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
Michael's face turned pale in an instant and cold sweat dripped from his forehead.Skyler said, “Mr. White, my patience is limited.”Michael's brows twitched fiercely, and he quickly reached out to wipe the cold sweat from his forehead. After that, he said forcefully, “I can give you the things, President Moore, but I'll only do it after Lily and Chad get married.”Michael was smart and Stuart was not an ordinary person in Mauve City. In such a short period, he could collect enough evidence and report Stuart, so it showed how powerful he was, and he was definitely not someone that ordinary people could offend.Skyler glanced at Michael mockingly. He thought Michael was very domineering because of how he threatened Jocelyn.It was just so-so.He stood up and left Michael with a sentence. “They can get the marriage certificate today; I hope you won't let me down.”After Skyler finished speaking, he got up and left.As he walked to the door of the box, he remembered something, so
The harsh doorbell made Jocelyn extremely uncomfortable.She frowned slightly, got up from the sofa, and planned to jump on one foot to open the door.As a result, before she could move, she saw the servant appear and went to open the door.Hence, she sat back down, and after a while, she saw the servant come in, followed by an angry Lily behind her.Jocelyn was taken aback and also a little surprised.She did not expect that Lily would find No. 1, North Court.However, at this moment, she was a little confused about Lily's tantrum. It stood to reason that Lily wanted to marry Chad, so now that something happened to the Quirrel family, wouldn’t she have a better chance of winning?Lily came here with such a menacing expression, and it was as if Jocelyn had done something unreasonable.Before Lily came here, she felt extremely hateful.Now, Jocelyn was living in a place where every inch of land was extremely expensive. Plus, the elegant style and low-key luxury of No. 1, North
The servant never thought that Lily would act so suddenly and crazily.Lily threw Jocelyn directly on the sofa, her sharp nails furiously digging into Jocelyn's face.Jocelyn did not expect Lily to act so crazy.Her ankle was hurt, and she could not move easily. Her uninjured toes kicked hard on the ground and her body moved backward forcefully.However, Lily was too aggressive, and she was so fast and ruthless, hence, Jocelyn did not manage to dodge her attacks.Lily's fingernails broke the skin on her neck and four bloody marks instantly appeared on Jocelyn's neck.Jocelyn gasped in pain and reached out to cover her neck.The servant had already reacted and rushed over to pull Lily away.No one noticed that when Lily rushed over, the door of the villa was opened from the outside.Before the servant could get to the sofa, a hand directly grabbed the back of Lily’s neck and threw her out.Lily hit the ground and she even knocked down the porcelain vase beside her.The vase s
