Skyler felt even more frustrated when he thought about his behavior today. When Skyler returned to Villa No. 1, he did not feel like going in when he thought about how empty the house was. He started smoking in the car alone. He smoked a few cigarettes. Finally, he put out the last cigarette once he got a headache. He then got down from the car. Initially, Skyler thought that Jocelyn was not back yet. He assumed that she had gone somewhere else on a date with that mysterious man.However, as soon as he opened the door, he saw Jocelyn’s shoes by the door. His expression changed as he took large strides into the house without even taking off his shoes. He saw Jocelyn sitting in the dining room at first sight. She was eating the dinner that he had prepared. Skyler looked at Jocelyn. A complicated expression appeared on his face. Jocelyn raised her head to glance at him after hearing the noise. “Mr. Moore, you’re back! I didn’t know that you knew how to cook!”Skyler did no
Skyler had never expected things to take such a turn. A surprised expression appeared on his face momentarily. Jocelyn spoke to him in an angered tone, “I don’t know who said such nonsense about me in front of you and made you think about me that way, but let me tell you this. I, Jocelyn White, have not done anything to wrong you. On the other hand, you have been having an ambiguous relationship with Rhode Ginn. The scandal between both of you has spread everywhere. Did I ever say anything about it? “What gives you the right to accuse me like that? We’re married, and I should keep my distance from other men. I don’t have anything to say about this. However, I shouldn’t be the only one being restricted by our marriage certificate. Skyler Moore, although I’m a nobody, I have feelings too. Don’t go overboard!” This was the first time Jocelyn had spoken like that to Skyler. Skyler was stunned. Suddenly, he felt that he was at a loss for words. An awkward expression formed on his f
Skyler: [Is it too late if I start trusting her now?] Jim: [Don’t be so full of yourself. If you see her hugging another man the next time, what will you think?] Skyler: […]Jim: [I knew that you were just all talk and no action. Why didn’t you think that person could’ve been her biological father or someone like that? Didn’t you say that Michael White isn’t Jocelyn’s biological father? There are many possibilities. Don’t be so narrow-minded and jump to conclusions straight away!]Skyler: [I got it! Should I still bring Rhode to tonight’s business gala?] Jim was the one who had suggested for Skyler to do so. He had asked Skyler to bring Rhode to the gala to make Jocelyn jealous!Jim: [Why would you bring her there? You must bring Jocelyn White along. If you bring Rhode over to the gala today, you should just cut ties with Jocelyn at once! Jocelyn’s thoughts are beyond clear after everything that happened last night!] Jim: [She’s angry at you because of your double standards
Skyler’s handsome face darkened. Skyler: [Can you not be so happy when I’m facing trouble? Can you give me some constructive suggestions?] Jim: [Alright, alright, I’ll try my best. I don’t have any good suggestions either. However, you must resolve this situation as soon as possible. Regardless of everything, you must think of an idea to bring her to tonight’s business gala. She can’t keep ignoring you!] Skyler: [Do you have any good ideas?] Jim: [Think about it yourself. Humans always come up with good ideas. You understand Jocelyn better than I do. The ideas that you come up with will definitely work better than what I come up with!] Skyler did not bother Jim anymore. He pondered upon it for some time. Finally, he opened his text messages. If he could not send her messages on Instagram, he could still text her! Although that was what Skyler planned to do, he still felt rather anxious. He was afraid that Jocelyn had really blocked his number! “Jocelyn, I’ll t
Skyler and Jocelyn arrived at the business gala right on the dot. Jocelyn followed Skyler into a large hall. Countless gazes landed on them. Jocelyn was not used to the feeling of being the center of attention.She followed Skyler around for a while. She then suggested, “Mr. Moore, I’m a little tired from walking around in heels. Can I rest somewhere?” Skyler hummed affirmatively and helped her to a quiet corner. There were not many people seated on the sofas in this corner.As soon as Jocelyn sat down, one of Skyler’s business partners eagerly dragged him over for a chat.Jocelyn sat down on a sofa quietly. She took out her phone and glanced at it. Suddenly, a sharp and mean voice rang out. “So you’re Jocelyn White?”Jocelyn raised her gaze. She recognized her at first sight. Although she had never seen this woman before in real life, this woman was a famous celebrity. She was extremely popular right now. Most people knew who she was. Nevertheless, it was normal fo
Ilona immediately turned around after hearing Skyler’s voice. She stammered slightly, “President… President Moore!” Skyler cast an icy gaze upon her. It was as if he were looking at a condemned person. Ilona’s heart froze under his gaze. Skyler’s voice was terrifyingly cold. “Ilona Yates, be cautious of what you say. You should know what to say and what not to say!” Ilona’s face paled as she said, “I… I was just joking with Miss White just now!” Skyler huffed coldly and ignored her. He then told Jocelyn, “Come on, I’ll introduce you to some of my business partners within the jewelry industry!” Jocelyn nodded and left while holding onto Skyler’s arm.Skyler’s voice was rather stiff. “What did she tell you just now?” He was afraid that Jocelyn would be infuriated when he heard Ilona mentioning the words “replacement” and “Josie”. After all, Jocelyn had just thrown a tantrum at him after he misunderstood her last night.However, Jocelyn’s reaction differed from hi
Skyler scoffed. “Mimi’s temper is much worse than yours!” Wayne let out a dry laugh. Skyler glanced at Jocelyn and said, “Aren’t you curious who spread rumors about you behind my back yesterday? It was the man in front of you!” Wayne did not expect this to happen. His expression stiffened at once. Jocelyn frowned. “Did you see me yesterday, Mr. Zimmer?” An unnatural expression appeared on Wayne’s face. “Yes, I had dinner at Tingo Restaurant with my friend last night!” Jocelyn recalled what Skyler had told her last night. The tone of her voice instantly turned unpleasant. “I hope that you can verify the truth of your words before speaking in the future and take responsibility for what you say! Don’t spout nonsense after seeing something!” An unpleasant expression appeared on Wayne’s face. Jocelyn was just a mere jewelry designer. What gave her the right to talk to him like that? However, Skyler was in a better mood after hearing what Jocelyn said. He raised hi
Jocelyn's eyes widened in shock as she reached her arms out to push him away. However, her strength was no match for Skyler. Her behavior inflamed Skyler's desire and he felt that he was crazy and completely ignored her little actions. He grabbed her slender waist tightly and kissed her fiercely. Jocelyn's body was getting increasingly relaxed and the words Skyler said suddenly flashed in her mind, ‘I would not mind if you gave your heart to me.’ It was as if she was hypnotized and did not reject Skyler as much. Her breathing was hot and fast and her brain was foggy as her eyes turned red.Skyler's feelings were moved when he saw how her eyes were red and how she was being soft and sweet. He suddenly got the impulse to grab Jocelyn and carried her upstairs.Jocelyn's body relaxed and her foggy brain suddenly cleared up. She struggled vigorously this time and shouted Skyler's name, "Skyler Moore!"Skyler was stunned and stopped in the middle of the stairs. There was a
