Chapter 152
Jocelyn froze. As she felt the warmth of her collarbone, her whole body seemed to heat up.
She blushed and struggled with an unpleasant expression. “Mr. Moore, let me go. You are drunk, I will take you back to your room so that you can rest.”
Skyler trapped Jocelyn and was smelling the sweet fragrance on Jocelyn’s body. Suddenly, his eyes shone. Did she think he was drunk?
She seemed to have a higher tolerance for his drunk self than his regular self.
Skyler’s eyes were gloomy, and he did not know what he was thinking. He put on an act and pretended to be drunk. Then, he said in a muffled voice, “Don’t move, I’m not drunk, I can still drink more later.”
Jocelyn did not know if she should laugh or cry. He was indeed drunk!
She felt helpless and she figured that Skyler would be in a bad mood when he woke up the next morning and found out how much of a rogue tonight.
Jocelyn felt Skyler’s strength loosen a little and she reached out to push Skyler away.
As a result, Skyler immediately hugged her tighter, his voice a little hoarse and deep, “Be a good girl and don’t move.”
Jocelyn’s heart was beating frantically. She took a deep breath. “This man is just drunk.’
Moreover, he had never spoken to Jocelyn in such a tone so he must have regarded her as someone else!
Thinking of this, Jocelyn’s expression suddenly turned unpleasant.
She bit her lip and suddenly stabbed her elbow hard against Skyler’s chest.
Skyler groaned in pain and subconsciously reached out to cover his chest. He never thought that this woman would be so cruel.
Jocelyn immediately took the opportunity to push him away and ran back to her room.
Skyler clutched his chest. His eyes were clear, but his heart felt even more helpless. He did this to himself
Since he told Jocelyn not to have improper thoughts about him, he should keep a distance from her too, yet what was he doing now?
He did not even understand it himself!
However, when he figured that he was still drunk, he reluctantly slid down the wall, closed his eyes while leaning against the wall, and sat on the ground.
11 Jocelyn knew he was not drunk, it would be a big deal.
Jocelyn went back to the room and felt like she was overreacting.
She calmed down, opened the door, and saw Skyler leaning against the wall and sitting on the
corridor floor. She pondered for some time but did not approach him herself. Instead, she summoned the butler and let him send Skyler back to his room. The next day, Skyler found that Jocelyn had left for work after he woke up. When he thought about what happened last night, his eyes darkened. His cold and handsome face displayed a hint of frustration.
Jocelyn arrived at work very early today. She planned to talk to Davis about Dan’s contract this morning to find a way to cancel the contract of the custom jewelry.
In the end, Davis was busy this morning. He did not come to the office, and he was busy working outside. Hence, Jocelyn could only start working. At the same time, Yvonne received a phone call from Dan.
“’Yvonne, how dare you f*cking lie to me?” Dan sounded furious. Yvonne’s heart skipped a beat from fright. “What nonsense are you talking about? When did I lie to you?”
“Didn’t you say Jocelyn is Skyler’s woman? If so, why did Abel come making trouble for me last night? Aside from ruining my plan, he even said I messed with his woman. How dare you say you didn’t lie to me?” Dan suffered a double loss last night and he was still seething.
Yvonne did not expect someone to appear halfway into their plan and ruin everything. Abel was helping Jocelyn now.
She frowned. “Mr. Lester, I didn’t lie to you. If you don’t believe me. Go ask around in the circle. Everyone knows that Skyler was avenging Jocelyn so that’s why he did that to the Quirrel family. As for Abel, it’s not weird for a woman like jocelyn to have more than one man. How can you put the blame on me?”
Dan did not accept how Yvonne was trying to con him and his voice was extremely gloomy, “I don’t care about Jocelyn. Come to Claude Hospital right away. I’m hospitalized because of
you!”
He could not cause trouble for Abel and Skyler in his state right now, so he could vent his anger on Yvonne.
Yvonne was frightened by his tone. “Mr. Lester, if you are sick, just stay in the hospital, I…”
As soon as Dan heard Yvonne’s tone, he knew that this woman did not want to come, and he flew into a rage all of a sudden.
“You’re not coming, are you? Then I’ll get someone to bring you over.” He was being tyrannical.
Yvonne turned pale with fright. “Don’t be like this, Mr. Lester, we can talk about this.”
Dan sounded extremely impatient. “Yvonne, I’ll tell you the truth, I’ve recorded you when you instigated me to take actions against Jocelyn back then. If you don’t want this to fall into Skyler’s hands, you’d better come to me right away!”
Dan was not weak, and he would not let people manipulate him however they wanted. Yvonne did not expect this at all, her expression instantly became extremely unpleasant. “How can you do that?”
Dan sneered, “Do you think I need you to teach me what to do?” Yvonne was shocked and angry, but she did not dare to cross Dan. If he did send the recording to Skyler, she would definitely suffer judging from Skyler’s personality. Her lips were trembling as she said, “I’ll head over. I’ll head over now. Send me your ward number.”
When Dan heard this, he immediately hung up the phone. Soon, Yvonne received the ward number. However, she was so scared she did not dare to go.
Dan was urging her, and it was as if he was pressuring her to death. Last night, he suffered defeat at Jocelyn’s side and today, he was most likely trying to use her as a punching bag. However, he got dirt on her, so she had to go. Yvonne thought about it again and again. In the end, she decided to probe Jim. When the call went through, Yvonne said with a guilty smile, “Jim, what are you doing?” Content provided by NôvelDrama.Org.
Jim lifted his eyebrow. “What is it?”
