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
The servant nodded quickly and went to make the call.Every time Skyler touched the cotton on her wound, Jocelyn's eyes that were closed from the pain would tremble involuntarily.Skyler looked at the curvature of her raised chin and it looked like a swan lifting its neck when it was about to take off. The curvature was so extraordinarily beautiful.It was a pity that this swan's neck was scratched.His Adam's apple could not help but move slightly and his movements became unconsciously gentler.Jocelyn could not stop herself from saying, “Mr. Moore, are you done?”Skyler remembered that she had called his name when she was feeling urgent before, but now she had become calm and distant again.There was a look of contingency on his face and there was a hint of irony in his voice, “Aren’t you pretty bad*ss when you face me? Didn’t you also fight in Serene Court before, so how can you get beaten by a woman? Where did the energy that you used to beat Giada go?”Jocelyn's face was tense. Sh
Michael glanced at Lily angrily. “Lynn's father was arrested, and he committed suicide in prison. Her mother also jumped off a building so Lynn has no capital to fight with you anymore. If you didn’t do all these so stupidly, you won’t suffer in vain!”Lily had no idea that things would turn around.When she thought of her behavior today, it was no different from looking for trouble. Suddenly, she extremely regretted what she had done, and she burst into tears.Michael got her into the car, took her to the hospital to bandage her wound, and said in a low voice, “Do you know who did that to the Quirrel family?”Lily shook her head with a mournful look on her face.Michael lowered his voice and said through gritted teeth, “It's Skyler. He can get rid of the Quirrel family quietly so he’s not someone to be messed with. So, you better wise up and don't mess with Jocelyn in the future, otherwise, I won't be able to save you!”Thinking of what happened just now at No. 1, North Court, L
Lynn's hands were clasped together tightly, and she could feel that the illegitimate child in her belly was dead.Her life was completely hopeless. She wanted revenge as this was the only motivation for her to live, and now she just wanted to kill those scumbags Lily and Chad.Unbeknownst to Lynn, the group of men went out of the alley and made a call.“Mr. Ziegler, we said all those things in front of the woman just as you instructed.”The man on the other side said something and the man on the phone immediately smiled.It was indeed Lily who asked them to gang rape Lynn.However, they did not expect that as soon as Lily finished the phone call with them, someone would approach them and give them business in vain.They just needed to say a few lines after they were done with that woman. It was so simple!At the same time, inside Turquoise Hall, the first-class private room in Jubilee Club.Yale walked in and whispered something in Skyler's ear. Then, Skyler's eyes lit up and
Jocelyn's expression stiffened. “I just figured that I don’t want to bother you, President Moore. I can handle the trivial matter of going to work myself.”Skyler looked at her with an unreadable expression. He took a step forward and sprayed her face with his breath, “Jocelyn, do you think I'm going to eat you?”Jocelyn was inexplicably nervous, and she leaned back slightly and unnoticeably.She did not know what Skyler meant, so she just laughed dryly, “President Moore, you’re funny.”Skyler stared at her and turned around to change his shoes. He did not even look at her. “If you don't want me to carry you into the car, you should be more aware.”Jocelyn frowned; Skyler's behavior was somewhat abnormal.‘Was he triggered by something?’Just as Jocelyn was wondering, she heard Skyler saying dryly, “Jocelyn, I'm not that scary and I won’t eat you, so you don't have to be so afraid of me!”Jocelyn was a little helpless. “I'm not afraid of you, I just always have your words in mi
Zayn sighed in exasperation. “The night before, a passerby sent Lynn to the hospital. It has been confirmed that she had been…gang-raped. She lost her child, but she isn’t willing to say anything regardless of what the police and doctors asked her. The next day, she was discharged when I headed to the hospital to visit her. I don’t know where she went to!” There was an extremely unpleasant expression on Jocelyn’s face. She had not interacted much with Lynn other than the time she customized jewelry for her. However, she could imagine what a disaster it would be for a woman to encounter something like that.She could tell that Zayn was very worried about Lynn. Jocelyn knew Zayn’s personality well. Although he was cold to most people, he had an extremely kind heart. He was born with a sympathetic heart, which was characteristic of a doctor. The Quirrel family had been exterminated after being split apart, and something like that had happened to Lynn. He must be extremely wor
Chapter 825Skyler then left.Marcel turned to Georgina, and Georgina immediately hunched her back in fear.Marcel shook his head resignedly. He couldn't believe Georgina would do such a nasty thing with Josie. If Georgina had not been his daughter, he would never have defended her.However, Georgina was his daughter. He was looking forward to Raina’s coming back one day, so the family could get back together!Marcel feared that if something happened to Georgina, Raina would not forgive him!...In the evening, Skyler and Jocelyn pack their stuff for their trip. They planned to take a vacation to an island the next day.Skyler was arranging Jocelyn's underwear and Jocelyn felt embarrassed. She got up from the couch and said, "I'll do it myself!"However, Skyler seated her back on the couch. "Stay here. I'll pack them for you!"Jocelyn blushed and complained, "I'm pregnant, not crippled. I can pack my stuff!"Skyler raised his eyebrows. "I know you can do this, but I want to
Chapter 824Jocelyn knew Skyler wasn't always as kind as he was in her face, but she didn't mind!...Before they went to the island for a trip, Skyler went to Marcel's house after work.As soon as Skyler got into Marcel's house, he saw that Marcel had a grave face.Skyler's eyes were cold. "Uncle Marcel, I suppose you should know why I'm here today!"Marcel looked at Skyler with guilt and nodded, "Yes, Georgina told me about it!"Skyler tried hard to get his rage under control, "I don't understand why Miss Sonnet would want to harm my wife. Miss Sonnet tricked my housekeeper away and gave the bad guys the opportunity to murder my wife!"Marcel had never felt so humiliated.He looked at Skyler with embarrassment. "It is Georgina's fault. I will teach her a lesson. Skyler, I know Georgina has gone too far, and I will punish her. But I hope you can give her a chance!"Skyler's eyes clouded over. "Can I have a word with Miss Sonnet?"After a few moments of silence, Marcel nodde
Chapter 823Abel laughed out loud, "Forget about it! You don't have feelings for me. I won't humiliate myself anymore!"Abel then stood up and stared at Jocelyn seriously. "I wish you and Skyler to be happy. He's really a good man!"Jocelyn smiled, "Thank you. I know that!"...When Skyler came back in the evening, Jocelyn told him that Abel had come earlier in the day.Skyler nodded as he hugged her, "I knew that!""We talked alone. Willa and Wilmer were not around!""I told them to leave you guys alone!""You don't mind me talking to Abel alone?""I used to mind it, but today I don't!""Why?""You've been in a bad mood lately. I hope talking to him can cheer you up! I want you to be happy!" Skyler said in a casual way. Jocelyn knew he meant it.Her eyes welled up with tears. She put her arms around Skyler's waist and buried her head in his chest. "Skyler, why are you so good to me!"Skyler stroked her hair and replied, "You're my wife. Of course, I'm good to you. I prom
Chapter 822Abel gave a bitter smile, "Don't worry. I heard what happened at your house!"Jocelyn showed a surprised look and asked, "How can you know what happened at our house?"The corner of Abel's mouth twitched and then he sighed resignedly and told Jocelyn everything that happened yesterday, and he also told her what happened between Skyler and him years ago.After hearing Abel's story, Jocelyn froze, a complicated look on her face. "So you actually wronged Skyler for all these years?"Abel felt sorry about that. He used to be good friends with Skyler!Abel nodded glumly, "Yeah, I was stupid. I blamed everything on Skyler before I found out the truth. I didn't expect Skyler would be the one to find out the truth in the end!"Jocelyn glanced at Abel and snorted, "You really were a fool for so many years!"Abel was speechless. He mentally spat, 'Did she need to laugh at me? I still felt awful when I learned that Josie was the one who caused my brother’s death.' But as he ha
Chapter 821Skyler froze. He didn't know what to say.He also loved Whitie and knew there was no other cat that could replace Whitie, but he couldn't let Jocelyn be overcome with grief forever!Especially now that she was pregnant!Skyler looked at Jocelyn with concern and took her into his arms. "Baby, don't drive me away. It's my fault. I shouldn't have said that. You were right. I just don't want you to be so sad, so I want to find another cat to cheer you up. Since you don't want another cat, I'll finish my work as soon as possible and take you on a trip. I'll stay with you, okay?"Skyler's voice was extremely soft. He tried to pacify Jocelyn.Jocelyn looked at him. "OK."Then after a moment of silence, she murmured, "Actually, you don't have to worry about me so much. I'm strong. I just feel sad! It feels like when my mom left me. Something was gone when they left me. But I have to move on eventually! I'll be fine in a few days!" Jocelyn was looking blankly into the air as
Chapter 820Dean had been dead for many years. Now Skyler learned the truth, but he didn't feel much too angry. He had mixed feelings in his heart.As Skyler was silent, Jake timidly asked, "Mr. Moore, can you let me go? I've told you everything I know."Skyler glanced at Jake and responded, "You're just Josie's pawn, but you're responsible for Dean's death. I've done enough to your men. I'm not going to do anything to you."Jake thought Skyler was going to let him go, and he rushed to thank Skyler. But Skyler ordered, "Jude, take him to Abel and tell Abel what happened. Then he'll be at Abel's disposal. Also, send more people abroad to find Josie!"Jude nodded and then took Jake out.Jake got really scared. He screamed, "Mr. Moore, you can't do this. I’ve told you everything. Can't you let me go?"Skyler cast an indifferent glance at him, without saying anything.He could let Jake go, but Abel should know how Dean died. Abel must still be angry about his brother's death, even
Chapter 819Skyler's eyes twinkled. He glanced at Jude and gestured for him to let go of Jake.Jake then rushed to the couch, got on his knees, and begged Skyler, "Mr. Moore, I did two things for Josie. And the other thing... involved a person's life. But it was all Josie's idea. If I tell you about it, will you let me go?"Skyler didn't say anything, his eyes stern.Did Josie make Jake kill someone? This woman was out of her mind! She had tried to hurt Jocelyn before, but accidentally got Renee killed. Skyler didn't expect she had some other crime.From Jake's tone, Skyler sensed that Josie was far more cruel than he thought.'She's such a vicious woman! I can't let her get away with this.'Skyler demanded, 'What is it? Tell me straight! I'll think about it!"Jake took a deep breath and continued, "Do you remember the car accident with Dean and his friend?"Skyler's eyes immediately narrowed. "Yes. What's about it?"Jake continued with a grave face, "Actually, the accident w
Chapter 818Jude was silent. After a few seconds, he shook his head, "I'm not sure. Jake has been in the Mauve city gang for years. He can't be trusted. But even if he doesn't tell the truth, I have a way to make him tell the truth!"Skyler leaned back on the couch, his expression grave. "OK. Someone must be behind Jake. I won't let any of them off the hook!"Jude nodded, "I'll bring Jake in!"When Jude entered the basement, Jake was standing next to Gary and Gale.Gary and Gale were awake at that moment. Seeing Jake, they groaned in pain, "Sir, did you come here to save us?"Just as Jake was about to answer them, Jude came down the stairs.Jake shivered with fear and he snapped, "What are you talking about?"Jude glanced at the two men lying on the floor like they were a pile of garbage. ‘These two guys tried to hurt Jocelyn, and there's no way Mr. Moore is going to let them go.'As for Jake...' Jude's eyes twinkled, 'It depends on whether he's smart or not.'Jude took Jake
Chapter 817Jake was stunned. In a trembling voice he asked, "Mr.…. Mr. Moore, what do you want?"Skyler cast a cold glance at him as if he were looking at an ant, and Jake felt a chill run down his spine.Skyler then nonchalantly said, "Gale tried to hit my wife with his elbow, so I got one of his arms chopped off. And Gary tried to beat my wife with a steel pipe, so I had five of his fingers cut off. They say cutting fingers hurts the most, but Gary is lucky and he's still alive. I was going to let him go. However, he kicked my cat to death, so I had to take his leg. But he's tougher than I thought. He's still alive! Jake, do you think I went too far considering what they did in my house?" Skyler said in a slow pace, but Jake was terrified.If Jude hadn't been holding on to the rope tied to Jake’s hand on his back, Jake might have collapsed to the floor.He turned to Skyler with a bitter smile and swallowed. "Mr.… Mr. Moore, what they did was outrageous! You should kill them! I
