Walter finally let out a sigh of relief. “Thank you, doctor.” Mimi turned at him and said, “Get the hospitalization procedures done. I’ll stay with her!” Walter nodded. Jocelyn did not remain unconscious for long. She woke up not long after she got sent out of the emergency room.She opened her eyes and saw Mimi, who was sitting beside her bed and playing with her phone. The wounds on her body still hurt a little. She could not resist taking in a shallow breath. “Miss Keene!” Mimi immediately put down her phone and looked at her. “Are you awake? How do you feel? Do you feel uncomfortable anywhere?” Jocelyn laughed and shook her head upon hearing the frantic tone of Mimi’s voice. “I’m fine. Why are you here?” Mimi rolled her eyes in irritation and said, “I witnessed a gruesome car accident scene the moment I drove out. I was almost shocked to death back then, alright? I sent you to the hospital with a man. Luckily, you’re alright. Otherwise, I’ll drown in guilt today!” Joce
Skyler had had a drink with Jim last night. He had decided to be a man and not quarrel with a woman. He would return to their home voluntarily and try to ease the tension between both of them. Yale suddenly let out a sigh of relief. “What flowers should I order? Roses?” Yale had a general idea of what had happened between Skyler and Jocelyn. He thought that President Moore was planning to apologize to Miss White. However, Skyler shook his head and said, “Buy some lilies. It’s fine as long as the meaning gets across!” Skyler felt that it would be way too obvious that he was expressing his love for Jocelyn if he bought her roses! Yale nodded and said, “Alright, I’ll get it done right now!” However, as soon as he walked over to the door of the office, his icy boss called out at him, “Yale!” Yale turned around and looked at him in a daze. “President Moore, is there anything else?”There was a rather unnatural expression on Skyler’s face. “Will I come off as… cheesy in t
Jocelyn was stunned! She had truly been thinking about Skyler and Rhode when she almost got hit by the car today. Skyler had not been returning to Villa No. 1 lately. They had been sleeping in separate rooms all along. She was still staying in the room that she originally occupied. Nobody could affect her emotions. However, she felt that something was different. She had been starting to find it hard to sleep at night recently. Walter assumed that Jocelyn was silently agreeing to what he said since she was not saying anything. He said angrily, “Jo, since he treats you so badly, you should break up with him. I’ll look after you, alright?” Jocelyn was stunned. She cast a complicated glance at Walter and said, “Walt, what kind of joke is that?!” There was an exceptionally serious expression on Walter’s face. “I’m not joking. I’m telling you the truth!” A cold expression formed on Jocelyn’s delicate face. “In that case, I hope that you won’t say anything like that anym
Skyler: [You’re overthinking. I’ve washed up and I’m planning to sleep right now. If she doesn’t want to come back, she doesn’t need to come back for the rest of her life!] Jim: [You’re obviously saying this out of anger. I’ve never seen you being in such a mess because of a woman. Stop being stubborn. If she doesn’t come back, you can always look for her!] Skyler felt like beating Jim up after Jim called him out for being stubborn. He was stubborn, but why was he supposed to look for her?! His emotions had been stirred up by his anxiety for an entire day, but things had ended up like that. He was beyond angered. Why would he look for her?! That would only happen in his dreams! Skyler: [I’ll never look for her!] Jim: [Hah, man, you’re really stubborn!] Skyler: [Do you want me to block you?] Jim: [No, no, I was just teasing you. You don’t need to look for her. You can make a phone call to ask about what happened. If you keep being so cold and uncaring, your wife mig
"No way, I want to see her now! Which hospital is she in?" Skyler's tone was persistent and his face was full of concern. Mimi rolled her eyes, angry and speechless. "Do whatever you want, it's none of my business!""If you don't give me the address, I'll find it myself!" It was as if Skyler could not tell that she was speechless and angry.Mimi gave in. "Claude Hospital on Jollz Street in the city center, do whatever you want! Don't call me again!"Mimi finished and hung up while labeling him in her heart as insane!That night, someone's sweet dream was interrupted.Skyler heard from the other party's comments that Jocelyn's injuries should not be serious but she still needed to spend the night in the hospital which made him really worried. Skyler grabbed his car keys and drove to the hospital.He felt incredibly guilty now and felt that he should not have given Jocelyn the cold shoulder.How could he know nothing when something happened to her?On the way, he called Yale
Mimi and Jocelyn were staying in a twin-sharing room. Since there was no patient in the other bed, Mimi happily occupied it.Mimi answered that baffling phone call while she was ready to sleep and was just about ready to drift into sleep when there was suddenly a banging on the door.Mimi was so angry that she wanted to start cursing!Her emotions were already tipped off the edge.She got out of bed in a fit of anger, rushed to the door, and pulled it open.Skyler heard that this woman's voice was similar to the one on the phone so he asked expressionlessly, "Is Jocelyn in this room?"Not only did Mimi recognize Skyler's voice but she also recognized who he was. She straight away exclaimed, "Are you insane! Why are you banging on the door in the middle of the night?"Skyler ignored her anger and calmly said, "I wouldn't come to the hospital if I wasn't insane. Get out of the way, I'm here to see Jocelyn!"Joycelyn did not sleep well the night before so tonight the doctor gave h
Yale nodded. "Yes. After he caught the two of them, he separated them and let one of them go. The man who hit Miss White was threatened that if he did not kill you, Shaun would kill his lover so he was forced to attack you! However, since he failed to kill you, he killed himself."Shaun was not satisfied so he told the man he released that you killed his lover and he believed the lies Shaun told him. Since we were investigating his lover before, he really believed it was true and wanted to pay homage to his dead lover so he chose to use the same method to kill Miss White and let you go through the pain of losing a loved one. I read all of this in his suicide note!"Skyler stood in front of the window in the ward with a complex expression. He was not surprised that Shaun wanted to get revenge on him and Jocelyn. This father and daughter duo was equally insane. Not only that but because of Skyler's influence, Giada had a miserable life inside so it was normal for Shaun to want to
Even if Jocelyn had the thought to explain, she brushed it off. When she looked at Skyler, her mood was complicated because she was supposed to be angry at him but after not seeing him for a few days, she did not want to lose her temper or chase him away. Instead, the more contradicted she felt, the more frustrated she got.Skyler looked at Jocelyn's conflicted expression and his expression darkened. "What did you say to me?"Jocelyn whipped her head over and looked at him. Could it be that he forgot?It was impossible since his reaction was so bad that he almost strangled her!When she thought about that, she decided to take the initiative to admit her wrongdoings. "I said that... you were disgusting!" Jocelyn turned away uncomfortably. "I want to apologize for that. I'm sorry, it was my mistake since it's wrong to scold someone, but that day I... that day I was just too angry so I lashed out at you. I hope you don't mind!"When Skyler heard this, he did not care about her
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
