Chapter 360When Jocelyn heard that Skyler called her "honey", her heart made a flip-flop. She pulled a long face and tried her best to hide her emotions. "Nothing special!"Skyler didn't give up. "Actually, you can have feelings for me!"She became more serious. "I have no feelings for you!"He looked at her resignedly. "You can have feelings for me indeed!"She glanced at him.Suddenly, she noticed that he was strange. She stared at him. "Skyler, didn't you say that I couldn't have any feelings for you?"He felt embarrassed and showed a lack of confidence. It was rare for him. He bit the bullet and made up his reason. "In physics, protons keep moving. All things are made up of protons, including humans. Even protons move irregularly, let alone humans' thoughts. I have changed my thoughts. You can have feelings for me now!"After he finished speaking, the tips of his ears turned red slightly.She was stuck for words and looked at him with a complicated expression. "He is so g
Chapter 361The previous atmosphere was ruined. Skyler stood up and said, "I'll take a call."Skyler picked up the phone, and just after he listened to Yale for a short while, his face darkened.On the phone, Yale's voice was serious. "Mr. Moore, someone died in the hotel just now. It is Renee from the design department. Renee's body is in Ms. White's room, and her lips are blue. Now the initial guess is that she was poisoned. The hotel has called the police. The specific results will come out after investigation."Skyler scowled, almost instantly thinking of Yuni's plan.He said in a deep voice, "Try to get someone to check the electric mosquito-repellent liquid in that room."Yale nodded. "Okay, I'll do it right now."Skyler hung up the phone and looked at Jocelyn, who was sitting on the bed. He was scared.If Jocelyn had gone back to that room tonight, what would have happened?He stared at Jocelyn with a complicated expression. "Jocelyn, Renee is dead."Jocelyn jerked her
Chapter 362So Renee asked her assistant Ashley to pester Jocelyn. She even gave Ashley a box of sleeping pills and told Ashley to add the pills to a drink and make Jocelyn drink it when there was no other way.Renee then had Ashley steal the key card to Jocelyn's room.Ashley helped Renee because Renee had promised her that as long as Renee helped her this time, she would help Ashley become a full member and be promoted from a designer assistant to an assistant designer in a short time.Ashley was tempted, and Jocelyn was nice, so she agreed.Everything was going well until Skyler came to Ashley and Renee's room and called Jocelyn away. Seeing that Skyler came to find Jocelyn, Ashley knew something was wrong and rushed to find Renee.She called Renee and sent Renee messages, but Renee didn't answer or reply.Ashley was scared that Renee's trick would be revealed and that Skyler would get mad, so she just wanted to find Renee quickly.She knew that Renee was in Jocelyn's room
Chapter 363Abel completely blocked the crowd's view of Jocelyn as he gave Skyler a disdainful look and a soft grunt.Jocelyn bowed her head thoughtfully, standing behind Abel.Seeing this, Skyler thought Jocelyn had taken Abel as her protector.Skyler's face darkened, and his chest heaved slightly.At that moment, some people were elbowing their way to the door of the room.The hotel manager looked at the crowd apologetically and then said firmly, "You can't enter the scene. We have called the police. The police do not allow the scene to be destroyed. Everyone should do their civic duty. Do not just add to the chaos."Hearing this, the crowd knew that the police would come later. They stopped jostling and just looked over curiously.When people were pushing and shoving just now, someone bumped into Jocelyn.Abel stretched out his arms to protect Jocelyn between him and the wall.This movement looked intimate.But Jocelyn was in low spirits with her head down, seemingly thin
Chapter 364Skyler's expression changed. "Don't get me wrong. I just want you to stay away from Abel."Jocelyn looked at Skyler with a complicated expression.He looked like he was jealous, but when she thought of his quick reaction after she asked him if he liked her in the room earlier, she was a little unsure.She said with a cold face, "He's a man, and I'm a woman. Of course, I will keep my distance from him, but he's my friend, and I can't just ignore him because of such a childish remark from you. What's more, who are you to ask me to do so?"Skyler seemed to be stumped by her question. His body stiffened, and his handsome face darkened.At that moment, someone suddenly shouted, "The police are here!"Jocelyn glanced at Skyler and said softly, " Mr. Moore, don't get worked up. Let's settle the matter first."Hearing Jocelyn call him Mr. Moore in a gentle but distant tone, Skyler was very angry, but he could do nothing with her.Seeing Jocelyn walking towards the few poli
Chapter 365Hearing this, Abel glared at Skyler viciously, as if he had committed some great crime.Abel felt that if not for Skyler, Jocelyn would certainly not have been implicated, so Skyler was the one to blame.Skyler, who did not pay attention to Abel's provocative gaze, scowled and stared at Pedro. "I am just explaining to you what happened at that time. It does not matter whether you believe this testimony or not. We do not need testimony to prove our innocence. I took her to the exclusive penthouse suite at that time and asked her something. You can watch the surveillance video to see when we went upstairs and when we came out."Pedro saw Skyler's calm gaze. It didn't seem that Skyler was lying.Pedro's eyes flashed. "Okay, I will now send someone to watch the surveillance video. If there's something wrong with the hotel's mosquito-repellent liquid, we have to investigate who had come in and out of the room by watching the surveillance video."He had just said that when
Chapter 366Jocelyn shook her head. "No need. It's just that she's out of the city right now, so I'll call her and ask her to take the fastest flight back."Pedro nodded his head in agreement.Jocelyn took the phone and went aside to make a call.Pedro became hopeful after learning that there was an expert who could restore the surveillance video, and with several officers on the scene, he did not pay much attention to the strange waiter.Abel lowered his head thoughtfully, looking gloomy.He stood in the dark, half of his face in the light. The purple diamond on his ear gleamed mysteriously.Skyler dropped his eyes, sunk in thought.At this time, Yale called him. Skyler took two steps towards Jocelyn and picked up the phone.Yale's voice was deep. "Mr. Moore, I had someone identify the composition of the mosquito-repellent liquid. There is a volatile nerve agent called VX in it. It's hard to get. A small amount of it can kill a person."Skyler nodded. "I see. Go and investi
Chapter 367When Skyler saw her eyes full of tears, his heart twitched slightly, and his heart ached.He stretched out the other hand and ruffled Jocelyn's hair. "Look how scared you are. It's just a superficial wound. It doesn't hurt."Jocelyn was worried and sad, her voice urgent and angry, "Is it a superficial wound? Skyler, do you want to die?"How could it not hurt? She was not a fool!Skyler stared at Jocelyn with unprecedented seriousness. "As long as you're okay, this injury was nothing."Skyler completely ignored his injured hand, as if the wound were not on him.Jocelyn's tears fell. She immediately turned her head and wiped her tears.Abel stood aside and saw Jocelyn's tears rolling down. His face was sullen.He directly stepped forward, subconsciously shouldered Jocelyn aside, and took a look at Skyler's wound. "Jocelyn, don't be sad. I know he was injured because of you, and you feel guilty, but his wound needs to be treated."After Abel said that, the hotel mana
