Chapter 716After leaving the remark, Avery turned to leave.However, the beautiful woman he had just taunted spoke up.Jocelyn spoke in fluent French, "I heard earlier that all Foranee men were gentlemen, but after meeting you today, I am surprised. I see Foranee men are not all gentlemen. I really don't understand why you are taunting others to bring out yourself on such an occasion. I'm wondering, are you ignorant or just stupid? Sir, you’d better stay at home. Don't ruin the reputation of Foranee men!"Skyler came over. He was going to defend Jocelyn. He was surprised to hear Jocelyn speak such fluent French.Skyler's eyes lit up instantly.Jocelyn always surprised him whenever he felt he was so in love with her, which made him love her even more.Jocelyn was like a treasure and there was so much in her that he wanted to explore.Since Jocelyn could handle it herself, Skyler didn't say anything. He stood by silently and supported Jocelyn.Avery was surprised that Jocelyn c
Chapter 717Walter snapped, "You know what I'm talking about. That foreign guy is your friend. I saw you bring him in when the party started. Josie, don't deny it. I know more than you think I do. You thought Jocelyn couldn’t speak French, so you let your friend embarrass her. You wanted her to be humiliated in front of people. But you didn't expect her to speak fluent French!"Josie's face turned pale and she denied it bluntly, "Even if I knew Avery, so what? I had nothing to do with this. Please don't blame it on me, OK? Don’t forget. We have made a deal earlier to break up Jocelyn and Skyler. You will have Jocelyn, and I will have Skyler. What? Now you haven’t got Jocelyn, but you're starting to defend her?"Walter knew Josie wouldn’t admit it. He just wanted to give Josie a warning.Walter asked, "What do you think they are? Are there any objects that we can keep for ourselves? I'm out of my mind to have agreed with you. I'm not like you!"Walter couldn't bear to hurt Skyler a
Chapter 718However, Jocelyn felt that when a woman found a man adorable, her love would be no cure for.In Jocelyn's eyes, Skyler was like a child. He was domineering and unreasonable, but he loved you so much that it filled your heart with tenderness, and you could never be angry with him.After the party, Skyler took Jocelyn home.As soon as they entered the front door, Skyler pushed Jocelyn against the door and kissed her passionately.Jocelyn's body went soft. She pushed Skyler in the chest and murmured, "Skyler!"Skyler carried Jocelyn up in his arms and went upstairs.As soon as they got into the bedroom, Skyler pushed Jocelyn against the door again and began kissing her.Jocelyn couldn't stop him. His kiss moved along her chin and reached Jocelyn's ear, and he gently kissed the tip of her ear.Skyler whispered, "Baby!"Jocelyn blushed and did not answer him. Skyler continued, "My wife!"Jocelyn tried to push him away with shyness. Skyler whispered again in a husky vo
Chapter 719Jocelyn chuckled, "Are you going to hear it or not?"Skyler smiled, tenderness in his voice. "Yes. Please go on!""I think French is romantic, so I want to learn it. Walter happened to be able to speak French, so he taught me. When I was in high school, I could speak simple French, and Walter and I often talked to each other in French. When I was in college, I had a part-time job translating some documents into French. When I did the translation, I looked up a lot of information and vocabulary, so my French improved even more!"At Jocelyn's words, Josie clenched her hands. ‘No wonder Jocelyn is so fluent in French! That's it! I'll be more careful with her in the future. '"You are incredible!" Skyler exclaimed with pride."Yes, few women are as smart and hardworking as I am. You must hold on to me!"Skyler laughed. "I'll never let you go!"Suddenly, Skyler complained, "Baby, but I'm jealous!"Jocelyn chuckled. "I didn't want to tell you. I knew you'd be jealous, bu
Chapter 720Yet not surprisingly, Walter rejected her with no expression on his face, "But I don't love you. I'm sorry!"Marcel's face clouded over. "That’s enough! Snow, I have told you that a decent person never gets behind people's backs since you were small. Do you even remember my words?"Snow burst into tears. She had shed the most tears in the last few days since she was a little girl.She looked at Marcel with tears in her eyes and yelled, "If I don't love him, I will never do that!"However, Walter was determined. "Uncle Marcel, the engagement was made between you and my parents. My parents told me that if I were to break it off, I would have to take responsibility and come to you personally to apologize. I'm sorry. I can't marry Snow. I hope you can understand!"Walter was sincere, and Marcel knew the young man was a man of integrity, so he didn't give Walter a hard time.Marcel nodded, "All right, I understand. The engagement is off!"Walter nodded with gratitude, "T
Chapter 721Marcel didn't expect Snow to ask him such a question.Thinking of his love for Georgina, he thought that Snow's parents would have the same feelings as him. "If they go to look for you, it must be because they love you. As for why they abandoned you, they must have their own difficulties. No parents have the heart to abandon their children!"Snow laughed at herself and said, "No parents have the heart to abandon their children? It's because you haven't seen that!"Marcel frowned. "What has happened to you? Even if you can't be with Walter, I will find a man you like and worthy of you!"At that time, Georgina suddenly went downstairs. "Dad, Snow, what are you talking about?"Snow stood up immediately. Thinking that she was in a sorry state, she rushed to the restroom on the first floor. "Dad, I would like to touch up my foundation!"After she finished speaking, she left in a hurry.When she arrived at the restroom and thought of Marcel's words, she knew that Marcel w
Chapter 722"What are you doing? How can you throw so many fruits away? You're too wasteful! After you get married, you won't be a good wife!"Jocelyn was surprised but didn't take it seriously.However, when she stepped forward, she heard Lexie's cold voice. "I throw those grapes away because they've rotted and are inedible. I know that I'm a big spender and won't be a good wife. Thus, I won't marry Davis. Don't worry!"After Jocelyn heard that, her face was overcast with anger.Undoubtedly, the woman, who was scolding Lexie, was Davis' mother.Jocelyn couldn't help but clench her fists. She even had the impulse to beat Davis' mother up!But Jocelyn couldn't. After all, Davis' mother was an elder. Jocelyn couldn't act recklessly, but she still felt angry that Lexie was being bullied by Davis' mother!In the restroom, when Davis' mother heard Lexie's words, she bristled with rage. "What? You won't marry my son? My son almost died to save you, but you say that you're reluctant t
Chapter 723Davis' mother was terrified by Jocelyn. She stepped back and walked outside quickly. "Lexie, you little bitch! I will go to tell my son that you bullied me with your friend!"After she finished speaking, she left the restroom anxiously and ran away.Lexie washed the grapes resignedly. "Thank you, Jocelyn!"Jocelyn glanced at her. "Don't you blame me for arguing with her?"Lexie faced the mirror and laughed at herself. "How can I blame you? What you did is for my own good!"Jocelyn sighed slightly. "I didn't expect Davis' mother to be like that!"Lexie compressed her lips. "She gradually becomes like that after their family had the accident!"Jocelyn understood Lexie's meaning.'Lang is Davis' mother's last name. He has taken his mother's last name since their family's fortunes declined.'Davis' mother must have suffered from a terrible strike at that time!'Jocelyn shook her head resignedly. "She's poor, but I still can't stand seeing you being bullied by her! Sh
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
