Chapter 404When Skyler saw Jocelyn answering a call, he picked up his phone, as he planned to call Nancy, the show planner.When Jocelyn noticed Skyler was walking towards the balcony with his phone, she didn’t think much and continued talking with Lexie.Lexie had been a detached person, but the show really angered her.She suggested, "Find out what's going on. You’d better not participate in the second episode of the show!"Jocelyn knitted her brows tightly. "But the contract I’ve signed requires me to take part in the second episode!"On the balcony.The second Nancy answered Skyler’s call, she heard him say angrily, "Nancy, give me an explanation. Is your show deliberately targeting the designer of my company?"Nancy replied in an apologetic voice, "President Moore, I’m sorry. This is not the case. The show did this to create a highlight and attract people's attention. If the show is not popular, your investment and sponsorship will be wasted!"Skyler knitted his brows an
Chapter 405At this, Skyler felt confused. He couldn't help frowning when he saw Jocelyn lower her head after saying these words.She didn’t vent her feelings, but just sat thoughtfully, as it was not the first time that she had been scolded by netizens.However, she could reverse netizens’ opinion of her when they blamed her for plagiarizing Lily’s designs, as she had evidence.But now, she was totally at a loss to deal with this matter.When Skyler noticed that Jocelyn kept silent and gawked at nothingness, he felt very worried, because he had never seen she look so dispirited before.The moment his eyes fell on her phone, he saw at a glance some hashtags, and his face hardened immediately.#Jocelyn is so fierce##Drive Jocelyn out of the show##I feel sorry for Rhode#After he took out his phone and flipped through Twitter’s hashtags for only several seconds, he wanted to scold the netizens.Though the show hadn’t come to an end, Jocelyn had been scolded by a majority of
Chapter 406“I won't talk with you. You must be insane. I’ll use another account to revile Jocelyn.”“Even though you change your account, I’ll find you and scold you.”“…”When Jocelyn read the contents of the screenshot, she felt so warm that she shed tears.“Don't be sad. No matter what other people think of you, I always support you. Although my support is not strong enough, you must believe that you didn’t do anything wrong. It is others who have done the wrong things.”Reading the message, Jocelyn felt less dispirited, as if a person lost in darkness had seen the light.“Thank you.”“Don’t mention it. I’m going to continue to scold those stupid netizens.”Jocelyn reached out to wipe her tears off her eyes.At this time, Lexie sent a message to Jocelyn.“Don't feel sad. I support you! I’ll stay up for the whole night and hack the accounts of the netizens who scold you.”Jocelyn didn't want to cry, but the second she read Lexie's message, she couldn’t control herself an
Chapter 407Jocelyn didn't want Walter to worry about her, let alone help her. She said affirmatively, "Yes, he is my boyfriend. If there is nothing else you want to say, I’ll hang up! Bye."Jocelyn hung up and went upstairs to wash her face.At the same time, Skyler ordered succinctly, "Remove all the news about Jocelyn from the hot search list right now!"When Yale heard Skyler's words, he immediately shook his head. "President Moore, you’ll worsen the situation by doing so. People are heatedly talking about Ms. White. If we remove all the news about her now, people will only think that she has a guilty conscience and that she is really a bad person! Moreover, everyone will think that Ms. White is too sensitive, so she can’t accept others’ criticism even if she did something wrong and she just wants to escape from reality! Netizens will become angrier then, and the situation will only get worse!"Skyler said in an impatient voice, "If we don't wipe out the news, can you come up
Chapter 408Though she was clear that most netizens didn’t know about the truth and made comments casually, she was still overwhelmed with sadness and pressure.When Skyler opened the door and came in, he saw Jocelyn gawking into nothingness, with a sad expression on her face. She looked hurt. At the sight of it, Skyler felt more distressed.He walked to hug Jocelyn and said in a comforting voice, "Jocelyn, don't be afraid!"Jocelyn rarely registered her fragile feelings, and she replied in a crying voice, "I don't want to feel afraid. But when I think so many people don't know about the truth and scold me madly, I feel upset. They are so crazy. Will they find out where I live and dox me?"When Jocelyn said these words, her voice sounded panicked.Skyler hugged her tightly. "Don't be afraid. I’ll help you. Ordinary people can’t find out the information about the residents in Villa No. 1 at North Court. Don't worry!"Jocelyn suddenly looked up at Skyler and asked in a confused an
Chapter 409Then he turned around, closed the door for Jocelyn and left.Staring at the door, Jocelyn felt upset. ‘I shouldn’t have any expectations of him.’When it came to Skyler, she seemed to be experiencing a seesaw battle. At this second, she told herself it was impossible that Skyler liked her. But the next second, she guessed that he should like her, as he was so considerate to her.But a wave of disappointment came over her when Skyler admitted what he had done for her was just because she was his nominal wife. Moreover, she couldn’t even register her upset.With the pillow in her hand, Jocelyn lay on her side on the bed. She looked blank and empty while dwelling on the cyber violence and Skyler's face. Jocelyn didn't fall asleep even if midnight came.She turned on the light and lay flat, staring at nothingness.At this moment, someone sent a message to her, and her phone dinged.Jocelyn didn't want to look at the phone, but the phone dinged again.She reached out
Chapter 410Rhode gained 5 million more followers overnight, and her popularity increased a lot.But her popularity was boosted by staining Jocelyn’s reputation.Even people’s opinion of Lily was reversed because of Jocelyn’s fierceness. It seemed that after Jocelyn scolded Rhode in the show, Jocelyn was wrong in everything related to her.No other topics were more heated than the topic about Jocelyn at 10 in the morning the following day after the show was broadcast. People were passionately discussing the plagiarism of Jocelyn and Lily, their relationship, and Jocelyn’s hostility towards Rhode.Some people argued that the show was partial to Rhode, so it naturally wronged Jocelyn.After all, it was rumored that Skyler was Rhode’s boyfriend, and Skyler was exactly the investor of Beauty Busters.As the situation couldn’t be controlled and many people were criticizing Jocelyn, Rhode sent a message to Skyler.“President Moore, I don’t learn that Jocelyn is being scolded until
Chapter 411Yale replied in an extremely serious tone, "I have prepared everything. The production team will release the unedited video. Then I will arrange for major influencers in the showbiz to share the video. As long as we take advantage of the clout, people will pay attention to the whole context of the incident!"Skyler nodded. "It's time to release the video. Ask the production team to act!"He hung up after he finished speaking.Last night, he told Yale his plan and asked Yale to call the production team and negotiate with them. The production team needed to take out the whole unedited video of the confrontation between Jocelyn and Rhode and release it online. Otherwise, Skyler would withdraw his investment and take over their company!Almost all the people in Mauve City's showbiz knew how powerful Skyler was.The production team didn't doubt Skyler's words at all and thus agreed on Skyler's request last night.After the latest episode of the show was released, all the
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
