Chapter 613Jocelyn remembered that she had planned to go to Skyler at the party, but unexpectedly, she saw the scene in which Josie took Skyler's arm with tears in her eyes.Although she couldn't hear what Josie had said to Skyler due to the far distance, she could easily guess Josie's identity when recalling Yvie's words.The woman who stood Skyler up at the Civil Affairs Bureau was no one but Josie.She still believed in Skyler, but she felt so bad upon realizing that he had held the truth from her.It was because she cared so much about him that she was overwhelmed with sadness now.Seeing Jocelyn like this, Skyler suddenly panicked. He held her tightly in his arms, rested his forehead against hers and whispered, "Baby, Josie is my ex-girlfriend. I didn't tell you before, because I was afraid you would think too much. I didn't expect Josie to suddenly return home. I will tell you anything you want to know, so don't be sad, okay?"Jocelyn pursed her lips tightly. Her eyes had
Chapter 614When hearing this, Skyler froze for a few seconds.Seeing his surprised expression, Jocelyn quickly said, "I just said this casually. After all, only you, Josie and Abel knew about that incident back then. If Josie was the victim, she had every reason to do so. Of course, this is just my guess, so don't think too much!"Skyler frowned, and after a long time, he said, "Maybe your guess is reasonable. Josie is really ruthless, and since she was bullied by Dean and his friends, I have tried my best to make up for her all these years!"Skyler's expression was somewhat gloomy. "Although I have no special feelings for her, I promised to be with her, and I helped her a lot in her career development as a designer, but she is still not satisfied!"Hearing Skyler's words, Jocelyn pressed her lips tightly without a word.Skyler looked down at her, and he guessed she must be feeling sad again.He quickly explained, "Even if I was kind to her, my starting point is to make compens
Chapter 615Jocelyn took a look at her, and she didn't want to continue pretending to be nice to Josie. She said in a neither high nor low voice, "You don't need to expect me to like it. After all, I dare not risk my own life. Who knows if this perfume is poisonous or not?"After Jocelyn said this, she raised her eyebrows and glanced at Josie. "Am I right, Josie?"The smile on Josie's face froze.There were only a few people in the design department now. Even if others could hear their voices, it was impossible for them to hear their conversation clearly.Josie pressed her lips and asked, "How much do you know?"Jocelyn leaned back in her chair with a straight face and glanced at her. "I know everything I need to know!"Josie smiled. "Really? Do you know that Skyler only views you as my substitute?"Jocelyn sneered, "You should know best whether I am your substitute or not."Josie's face changed. "Jocelyn, I didn't expect you to be so eloquent! Our names are so similar, and yo
Chapter 616All the people heard what the receptionist had said.Josie stood up with a smile. "Got it!"She smoothed her hair back, smiled and glanced at Jocelyn complacently. Then she twisted her waist charmingly as she walked outside.Seeing that, the people in the design department couldn't help but whisper."Oh my God! Josie is really something. As soon as she comes back, the magazine will interview her and Mr. Moore together. I'm so jealous of her!""It's not surprising. After all, she has become famous for so many years. In the company, only she is qualified to accept the exclusive interview with Mr. Moore!""By the way, do you think Jocelyn will be angry that Josie will accept the exclusive interview with Mr. Moore conspicuously?""Be angry? She is not that narrow-minded!""Not really. I heard that Josie and Mr. Moore founded Prosperity Jewelry together and had an unusual relationship!"Jocelyn didn't care about Josie's provocation but cared that Skyler and Josie would
Chapter 617Skyler asked the editor, Vivian Bronson, who was from Fashion City Magazine, in a deep voice, "What's going on?"Vivian glanced at Josie and didn't notice that Skyler had become angry. She said with a smile, "This is Josie Sonnet, a jewelry designer. It's said that she once worked in Prosperity Jewelry. We invited her to give an exclusive interview with you when she was still abroad. Unexpectedly, she works in Prosperity Jewelry again after she returns home. You two will appear in the same issue of our magazine, so I ask her to go upstairs to give the interview with you together. Mr. Moore, you will agree, right?"Skyler looked at Vivian with a poker face. "What if I don't agree?"The smile on Vivian's face froze.Josie said with a smile, "Skyler, don't be like that. Vivian has been frightened by you!"Then she looked at Vivian. "Vivian, please don't take it to heart. Skyler is just like that. When I worked with him, he always liked to make jokes with a poker face. He
Chapter 618When Jocelyn was staring at a design draft in a daze, Yvie held her phone and rushed towards Jocelyn excitedly."Jocelyn, look at my phone. You will be happy about that! I'm Mr. Moore's fan!"Seeing that Yvie was so excited, Jocelyn asked with a smile, "What has happened?"Yvie handed her phone to Jocelyn. "Have a look at these chat records!"Jocelyn wasn't in the gossipy chat group. Yvie showed the chat records in the group to Jocelyn immediately.[The First Secretary: Mr. Moore is so masculine. He was afraid that Jocelyn would be unhappy if he gave the exclusive interview with Josie, so he pulled a long face and drove Josie out in front of the editor, Vivian. Josie almost burst into tears in anger. To be honest, I was shocked at that time!][Secretary Sienna: I was also there and witnessed the scene where Mr. Moore lost his temper. Josie came to give the interview excitedly but left awkwardly. It was so shocking!][Zoya of the design department: Is it true that Jo
Chapter 619Skyler nodded. "It's true. I hid the fact that I've been married!"Originally, Vivian thought that Skyler was single and would like to talk about his current relationship. To Vivian's surprise, before the interview, he drove Josie out because he was afraid that his wife would be unhappy.Thus, Vivian mentioned Skyler's wife wisely.Vivian added. "To be honest, the readers and I are all curious about how long you have gotten married."He said in a deep voice, "Five months and eight days!"Vivian was surprised. "You remember it so clearly!"He glanced at her. "I remember everything about my wife clearly!"Vivian's gaze became complicated. "It's obvious that you love your wife very much. Can you talk about your wife with us?"When he heard that, a trace of gentleness flashed through his eyes. "My wife is very nice and very excellent. I love her very much!"Vivian was surprised. She didn't expect him to use three "very" to answer her question.She could feel his deep
Chapter 620At night, Snow was at home.After Josie left the company in the morning, she went to Snow's home directly. Josie was in a bad mood and locked herself in the room for the whole day. She didn't walk out until Snow called her to have dinner at night. When Josie walked out, her eyes were red from crying.When they had dinner, Snow asked her, "What has happened today? Why did you cry?"Although Snow was Josie's cousin, Snow knew that Josie looked down upon her because she was just an adopted daughter of the Sonnet family. Also, Snow was able to become Walter's fiancée all because of the family background of the Sonnet family.Josie was related to the Sonnet family by blood. Even if Josie was just Marcel's niece, Snow had always fulfilled Josie's requirements since Josie was just a kid.After Josie heard Snow's concerned words, Josie's eyes turned red immediately. "Let's talk about it after dinner!"Seeing that, Snow stopped asking.After dinner, Josie was about to return
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
