Chapter 446'Jocelyn gives the flowers to me?'He felt surprised and stared at the white hyacinths from Jocelyn.Suddenly, he stubbed out his cigarette in the ashtray on the table. Then he stood up, went to the bathroom to wash his hands, put on some perfume and smelled himself. He didn't walk out and pick up the white hyacinths until there was no smell of the cigarette on his body.When he gently stared at the white hyacinths on the table, the coldness and irritation in his eyes had disappeared already. He felt that each bud was so lovely.He picked the flowers up and smiled brightly. 'Today is Couple's Day, and Jocelyn gives me the flowers.''Although she went out to have dinner with Abel, I'm willing to forgive her generously because she gives me the flowers.'He couldn't help but smile. He smelled the light fragrance of the flowers and then smelled his sleeves. 'Luckily, I have washed my hands, and the flowers haven't taken on the odor of the cigarette.'He smiled happily a
Chapter 447Skyler said as he glanced at the housekeeper. To the housekeeper's surprise, he saw proudness in Skyler's eyes. It was rare for Skyler.The housekeeper suddenly understood why Skyler was in a good mood.The housekeeper was smart. He said with a smile, "It turns out that Mrs. Moore gave it to you. No wonder the bunch of flowers looks so beautiful! When I see it, it makes me feel refreshed!"To be honest, the housekeeper was too exaggerated.But Skyler nodded in agreement. "You have a good taste!"The housekeeper was stuck for words.'When one falls in love, one will become stupid.'The housekeeper thought it over and said, "Mr. Moore, are you hungry? Would you like to have something? I will arrange for someone to prepare it for you!"Hearing that, Skyler stopped arranging flowers and glanced at the housekeeper. "I asked you to clear up the roses. Where did you throw them?"The housekeeper said resignedly, "The garbage truck took it away!"Skyler said that he would
Chapter 448Thinking of that, Skyler felt happy. 'When Jocelyn had dinner with Abel, she didn't eat much after the dishes were served. She left the restaurant soon!'Looking at Skyler, Jocelyn felt surprised. "What do you want to give me?"He put down his hands, reached out his hand and wanted to touch her.She stepped backward subconsciously and stared at him warily. "What do you want to do?"She didn't forget that he was moody. Although she liked him, she had to admit that he had a bad temper!He didn't mind her reaction and smiled. "Your hair is a little messy, so I would like to tidy it for you!"She looked at him in surprise. 'Why is he so strange today?'She frowned. "You haven't answered my question yet. What do you want to give me?"Seeing the sunflowers in her room, he chuckled. "You gave me the flowers. I would like to treat you to night snacks. How is it?"She fell into a trance. "OK!"She had gotten the answer. 'He planned to have dinner with me tonight, so he be
Chapter 449Jim repeated resignedly. "I'm asking you where you got the white hyacinths. You even have posted it on your Instagram. It's rare for you! Besides, I remember that you have prepared the red roses and blue roses that were shipped to Mauve City by air."Jim remembered that Skyler planned to express his feelings to Jocelyn among the red roses and blue roses. Skyler was afraid that Jocelyn would feel uneasy, so he chose to express his feelings to her at home.Skyler snorted proudly, "Jocelyn gave the white hyacinths to me. I have thrown the red roses and blue roses away. I will win her heart even without the flashy roses!"Jim was surprised. When he saw Skyler's Instagram story, he had felt strange. Hearing that Jocelyn had given the white hyacinths to Skyler, Jim understood something immediately.Jim asked in a gossipy tone, "Did Jocelyn buy the white hyacinths for you especially?"Skyler snorted, "Of course, she bought them for me especially. If there is nothing specia
Chapter 450[Davis: Mr. Moore, is this the vase that you bought in the auction when we were abroad two years ago?][Skyler: Yes, it is.][Davis: ...][Jim: It's amazing! The flowers are only worth dozens of dollars while the vase is worth hundreds of millions of dollars! I cannot understand it!][Skyler: Shut up! No one will think you're dumb even if you keep silent!][Jim: You even don't allow me to tell you the truth. To be honest, the bunch of flowers will be more beautiful in a vase that is worth ten dollars!][Skyler: Do you have a death wish?][Jim: Alright, I will shut up! Don't be angry with me!]When Jocelyn saw these comments, her feelings were complicated. 'He has arranged the bunch of flowers in such a valuable vase?'She stared at the photo on her phone for a while and didn't know how to describe her feelings.At that moment, Skyler called her outside the door again, "Jocelyn, come out to have night snacks!"She fell into a trance, calmed down and walked toward
Chapter 451Jocelyn's heart pounded slightly. 'It is a candlelight dinner!'Skyler really surprised her this evening.Jocelyn walked to the table and her eyes were already drawn to the dinner, which was simple and fresh French food, including French foie gras, steak, and leg of lamb.She said, "It looks quite appetizing!"Skyler said proudly, "I made it myself!"Jocelyn turned her head and looked at him in surprise, "Really?"Hearing her words, Skyler suddenly thought of something and said seriously, "Yes. This is not the first time I've cooked for you!"Jocelyn suddenly remembered Skyler had cooked a meal for her the night she went to have dinner with Walter at Tingo Restaurant. At that time, she and Skyler were not very close.But when she returned home, the meal had already gotten cold.Jocelyn laughed without saying anything.Skyler didn't say anything either. He had already prepared the red wine. At this time, he poured a glass of red wine for Jocelyn, "Here you are.
Chapter 452His forehead veins throbbed. "He told you how he felt about you?"Jocelyn nodded and took a bite of her steak as if she hadn't seen Skyler get angry. "Yes, but I refused him."Skyler gripped the cutlery in his hand and made it creak, his chest heaving. It seemed that he was furious.Jocelyn gave him a casual look. "Why don't you eat? I'm not with him. Do you have to act like a cuckold?"Skyler's eyes were red. "I don't allow him to do that!"Jocelyn put down her cutlery and looked at Skyler calmly. "Really? Why?"She had a vague feeling that Skyler was not that indifferent to her.When she gave him a bouquet, he showed more than the usual joy. And when she was to have dinner with him, he cooked for her, not like the cold and conceited Skyler.So her words were intentional. She admitted that she was provoking Skyler.She wanted Skyler to face her honestly. Perhaps she was looking forward to Skyler telling her his true feelings.When Skyler saw Jocelyn's calm gaze,
Chapter 453Jocelyn was very happy as if she was dancing in the carnival, but when she thought of Skyler's cold and uncertain attitude, she didn't want to let Skyler pass easily. She looked up at Skyler with a stiff face on purpose and said calmly, "Skyler, I really didn’t see your feelings for me, and you asked me not to..." Skyler closed his eyes slightly with a headache and interrupted her, "Jocelyn, don't mention that again! If I knew that I would like you so much, I would rather go back and kill myself at that time!" It was the first time that Jocelyn heard Skyler talking like this, so she couldn't hold back a chuckle, but she still tried to control her expression and finally didn’t let Skyler see her change in emotions. ‘He is too conceited and domineering.’ ‘If he says he doesn't like me, then I can't like him? If he says he likes me, then I have to like him?' ‘Today, I have to teach him a lesson.’ Jocelyn looked at Skyler without expression and did not say a word.
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
