Richest Mogul

Janine was on the night shift at the hotel when Maisy called. She had mixed feelings toward Maisy. 

“Mom, it was my fault. I regret leaving home after saying those things. I shouldn’t have been so impulsive, “Maisy admitted. 

Despite Maisy’s contrite words, Janine had started to distrust her. NôvelDrama.Org holds © this.

Janine’s response was cool and measured. “Realizing your mistake is a good start. You can’t rush with things. Time will tell.” 

After all, people’s true nature revealed itself over time. 

Maisy rolled her eyes in impatience. What did time have to do with anything? 

“Mom, something happened with the Williams family. I’m scared and lost. I don’t know who to talk to. I don’t know what to do…” Maisy’s voice cracked with helplessness as she sobbed. 

Janine sighed. “What happened?” 

Janine wasn’t too surprised. With the Williamses‘ demeanor, trouble was bound to happen. 

After some contemplation, Maisy said, “My mom was in a serious car accident. She had both legs amputated. Now she’s bedridden.” 

Janine was taken aback “Such a serious accident?” 

“Yeah, she’s been in denial ever since her surgery. We’re devastated. Skylar went to the hospital that day. but then left. Mom really wants to see her, but we can’t reach her. 

“Mom, can you please help us contact her and ask her to come to the hospital?” Malsy pleaded. 

Maisy’s motives became clear–since no one else could reach Skylar, she was sure Janine could help. 

She understood she needed to get Janine’s support to convince Skylar to delete the video so she could stop threatening her. 

Janine frowned. “Skye has been busy these days. Besides, this is Skye’s matter. I can’t help you convey anything. You should contact Skye yourselves.” 

In Janine’s eyes, Skylar was so kind–hearted. She wouldn’t have distanced herself from the Williams family without a good reason or some unknown issue. 

Though Janine wasn’t too overly perceptive, her eyes were keen. She couldn’t just stand by and let the Williams family mistreat Skylar. 

Maisy had never expected Janine to outright refuse her request. 

Fuming, Malsy said, “Skylar refuses to answer any of our calls. She blocked us all.” 

“There must be a reason why she blocked all of you guys. You must have hurt her deeply, which made her pull away. 

“With all of you around Mrs. Williams, she probably doesn’t need Skye. If she truly valued Skye, she wouldn’t have let her move out,” Janine reasoned firmly. 

Maisy felt even more frustrated. “Mom, we need her. We hope she can come and take care of my mom She can’t be left alone for 24 hours a day. 

“You guys can take shifts and hire a caretaker. You don’t necessarily need Skye. Plus, she just started her job and is steadily rising. She doesn’t have time to sit in the hospital. 

“It sounds like you guys wanted to look for Skye because no one wants to care for Mrs. Williams now. Janine sensed the Williams family’s intentions from Maisy’s words. 

The Williamses were selfish leeches. Maisy wouldn’t have called her if they didn’t have ulterior motives. And if they truly knew they were wrong, they wouldn’t have waited until today to apologize. 

Under the cover of night, Janine remained clear–headed and saw things for what they were. 

Seeing Janine articulate her thoughts so clearly infuriated Maisy. She wanted to lash out in rage, but instead took a deep breath. 

“Mom, you’ve got us wrong. We’re not asking Skylar to take care of her. We just need Skylar to come and keep Mom company. Especially now, Mom needs family support after her surgery.” 

“I still have a lot of work to do. There’s no point in you coming to me about this,” Janine replied. 

Janine didn’t want to entertain Maisy’s explanation anymore and hung up the phone.
