Richest Mogul

Chapter 1141

So, Molly’s case might end up with a different result than the originally thought car accident.

Skylar saw that Joe had already returned once she entered the house.

“Aiken found out some things about Molly. Her elder sister was killed in bed by Edwin and a few others. But they handled it secretly, making sure Grandma never knew. So, Molly married Edwin to get revenge, turning him into a complete wreck.”

When Joe spoke about Edwin, he directly used the word wreck, showing just how much he despised and loathed his father.

Even without Molly, Edwin was never a decent person to begin with.

After listening to Joe, Skylar understood everything.

No wonder Molly got involved with Edwin and allowed herself to be manipulated. It was all because she wanted revenge.

“Did he know about Molly’s past?” she asked.

Joe’s face was expressionless as he replied, “He just found out. Molly’s sister was only 18 and had just become a top student in the SAT when she was killed. They were worse than animals!”

After listening to Joe’s words, Skylar suddenly felt sympathy for Molly. She had pursued her revenge step by step, sacrificing her chance at happiness, only to lose her life in the end.

“Were the people involved in this incident back then still in Jipsburg?” Skylar asked again.

After so many years, with Molly spending over two decades by Edwin’s side, she must have gotten her revenge before anyone realized.

“They’ve either died from illness or had fatal accidents,” Joe said in a cold tone.

Skylar wasn’t surprised. It seemed that during her years married to Edwin, Molly gradually uncovered the truth about these people. Those who had harmed others deserved their fate and didn’t merit any sympathy.

“This also explains some things. Edwin must have had the company of cursed objects during his time abroad. Living with him every day, Molly must have been affected by these influences

too.

“This car accident, which seems to have some hidden elements, might even be a result of these evil influences drawing disaster upon her,” Skylar speculated.

Of course, if Molly’s car accident was indeed an accident, then perhaps Edwin…

Thus, the conspiracy theories about someone intentionally silencing Molly might not hold up

at all.

“I’m going for a smoke on the balcony,” Joe said as he stood up and headed outside.

Watching his lonely figure, Skylar felt a weight in her chest.

She could empathize with what Joe was feeling right now. The pain caused by one’s biological parents wasn’t something that can be easily put into words. Copyright by Nôv/elDrama.Org.

Edwin’s mistakes had harmed many people, causing Joe to lose his mother and grow up without his father’s presence, carrying the burden of hatred toward him.

Anyone would need time to process that.

She grabbed two bottles of water and went to the balcony. As soon as she got there, Joe hugged her, and she hugged him back.

The wind on the balcony was strong, but Joe’s warmth dispelled any chill.

“Don’t leave me,” he said.

Skylar’s heart clenched tightly.

“Okay,” she replied.

As long as he kept his promise, she would stay by his side just as she said, walking through life together.

A few days later, Lizzie found Skylar and asked her for a favor.

Lizzie had heard that Skylar’s shop was looking to hire a jewelry designer and hoped she would consider hiring a young woman she knew even though the young woman didn’t have any formal education.
