Chapter 596Mimi sounded like she had gotten away from the crowd. It was quieter on the other end of the line. Mimi spoke in a tired voice, "I came to see Director Claude, and I just happened to spot the incident. You don't know how outrageous these people are! The patient’s family hired a bunch of hooligans to carry banners and urged the hospital to take responsibility. They're just a bunch of jerks! Director Claude talked to them for hours, but they wouldn't accept his explanation. Now the incident is at a standstill!"Jocelyn frowned, "Didn't the hospital call the police?"Mimi sighed helplessly, "They did. But the police couldn't do anything. These punks were here yesterday. When they heard that the hospital was going to call the police, they left immediately, so the hospital didn't call the police. However, today they came again.""I heard from Director Claude that these people are very difficult to deal with. Even if the hospital called the police, those punks wouldn't spend
Chapter 597Listening to Jocelyn's analysis, Zayn frowned.He had been dealing with the family for a few days, but he never thought about it in this way. Now after hearing Jocelyn's analysis, he also felt things were strange.Jocelyn's eyes twinkled, and she said, "It's about lunchtime. Have someone book a restaurant and invite the patient's family to have a talk. Tell them you want to negotiate with them. See if they'll come. If they do, try to find out what's going on. I don't think it's that simple!"Zayn's eyes darkened, and he nodded, "Okay, I'm going to do it. I'll have someone ask the patient's family if they want to have a talk!"Jocelyn nodded.Zayn sent someone to ask the patient's family and called to book a restaurant.After a while, a doctor came into Zayn's office and reported, "They agreed to go to the restaurant, but they invited another person, the patient's brother's boss!"Zayn frowned, "This is between the hospital and the patient's family. Why would they in
Chapter 598Jocelyn, Zayn, and Mimi went into one of the private rooms in the restaurant. After a while, the patient's family arrived, along with the patient's brother's boss.A doctor took them into the room. The doctor then walked over to Zayn and sat down next to him.The patient's family surrounded the patient's brother's boss, like the man was the boss of them all.The man was wearing a gold chain around his neck. He had a round stomach.He sat down at the head of the table, looked rather bossy, and he asked, "Introduce everyone here to me! Otherwise, I don't know any of them!"The patient's brother, Josh Rubio, hurriedly stood up and said with a flattering smile, "Mr. Henderson, you know everyone in my family. Let me introduce you to the doctors!"He then introduced the man to the doctors, "This is Mr. Henderson, my boss!"Josh looked at Zayn and the others with grim faces and warned, "Today Mr. Henderson is here to witness our negotiations. If you don't keep your promise
Chapter 599Zayn's face immediately clouded over. "Are you out of your mind? We are here to negotiate with you, and this is not a club! You better be serious!"Josh sneered, "What? Director Claude, are you trying to irritate us? If you are, your hospital's reputation will be ruined! Watch your speech!"At that moment, the other doctor received a message. His face changed color dramatically. He turned to Zayn and whispered, "Director Claude, things are out of control. Many of our patients want to get out of the hospital. Even patients who have just had a car accident and are not fit to move around want to leave. They are concerned with our doctors’ proficiency!"The rumors went viral, and people began to believe them.Zayn looked at Josh with a stern face, "Are your men still in the hospital?"Josh took a sip of wine and replied, "Of course. We haven't reached an agreement, have we?"Zayn exploded with rage, "Do you think there's nothing I can do?"Josh shrugged indifferently a
Chapter 600Before Jocelyn could say anything, Mimi burst out laughing like she had heard the most hilarious joke, "Jocelyn, did I get it wrong? This guy said you're lucky to have him set his eyes on you. Does he know who your husband is?"Jocelyn shook her head and said with a sincere face, "I guess he doesn't. Otherwise, he wouldn't dare say those words to me!"Jocelyn then glanced at Jaden, "Excuse me, what's your name?"Before Jaden could answer the question, Josh interjected, "This is Mr. Jaden Henderson. I bet you've all heard of him. He owns the Seafood Market in Mauve City! And he owns a chain of seafood restaurants in the City!"Jocelyn gave a contempt look and responded, "Jaden Henderson? Sorry, I’ve never heard of this name!"Jaden was surprised that Jocelyn and Mimi didn't show him any respect after learning his name.Then he thought about what Mimi had said earlier, so he became a little hesitant inside. He asked in a rough voice, ‘You guys didn't show any respect t
Chapter 601Jocelyn's hand, which had curled into a fist, froze.She looked down and found that the object having hit Jaden was a black phone, whose model seemed to be the same as Skyler's phone model.Jocelyn looked back and saw Skyler, who appeared at the door of the room with an angry expression.Jocelyn felt nervous, as she could sense that Skyler was angry. ‘What should I do?’Skyler walked in with anger.Staring at Jaden expressionlessly, he uttered in a cold tone, "Did you want to touch her just now?"Jaden was shocked, as Skyler hit him accurately with his phone just now.However, Jaden regained his calmness. ‘Who is this man? How dare he come in without knocking on the door?’He straightened up and looked at Skyler. "I did want to touch her, but it’s none of your business. Who are you? Don't meddle in it! Otherwise, I’ll teach you a lesson."Jaden was about to touch Jocelyn's arm again.At the sight of it, Skyler darkened his face. He took several steps forward and
Chapter 602Skyler's eyes flashed, and he immediately understood what Jocelyn meant.He spoke indifferently, "As you planned to touch my wife with your right hand just now, I'll dislocate your right arm. Do you mind it?"Skyler’s voice was toneless, as if he had been talking about the weather today.Jaden's face turned pale all of a sudden. "President Moore... I..."Skyler shouted at the door. "Willa, Wilmer, come in!"A man and a woman came into the room, both of whom were dressed in black. People could see at a glance that they were bodyguards.Skyler took a glance at Wilmer. "Dislocate his right arm!"Wilmer stepped forward quickly. Though Jaden struggled fiercely, with a crack, Jaden cried out in pain.Skyler ignored Jaden’s crying and asked, "Tell me. Why do you support the Rubio family in causing trouble? If you keep silent, I’ll dislocate your left arm!"As Skyler had Wilmer dislocate his arm without hesitation, Jaden was really frightened. He knew that Skyler was seri
Chapter 603Jocelyn nodded. Skyler took her towards the door domineeringly.As Jocelyn walked, she waved Mimi goodbye.After stepping out of the Seashore Restaurant, Jocelyn found Willa and Wilmer were still behind. She tugged Skyler’s arm and asked, "The two of them..."Skyler took a glance at Wilmer and Willa behind and explained, "They’re bodyguards I arranged for to protect you!"Jocelyn opened her mouth. "Well, no need. Don’t... don’t bother.”Skyler turned to stare fixedly at Jocelyn. "I don't want the incident to repeat itself. The wound on the back of your head hasn’t been healed, but you still go out. Do you think I’ll feel relieved if I don’t ask some people to protect you?"Jocelyn curled her lips, without uttering a word.She had mixed feelings. On the one hand, she felt awkward when people followed her.But on the other hand, she knew that Skyler cared much about her, so he gave her two bodyguards.Skyler could read her mind and spoke tenderly, "You don't have to
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
