Mimi walked in.She had come to look for Jocelyn and sign the contract for the canceled order, but she did not expect the department to be in too much of a ruckus to receive clients.The first thing she heard when she walked in was that someone was going to fire Jocelyn.Mimi was instantly angered. Jocelyn was her friend and anyone who wanted to target Jocelyn must first go through her.Jocelyn felt lightheaded when she saw Mimi, “Why’re you here?” Mimi pouted. “Am I not your company’s client? Why can’t I be here?”Jocelyn looked at her exasperatedly, she did not want to reply.Renee immediately approached them with a flattering tone. “Miss Keene, Jocelyn hit a client and now the client and her friend are both canceling their orders. We’re currently discussing her punishment, so I don’t think she’ll be able to follow up on your order. However, please feel free to consider other designers to finish your order.”Mimi looked at Renee sarcastically. “By other designers, you meant
Renee did not expect to find Yuni disliking Jocelyn as she did, seeing how Yuni had helped her target Jocelyn since the beginning.Renee quickly nodded, “Miss Shaw is right. You can praise Jocelyn’s character, Miss Keene, but you cannot stop our company from punishing her. It’s a different matter altogether.”Jocelyn could not help but frown when she saw the blatant targeting from the two.Mimi chuckled in anger. “Sure, let’s talk about this issue, then. How much is the jewelry those two ordered? I’ll put an order for twice the amount. That way, Jocelyn isn’t causing any financial losses, hmm?”No one expected this from Mimi and everyone in the design department wore shocked expressions on their faces.After all, no one would have thought that Mimi would be willing to spend so much more money on making jewelry just for Jocelyn.Davis wanted to protect Jocelyn and after hearing Mimi’s offer, he immediately spoke up. “Now that the loss from the order has been filled, there’s no nee
“What’s worse is that he actually had the gall to come to my house and say that I misunderstood him. He and Hailey were just friends, ordering something at the coffee shop to talk about business. You don’t even know how angry I felt. If I can’t come out with evidence, our families won’t be able to call off the engagement since they had already come to an agreement in the beginning.”Jocelyn’s eyes twinkled. “Why did you come and look for me?”Mimi chuckled and tugged on Jocelyn’s arm. “Because I need a plan. You would never leave me to die alone, right?” Jocelyn looked at her numbly but said nothing. Mimi continued, “Jocelyn, I know you wouldn’t want me to get engaged with a playboy like him, right?” Jocelyn looked at her lightheadedly. “What do you have in mind?” Mimi immediately smiled and leaned over Jocelyn’s ear to whisper her plan. At the same time, in the bathroom, Yuni was washing her hands as she glanced at Renee’s twisted expression.Yuni chuckled. “There’s no po
Everyone shared a look and said nothing.Renee frowned and quickly approached her. “Mrs. Leeds, what…”Before Renee could finish speaking, Mrs. Leeds slapped her across the face. “You wretched little woman! I can’t believe you worked with my husband to lie to me just for money! I can’t believe I made an order with you!”Renee cupped her cheek and looked at Mrs. Leeds in disbelief. “How could you hit me?”“What’s wrong with hitting you?” Mrs. Leeds glared at Renee domineeringly as if she was looking at an ant.Renee shook in anger over the fact that she was slapped in front of her colleagues. “Why are you so unreasonable? Your husband was the one who betrayed you, how is it my fault?”Mrs. Leeds grabbed Renee’s hair. “You wretched little woman! Finally admitting it, huh? You knew what my husband was doing behind my back, so how can you say that this has nothing to do with you?”Renee bent over awkwardly as Mrs. Leeds pulled on her hair. Renee did not dare to fight back, and she c
Yuni whispered, “The people around her. I know Lexie from the IT department likes Davis a lot, but I’m Davis’ actual girlfriend.”Yuni’s tone turned meaningful, “If you trust me, I can help you…”Renee looked up at her darkly and with an evil glint deep in her gaze.The workday was ending, and Jocelyn received a Whatsapp message from Skyler.Skyler: [Let’s have dinner together, I’ll wait for you at the parking lot later.]Jocelyn: [Sorry, but I have something going on tonight.]Skyler: [Something going on? What is it? With whom?]Jocelyn could imagine how Skyler must be frowning in displeasure with a tense look on his face as he texted.She could not help but smile.Jocelyn: [Mimi and I are going to have dinner together tonight. I might be home late.]Skyler: [What time exactly? We have a curfew.]Jocelyn: [What curfew? What time? I wasn’t told of this.]Skyler: [From now on, 10 p.m., set by yours truly. Why, is there a problem?]Jocelyn: [I might only be back after eleven
Mimi nodded and entered the room next door with the key.Jocelyn looked around to make sure there was no one in the corridor before opening her door and going inside.Skyler walked out of the corridor with a dark look on his face once the ladies went into the rooms.Walter had asked him to go home for dinner yesterday, but he declined because he was too busy.Walter called him again for dinner today, and since Jocelyn was busy, Skyler decided to eat with Walter.However, he had never expected Jocelyn to skip out on dinner with him to go to a hotel.Now, he wanted to know what she was going to do in the hotel.Jocelyn walked into the room and looked around. Then she walked to the round table at the corner of the room and placed the camera on a branch in the vase on the table. She made sure to move the flowers so that the camera was covered by a flower bud, and no one would notice it. Then she turned her phone on to check the position of the camera and realized that it was recor
Skyler kissed Jocelyn intently in the dark after staying in the cabinet in the corner of the room for such a long time. Jocelyn struggled against him for a couple of seconds. She then heard Skyler’s low, husky, and domineering voice. “Be more focused!” Jocelyn was stunned. She blushed and closed her eyes. When Skyler let go of her, Jocelyn’s face was as red as a cherry. Jocelyn moved her hands about frantically. She opened the door of the closet and walked out swiftly. She then kept away the monitor device in the room. Skyler followed her out. He looked at Jocelyn silently. He could not resist massaging his forehead. Just now, it was truly hard… for him to control himself. Jocelyn kept standing with her back facing him. It seemed like she was angry at him. Skyler felt slightly exasperated. He said in a low voice, “Jocelyn White!” Jocelyn remained silent. She took out the last monitor device, turned around, and walked away. Skyler finally could not stop himself
Jocelyn remained silent. After a while, she opened the door and stared at Skyler expressionlessly. “Mr. Moore, is there anything?” Skyler could not stand Jocelyn’s attitude. He frowned and said, “I didn’t mean that in the hotel just now. Back then…”Jocelyn interrupted his words, “Are you looking for me right now because you want me to fulfill my duty to you as a wife? Sure, please come in, Mr. Moore!” Skyler’s handsome face stiffened. He was so angered that he felt like strangling her. “Jocelyn White, do you understand what I’m telling you?” There was a cold expression on her face. “Of course. I won’t reject you whenever you need me, Mr. Moore. In the future, I won’t overreact when you kiss me or do anything like that anymore!” Skyler's breath lurched. He gritted his teeth and snapped angrily, “Jocelyn White, are you trying to make me angry? You know that I didn’t mean that. Must you act like this on purpose?” Jocelyn’s expression did not change at all. She removed a
