Chapter 385Jocelyn compressed her lips and said seriously, "I'm not afraid that others will know our relationship, but we have reached the agreement to keep our marriage a secret from the beginning. Now that we have the agreement, I need to keep it. Besides, we will get a divorce in less one year. If others know that you have a marriage and your wife is me, it will be bad for your reputation. You are so nice to me, so I can't be so ungrateful to you!"Skyler smiled faintly, "Then I need to praise you and thank you for being grateful?"She waved her hands. "There is no need for your to thank me. You have helped me so many times. I need to thank you!"He felt annoyed and snorted, "How bad is your reputation? You even think that it will be bad for my reputation after others know that I have a marriage with you. Generally speaking, you're a woman, and thus, it will be worse for your reputation."She was stuck for words. She didn't expect him to say so.After all, they had the agreem
Chapter 386Skyler's expression became stilted. He avoided Jocelyn's gaze. "Nothing special! I just asked casually!"She frowned. She was anxious to clock in, so she didn't notice his strange reaction but said in a hurry, "I don't know if I'm available this Friday. If I'm not available, I will tell you!"He nodded. "Got it!"Hearing that, she closed the car door and rushed towards the elevator.Looking at her back, he sighed. He didn't get out of the car until he sat in the car for a long time.As soon as Jocelyn arrived at the design department and sat down, Yvie came up to her quietly.Yvie said, "I heard that you had gotten hurt. Have you recovered yet?"Jocelyn thought that Yvie was caring about her health. She said with a smile, "I have recovered. Thank you for your concern!"Yvie smiled awkwardly, blinked, glanced at her secretly and said nervously, "I heard that Lexie of the IT department had resigned!"Jocelyn didn't take what Yvie had said seriously. She sorted out h
Chapter 387Hearing what Yvie had said, Jocelyn sighed. "Alright. If I get any news about Jim, I will tell you. But please do not say that you won't snatch Jim from Lexie. Lexie hasn't been with Jim. It's only Jim's own wishful thinking!"What Jocelyn had said was straightforward. Yvie felt surprised and said, "How is it possible? Mr. Rand is so nice. Why doesn't Lexie like him?"Jocelyn frowned. Then she thought that Yvie was always the first one who stood up to defend her no matter what had happened, so she said sincerely, "Although you think that he is nice, it doesn't mean that all the others will think that he is nice. Different people have different opinions. Do you understand?"Yvie was a little listless and nodded in confusion. "I understand roughly!"Jocelyn nodded. "Alright. Now that you have understood my meaning, you can go to work now. Don't think too much!"Yvie was in a bad mood and went to work.Jocelyn had promised Yvie to tell her Jim's news.To Jocelyn's surp
Chapter 388Lexie let go of Jim's arm and walked toward Jocelyn.Seeing Lexie walking towards them, Skyler said in a low voice to Jocelyn, "You can have a chat with Lexie. I will go somewhere else!"Jocelyn nodded.As soon as Skyler left, Jocelyn couldn't help but ask, "Why do you come here? You always avoided Jim. I thought that you wouldn't come here with him!"After Lexie heard that, a trace of irritation flashed through her cold face. "If you had been badgered by him for the whole day, you would compromise too. Besides, he told me that you would come here. Thus, I come here and would like to confirm if you have recovered or not!"Skyler kept an eye on Jocelyn tightly before, and Jocelyn didn't want Lexie to see her wounds all over, so she refused Lexie's visit.Jocelyn didn't expect Lexie to be worried about her for so long. She felt sorry for Lexie.Thinking of Yvie, Jocelyn asked, "Jim is pursuing you. Do you have any feelings for him?"Lexie glanced at Jocelyn. "We're j
Chapter 389Ilona held the glass and froze.She didn't expect someone to help Jocelyn in such a situation. She gritted her teeth in anger.Jocelyn didn't have the time to avoid the wine and thought that she would be splashed. Unexpectedly, Zayn showed up in time and blocked the wine for her.She raised her head and saw Zayn looking at her with concern. He asked, "Are you OK?"She shook her head, got rid of his arms, glanced at his back and said resignedly, "Your suit is stained!"After she finished speaking, she turned around to look at Ilona. Jocelyn's eyes were filled with disgust. She said coldly, "Are you out of mind? Don’t make a scene here!"'If she splashed the wine on me, I would let it go.''After all, I pissed her off. However, she splashed the wine on Zayn. He is my friend. I'm not able to keep calm.'When Ilona was about to say something, someone said in a cold and clear voice, "Why are you all gathering here?"Zayn saw Skyler walking over. Zayn glanced at him and
Chapter 390Skyler said coldly, "In the morning, didn't you say that we would get a divorce sooner or later? I haven't given you any decent gifts yet. Choose one!"Jocelyn was reluctant to accept it. "There is no need for you to buy a gift for me indeed!"He said peremptorily and coldly, "Now that you refuse to choose one, I will regard it as that you want me to choose a gift for you!"Jocelyn's face froze. 'I have never meant that!'He knew that she might feel unhappy, so he glanced at her and explained kindly, "Don't think too much. Even if I buy it, I may not give it to you!"Hearing that, she was relieved indeed.'But it means that he will give it to another woman!' After she thought it over, she felt bitter.'I'm bitchy indeed. When he said that he would like to buy a gift for me, I felt unhappy. After he said that he might give it to another, I still felt unhappy!'Soon, the auction was nearly finished. Skyler hadn't seen the item that he was interested in yet.He was i
Chapter 391The host smilingly said, "Does anyone else want to continue to bid? If not, I will put the hammer down to determine the final winner. 100 million dollars, going once, going twice, sold. Congratulations to Mr. Moore, you won the coronet. After the auction, the staff will contact you to hand over the coronet!"The charity auction ended. Jocelyn went to the restroom.Skyler was waiting for her outside.At that moment, Ilona came over, her face livid. "Skyler, do you have to stand against me for Jocelyn?"Skyler looked at her casually, and his tone was cool. "Who are you to make me stand against you?"Ilona's hands trembled slightly in anger as she sobbed, "Skyler, why do you have to be like this? What do you see in Jocelyn? The girlfriend you talked about at your house that day is Jocelyn, right? Her family background is not as good as mine, and her face and figure are not better than mine. Why do you..."Skyler did not want to bother with her, so he directly interrupte
Chapter 392Jim had a curious look on his face. "Don't look at me like that. It creeps me out. I'm just curious. Are you planning to give that to Jocelyn?"Skyler's eyes flashed as he said calmly, "I know her well. She won't accept it now!"Jim was confused. "Then why did you buy that? Just for fun? I thought you had bought such an expensive thing to please her."He heard that Skyler had bought the coronet, partly because he was cross with Ilona. Perhaps Ilona had upset Jocelyn, so Skyler went against Ilona.Skyler looked at Jim as if Jim were a retard. "Even though she doesn't accept it now, it doesn't mean she won't accept it in the future. Be smart!"When Jim heard this, he understood. "So you're planning to give it to her later?"Skyler gave Jim a look and told him the truth. "I want to start over with her!"Jim's face was full of confusion. "You guys are married. How do you want to start over?"Skyler looked at Jim as if Jim were an idiot, but because Jim was his old frie
