Jocelyn thought that this tormenting day would come to an end after she got off work.As a result, two minutes before she got off work, Davis sent a message to the group chat of the trio.Davis: [@Lexie @Jocelyn, Yuni and I are officially together. We’re treating you two to dinner at Virtue Restaurant tonight.]One thing came after another.It was only now that Jocelyn remembered that Davis had not officially told her and Lexie that he was with Yuni.Lexie and her only knew because of Yuni’s provocation.Lexie had not gotten over the pain and she had to face the love birds.Jocelyn was very upset!Davis was stabbing a knife into Lexie’s heart.However, Davis did not know that Lexie liked him, so what fault did he have?At that moment, Jocelyn felt troubled.She was thinking about how to refuse when she saw Lexie accepting the invitation.Lexie: [No problem, Davis. Just tell us the location and I’ll go with Jocelyn. However, I also have an appointment with a friend at night,
She was so enthusiastic.Jim was back to his old habits again, so he curled his lips and asked, “Miss, do you know me?”Yuni hurriedly introduced herself with a smile, “My name is Yuni, I’m Davis’...”She smiled shyly. “Good friend.”Davis frowned and said nothing.Jocelyn could not help but sneer. She did not show Yuni any respect when she said, “A good friend whom you slept with?”She did not believe that Yuni had no idea why Davis invited her and Lexie to dinner today. Yet, she still claimed to be good friends with Davis. How extremely disgusting.When Jocelyn recalled how Yuni’s eyes lit up like a dog seeing a bone as soon as she saw Jim, she felt extremely depressed. Davis was so blind!As soon as Jocelyn said that, Yuni's face turned ashen.Jim laughed.Davis was startled and he looked at Jocelyn in surprise.Only then did he realize that Jocelyn seemed to hate Yuni.However, he was not very happy with what Yuni just said either.Lexie looked past them with a nonchal
Jocelyn did not know what Rhode was trying to do, so she did not say a word.Rhode's face contorted slightly for a moment. She had already said this, but Jocelyn did not even ask her what she meant.She cleared her throat. “Miss White, do you want to go to say hi to President Moore? He came with me!”Jocelyn instantly removed her hands under the dryer.She turned and looked at Rhode with an unpleasant expression. “You're dating President Moore?”Rhode just wanted to show off to Jocelyn, she did not expect Jocelyn to have such a huge reaction.She blinked innocently. “What's wrong? Is there any problem?”Jocelyn stared at Rhode for a few seconds before shaking her head. “Not at all. I’ll leave now.”After she said that, she turned around and walked out of the restroom.She told herself in her heart that Rhode must be trying to show off. Before this, she came to make custom jewelry and deliberately showed off in front of her while saying those specious statements as if there was
However, only Rhode knew that was not the truth. She was warned by Skyler when she went to Prosperity that day.Yet, despite that, she could not tell anyone there was nothing between her and Skyler.More importantly, she heard that Prosperity was going to replace their spokesperson today.She was so excited.She walked up to Skyler with a glass of wine, a lovely twinkle in her eyes. Then, she bit her lip lightly, “President Moore.”Skyler did not even look at her. He was staring at the wine glass in front of him with a cold expression.Tonight, Mr. Lawrence asked him to invest in a new drama. He originally had this intention, so he came to this dinner.Unexpectedly, Mr. Lawrence and the producer actually brought Rhode along in order to please him.Skyler knew what kind of wishful thinking they had in their minds.However, it was because he knew that he was a little angry.He was afraid that Jocelyn would misunderstand so he was already keeping his distance from Rhode. Unexpec
Rhode was so frightened that her soul had left her body. Then, she fell directly into Skyler's arms.Skyler frowned, an unpleasant expression on his face. Despite his ruthless means, he could not stand idly by and watch someone get hit by a car in front of him.The car hit the stone pillar in front of Virtue Restaurant and half of the car was dented. The driver's forehead was on the steering wheel and his head was covered in blood.Skyler released Rhode. “Stand properly.”Rhode's body was weak, and she stumbled. Then, she hurriedly held the wall next to her to support herself.Skyler called Yale with a cold face. “I got into an accident at the Virtue Restaurant. You should check as soon as possible to see whether it was an accident, or someone did this on purpose.”Yale's voice was serious. “Okay, I'll check right away.”Skyler hung up the phone and glanced at Rhode on the side. “Rhode, I’m warning you again, if you don't want to be shut out, stay away from me in the future.”R
After she finished speaking, she got up and left.Skyler was stunned.However, he could not just let Jocelyn go like this.His relationship with Jocelyn just turned for the better. If there was another conflict, they would be engaged in a cold war again.He grabbed Jocelyn's arm. “No, you have to make yourself clear!”Jocelyn got angry. Her eyes were a little red and she tried to shake Skyler's hand away.Skyler did not expect Jocelyn to be serious.His expression changed slightly. He grabbed Jocelyn and pressed her directly on the sofa, his face domineering and helpless. “What the hell are you doing?”Jocelyn's indifference was suffocating. “I don't want to talk to you!”Skyler frowned at her.He suddenly thought of Jim's words. There was no conflict between men and women that could not be resolved by a kiss, if a kiss could not resolve it, then two kisses!Of course, Jim also said that a kiss could be replaced by a one-night… then it would be even more effective.Skyler's
Jim shook his head helplessly. “Tell me, what's wrong with you? Who provoked you?”In fact, Jim was just asking that. He did not need to think to know that it was Jocelyn.He could not think of anyone else who would dare to make someone like Skyler so angry.Skyler glanced at Jim and could not hold himself back. “You know what? She said I was disgusting. I've never met a woman who’s unable to recognize others' good intentions like her!”Jim was overjoyed and he burst into laughter. “Tsk, how should I say this, there is a saying that men are cheap. The easier it is for them to get someone, the less they will cherish them. Jocelyn doesn't take you seriously and she flies into a rage whenever she wants and yet you’re all over her.”Skyler looked at him coolly. “Jim, who are you calling cheap?”Jim's expression changed and he immediately pointed at himself. “I am, I am. Even my nickname is Cheap Jim.”He did not want to talk back to Skyler and fight him when Skyler was still mad, ot
As soon as Skyler entered the office, he threw his coat on the sofa and walked toward the desk.He came to work directly from the hotel today.This woman, Jocelyn, dared to call him disgusting. No matter what, this time, he would not easily forgive her, let alone bow his head to her.Skyler was thinking about this when Yale knocked on the door and came in.“President Moore, I have clues about what happened last night, but the person behind it has not been found out. The driver was a death row prisoner and he died before arriving at the hospital last night. The car had fake plates. This person just escaped from prison some time ago and as for why he hit you with his car, we have no idea. It’s because after he got out of prison, he didn't contact anyone around him,” Yale told Skyler the truth.Skyler's face sank instantly.There was no need to guess now, the other party hired this person to kill him.His voice was terrifyingly icy, “Continue to check the interpersonal relationship
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
