Jocelyn grabbed his arm and his body went slightly stiff. She still retained a trace of lucidity, however.

In a trance, she recalled that Skyler seemed to have told her not to have any funny ideas about him!

She as though woke up a little. Although she was in so much discomfort, she let go of Skyler’s hand as if it burned.

She murmured unconsciously, "No need!"

Skyler felt her move and a touch of loss flashed across his eyes.

So it seemed that she was this unwilling to be with him…

He gripped the steering wheel tightly. “Alright, no need then!”

Jocelyn clawed at the backrest of the passenger seat incessantly.

She was trying hard to endure, to hold herself back from jumping Skyler.

He suddenly stepped on the brakes. He asked himself why was it so upsetting even though they were both married!

She was already his wife and it was only right that he help her!

Skyler unbuckled his seat belt then turned and looked at the passenger seat. His voice was very soft. "Jocelyn, let me he

    Skyler felt angry and suffocated. He suddenly turned his head, no longer looking at Jocelyn. His heart sank completely. "No need, we’re not far from Villa No. 1 now. The family doctor is already there!"With that, he suppressed his emotions and tried to keep himself from getting angry. The car was covering hundreds of miles in an instant as it sped toward Villa No. 1.In all honesty, Skyler was absolutely livid to have been pushed away in that situation.It was not only frustration from being interrupted emotionally, it was also his self-esteem being insulted.What could he do though? Jocelyn was not willing even in her predicament!Skyler could have any woman; to take advantage of someone when they were in danger would be absolutely classless!What was more, he had always been able to have anyone he wanted!He just wanted to help her!Jocelyn’s mind was muddled but she had engraved in her mind that nothing could happen between her and Skyler. She had forgotten that before thei

    Skyler's gaze sank and a dark light flashed in his eyes. "Dad, why do you say that?"Zachariah snorted. "I was invited to be a judge for the Dawnlight Jewelry Competition this time. I was free this morning so I flipped through the drafts from the competition just now. Unexpectedly, I saw the design by Jocelyn from your company!"You helped give her a name back then and helped her file a lawsuit. You even recruited her into your company. I wondered what kind of talent she is but, in the end, she’s just mediocre passing off as a genius. I don’t get her design. To tell you the truth, she wouldn’t even be able to pass the first round with that level. You need to improve your eye for people!"Skyler's frowned deeply. He has practically gone through all of Jocelyn’s design drafts.She was not the kind of person to play at things. Each of her designs had practically been spiritual.Yet, based on his father's reputation, it was impossible for him falsely accuse a small, unknown designer!

    Jocelyn had an extremely unpleasant look on her face. “This is not my design. Wait a minute.”After Jocelyn finished speaking, she hurried upstairs to get her laptop.She had a scanned copy of her design draft on her laptop.Jocelyn went downstairs with the laptop, quickly turned it on, and displayed the design she drew. Then, she turned the laptop over and showed it to Skyler. “This is the design draft I handed in that day.”Skyler breathed a sigh of relief when he saw the design on the laptop.This was the level of skill that Jocelyn should have.His eyes twinkled when he saw that Jocelyn looked a little anxious and angry. “Then when do you think your design draft got swapped?”Jocelyn shook her head with an unpleasant look on her face and tried to recall the scene of the day. “I finished the design draft, packaged it directly, and took it to the front desk so they could post it out. The company would send out all their parcels from the front desk. Maybe something went wrong i

    Skyler saw that Lynn, who asked Jocelyn to make jewelry, was also a victim.This made him believe Yale, who told him that the Claude family’s enemy might be the one who tampered with the drinks.After all, Lynn was the prospective daughter-in-law that was recognized by the Claude family and she was also a victim of this. This matter was most likely aimed at the Claude family.Skyler was staring at the list when he heard Jocelyn say, “Mr. Moore, this is the printed design draft, I will draw the original as soon as possible.”Skyler turned to Jocelyn. “What do you think about what happened last night?”Jocelyn was slightly startled, her expression looked a little unnatural, but she said quickly, “I was going to talk to you about this. I suspect Lynn was the one who did it because I only drank the wine she handed me last night. Plus, she and Yvonne are best friends and I poured wine on Yvonne last night, so if Lynn wanted to avenge Yvonne, it would make sense.”Especially when she t

    Mrs. Claude had hoped that Lynn would marry into the family a long time ago, but her son was so obsessed with his career that he stayed in the hospital all the time and rarely came home. He was even very indifferent to Lynn, the daughter-in-law who the Claude family favored.When Mrs. Claude learned that there was something wrong with what Lynn was drinking, her first thought was that it could bring Lynn and her son together.She asked her servants to send Lynn to the guest room to rest and then went to Zayn herself to ask him to bring some soup to sober Lynn up.However, no one thought that Zayn, who had no idea, would give the soup to someone else.At that time, Chad had just come to pick up his cousin Yvonne.Because of her conflict with Jocelyn, Yvonne was mad so she drank a lot. So, she went to the guest room to rest too.Zayn came out of the kitchen and ran into Chad.Chad asked him where Yvonne was, and he said that she was in the guest room, and while he was at it, he ha

    Since he did not succeed using the soft approach, he should just use the hard approach.Jocelyn’s face darkened immediately. “Are you threatening me?”Michael’s tone was cold. “It depends on how you see it.”Jocelyn recalled the swap and Michael calling her home for dinner. Then, she stayed silent for a while before answering coldly, “Alright, I’ll go back.”Jocelyn hung up her phone and packed her things with a dark face. Then, she left No. 1, North Court.Jocelyn was almost ruined when she was in White Mansion last time. With previous experience, she called Fred Cooke in advance.After she made sure Fred was going to White Mansion as well, she was finally relieved.When Jocelyn went over, Fred was already there and he was chatting with Michael on the sofa.To be honest, if her mother Grace Cooke did not pass away and her uncle’s shares were not taken by Michael, Michael would not be able to manipulate her uncle so easily.Even if her father would not allow her uncle’s compan

    Jocelyn was speechless as she looked at Michael. “Prosperity filed a lawsuit against Lily to expose her of plagiarism and then hired her again? Do you think they’re not right in the head or do they like to slap themselves in the face?”When Michael was about to say something, the door of the study was pushed open.Lily pushed the door open and barged in angrily.“Dad, stop begging her. She just doesn’t want me to be better than her. She thought she could step all over us because she has Skyler as her support. She doesn’t even think that if Skyler cares about her so much, why would he turn a blind eye to her sister?” Jocelyn peered at Lily coldly. “It’s useless even if you’re playing good cop, bad cop. It’s none of your business whether Skyler cares about me.”After Jocelyn said that, she wanted to leave.However, Lily grabbed Jocelyn’s arm. “Jocelyn, are you really not going to help me?”Jocelyn looked at her from the corners of her eyes. “Are you begging me?”Lily had an unnatural lo

    “Where did this come from?” There were intense undertones of rage in Jocelyn’s voice. The photo that Michael had sent to Jocelyn was in a thick, yellowing envelope. The words written on the envelope indicated that it was for Jocelyn. Jocelyn would not mistake the handwriting. This was her mother’s elegant handwriting. Besides, her mother had never written her any letters while she was still alive. Now that she saw this yellowing envelope, it could only mean that her mother had left her a letter before passing away. It was a pity that Michael had discovered it and kept it instead. This letter was in Michael’s hands right now! Jocelyn felt beyond infuriated. She did not expect Michael to behave so treacherously by keeping the letter that her mother had written to her. Michael could tell how Jocelyn was suppressing her rage from the other end of the call. He could clearly hear the sounds of her panting as well. He tsked nonchalantly and asked, “You’re asking me whe

"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 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

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.

    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.
