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
Chapter 368Jocelyn looked up at him and pursed her lips, her eyes full of sadness. "But it must be hurting. It's my fault. I should have been more careful."Skyler sighed. This was the first time Jocelyn had shown such real emotions to him, but it made him so distressed.For the first time, he would rather she didn't express her emotions so truthfully.He didn't want to see her so sad at all.He looked at Jocelyn and said, "Don't blame yourself. If there's a crazy person on the street slashing people with a knife, and I go to save them, should I blame those people for not being careful enough?"Jocelyn sadly looked away and rubbed her eyes quickly, her voice muffled. "But that's different!"Skyler said resignedly, "Actually, there's no difference. Henry was going crazy, and no one knew it at the time."Jocelyn did not speak. Skyler paused and continued, "Now do not think about anything else. Since the culprit came for you, Pedro would certainly ask you about the situation. You
Chapter 369Learning the truth, Jocelyn had mixed feelings.It was hard to say whether Henry was bad or not. He had been very kind to his parents for so many years and had never done any bad things before.Yet he had known that this was a murder, but he still did it.But he tried to kill another person to get the money for his father's treatment, which made people feel sad.Some people did bad things because they were vicious, and some were forced to do so.In this world, it was difficult to distinguish between good and evil.The police asked Jocelyn if she had any enemies. Jocelyn, in accordance with Skyler's words, repeated Yuni's words in the bathroom that day, and Pedro immediately looked tense and asked someone to investigate Yuni.After Pedro finished asking the relevant questions, he sent Jocelyn and Skyler out of the police station.Skyler couldn't drive, so Jocelyn got into the driver's seat.Pedro looked at Skyler, who was about to get into the passenger seat.Fina
