Richest Mogul

Joe had been on the verge of sleep, but now it had slipped away. Although his 

expression remained frosty, he held Skylar tightly. 

He could see that she was deeply hurt. Moreover, she seemed quite frightened from 

her nightmare. 

In his embrace, Skylar gradually calmed down. It was as though she had broken free 

from the terrifying scenes of her dreams. 

“I hate you guys,” she muttered calmly after regaining composure. 

Joe heard Skylar’s declaration of hatred. He could not help but wonder if she was 

referring to Christopher and Maisy. 

If it was them, she could simply tell him, and he could get rid of them effortlessly. 

However, Joe knew that Skylar wanted to handle the matter herself. So, he decided NôvelDrama.Org © content.

to feign ignorance for now. 

When Joe was woken up, he was convinced he couldn’t fall back asleep. But before 

he knew it, he gradually drifted into slumber again, soothed by the steady rhythm of 

Skylar’s breathing. 

After Kenny transferred the remaining balance from his account, the past few days. 

had been exceptionally challenging for him. 

Having grown accustomed to dining at famous restaurants, he now found himself only able to grab a few bites at the office. 

Kenny’s colleagues, who had previously showered him with flattery, seemed to have caught wind of the Williamses‘ situation. Consequently, they began subtly probing 

and insinuating various things. 

Kenny noticed a distinct shift in how his colleagues treated him following Steven’s return from his business trip. Once eager to please him, they were now currying favor With Steven. 

Kenny couldn’t shake the feeling of being marginalized within the company. Furthermore, his confidence in research and development was waning. 

During his lunch break, he called Peter. 

“You haven’t transferred any money to me these past two months. I’m almost broke now. Can you please deposit some money into my account? I don’t need much. One million dollars will do,” said Kenny. 

Peter angrily countered, “Kenny, you should know about the company’s situation. We’re facing unprecedented challenges now. 

“Our accounts are running dry. Dad and I are racking our brains to find ways to salvage the situation, and you’re aware of this. So, why are you still asking me for money? Don’t you have your monthly salary?” 

Kenny’s expression darkened upon being questioned. “My salary is only a few tens of thousands of dollars a month. It’s barely enough to cover my daily expenses. Is the company really in such dire straits?” 

He knew the family’s company was in trouble. Otherwise, they wouldn’t have looked for Skylar. 

But was it really at the point where they could not even afford their living expenses? Kenny had never imagined things would become so challenging. 

Worry and fatigue were written all over Peter’s face as he sat by the floor–to–ceiling 

window in his office. 

Back then, he was full of ambition upon graduating. He had envisioned expanding the Williamses‘ business, but now… 

“Perhaps it’s even more serious than you think,” Peter began. “Over the past couple of years, Dad and I have taken out bank loans to expand our business. 

“There’s a possibility that our company will go under, and we’ll face bankruptcy. By 

then, our family will be burdened with massive debts.” 

Kenny’s heart faltered after learning about it. “There must be a way out, right? When you were in school, your natural knack for business insight was evident.

“You could spot opportunities that others couldn’t. The company has thrived under your leadership over the past few years. So, I’m confident you can come up with a plan to turn things around.” 

The thought of the Williams family losing everything sent Kenny into a panic. 

After thinking about it, Peter answered truthfully, “Prepare yourself mentally. It’s likely the company will go under. But Dad and I will do everything we can to revive it.” 

With that, he did not say anything more and hung up. 

Kenny, on the other hand, was in a daze in the
