Jocelyn looked at the message she typed out hesitantly, thinking about whether to revise it again so that it sounded more euphemistic.As a result, as soon as she entered the design department, she heard the heated discussions among everyone.Jocelyn listened carefully and then understood the cause and effect of the matter.It turned out that this morning, Dan was crippled by someone and got sent to the door of the police station covered in blood.The man who left him there was said to be a fisherman who was fishing by the sea and then he picked up Dan from the beach.He was tortured until he barely looked human, but there was a confession beside him with stated the bad things he had done over the years, and the evidence was even packed and kept beside him in a waterproof bag.The fisherman was kind-hearted. When he saw that this man had done so many evil things, he took him directly to the door of the police station.Dan's case was well-documented, and together with his confess
Walter was very saddened by Jocelyn's rejection this time, and he asked, “What's the matter?”Jocelyn frowned and said in a heavy voice, “I made an appointment with my boyfriend to go to dinner together, I don't want to stand him up.”Walter's voice sounded complicated, “I heard that you broke up with Howard.”Jocelyn nodded. “Yeah.”Walter's tone was a little sad. “It hasn’t been long since you broke up. Did you find a new boyfriend in such a short time?”Jocelyn really did not know what Walter wanted to do.However, she was still grateful for his care in the past few years.She thought about it and said, “Walt, you can’t stop fate and you should understand that. If there is nothing else, I will go to work first.”After Jocelyn finished speaking, she hung up the phone directly.Jocelyn thought that during this dinner, she and Skyler would be the only ones there and they would talk about their divorce.As a result, when she arrived at Virtue Restaurant, she realized that she
Skyler looked at Jocelyn calmly. Then, he said slowly, “Back then in the bar, you were bullied by Dan because Yvonne stirred up the trouble and encouraged Dan to do this.”Jocelyn's face changed suddenly when she heard this.No wonder Skyler wanted to apologize to her today. He probably knew that it was Abel who saved her at the time and understood why she would stand up to Abel.Her expression was a little complicated.It had been so long, and she finally knew that this was the truth.She looked at Yvonne and her expression suddenly became disgusted. She was looking at Yvonne even more hatefully than when she looked at Giada.When she recalled the scene that night in the private room where she was surrounded by Dan and a group of people and did not have any aid, she wanted to kill Yvonne and feed her body to dogs!She said indifferently, “Mr. Moore, I will listen to you in this matter. I have no opinion on what you want to do with her.”Jocelyn clearly remembered that because
Skyler said lightly, “He’s asking you, why are you looking at me?”The reason why he called Derek for this meal was that he knew that Jim would definitely intercede. He wanted to let Derek know that Jim had paid him back for his life-saving grace.Jocelyn was a little helpless. “I want to listen to you about what happened, but Mr. Rand has said that, and he is also your friend. I am also in a dilemma, Mr. Moore, I think... You should know.”Skyler glanced up at Jim. “What? You think you won’t be able to get through me so you’re asking Jocelyn to intercede?”Jim smiled. “No way, I was just thinking that I owe Jocelyn a huge debt this time!”Skyler sneered, “Just don't let me see her in the future, otherwise, I will never forgive her.”Derek nodded hurriedly. “Thank you, Mr. Moore, thank you, Miss White, thank you, Jim! Tomorrow, I'll… No, tonight! I'll take her abroad tonight and never come back!”After hearing Derek's words, Jim added, “I'll send someone to keep an eye on them.”
Skyler was a little unhappy. “What? Do I embarrass you? He helped my wife, and I can’t thank him?”Seeing that Skyler was taking this too personally, Jocelyn could not help but tactfully said, “No, that’s not it. I’ve already paid back Abel’s favor. So this matter has already ended.”Skyler snorted softly and frowned in displeasure. “Alright, I’ll just believe you.”Jocelyn was having mixed feelings. She could sensitively feel that Skyler was not the same as before.He never used to say things like ‘You are my wife’ or ‘I’ll just believe you’. Not only did he respect her thoughts, but he also took the initiative to apologize to her!However, she genuinely was not used to this.This was no better than when he was always cold to her and would always separate their affairs clearly.Jocelyn was a little flustered when she was looking at Skyler like this.Skyler seemed to notice her uneasiness and he frowned. “Jocelyn, you can treat me as a friend in the future.”Skyler was daydrea
Jocelyn said, “Mr. Moore, I swear to God that I really didn’t do that!” Skyler loosened his grip on Jocelyn’s hand at once.There was a tired expression on his face. “Do you dislike me that much?”“...” Jocelyn was speechless. How could she reply to this question? If she told him that she did not dislike him, that meant that she had ulterior motives toward him!Skyler’s expression wilted when he noticed that Jocelyn was not saying anything. “Never mind, you should head upstairs first!” When Jim received Skyler’s call, his men had just told him that Derek and Yvonne had been escorted onto the plane. Skyler relayed his conversation with Jocelyn to Jim once. “Do you think she really can’t tell that I have feelings for her?” Jim laughed mockingly and said, “You deserve all of this. Why did you call me a fool during the gathering? You’ve received karma now, right?” Skyler was speechless. “Can you speak properly?” Naturally, Jim knew that Skyler had purposely made things
Jocelyn pursed her lips tightly. If she rejected Walter again, this would be the third time she did so! She thought about it for a while. Finally, she agreed to his request in an exasperated manner. “Alright, where at? Send me the location!” Walter finally let out a sigh of relief. “Come to Tingo Restaurant. I’m over here right now. I remember that you liked having the pasta over there in the past!” Tingo Restaurant was a Western restaurant. When they were in university, Jocelyn and Walter often ate there. Back then, Jocelyn thought that although they had not confessed their feelings to each other, they looked like a couple in a relationship. After that, Snow’s appearance shattered all her naive assumptions and turned her hopes into nothing. She nodded and said, “Alright, I’ll be there!” After hanging up on the call, Jocelyn headed to Tingo Restaurant. Lexie left the house as well. Ever since she showed off her skills in the gaming company that day, Jim had been c
There was a complicated expression on Jocelyn’s face. However, she hesitantly said, “Walt, we’re just friends!” There was a look of disappointment on Walter’s face. When he noticed the serious expression on Jocelyn’s face, he felt slightly exasperated. “Alright, alright, we’re just friends! I’m hungry. I’m afraid that I won’t be full enough if I order a single set meal!” Jocelyn nodded and remained silent. She had expressed her stance extremely clearly.Walter understood her well. He stopped trying to make it seem like they had a close relationship and took the initiative to bring up some topics that Jocelyn was interested in. Both of them chatted happily. If they disregarded the incident that happened two years ago, the both of them could still get along like a close senior and junior that had not seen each other for the past two years. Meanwhile, Skyler had prepared a table full of dishes at home. However, he did not have an appetite at all. He sat down on the sofa and
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
