Zayn stared at Skyler. There was a hostile gaze in his eyes. Jocelyn felt rather exasperated. Zayn was obviously just worried about her. She was afraid that Zayn would say something inappropriate in front of Skyler. She immediately explained things to him. “Director Claude! Mr. Moore purposely came over to visit me after he found out that I got into a car accident!” After speaking, she explained things to Skyler again. “Director Claude found out that I got into a car accident. He used his authority to help me receive a full body examination in advance!” Skyler looked at Zayn expressionlessly after hearing what she said. He spoke in a lukewarm tone, “Thank you, Director Claude!” Zayn, who was always calm and gentle, had a dark expression on his face. “Jocelyn got into a car accident because of Lily White!” Skyler seemed to sense something strange as well. He took one step ahead and stood in front of Jocelyn instinctively. “Is that so? If that’s the case, this doesn’t ha
Jocelyn’s heart lurched. She then spoke up and started stammering, “Mr.… Moore!”She looked at Skyler’s icy but handsome face fearfully. She was extremely anxious. Skyler walked down the staircase step by step with a calm expression on his face. “Why aren’t you sleeping?” Jocelyn wanted to ask him about the accident, but she did not have the courage to ask him about it directly. She tried to start the conversation with another topic. “Mr. Moore, you asked me to meet you at Jubilee Club in the evening. May I know if anything happened?”Skyler did not look at Jocelyn. He walked over in his sleeping robes and sat down on the sofa. Whitie no longer feared him after receiving plenty of cuddles from him in the past two days. After seeing Skyler walk over, White raised its eyes to look at him lazily. It did not run away from him. Skyler took Whitie into his arms and looked at Jocelyn. “That’s not what you wanted to ask, right?”After seeing Zayn’s attitude toward him today, he g
Jocelyn had a feeling that if she were she say that she sympathized, Skyler would come forward and pinch her. She shook her head with a dazed look. “No, I did sympathize with her before but, that was because I didn’t know that she was willing to let people die for her own selfish desires. After knowing how malicious she was towards me, my only regret is that I sympathized with someone like her!”A light flashed in Skyler’s eyes and he snorted softly. “You’re so dumb!”Jocelyn glared at Skyler with a frown. “Then why are you doing this? The one they’re after is me and it has nothing to do with you!”Skyler's expression turned sour. “Jocelyn, did you forget who you are?”Jocelyn pouted. “So, you’re doing this because of me?”Words could not describe the complicated feelings in Jocelyn’s heart. Skyler was rather hypocritical since he had a soft expression yet his words were harsh. “You’re overthinking it. As long as I’m accountable for you, I wouldn’t let anyone do something like
Jocelyn looked at Skyler in disbelief and her expression unchanging. “Skyler… I…” She wanted to apologize and thank him but did not know how to say it at that moment. She stayed silent for a while before finally asking a brainless question, “Didn’t Michael say that the letter is a fake?” As soon as she said it, Jocelyn wanted to hit herself. Why did she not know what was the right thing to say! Now she finally understood why Skyler was not curious at all when he heard the servant tell him that Lily had threatened her with the letter. He had already known about it! Skyler looked at her mockingly. “At this point, don’t tell me that you don’t know that it was me that made him say that!” Jocelyn bit her lip. “Mr. Moore, I’m sorry. Thank you!” Skyler knew what she meant by that. She was sorry for misunderstanding him and thanked him for retrieving the letter. He snorted coldly. “You don’t have to say anything, I don’t need your thanks either! Initially, I was hesi
The atmosphere was very awkward for a while. The family doctor was a bit embarrassed. “Mr. Moore, Miss White said that you were clawed by a cat and she invited me over to give you the vaccine for rabies and a tetanus shot!” Skyler’s expression was incredibly foul. “It won’t kill me!” Jocelyn pursed her lips helplessly and struggled to understand Skyler’s awkward personality. He was not actually as cold as he appeared yet he insisted on making himself unapproachable. The family doctor laughed. “Mr. Moore, under normal circumstances, it’s true that it won’t kill you since the possibility of getting rabies after being injured by a cat or dog is very slim but who would know if they’ve been infected? The injection is just a prevention method!” Skyler’s expression was so upset. “Come in!” Skyler sat on the study’s sofa and the doctor quickly took out the antiseptic solution to help him clean the wound. Jocelyn quiet stood at the side as the doctor gave Skyler the shot and
Yuni had yet to notice Jocelyn walking over. Her eyes flashed as she said to Davis with a small smile, “Director Lang, since I can’t bring breakfast for you anymore, then can we go get breakfast together in the future?” Davis was stunned for a moment before smiling and nodding. “Sure!” Jocelyn was furious when she heard his response. They just agreed to have breakfast together in the future just like that? Yuni had the freedom to pursue Davis but she should not take advantage of Lexie’s loving breakfast that she put in a lot of effort for. Jocelyn was so angry. Davis had never been in a relationship so he had no experience in this aspect whilst Yuni looked like the type of woman who could manipulate a man’s mind. It was said that it was easy for girls to pursue guys so if this went on, would Lexie still have hope? As Jocelyn was pondering, she suddenly heard Yuni’s greeting. “Miss White, good morning!” Jocelyn could feel the insincerity when she looked at the smile o
Davis hesitated for a moment but still ended up speaking truthfully, “The company has decided to have you and Yuni attend the competition together. You have any thoughts about this?”Jocelyn pursed her lips. Did Davis think that she had quite an opinion about Yuni?She felt a little helpless internally. “Since it’s the company’s decision, I have nothing to say about it!”Davis could tell that there was still something weighing on Jocelyn.Since Jocelyn was unwilling to voice them, however, he did not pry. Jocelyn left Davis’s office. She had forgotten about meeting Skyler because of that matter with Davis and Yuni.During lunch, Jocelyn kept staring at Lexie. She wanted to say something but kept stalling. Lexie could not stand it any longer and her cold little face was taut. "Jocelyn, what is it you want to say? Don't keep staring at me. I can't even eat!"Jocelyn pursed her lips. "Lexie, I mentioned before that you should find a time to explain your intentions to Davis. Have
The sound of Jocelyn opening the door startled the individuals in the office.Both pairs of eyes turned to look at her simultaneously.There was a faint change in Jocelyn’s expression, she could mistake the person kneeling on the ground. It was Michael.Seeing clearly that the visitor was Jocelyn, Michael was about to stand up, but then he noticed Skyler’s cold and dark gaze. He gritted his teeth. He did not get up, his head bowed.Jocelyn's expression shifted again and again. She walked in and immediately closed the door.While she did not know what was going on, it was obvious that she was somewhat involved in this matter with Michael.Skyler looked at Jocelyn as if he saw no other person in the office. His expression was indifferent. "What are you doing here?"Jocelyn looked at Skyler and then at Michael, who was kneeling on the ground. Without answering Skyler's question, she asked, "What’s this about?"Skyler's gaze darkened. “It’s exactly as it looks!”Jocelyn's eyes fla
