Jim was rather stunned. His almond-shaped eyes widened as he asked, “That can’t be. You like her and would like to pursue her, but you aren’t willing to confess to her? Dude, what in the world are you trying to do?” A regretful expression appeared on Skyler’s cold and elegant face. He added, “Previously, I told her not to harbor any ulterior motives toward me. I can still come up with an excuse to give her presents and eat with her without explaining things to her. If I confess to her straight away, won’t I be a hypocrite?” Jim looked at Skyler with an irritated expression on his face. “How can you make her fall for you if you don’t want to lose your composure?” Skyler did not say anything as he silently admitted to everything. Jim stared at him with a complicated gaze in his eyes. “Speaking of which, this is the first time you went against your own words. You said that you’ll just get married without falling in love. However, you fell in love after getting married. You aren’
Jocelyn’s face stiffened as she called out, “Miss Sonnet!” Snow Sonnet turned around and leaned against the basin. She cast a languid gaze at Jocelyn and said, “You’re really refusing to leave my side! Walter and I ran into you when we just returned to the country. Can you not live without men by your side?” There was an awkward expression on Jocelyn’s face. She straightened herself stiffly and looked at Snow. “Pay more attention to what you say!” Snow raised her freshly-manicured nails on one hand and caressed the gems on her nails with her other hand. She laughed nonchalantly. “Pay attention… What should I pay attention to?” She paused and stared straight at Jocelyn. She spoke in a sarcastic tone, “To be honest with you, if I were to pay attention to something, I should be cautiously watching you to prevent you from seducing my fiancé instead!” Jocelyn’s pupils constricted as an unpleasant expression appeared across her face. “Miss Sonnet, I have a boyfriend. I hope that you
Walter laughed as his expression softened. He smiled and said, “All of a sudden, I didn’t feel like going to the washroom anymore.” “Hohoho…. That’s interesting bladder control!” “Hahaha… Did you control your urge to go to the toilet after seeing a pretty girl?” All of them teased Walter. Walter simply smiled without saying anything. Jordan clearly knew that Walter had gone out just to look for Jocelyn. He cast an ambiguous smile at Walter. Everyone chatted for a while. Walter’s phone rang when Jordan suggested that they should play a game of truth or dare.Everyone exclaimed out loud and called him a busy man. As soon as Walter left, Jordan tried to speak up again. However, Jocelyn’s phone rang as soon as she spoke up. Jordan was amused. “Jocelyn, are you and Walter here to cause trouble for me?” Jocelyn smiled in exasperation when she noticed that Skyler was calling her. “No, my boyfriend is here to fetch me!” Jordan’s smile faltered slightly. “I see!
Snow felt somewhat awkward. Filled with rage, she spoke up emotionally, “She’s not that weak! She isn’t made of glass!” Walter’s expression turned icy. “Snow Sonnet!” Snow immediately made a gesture with her hands. “Okay, okay! I’ll listen to you. I’ll avoid her as best as I can in the future!” She was confident that Jocelyn would not tell Walter about what she had told her just now. In her eyes, Jocelyn White was a fragile girl that valued her own dignity. She was not a match for her! Walter glanced at her, turned around, and left with a heavy expression on his face! When Walter returned to the event hall, he realized that Jocelyn had already left. Jordan glanced at him in annoyance. “Where did you go? You didn’t pick up your phone either. I’ve been looking for you outside for such a long time!” Walter said expressionlessly, “Something came up!” One of the juniors had a starry gaze in her eyes. “Senior, Jocelyn’s boyfriend is extremely handsome! He has an exc
“Is that so? Invite her out one day so that we can have a meal together. Anyways, I’ll be staying in Mauve City in the future!” Skyler glanced at Jocelyn, who was daydreaming with her head tilted to the side. He nodded and said, “Yes, sure!” They arrived home at night. Jocelyn took a shower and lay down on her bed. She turned around on her bed, but she could not fall asleep. She thought of how Walter treated her. It was as if nothing had changed from two years ago. She felt rather upset. Initially, she thought that she would be extremely nervous tonight. However, after seeing Walter, she suddenly realized that she had already put down her bitter crush on him after knowing that he had a fiancée back then.However, she still could not treat Walter like an ordinary friend. Walter was not just someone that she had once had a crush on. Disregarding the crush, Walter was still like family to her. Michael had been giving her a difficult time back then. She got bullied eve
Skyler’s gaze darkened. He knew that this was probably Jocelyn’s voice recording. He could vaguely guess what had happened as well.When Jocelyn woke up, the car was parked in the underground car park. Her voice was rather languid as she spoke in a dazed tone, “Have we arrived?” Skyler leaned back against the driver’s seat and stared at the steering wheel expressionlessly. It was unclear what he was thinking about.Since he was silent, Jocelyn spoke up, “Since we’ve arrived, I’ll head upstairs first. Thank you for sending me to work, President Moore!” Jocelyn opened the car door while speaking.Skyler suddenly looked at Jocelyn. “Wait!” Jocelyn looked at him in confusion and asked, “Huh?” Skyler stared at Jocelyn’s delicate face with a complicated expression on his face. “I want you to hear something!” There was a curious look on Jocelyn’s face. “What’s that?” Skyler clicked on the audio play button, and the recording that he had heard just now repeated once again.
There was a look of shock on Jocleyn’s face. “How is that possible? When did this happen? Does Yuni not care about the audio recording that I have?” Lexie cried desperately. Jocelyn had never seen her so upset before. She looked at Jocelyn and started crying even harder. “Why does she have to care about that? They’re already together. If I tell Davis then I like him right now, do you think they will break up? I’ll just be putting myself in a more difficult position. Yuni must have guessed that this would happen!” Lexie hugged Jocelyn and cried out loud, “Jocelyn, what should I do? I’ve liked him for almost seven years. It’s been seven years. How can I let go of him? I can still comfort myself when he didn’t have a girlfriend back then. I can’t even comfort myself right now. Am I way too weak? Am I being a coward for not daring to confess my feelings to him? Is that why someone else got together with him first? I’m such a fool, right?”This news was way too sudden. Lexie cried
Jocelyn raised her eyebrow. Suddenly, she understood where this person’s relentless courage came from. On closer look, this profile picture and display name really matched Skyler’s characteristic style. She accepted his follow request at once. She then followed his account as well. She had just accepted his request when Skyler sent her a message on Instagram. He sent over a smiling emoji. Jocelyn was rather speechless. Jocelyn: [President Moore, are you mocking me?] Skyler: [Since when have I mocked you?] Jocelyn: [President Moore, are you an alien? The smiling emoji that you sent over is usually used when one is being sarcastic. Do you get it?] Skyler: [...I didn’t know that!] Jocelyn: [I get it. After all, you just found out about the internet recently!] In the president’s office, Skyler could not help but burst out into laughter after reading this text. Suddenly, he realized that Jocelyn was a little… different from usual when she was online. She was quit
