The three of them turned at the same time and saw Abel looking at Jocelyn with a grin on his face.Davis saw Abel's grin and gave Jocelyn a worried look.Jocelyn pursed her lips slightly and whispered, "Davis, you and Lexie should go first, I'll say a few words to him.”Davis looked worried. “You can handle it by yourself, right?”Jocelyn was taken aback, then she immediately thought of what happened last night and shook her head. “Don't worry, he's not here to cause trouble for me.”She had interacted with Abel so many times, so Jocelyn had a general understanding of him.Abel was the kind of person who looked like a rascal, but in fact, he was kind and righteous in his bones. He belonged to the kind of person who was decent, but he was arrogant, so people were a little scared of him.Seeing that Jocelyn was so determined, Davis could only remind her, “Well, if anything happens, call me.”Jocelyn nodded. “Okay, Lexie doesn't come to such occasions very often, you can help me t
Jocelyn was about to say something when she saw Skyler getting out of the car, his expression was very cold and he walked straight into the villa without looking sideways, ignoring him and Abel directly.It suddenly occurred to Jocelyn that in the morning, Skyler called to say Jim had hosted a party and asked her if she wanted to go.Her expression changed. She did not expect it to be so coincidental that the party Skyler was talking about was actually the same party that Davis was talking about.She rejected Skyler righteously but came over with Davis. The more Jocelyn thought about it, the more awkward she felt.Jocelyn was still thinking about whether to find a time to explain it to Skyler in private when she heard Abel complaining, “I didn't expect Moore the Second to be here tonight. It’s such a small world. We can even be neighbors during parties.”Jocelyn did not care about his complaints. “Mr. Crain, if there's nothing else, I'll go first.”Abel grinned. “Don't go so quic
Skyler was trying to make the woman next to him go away, but he saw Jocelyn looking at him.Then, he instantly thought of the way she and Abel were standing together and talking. Therefore, he tensed his face, gave up what he wanted to say to drive the celebrity away, and leaned lazily on the sofa.Jocelyn saw this scene and stopped in her tracks immediately.She frowned slightly. ‘Is he planning to have a long talk with that celebrity?’She stared at Skyler, forgetting to look away for a while.Skyler also came here straight after getting off work, so he was wearing a tie and a suit.He looked into Jocelyn's eyes and the irritability in his heart subsided a little. He could not help reaching his hand out, loosening the tie around his neck, and revealing his sexy Adam's apple.Looking at his appearance, Jocelyn's eyes twinkled. For some reason, he thought of the word ‘poppy’. It was dangerous and deadly, but it made people want to get closer.Jocelyn pursed her lips. No matter
Just then, Lexie finally realized that she should not be discussing this topic in front of Davis. A regretful expression appeared on her face. On the other hand, Jocelyn did not mind. She took the initiative to explain things to Davis. “This is Walter’s fiancée. We met a few times while we were in university!”Davis’s gaze darkened when she mentioned Walter. He did not ask any more questions. However, he recalled another thing. “Jocelyn, we’ll be leaving for Greene City for the Ocean Heart Jewelry Competition, right?” Jocelyn nodded and said, “Yes, is there any problem with that?” Davis shook his head and said, “There isn’t much of a problem. However, I heard that Walter would be coming back on that day!” Jocelyn’s expression changed. Finally, she asked softly, “Really?”Davis immediately changed the topic and brought up something else when he noticed that Jocelyn was not in high spirits. Jocelyn did not look for Skyler from the beginning to the end of tonight’s gathe
Jocelyn’s eyes widened. She immediately started struggling against him with all her might when she came to her senses. Skyler finally managed to do as he wished. He was not clear-minded since he was feeling rather tipsy. He was extremely strong. He simply wanted to have Jocelyn in his arms and take everything that she had to offer.He pinned both of Jocelyn’s arms above her head with one hand and wrapped his other arm around her waist. He pressed her against the wall and stopped her from escaping. Jocelyn was so angered that her eyes turned red-rimmed. She could not go against him. Skyler exuded an oppressive air as he advanced on Jocelyn with a dominant stance. Jocelyn’s body softened as her face flushed red in anger. She could not stand it anymore. She bit Skyler’s lips harshly.Skyler instantly came to his senses. He was stunned. A hint of panic flashed across his gaze as he let go of Jocelyn. As soon as he loosened his grip on her, Jocelyn slapped him across his f
Giada extended her pointer finger and gestured for her father to keep quiet. “Father, keep it down!” She picked up Abel’s phone and realized that the screen was still lit up. The screen showed Abel’s chat with Jocelyn. Giada skimmed through the page rapidly and memorized all the key details. A cruel gaze flashed across her eyes. Just then, the sound of footsteps rang out from upstairs. She placed Abel’s phone back in its original position, turned around, and sat down while acting as if nothing had happened. Abel came downstairs and spoke in a cold tone, “Uncle, I’ll ask the servants to prepare some food if you feel like eating something. As for the collaboration, I’m sorry for not being able to do anything about it!”He would not work with his uncle anymore. It was time for Giada to learn a lesson! Shawson’s lips trembled slightly. In the end, he did not manage to say anything. Jocelyn’s flight was at noon on Friday. She arrived at the airport at 10 a.m. Yuni and Davis had
Jocelyn’s steps slowed down as the person before her walked closer, his handsome face growing clearer before him. Jocelyn found herself rooted to the spot. Although Jocelyn had not seen Walter in two years, she still recognized him at first sight. Walter was someone that was extremely familiar to her. Jocelyn suddenly reacted as Walter walked close to her. She turned around frantically and faced the wall as her body stiffened. After their separation two years ago, she had never expected to see him again in her lifetime. She caught sight of Walter passing by her from behind in the corner of her eye. Jocelyn immediately turned around and took large steps toward the lounge. It was as if someone was chasing her from behind. Walter took a few steps forward. He then seemed to sense something as he suddenly slowed down and turned around. He could not help but frown when he saw those frantic steps. The girl’s silhouette resembled Jocelyn. However, Jocelyn was not as tall as she w
Skyler Moore? Jocelyn’s emotions were beyond complicated. Was he one of the judges for the competition? She had not seen Skyler in almost a week. She suddenly recalled everything that had happened the last time they met when she caught sight of him. Some indescribable feelings rose to her mind. Davis was stunned when he saw Skyler as well. He had no idea that the Ocean Heart Jewelry Competition had invited Skyler to be one of their judges this time around. Yuni grabbed onto Davis’ arm in excitement. She exclaimed in a hushed tone, “It’s President Moore!” The other designers were beyond excited as well. Skyler stood out the most among all the middle-aged and old judges. He was the youngest judge, and he was extremely handsome as well. Jocelyn saw a few female designers looking at him with bedazzled gazes in their eyes.Skyler pretended not to notice any of the gazes directed at him. There was a calm and nonchalant expression on his face. He became the center of ev
