Richest Mogul

Chapter 951

As Skylar glanced at Minerva, an idea struck her. It occurred to her that Minerva’s recent mood swings might be connected to her

pregnancy. Perhaps the paperweight’s negative energy was affecting her state of mind.

“Negative item?” Minerva echoed. She was familiar with the term, as it had recently become a topic of conversation. While some people

were cautious about such things, others remained skeptical.

Minerva knew people from the Doherty family and was aware of their experiences and recent events involving the Ruell family. Believing in these things, she had arranged to meet Skylar after their encounter at the hospital.

Skylar explained the situation with the paperweight, and Minerva’s expression shifted as she listened. After a few minutes, Minerva said, “So this might explain my emotional changes. Honestly, I’ve been feeling quite unstable lately.”

Since the moment Rowan called off their engagement, and Minerva learned she was pregnant the previous day, she had been battling her emotions.

After all, Rowan had once been her fiancé, and their relationship had been significant. His abrupt departure had deeply affected her. She admitted that Jenny’s presence made her uneasy, leading her to investigate Jenny.

Minerva realized that her emotional instability might have heightened her sensitivity.

Skylar said, “If the paperweight is affecting you now, it could continue to do so in the future.”

Minerva frowned. “If I don’t want it to cause any more harm, should I

leave it to you to handle it?”

Skylar nodded with a smile. “Yes, I’ll make sure it’s completely destroyed.”

“Then I’ll leave it to you,” Minerva sald without hesitation. She had no desire to keep such a harmful object or let it hurt anyone else.

Skylar carefully took the paperweight from Minerva’s hands.

Minerva then said, “I keep forgetting to talk about payment. How much is it? I’ll transfer it now.”

Skylar had recently helped the Ruell family with a similar issue and had charged 20 million dollars. Some might see that as opportunistic, but she believed there was a reason behind it. After all, compared to the value of a life, 20 million dollars was nothing.

Skylar had a good impression of Minerva. The fact that she hadn’t fully succumbed to the paperweight’s negative influence showed her inner strength.

She smiled and said, “It’s a coincidence that I met you, Ms. Reid. For friendship’s sake, let’s make it 1,000 dollars.”

Minerva was surprised by the amount but soon smiled back at Skylar. “I feel lucky to have met you too. Let’s skip the formalities -just call me by my first name from now on.”

“Sounds good.”

Minerva didn’t send just 1,000 dollars. Wanting to show her sincerity in establishing a genuine friendship, she transferred 666,666 dollars.

She felt that amount was modest, considering the Ruell family’s issue had been billed at 20 million dollars. She had already disrupted the

market rate.

Skylar saw the large transfer and smiled. “Thank you.”

“No, I should be the one thanking you.” Minerva replied with a smile of her own.

Skylar checked the time. “It’s getting late. I should head out now.

Please take care and get some rest.

Just as Minerva was about to nod, she suddenly began dry–heaving uncontrollably. She ran to the nearby restroom, still heaving

A few minutes later, she emerged looking pale. She apologized to Skylar, saying, “Sorry about that. I’m pregnant so I’m not feeling that great.”
