My Flash Romance With the Richest Mogul

“What happened?” Skylar asked with urgency.

Janine had always been kind and warm. She could get along with anyone, anywhere.

Skylar knew that and wondered what had caused the receptionist to suddenly frown.

“Your mother was cleaning the elevator. She got into an argument with a guest who was going to the restaurant on the 36th floor for a meal. The guest has lodged a complaint against our hotel.”

The receptionist was panicking a little. She explained things to Skylar while also dialing the manager’s

number.

Jubilance Hotel had always valued customer service, so they took complaints seriously.

Although Janine had only been there here for a month, she was on great terms with her colleagues. They liked the Janine a lot and thought she was friendly.

Yet, now that the complaint had been lodged, no one knew how the manager would handle the situation.

Skylar immediately followed the receptionist into the elevator and onto the tenth floor. She heard an ongoing conversation inside the hotel’s offices before entering the space.

“You must be strict when dealing with this woman. We can look past her being rude to hotel guests in the

elevator, but how dare she hit my mother?” said one of the guests.

Then, the other guest joined in. “My diamond ring, worth hundreds of thousands of dollars, is missing. Only three of us were in the elevator, so this woman must’ve stolen it! I demand that you search her now!”

“You’re going too far, Sadie! I would never steal from someone. Plus, you were the one who beat me first. I was only defending myself! Janine challenged.

Skylar halted once she heard the familiar voices. They belonged to Maisy and Sadie.

She hadn’t seen the two of them since she’d left the hospital that day.

Skylar had seen Maisy and Christopher on a date from afar when she’d bought her car. However, she’d

never encountered them face to face.

Skylar listened to the mother–daughter pair hurling aggressive accusations at Janine. She pursed her lips and clenched her fists, suppressing her fiery hatred as she rushed toward the office.

“Janine, apologize to the guest and allow us to perform a body search as the guest requested. The manager immediately dealt with Janine once he arrived.

Janine had never imagined the manager would push all the blame onto her without trying to learn the

truth.

“If you fail to find my ring. I’ll get the media to expose your hotel for having staff with tendencies to steal things.” Sadie carried herself with a condescending, arrogant demeanor.

.

She wanted Janine to know the difference between their social classes. Since Janine hadn’t educated Skylar well enough, Sadie had taken it upon herself to teach Janine a lesson.

Maisy, who stood aside, looked down on Janine even more now that she knew Janine worked as a hotel housekeeper.

At the same time, she became even more determined not to return to Janine’s side.

Maisy

Janine saw Maisy’s indifference and how she’d joined forces with Sadie to frame her. Her initial motherly love and guilt toward Maisy vanished at once.

Her eyes reddened as she held her ground in front of the manager. “What they said isn’t the truth. They’re framing me!”

“You should apologize first.” The manager didn’t believe Janine’s words. He only focused on Maisy and Sadie, who donned branded clothing pieces from head to toe.

“I…” Janine’s fists balled. No matter how miserable she’d been, she’d never cried a single tear since Finn’s

death.

Yet, the shame she felt from being framed now reddened her eyes.

in the elevator. If I call the police now, they’ll investigate the surveillance footage at once.” Skylar’s cold eyes snapped toward Sadie and Maisy.

“You two are the ones who should apologize. There are surveillance cameras t

She had witnessed many of their schemes. Now that she’d crossed paths with them again, she still found them as hideous and beastly as ever. It didn’t matter that they dressed up nicely.

“Skyel” Janine was surprised to see Skylar.

Skylar approached Janine’s side. “Mom, they aren’t legally allowed to perform a full body search, even if

you’re their employee.”

“Do you know what you’re saying, Skye?” Sadie questioned angrily. Content bel0ngs to Nôvel(D)r/a/ma.Org.

“Skylar, we haven’t seen you in days. Yet, the first thing you do when you show yourself is upset Mom? Aren’t you going a little too far?” Maisy sneered with an accusing tone as she eyed Skylar from head to

toe with disdain.

She assumed Skylar had been hiding somewhere since she hadn’t seen the latter in days.

Not only that, but she also firmly believed Skylar must have been drowning in tears every day and had possibly become depressed or haggard.
