My Flash Romance With the Richest Mogul novel Chapter 1585

Skylar said coldly, "Leave before I lose my temper."

Ruth crossed her arms and sneered. "That quick to fly into a rage? Did I hit a nerve? Are you afraid I'll uncover more of the truth, so you're trying to drive me away? If you're bold enough to do it, why do you fear me finding out?"

"Where did this idiot come from?" Caleb muttered, his lips twitching with disbelief. She wasn't bad-looking, but her thought process seemed completely scrambled.

"You called me an idiot? You're nothing but a kept man living off a woman. What right do you have to insult me? Do you think Skylar will keep protecting you forever? Wait until Joe finds out about your relationship with her.

"Who knows what he'll do to you? And Skylar—don't think Joe won't divorce you when he learns the truth."

Ruth stood there with a triumphant expression as if she had uncovered some great truth. It was almost laughable.

Caleb couldn't help but burst into laughter, loud and uninhabited. He laughed so hard he couldn't get a word out. He had been called many things in his life, but this was the first time anyone had dared label him a kept man.

If being with Skylar made him a kept man, then he would gladly sign up for that life. He might even wake up laughing in his dreams.

On the other hand, Skylar tugged at the corner of her lips, entirely speechless.

Ruth stared at Caleb, confused by his sudden laughter. "What's so funny? What's there to laugh about? Are you just trying to cover up your guilt by laughing it off?"

Her words sounded confident, but doubt crept into her expression. Neither Skylar nor Caleb seemed nervous or guilty—far from the panicked reactions one might expect from people caught red-handed.

"I'm laughing at how stupid you are. Are you sure you have a brain? If you do, do you even use it? In this day and age, it's rare to find someone as dumb as you. Truly one of a kind."

Once Caleb had laughed to his heart's content, he immediately launched into a tirade.

With that, he turned to Skylar. "You should head home. I'll deal with this idiot—it's kind of my specialty."

Skylar checked the time, then said casually, "Do you remember that incident three years ago when Finn and Miriam forced my brother to donate a kidney? She's their daughter."
