Davis rushed into the room with a panicked expression on his face. “Jocelyn, are you alright?” Yuni had just told him that Jocelyn was feeling unwell. He felt highly regretful. If it were not for his carelessness, this might not have happened to Jocelyn. Skyler was extremely dissatisfied with Davis. An unpleasant expression appeared on his face when he recalled that Jocelyn had had breakfast with him. He cast a dark look at Davis and spoke to him in an angered tone, “She would have lost her life if she waited for you to find out about it and send her to the hospital! Do you still think that she’s alright?!” Davis looked at Jocelyn with a guilty expression on his face. “I’m sorry, Jocelyn. I just found out about it!”Jocelyn shook her head and said, “It’s alright, this has nothing to do with you. I wasn’t careful!” Skyler felt extremely irked when he heard what Jocelyn said. He frowned and glanced at Jocelyn. He then huffed coldly, turned around, and walked outside. D
Davis frowned and said, “That isn’t a good idea. Jocelyn isn’t feeling well, and you want to visit a mall…” Yuni was slightly angered. “When we were at Mauve City, I was afraid that Fiona would go against me if I approached you. Now that we’re in Greene City, and yet you still can’t accompany me out. Didn’t you tell me that we’re best friends?”Yuni clearly knew that the relationship between her and Davis was rather ambiguous right now. She could cross the line and make requests that girlfriends would typically make in the name of friendship She was extremely patient. Once Davis confessed his feelings to her, both of them would be able to be together.They would soon get together. Davis was extremely tolerant toward her, and she basically thought of herself as his girlfriend. Yuni’s mind was filled with wonderful daydreams. However, Davis hesitated and rejected her request. “No, I can’t go to the mall with you when Jocelyn isn’t feeling well!”An irritated expression appeared
The doctor pushed open the door, took Jocelyn’s temperature, and asked about her physical condition. Then, he turned to face Skyler and said, “Mr. Moore, the patient is fine now and can be discharged now!”Skyler was stunned as it was so sudden. Even a calm and composed person like him could not think clearly. He thought about what he said to Jocelyn earlier and his expression suddenly became bad and his voice was stiff. “She hasn’t recovered yet so she can’t be discharged!”The doctor thought that he was a family member that was too worried about the patient so he explained. “Even though the patient almost went into shock, it’s just the body’s response to stress. As long as she recovers, it’ll be no big deal!”Skyler had more to say but Jocelyn interrupted him. “Mr. Moore, there are too many germs in the hospital. Even if my body was originally fine, I might contract other diseases! I think being discharged is better!”His face changed slightly when he heard Jocelyn put it tha
Jocelyn looked out the car’s window and her facial expression suddenly changed too. When she was talking to Skyler earlier, she did not notice that the car was driving further and further away and now they were at a deserted place with no idea where she was. All this happened in an instant. When Skyler shouted, not only did the car not stop, but instead, it drove even faster. Skyler’s expression immediately became dark. When he walked out of the hospital, he only recognized his car but did not pay attention to the driver. He thought that the driver was arranged by Greene City and did not realize that the driver had been switched! This was his first time making such a low-level mistake. He quickly got up and wanted to grab the man in the driver’s seat. However, the driver stepped on the pedal and violently rammed into the stone pillar on the side of the road. The car rocked violently as Skyler let go of his hand that was gripping the driver’s arm and immediately tu
The gangsters got control over the situation and attacked in an instant. All of a sudden, countless steel pipes fell on Skyler’s back which made him groan in pain. During the chaos, he was hit on the leg which caused him to stumble and land on the ground with one knee. Jocelyn’s eyes shot open and her expression drastically changed. “Stop it!”Not only did the gangsters ignore him but they began to hit him more viciously.The man sneered and said sarcastically in Jocelyn’s ear, “Yo, you’re still trying to help the pretty boy!”Jocelyn was so worried that she was full of tears and her voice was trembling. “Skyler, don’t worry about me. If you keep resisting, you’re going to get yourself killed!”Skyler was curled on the ground with his head between his arms. He laid there motionless and Jocelyn’s voice was hoarse from crying. The man finally blew off some anger so he waved his hand and said, “Tie him up! We’ll talk when we get to the location!”Skyler was wounded. He lifted
Jocelyn's body tensed up when she thought about what Skyler had said to her before about how being kind to the enemy is cruel to yourself. At that moment, she suddenly agreed with his words. A person like Giada simply did not deserve sympathy.Draco brought a knife in and handed it to Giada. Giada turned around and trod towards Jocelyn. After taking a step, Skyler's voice suddenly rang out, "Giada, have you had enough?"Giada dropped the knife in her hands and it fell to the ground. She turned around in disbelief and looked at the figure in the corner with shock as her voice shook. "Sky... Skyler!"Giada could not believe that the person she hired had actually kidnapped Skyler too. "Im... impossible, the one they kidnapped was supposed to be Davis!"She grabbed the flashlight from Draco's hands and shone it over. She then saw Skyler's indifferent face glaring coldly at her. Giada instantly panicked and turned to slap Draco across the face. "You idiot! I asked you to k
In the dark.Skyler fell over and collapsed onto Jocelyn’s body, the both of them colliding into the wall behind them. Jocelyn could hear Skyler’s groaning as he tried to hold back the pain.He used his body as a shield. The faint smell of mint filled Jocelyn’s nostrils as tears trickled down her face.Jocelyn was panicking. She did not know that she could sound this anxious. “Are you okay, Skyler? What’s the matter with you?”She did not know how deep the cut Giada made was and she could not stop her tears from flowing down her cheeks.Giada did not expect this to happen. The knife in her hand clattered to the ground in an instant.She was so shocked that her voice cracked. “Skyler!”She took a step back in panic, a sob rising in her throat. Her tone was hysterical and confused as she spoke, “No…it wasn’t me! I didn’t mean it! Why did you jump in front of her?”She did not understand why things had ended up this way. She liked him so much, yet she was the one who hurt him.Sk
Lexie glanced at Jocelyn. She sounded upset as she spoke. “Yes, he said that to me in front of Yuni Shaw.”Jocelyn’s expression fell. No wonder Lexie looked so sad.A situation like this would only embarrass Lexie further.She reached out and hugged Lexie tightly. She did not say a word.During the day, Jocelyn kept Lexie company.At night, she was notified that the results of the Ocean Heart Jewelry Competition would be announced at 10 a.m. the next day. A banquet would be specially held at May First Hotel, and all the participants and designers were invited.Jocelyn responded. She had just taken a shower and dried her hair, and she was sitting in the living room.At that moment, the room door suddenly swung open.Jocelyn looked up, her gaze meeting Skyler’s.The look in his eyes drew her in, and Jocelyn could not stop her heart from racing.She could feel that something had changed between them.After they were rescued yesterday, they did not have the chance for any proper
