Chapter 782Jim and Skyler were good friends, so Lexie believed that Jim must have known Jocelyn was at her home!Jim smiled in embarrassment. "I just would like to get to know the situation first!"Lexie came straight to the point. "Go ahead. What do you want?"Jim cleared his throat. "Skyler and I would like to invite Jocelyn and you to have dinner with us tonight!"Lexie asked, "Where?"Jim didn't react for a moment. "What?"He was surprised by her. He thought that she would refuse him, so he had prepared the lines to persuade her. Also, he had made up his mind to call her nonstop if she rejected his calls. He even had planned to wait for her in front of her door.However, she asked him for the address directly. It was out of his prediction indeed.Lexie felt annoyed. "I'm asking you where we will have dinner together!"Jim was incoherent with excitement. "Virtue Restaurant! The time is up to you! We're available at any time!"Lexie laughed at them in her heart. 'Two idio
Chapter 783Skyler looked at Jocelyn gingerly and said in a low voice, "The second day after you moved to Lexie's home!"The next day after Skyler argued with his parents, he went to the bar and beat up these gossipy people at night. Then he went to the private room. Jim dressed his wounds and took him here after he was drunk.After Skyler found that Lexie's home was in the opposite way, he started to live there.Jim peeped at Lexie carefully. "Lexie, I..."Lexie didn't bother to talk to him. She grabbed Jocelyn's arm. "Jocelyn, let's go!"Jocelyn followed Lexie to the elevator. Seeing Jim and Skyler still standing there, Jocelyn compressed her lips. "Don't you go to have dinner?"Skyler's eyes lit up. He followed them immediately.Jim thought about it. 'Aren't they angry that we live opposite?'Jocelyn and Lexie walked into the elevator. Skyler and Jim followed them. Skyler fixed his eyes on Jocelyn as if he was reluctant to waste any slightest of time.Jocelyn glanced at hi
Chapter 784Skyler closed his eyes and didn't reply to Jim.Jim knew Skyler well. It was true that Skyler set off at that time on purpose.Skyler had trained his hearing strictly, so his hearing was very acute. Through the doors, after he heard that Jocelyn and Lexie wearing shoes and picking up bags, he asked Jim to set off.He had lived here for a long time and was reluctant to let Jocelyn notice. When he knew that Jocelyn and Lexie agreed to have dinner with them, he realized that Jocelyn's attitude had softened.Thus, he did so on purpose to let Jocelyn soften and come home with him earlier.He had suffered from serious insomnia recently. Although he took two sleeping tablets every time, it was useless. The doctor said that he had developed resistance to sleeping tablets and advised him not to take them but to take other treatments.He didn't care about it at all. Even though he couldn't fall asleep, he wouldn't feel lonely as long as Jocelyn was willing to return home with
Chapter 785Skyler said to Jocelyn in a low voice, "It's dangerous outside. I would like to take you home earlier!"Jocelyn thought about it and compressed her lips. "Talk about it after we have dinner!"He was relieved slightly. He knew that she meant they could pack up her things at Lexie's home and return home if it was still early after they had dinner.Although they were in a bad mood to hear such an incident, Skyler couldn't help but feel happy when he thought that Jocelyn would go home with him.When they entered the hall, someone was giving the security check with a safety detector as expected. Skyler and the others were cooperative.Soon, Jim passed the security check. Then it was the turn of Lexie and Jocelyn.When it was Skyler's turn, the safety detector rang as soon as it touched his wrist.Jim and the others felt strange.Skyler asked the security staff with a long face, "Why did my watch ring? It isn't a weapon!"The staff replied politely, "The safety detector
Chapter 786Jocelyn looked down and thought of Josie's tweet. It was strange that Josie had sent such an inexplicable tweet. Did she... Did she hear Skyler calling me Jo when we were in bed on the bug?'It’s so disgusting!'Skyler had planned to take Jocelyn home in the evening, but after he found the bug inside his watch, he doubted if there were any other monitoring devices in the house. He wasn't sure what Josie would do. 'Damn the insane woman!' He didn't want to expose Jocelyn to any surveillance.After thinking about it, Skyler said to Jocelyn, "Jocelyn, I don't know if there are any other secret monitoring devices in the house, pinhole cameras or whatever like that. I'll have someone examine the whole house tonight to make sure. I will pick you up tomorrow after I make sure the house is safe, okay? I feel unsettled to let you continue to stay outside!"Jocelyn looked at him and responded, "I want to go to work tomorrow!"Skyler's eyes clouded over. "OK. I'll pick up your
Chapter 787Jocelyn smiled. She was happy with Skyler's words.She then took out her phone and showed Skyler Josie's tweet.Skyler frowned as he read the tweet. He then looked at Jocelyn and explained, "Baby, I never called her Jo, even though she asked me to!"Jocelyn blinked and looked at Skyler. "But when we first got together, you muttered Jo a few times!" Jocelyn thought Skyler really loved Josie and used to call Josie Jo, so she felt sad. She couldn't stand the thought that Skyler had ever loved another woman.Skyler looked at Jocelyn with anxiety and explained, "I just noticed that your names could both be shortened to Jo, but I've never loved Josie. And I have told you before what happened between Abel and me. If it wasn't for Josie, we wouldn't have ended up like that!"Jocelyn felt better watching Skyler's face show anxiousness and trying to explain to her. She took Skyler's hand and said seriously, "I trust you. I guess Josie probably heard you call me Jo in bed and
Chapter 788Jocelyn came up to Lexie and turned to Davis' mother, "Davis is hurt, and he needs light meals. The meals in the hospital are best for him!"Davis' mother didn't expect Jocelyn to be here. She spat, "Who are you to tell me what to do? I'm talking to Lexie here. I don't have time for you!"Then the woman turned to Lexie again, "Why are you silent? Are you mute? You're on a date, so you don't have time to talk to me? Is this how you treat the mother of the man who saved your life?"Lexie's face looked awful. "Mrs. Lang, I've shown my respect to you. Don't go too far!"Davis' mother sneered, "Am I going too far? Am I not telling the truth? Let people tell you about it."Davis' mother was loud, and many people came to watch the scene.Lexie's chest heaved with anger. "If you really care about Davis, why aren't you at the hospital taking care of him? What are you doing here?"Immediately, a nervous look flashed across Davis' mother's eyes. She had actually come here to m
Chapter 789 Seeing the flicker in Davis' mother's eyes, Lexie guessed she had a reason for her being here.Lexie asked, her face cold, "What? Why don't you answer me? Are you doing something shameful here? Mrs. Lang, Davis was hurt because of me. But it was he who saved me, not you. I have been putting up with you for Davis’ sake. But if you go too far, I won't keep silent!"Davis's mother was surprised that Lexie would say that to her.She was immediately enraged. She threw her purse at Lexie.Jocelyn's face turned pale as the purse flew towards Lexie. She immediately held Lexie back.Skyler narrowed his eyes and instantly took Jocelyn in his arms. The purse hit him hard on the back.Jocelyn looked up at Skyler worriedly and complained, "Why do you block it with your body?"Skyler looked at Jocelyn. "How could I let it hit you?"Jocelyn muttered, "It's just a purse. It won't hurt too much!" Skyler responded, "Yeah, it didn't hurt too much. But if it hits you, I'll be worri
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
