My Flash Romance With the Richest Mogul novel Chapter 1596

Joe withdrew his gaze and tugged at his tie.

"I'll head upstairs to change. Be right back."

Skylar noticed something seemed off about him but didn't dwell on it.

Joe had been extremely busy lately. He was probably overworked and exhausted. Coupled with the gloomy, rainy day, it was no surprise his mood might be affected.

Once she finished setting the table, Skylar sat down to wait for him.

Joe soon came downstairs in his loungewear.

They exchanged a few casual words during dinner but didn't talk much.

After finishing their meal, Joe washed the dishes and returned to sit with Skylar on the couch. His expression turned serious as he finally spoke.

"On the way home earlier, Elsie blocked my car."

Skylar raised an eyebrow. "Elsie?"

For a moment, she couldn't recall who that was, though the name felt vaguely familiar. It must be some she had encountered before.

"You saw her last time at the airport when you came to pick me up," Joe clarified.

Skylar immediately remembered and nodded. "I remember now. What did she want?"

Joe gave a faint acknowledgment. "She claimed she's someone who has been reborn."

"What?" Skylar said in surprise.

She had always suspected that someone would be reborn again, but she didn't expect it to resurface so soon—and with someone she had previously met.

But something didn't add up.

Why had Elsie approached Joe specifically? Could it be…

"If she told you about her rebirth, then what she said must have been related to you, right?" Skylar guessed.
