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
“Lexie?” Yale still did not know who Lexie was. Jocelyn nodded and said, “She’s a new employee in the IT department. She’s an extremely famous hacker!” Millie’s heart lurched after hearing what Jocelyn said. She wondered how good Lexie’s IT skills were. Would she be able to recover the recordings after they got deleted? Yale placed a phone call. After a while, Lexie knocked on the door and came in with a laptop in her hands. Somehow, Millie started panicking when she saw Lexie. Lexie had a cold personality. The expression on her face right now was extremely icy. Jocelyn raised her brow and asked, “Why did you just bring a laptop over?” Lexie glanced at her. Her gaze then landed on Millie. “The recordings have been recovered!” Millie’s face paled immediately. Lexie walked over and placed the laptop on the round table by the side. She looked at Millie coldly. “Are you going to tell us everything first or do you want us to look at the recordings together?” Millie
Jocelyn frowned and said, “Mr. Cain, I have an appointment in the afternoon!”“What about at night?”“I’m not free at night either!” “In that case, let’s meet up tomorrow or the day after!” Abel continued saying stubbornly. He did not mind at all. Jocelyn was unhappy. “Mr. Cain, can’t you tell? I’m rejecting your offer!” Abel chuckled lightly and said, “Lil Sis, can’t you sense it? I’m interested in you! You’re way too interesting!” He recalled how Jocelyn had cleared all the pool balls on the table in one go that day. He found it extremely intriguing. Jocelyn’s voice grew icier as she said, “There are plenty of interesting people out there. I’m very busy. Look for someone else, Mr. Cain!” Abel said in an exasperated tone, “I’m just downstairs of your company building right now. If you don’t mind, I can come here and wait for you every day!” Jocelyn knew that Abel intended to come here to look for her every day if she did not have a meal with him. Her expression ch
Abel was rather shocked. He chuckled lightly and said, “Lil Sis, is something wrong with your hands?” Abel took another pair of utensils and handed them to Jocelyn.Jocelyn was slightly stunned. She did not accept the utensils from him.Lexie noticed Jocelyn’s unusual response and immediately said, “So what if he’s back? It has nothing to do with us!”Davis looked at Lexie and said, “I remember that you told me about him back when we were in university!” Lexie saw Jocelyn taking the utensils from Abel. She then lowered her head and continued eating. Lexie told Davis, “Wasn’t he really popular back in university? I simply admired him because I was curious about him back then. Don’t mention him now. He’s way too different from us!” Lexie had always been cold and untalkative. This was the first time Davis had seen her being so emotional!He could not help but chuckle and say, “Lexie, do you like Walter Keene? I was just talking about him randomly. Why are you being so emotiona
Jocelyn was stunned. A complicated glint flashed across her eyes as she instinctively retorted, “I don’t know him!”Skyler felt that Jocelyn’s reaction was rather odd. “You said that a little too quickly!” Jocelyn calmed down a little and said, “I just heard about him back in university. After all, he was very popular back then!” Skyler’s gaze flashed. “Is that so?” Jocelyn remained silent. She could not bring herself to admit that she liked Walter, and she had been humiliated by his fiancée once! Everything was in the past. That had nothing to do with her anymore! Jocelyn remained silent for a while and placed the original draft in her hands on Skyler’s office desk. “President Moore, this is the original design draft that I wanted to submit to the Dawnlight Jewelry Competition. I’ve completed it!” Skyler took the draft and glanced at it. “It’s not bad!”Jocelyn thought about Millie. Suddenly, she did not feel like getting revenge on her.She asked Skyler, “Millie
Jocelyn’s gaze was way too sharp. It was as if her gaze was a laser that pierced through Fiona. Nobody in the design department knew about her design draft getting switched except for her and Davis. They have yet to find out the true culprit behind this case!Fiona seemed to know that she would not be able to get any awards. This incident might be related to her! Fiona felt rather guilty under Jocelyn’s harsh glare. Her expression changed slightly. “I…How can I know if you’ll be able to get an award? I just think that you don’t have the ability to win an award consecutively. Aren’t I allowed to think so?” Jocelyn looked at Fiona expressionlessly without saying anything. Fiona felt slightly enraged as well. She flung off Jocelyn’s arm and shouted, “Why are you staring at me like that! What do you getting an award or not have to do with me?” Jocelyn’s expression was unreadable as she said, “Fiona, you’re feeling guilty!” Fiona looked annoyed. She shouted angrily, “Jocel
