Chapter 370Skyler mentioned that again, his voice deep and his expression serious. "Stay away from Abel in the future."Jocelyn's face changed slightly, and she frowned at Skyler.Skyler was her savior, and so was Abel. They both saved her. One had been drugged, and the other had been injured. One was her friend, and the other was someone she liked.Jocelyn was torn between them.Skyler looked at her without saying a word, which made Jocelyn nervous. "Skyler, Abel saved me."Skyler was so jealous that he almost forgot about it.He frowned at once, and his tone was somewhat annoyed and cold. "Just do as you wish."He then walked over to turn on the TV and watch the financial channel.If he had treated Jocelyn like that in the past, Jocelyn would have ignored him and gone upstairs to sleep.However, today was different. Skyler saved her regardless of his safety. Few people could do that.Jocelyn was not that heartless, not to mention that she was secretly in love with Skyle
Chapter 371Jocelyn looked very confused.‘If the blind date was not successful, how could Skyler be so close to Ilona?’Skyler was a man difficult to deal with, who had always treated others coldly. It was almost impossible for him to allow a woman to stay with him for long, let alone take pictures of the woman.The moment Skyler saw Jocelyn's expression, he knew what she was thinking about.He twitched his mouth. "Don’t think what you see is the truth. There is nothing between me and Ilona. You not only mind that Ilona stayed with me, but also mind that Rhode left a lipstick in my car. Have you fallen in love with me?"When Jocelyn heard his last sentence, she became nervous and embarrassed.She felt even more embarrassed when she recalled that Skyler said it was impossible for him to love her in the private suite of the hotel.She glanced at Skyler with embarrassment and began to prevaricate, "What nonsense are you talking about? I... I... Didn't I say that though I was only
Chapter 372When Jocelyn raised her head, she saw Skyler finished answering the call.Looking at her intently, Skyler seemed to be thinking about something serious.Jocelyn was about to speak when her phone rang.When she saw that the call was from Walter, she hesitated for a while. But in the end, she answered his call.However, before she could speak, Walter asked anxiously, "Jocelyn, are you alright? I heard that someone died in Hot Spring Hotel in Mauve Mountain. As you were also in the hotel, I’m very worried about you!"Jocelyn blinked her eyes. She was about to stand up when she heard Skyler order, "Sit!"Jocelyn stiffened, looking at him with embarrassment.“Talk to your friend in my presence.”Jocelyn became stunned. But as Skyler was injured, she didn't quarrel with him.Moreover, it made no difference where she answered the call.Walter couldn't help asking when he heard a man’s voice come from the end of the phone. "Is there someone else beside you?"Jocelyn loo
Chapter 373Jocelyn stiffened, looking resigned. "What do you think I should say? Should I tell him that you’re my husband? Didn't we agree to hide our marriage?"Skyler looked annoyed. But he couldn’t dispute her words, as he indeed agreed to hide their marriage.However, he subconsciously thought that the senior who had called Jocelyn was the one she liked.Moreover, he thought that Jocelyn refused to tell her senior that he was her husband because she didn’t want her senior to misunderstand her. She wanted to be with her senior one year later, as she and Skyler would divorce then.Thinking of this, Skyler looked angrier and angrier. Even the atmosphere around him became tense.Jocelyn sensed something was wrong when she saw his expression, feeling unhappy. "Sky..."Before she could utter his name, she saw her phone on the coffee table flashing.She and Skyler looked at it almost at the same time.It was a message from Abel.“Jocelyn, you are alone now, right? Stay away fro
Chapter 374However, Skyler said in a stern voice, "Don't follow me. Otherwise, I won’t bandage up my hand!"He knew that Jocelyn cared about his injured hand because it was hurt when he saved her.Jocelyn was so shocked that she stood in the living room and didn't dare to move.She replied in a depressed and sad tone, "Don't do so!"‘Even if he is angry, he shouldn’t harm himself.’Skyler had already walked upstairs before he said, "I’ll definitely do what I’ve said if you continue following me!"Jocelyn didn't even dare to move an inch.Sitting on the sofa, she didn't reply to Abel's messages, as she was distressed and fretful.‘Why is Skyler so stubborn?’‘Abel has just sent several messages to me. And I didn’t anger Skyer. Why is he angry with me?’In Skyler's room, he was sending messages to Jim with his uninjured hand.He told Jim what had happened today, especially what he and Jocelyn had talked about.“What? When Jocelyn asked if you liked her, you answered you did
Chapter 375Jocelyn sat in the living room for almost two hours without doing anything. She was very worried about Skyler’s injured hand!However, she did not dare to go upstairs, for fear that Skyler would get angry and harm his injured hand.She could only sit on the sofa, worrying about him.In the end, she couldn’t tolerate herself sitting and doing nothing. So, she asked the housekeeper to enter Skyler’s room and see how he was now.The housekeeper thought that Skyler was seriously injured, so he went upstairs quietly at the risk of being scolded.However, the housekeeper was shocked the moment he opened the door to Skyler’s room.Skyler face was red, and he was delirious. The housekeeper found that Skyler’s forehead was hot when he touched it.He hurried downstairs to tell Jocelyn how Skyler was.Jocelyn felt particularly guilty, as she shouldn’t have ignored him. ‘Skyler’s wound must be infected, so he is running a fever.’She asked the housekeeper to call the family d
Chapter 376After a while, Skyler said in a low voice with a complicated expression on his face, "Give me the medicine!"Skyler agreed to take the medicine in the end. Breathing a sigh of relief, Jocelyn hurriedly handed the medicine and water to him.Skyler gave her a cool look and took the medicine with his uninjured hand. But he didn’t take the water.Jocelyn raised her eyebrows. "Take the water!"Skyler felt annoyed and looked at Jocelyn, as if looking at an idiot. "Do you think I can hold a water glass with my other hand?"Jocelyn became stunned and then said, "Sorry. I forgot it. Take the medicine. I’ll hold the water for you."It was the first time that Jocelyn had been so patient and tender to him.However, Skyler felt unhappy. ‘If I hadn’t been injured when saving her, probably she would not care for me.’Thinking of this, Skyler looked upset.When Jocelyn noticed that he didn’t move, she said, "Hurry up and take the medicine!"Skyler looked up at her and said with
Chapter 377When Skyler saw Jocelyn laughing happily, he was angered. "You'd better do what you’ve promised. Well, go back to your room now. I'm going to bed!"But Jocelyn walked to sit on the sofa and took out her phone. "Go to sleep. I'll accompany you. When your fever subsides, I'll leave!"Skyler glanced at her phone. ‘She must be chatting with another man.’Snorting, he said unhappily, "Suit yourself!"Then he lay down with his back to Jocelyn.Initially, Skyler planned to sleep after Jocelyn left.However, he fell asleep unknowingly because the medicine sent him to sleep.When Skyler woke up the next day, he found Jocelyn curled up on the sofa with her eyes closed. She even held an electronic thermometer in her hand.At this moment, Skyler had mixed feelings. He stared at Jocelyn, with a complicated and gentle expression on his face.As soon as Jocelyn opened her eyes, she found Skyler gazing at her.She felt embarrassed. "Why are you staring at me?"Skyler suddenly t
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
