Abel was rather shocked. He chuckled lightly and said, “Lil Sis, is something wrong with your hands?” Abel took another pair of utensils and handed them to Jocelyn.Jocelyn was slightly stunned. She did not accept the utensils from him.Lexie noticed Jocelyn’s unusual response and immediately said, “So what if he’s back? It has nothing to do with us!”Davis looked at Lexie and said, “I remember that you told me about him back when we were in university!” Lexie saw Jocelyn taking the utensils from Abel. She then lowered her head and continued eating. Lexie told Davis, “Wasn’t he really popular back in university? I simply admired him because I was curious about him back then. Don’t mention him now. He’s way too different from us!” Lexie had always been cold and untalkative. This was the first time Davis had seen her being so emotional!He could not help but chuckle and say, “Lexie, do you like Walter Keene? I was just talking about him randomly. Why are you being so emotiona
Jocelyn was stunned. A complicated glint flashed across her eyes as she instinctively retorted, “I don’t know him!”Skyler felt that Jocelyn’s reaction was rather odd. “You said that a little too quickly!” Jocelyn calmed down a little and said, “I just heard about him back in university. After all, he was very popular back then!” Skyler’s gaze flashed. “Is that so?” Jocelyn remained silent. She could not bring herself to admit that she liked Walter, and she had been humiliated by his fiancée once! Everything was in the past. That had nothing to do with her anymore! Jocelyn remained silent for a while and placed the original draft in her hands on Skyler’s office desk. “President Moore, this is the original design draft that I wanted to submit to the Dawnlight Jewelry Competition. I’ve completed it!” Skyler took the draft and glanced at it. “It’s not bad!”Jocelyn thought about Millie. Suddenly, she did not feel like getting revenge on her.She asked Skyler, “Millie
Jocelyn’s gaze was way too sharp. It was as if her gaze was a laser that pierced through Fiona. Nobody in the design department knew about her design draft getting switched except for her and Davis. They have yet to find out the true culprit behind this case!Fiona seemed to know that she would not be able to get any awards. This incident might be related to her! Fiona felt rather guilty under Jocelyn’s harsh glare. Her expression changed slightly. “I…How can I know if you’ll be able to get an award? I just think that you don’t have the ability to win an award consecutively. Aren’t I allowed to think so?” Jocelyn looked at Fiona expressionlessly without saying anything. Fiona felt slightly enraged as well. She flung off Jocelyn’s arm and shouted, “Why are you staring at me like that! What do you getting an award or not have to do with me?” Jocelyn’s expression was unreadable as she said, “Fiona, you’re feeling guilty!” Fiona looked annoyed. She shouted angrily, “Jocel
Jocelyn’s expression changed slightly as she looked at Skyler instinctively.Skyer remained expressionless. He spoke in a light tone. The tone of his voice made it seem like he was talking about some everyday matter instead of such cruel words!Giada’s body weakened as she raised her head to look at Skyler frantically. Tears spilled down her eyes. She grabbed Abel’s sleeve and choked out, “Cousin, I was wrong! I really made a mistake! Save me!” Abel turned around to look at Skyler with a stiff expression on his face. He said in a flat tone, “She’s a designer. Don’t you think that you’re being way too harsh on her?”No matter what mistakes Giada made, she was still his cousin! No matter how much he disliked Giada, he could not watch as her future got ruined just like that. Skyler asked softly, “Am I being harsh on her?” Nobody replied to his question. Skyler added, “Abel, I initially wanted both of her hands. After all, why would she need her hands if she loves acting
Jocelyn froze and sat down while gritting her teeth.Giada suddenly looked at Jocelyn. She crawled toward her and said, “Jocelyn White, I’m sorry. It’s all my fault. I was the one who ordered Millie to switch your design draft. I know that her father is sick, and she’s in urgent need of money. I bribed the people by my cousin’s side and used his account to transfer the funds to Millie!“I was naive for thinking that you wouldn’t do anything to my cousin if you found that he was behind everything. I was the one who asked someone to delete the company’s surveillance camera recordings as well. It’s all my fault. I shouldn’t be jealous of you. I shouldn’t have gone against you. I really know that I’m at fault. Ask Skyler to forgive me, alright?”There was an unpleasant expression on Jocelyn’s face. She sat there stiffly without saying anything. Giada pulled at the cuff of her pants as her voice broke, she continued, “Jocelyn White, you’re a designer. You know how important a designer’
Jocelyn stared at him without saying anything. There was an unpleasant expression on her face. Somehow, Skyler felt rather uncomfortable under her stare. He laughed sarcastically and said, “Do as you wish!”After speaking, he got up and walked outside.Jocelyn knew that Skyler was definitely unhappy with her. After all, he had spent plenty of effort to find out the truth to help her out. However, she had rejected his help.Skyler would definitely feel enraged since she was not appreciating his efforts. However, she really did not want Skyler to take action himself. Jocelyn would feel terrified if he broke someone else’s hand like it was an everyday matter. Jocelyn did not know that people like Giada would not mind her so-called punishment at all. Not only will Giada not appreciate her actions, but she would only hate her more and do crazier things in the futureHowever, Jocelyn did not think of any of this right now. She had never encountered someone like Giada before. Sh
Jocelyn stiffened as her face paled. She looked at Skyler in disbelief. She felt extremely awkward.She did not expect Skyler to blurt out such words. She knew that Skyler was unhappy that she had insisted on refusing to let him punish Giada in the afternoon. He must have thought that she was a joke.However, even so, he could just have told her that he did not want to help her. Why must he humiliate her like that?Jocelyn gritted her teeth as her eyes turned red-rimmed. Her pride would not allow her to lower herself to beg for Skyler’s help. She took in a deep breath and tried her best not to lose her composure. “Right, Mr. Moore. You’re right. There isn’t any relationship between us. I was way too full of myself. There’s no reason for you to help me out, Mr. Moore. I was being rash. Let me apologize. In the future, I won’t cross the line anymore. I’m sorry!” After speaking, Jocelyn walked upstairs hurriedly. Skyler was stunned. He did not know what he had just said.
Jocelyn’s hand froze mid-air. Yale looked at Jocelyn in shock. “Miss White, are you here to look for President Moore?” Jocelyn put down her hand rather unnaturally and nodded. “Yes, I’m here to get some documents from President Moore!”Yale nodded and left the office. Jocelyn walked into the office. Skyler did not raise his head at all. His head remained lowered as he looked at some documents. He had told Davis to ask Jocelyn to come over to his office to fetch the documents regarding the Ocean Heart Jewelry Competition, which will be held in Greene City, when she was free. However, he did not expect Jocelyn to come over after everything that he had told her last night.Jocelyn noticed that Skyler was completely ignoring her. She instantly thought about everything that happened last night. She pressed her lips together in a self-mocking manner. As expected, she had been way too full of herself previously. She was so naive to assume that he cared for her a little after
