Zayn said up till this point, he had no intention of keeping anything from her. "You weren’t the only one who drank that thing that night, many others did too. That time, Lynn also..."Jocelyn had known this for a long time. She made no comments and listened quietly.Zayn continued, "Alas, she had been unlucky. She had been feeling ill at the time and went to rest in our guest room. Chad ended up mistaking her when he came to pick Yvonne up..."Jocelyn was shocked. She really had not known about it!Zayn was somewhat helpless as he said, "I knew it the next day. My mother knew something was off with Lynn and wanted me to stay with her. So, she had her stay in my guest room and got me to deliver some soup to Lynn. But I didn't know anything, I had Chad help me make the delivery and Lynn mistook him for me!"Jocelyn knew that Lynn liked Zayn, but she never thought that Lynn would sleep with Chad while mistaking him for Zayn.She really just… went out for wool and came home shorn!
Zayn was surprised. "How could your injury have anything to do with this?"Jocelyn sighed helplessly. "You know that none of the White family have anything to do with Prosperity Jewelry except me. But Lily wants to marry Chad so she can only look to me for a solution. My father threatened me with a letter my mother left me to make me beg Skyler to let Lily into Prosperity Jewelry!"Jocelyn looked a little frazzled. "I really had no other choice. It’s likely the Jones family is hesitating, they don't know which family to marry Chad into. My father has been urging me to ask Skyler for help and he has been very persistent. Moreover, with how Skyler is, how could he let Lily, a person with a bad reputation, join the company? I figured I couldn’t ask him. I really have no choice but to choose the awful decision of going back to the White Mansion to steal the letter!"Zayn frowned fiercely. "So, you hurt your ankle when you went back to the White Mansion to get them?"Jocelyn nodded. "My
Skyler's eyes flickered slightly. "The one who caused everything at the Claude family dinner?"Yale nodded. "He used a fake name when he snuck into Claude Mansion. Our people looked into his identity and tracked him all the way abroad. He thought that the dust had settled since several days had passed so he used his mobile phone and bank card. Our people immediately captured him and sent him back to the country. They just got off the plane! Look..."Skyler went quiet for a moment. “Have him brought to Aster Gardens!"Skyler hung up the call. He glanced at Jocelyn's room then turned away.Lynn arrived at the hospital not long after Skyler left.After Zayn left, Lexie and Davis came to the ward.When she noticed that the ward was empty, she could not help frowning. "Where is Director Claude?"Jocelyn said, "He has other things to attend to. How can he stay here the entire time?"Lexie wondered. "What about Skyler? Where did he go?"Jocelyn’s expression changed slightly. “He came
Hearing this, Lynn stood up from the sofa. "You mean to say Yvonne used me! What she said about you fancying Jocelyn was a lie? And this was because she likes Skyler, but since Skyler appreciates Jocelyn's talents, she regards Jocelyn as an imaginary enemy. Yet, instead of taking action herself, she used me to go against Jocelyn?"Lynn knew that Yvonne liked Skyler.However, she had not thought of the possibility that Yvonne would use her.Seeing Lynn's expression of anger and disbelief, Zayn felt some sympathy. "What else? It’s not a shameful thing if I like Jocelyn either and it would not be something I need to hide from you, but she's just my friend now. Can you understand?"Lynn felt as if she had suffered a significant blow and teetered.She muttered to herself, "I... understand now!"She suddenly looked up at Zayn. There was a bit of hatred in her voice that Zayn could not understand. She said, "Yvonne lied to me!"If it had not been for Yvonne, she would not have wanted t
Who would have thought that Skyler's reaction would be faster than that of his bodyguards? He avoided the pruning scissors and immediately with a kick, struck Cezar’s chest.The pruning scissors flew out of Cezar’s hand and he was kicked into the flowers. The thorns of the roses scratched his entire body.Skyler stood before the flowers coldly. "Cezar, have you decided? Will you talk… or not?!"Cezar trembled with fear.Skyler's gaze fell on the scissors and he opened his mouth calmly. "Yale, question him, and break a finger every time you do! There’s a limit to my patience!"Yale nodded. He bent down and picked up the pruning scissors.Cezar's pupil suddenly shrank. He was really afraid. This man was far more powerful and terrible than he had imagined.His voice trembled, but he spoke quickly and fearfully. “Lynn Quirrel! Lynn Quirrel had me tamper with the wine. She also drank the tampered wine herself, so that others wouldn’t suspect her!"Skyler's eyes flashed darkly. "Why
Jocelyn interrupted Zayn, “Lexie, you should go to the parking lot first with Davis, I have a few words with Director Claude.”Lexie nodded and followed Davis to the parking lot.Davis glanced at Lexie before saying hesitantly, “Lexie… Are you and Jocelyn hiding something from me?”Lexie was a little unnatural, “No, we have nothing to hide from you!”Davis raised his eyebrows, “You guys should know Walter. You have a good relationship, right? I remember you mentioned him many times in front of me during university.”Lexie did not expect that Davis would remember something from university.She pursed her lips and looked at Davis with a complicated expression. Since he remembered so many things, why couldn’t he deduce that she liked him?Could it be that she was not obvious enough when she was in university?Lexie was a little disappointed. She said to Davis, “I can't tell you about this, but don't talk about Walter in front of Jocelyn, she doesn't want to hear it.”Davis was a
Lynn accidentally cut her finger. She gasped in pain and quickly asked the servant to bring her the first aid kit. Then, she disinfected her wound and put a plaster on it.Only then did she continue to unbox the parcel, but when she looked into the box, her right eye started twitching.Lynn did not take it to heart and continued to unbox.When her eyes focused on the box and saw the contents inside, she instantly let out a shrill scream and threw the box away.Mr. Quirrel stood up straight from the sofa. “What's wrong?”When his eyes fell on the thing thrown from the box, his eyes narrowed immediately, and he looked at the servant. Then, he scolded angrily, “How can you bring this kind of thing into the house?”The servant looked innocent and scared, “Sir, I didn't know this was in the box!”Mr. Quirrel had a terrifyingly unpleasant look on his face. “Take this away now!”When Mrs. Quirrel saw her daughter trembling with fear, she went to sit next to her to comfort her.The se
Mr. Quirrel's face changed drastically. "What?" As soon as he finished speaking, he saw the familiar Officer Black walking in with a group of people, "Mr. Quirrel, someone has reported that you have been embezzling and taking bribes many times. Now we have conclusive evidence against you, so please come with us."Mr. Quirrel's face changed greatly. He never thought that it would happen so suddenly. He knew something was going to happen when he just learned that the person who sent the photos and finger yesterday was Skyler. However, he never thought that it would be so fast. Mr. Quirrel turned pale and allowed Officer Black to handcuff him. Lynn's expression also changed drastically. When Mr. Quirrel was walking out in handcuffs, she was finally scared. Lynn held her father's hand and did not let go, "Dad, I was wrong. I will go to apologize to Skyler with you. Please think of a way so they won't take you away." Mr. Quirrel's face was gray, and for a while, he seemed to have lost
