogul

Chapter 1068

Molly remained silent for a moment. “That’s impossible. Skylar doesn’t have that kind of ability.” Content property of NôvelDra/ma.Org.

Skylar might have thought something was off when she saw the ring, but there was no trace of negative energy on it. With Skylar’s experience and abilities, she wouldn’t have found any flaws.

Hearing Molly’s confident tone, Vera felt slightly relieved, though something still felt off.

“The statue I left in the bedroom… It won’t bring any weird or dangerous consequences to my family, will it?” Vera asked, her voice tinged with worry.

She couldn’t help but think of the string of accidents that had befallen the Ruell family. They made her feel uneasy.

She couldn’t afford to let any more accidents happen If things went wrong again, she couldn’t face her family, and she certainly wouldn’t have the courage to ask Skylar for help again.

Molly heard this and seemed to have lost all patience. In exasperation, she responded, “No, there won’t be any danger. Don’t worry.”

“The statue will only help you achieve your desires, but you must be patient. Follow my advice–find opportunities to spend more time with Joe. The statue will only work if you two are frequently around each other.”

Vera finally felt convinced. “Alright.”

After hanging up with Molly, she quickly returned Denton’s call.

He had been trying to reach her several times. “Grandpa.”

“What’s going on between you and Joe? When you came home the other day, you said everything was going well between you two and that you’d be engaged soon.

“Now, today, he’s announced his engagement to someone else? Were you lying to me this whole time?” Denton’s voice trembled with anger.

Several of his friends had called him earlier, asking about the situation. He had gone his entire life without ever being so embarrassed, only to have Vera bring him to disgrace.

Vera’s eyes welled up with tears at the reprimand. Thankfully, she was in her car. No one could see her cry. She felt so wronged.

“Grandpa, there’s a misunderstanding between Joe and me. He got engaged to someone else out of spite. I can’t explain everything over the phone, but I swear what I told you before was true. I just need Joe to realize he made a mistake and come back to me. His sudden engagement really hurt me.”

Hearing Vera’s words, Denton felt a bit relieved. “Alright, I believe you. There’s too much gossip going. around right now. Just ignore it. You’re right–Joe needs to come to you and apologize. What he did this time was unacceptable.”

Vera nodded along with Denton’s words. “You’re right, Grandpa.”

After ending the call, she slumped back in her seat, utterly exhausted and completely drained.

After a long pause, she suddenly remembered something and immediately dialed Joe’s number. But he didn’t pick up.

She kept trying, calling several times, but he still didn’t pick up. She wondered if he was really refusing to answer her calls now.

Vera bit her lip in frustration, then thought of Skylar. She felt that she should call Skylar.

However, like with Joe, Skylar didn’t answer after multiple calls either.

The images of Joe’s beaming face as he proudly announced his management to Lizzie in that video flashed in Vera’s mind. He looked like he truly liked Lizzie. 1

Maybe Skylar had seen the news by now and was just as panicked as she was.
