Chapter 629

Fred stared at Elyse with a grim face. "Are you happy now? I told you not to ask Jocelyn to lend money to Marcelo. She has worked hard to earn the money. You have nothing to do with it. How did you take care of Jocelyn after Grace died? Tell me!"

Elyse glared at Fred. "Even though I didn't take care of her, I'm her aunt. Was I wrong to ask her to lend some money to Marcelo? She's a girl. What does she need so much money for? She doesn't have any other brothers. Shouldn't she help Marcelo out?"

Fred’s face reddened with anger. He argued, "Elyse, don't be so greedy! Don't plan on Jocelyn's money!"

Abruptly, Marcelo stood up. He swept his plate to the floor and yelled, "That's enough! Why are you quarrelling over Jocelyn? If she won't lend me the money, that's fine! I can start my business without her help!" After that, Marcelo swept out of the dining room in a rage.

Jocelyn was a kind girl after all. After coming downstairs, she felt regret. She was worried that Elyse w

    Chapter 630Such a surprise cheered Jocelyn up.She reached out and threw her arms around Skyler's neck and whispered, "I'm so happy you're back! I'm so surprised! Weren't you supposed to come back tomorrow?"Skyler smiled tenderly. He pressed his forehead against Jocelyn's and said, "Yeah, I was supposed to come back tomorrow, but I finished what I hve to do tomorrow today and left the rest to Yale. He didn't come back with me. I miss you so much! I can't wait to see you!"Jocelyn immediately blushed. "Do you miss me so much?"Skyler stared into Jocelyn's eyes, his eyes so deep they seemed to drown Jocelyn. "What do you think?"Jocelyn was entranced in Skyler's gaze, and Skyler looked down and started kissing her.Jocelyn had always been shy. When she realized Skyler was carrying her upstairs, her face blushed more. "What are you doing?"Skyler whispered something in her ear, and Jocelyn pushed his chest and complained, "It's daytime!"Skyler gave a wicked smile and said in a

    Chapter 631Jocelyn replied in a muffled voice, "It’s nothing. Forget about it!"Skyler frowned. He still wanted to ask. But Jocelyn changed the subject, "Skyler, I'm hungry, very, very hungry. Let's go downstairs for dinner!"Skyler shook his head resignedly and kissed her ear. "OK. Let's go downstairs for dinner!"During the meal, Jocelyn tried to find something to talk about to make Skyler forget about the previous topic.Just after they finished eating, Jocelyn's cell phone rang.It was Jocelyn's uncle. Jocelyn hesitated for two seconds, but she answered it anyway.However, after Jocelyn picked it up, she found on the other end of the line, it was not her uncle, but her aunt, Elyse.Elyse sounded as if she had completely forgotten the unpleasant lunch. She asked with laughter, "Jocelyn, have you had dinner yet?"Jocelyn was confused, and she frowned, "Yes, I had. What's the matter?"Elyse laughed cheerfully, "Here's the thing. I heard from your uncle that you wanted to i

    Chapter 632Skyler was much more sophisticated than Jocelyn, and he had dealt with more unpleasant things.He reached out, rubbed Jocelyn's hair, and whispered, "Since you don't like her, don't talk to her. She invited us to lunch. Do you want to go?"Jocelyn blinked. She looked at Skyler and replied, "I don't want to go. But I don't want to embarrass my uncle!"Skyler's eyes clouded over. "Then we'll go. I can use this opportunity to talk to your aunt! She shouldn't ask so much from you!"Jocelyn hesitated, but finally, she nodded, "Okay. I'll tell Elyse we'll have lunch with them tomorrow!"Skyler nodded and didn't say anything else....The next day, when Jocelyn and Skyler arrived at Seashore Restaurant, the Cooke family was already there.When Jocelyn and Skyler entered the restaurant, Elyse immediately gave a bright smile, "Jocelyn, finally you're here! Come on over here!"Elyse was beaming with joy. She had never imagined that one day their family would be related to S

    Chapter 633Marcelo's face looked sullen. He exclaimed in disappointment, "What? Just a junior clerk?!"Skyler's eyes cooled, and he asked rhetorically, "What else? If I offered you a manager's position, would you be up to it?"Marcelo's face reddened. "I'm not that ambitious. I'm just wondering if the junior position is too low for me."Skyler glanced at him nonchalantly and sneered, "So many people want to join Prosperity Jewelry every year! I didn't realize you thought a junior position was too low for you. I've heard... you don't know much about the jewelry business, so I can't appoint you as a supervisor. You can't win the support of your team members. That would affect the company’s operations. Can you take responsibility?"Marcelo had nothing to say, so he remained silent.Elyse was worried that Marcelo had offended Skyler, so she frowned at Marcelo and scolded, "You stupid boy! You should be grateful to Mr. Moore for giving you a job. How can you ask for anything else? Mr

    Chapter 634Josie didn't expect this woman to be related to Jocelyn. She pretended she was surprised and exclaimed, "Prosperity Jewelry!"Elyse immediately lifted her chin. "Now you know who you've offended!"Josie immediately opened her handbag and took out a small purse. She emptied the purse, handed it to Elyse, and said, "This is the latest Gucci purse. I've only used it once. I'll give it to you as compensation, OK?"Josie put on a smile and watched Elyse's expression.Elyse's eyes lit up. She took the purse straight away. "You're not that stupid! All right! I'll take it. I forgive you! Now, excuse me!"Josie called out to her and asked with deliberate hesitation, "Is the CEO of Prosperity Jewelry really your niece's hunsband?"Looking at Josie's skeptical face, Elyse immediately frowned and asked, "What? You don't believe me?"Josie shook her head, "It's not that I don't believe you. But I am a designer for Prosperity Jewelry. I've known Mr. Moore for years. But I've neve

    Chapter 635Hearing Elyse call his name, Skyler frowned. He didn’t have a good impression of Elyse. He wasn't interested in the people Elyse mentioned. After all, they didn't have any mutual friends.However, before Elyse could say anything more, a girl with a big smile on her face entered the room behind Elyse, and Jocelyn's face immediately froze.Skyler noticed Jocelyn froze, so he looked up.Immediately, his face darkened as well.Elyse didn't realize there was anything wrong. She smiled and asked Skyler and Jocelyn, "What? You guys don't know her?"Elyse believed that Josie must know Skyler and Jocelyn, otherwise she wouldn't have dared to come and meet them.But now, Elyse was confused.Before Jocelyn and Skyler could answer Elyse, Josie interjected with a smile, "Of course, they know me!Jocelyn didn't want her uncle to know what had happened between her and Josie before, so she introduced Fred in a cold voice, "Uncle, this is Josie from the design department of our com

    Chapter 636Skyler gently held Jocelyn's hand under the table, calmly saying, "Mr. Cooke, Jocelyn and I do not have a good relationship with this woman. I don’t know why Mrs. Cooke brought such a person to disturb our dinner. I have lost my appetite. Another day, Jocelyn and I will treat you to dinner!" After hearing Skyler’s words, Fred looked at Josie's angry face and then saw her resentful gaze to Jocelyn. He stood up and nodded, "I don't want to eat either. Let's leave together." Elyse sat there until Jocelyn and Skyler left with Fred. She glared at Josie, "You didn't tell me that you have a bad relationship with them!" Josie replied, "You didn't ask me!" Elyse was mad, "You are hurting my relationship with them!" Marcelo, who had been staring at Josie and was reluctant to leave, could not help saying, "Mom, it is clearly Skyler who makes trouble for Miss Sonnet. How can you blame Miss Sonnet?" Elyse was so angry that she almost hit his son with the spoon, "You don’t

    Chapter 637Skyler did not like Walter's attitude, so he pulled Jocelyn behind him to block Walter's gaze, "Have you had lunch? If you have, then I won't keep you! Jocelyn and I are going to have lunch." Before Walter could answer, Camille said pitifully, "Skyla, Walt and I came here to invite you and Jocelyn to have lunch. Unexpectedly, you were not at home. The housekeeper said you will be back soon, so we have been waiting for you!" Skyler suddenly looked at Camille, which scared Camille and immediately made her silent. Skyler withdrew his gaze and then calmly looked at Walter, "Walter, since you haven't eaten, let's eat together. I have something to talk about with you. How about we go upstairs to the study?" Walter nodded and took a look at Camille, "Camille, I have something to talk about with Skyler. You can chat with Jocelyn downstairs!" Camille secretly took a look at Skyler and nodded obediently. As soon as Skyler entered the study, his handsome face sank, "Walter

    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.

I can pack my stuff!"Skyler raised his eyebrows. "I know you can do this, but I want to

"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
