Chapter 109
Jocelyn stared at him without saying anything. There was an unpleasant expression on her face.
Somehow, Skyler felt rather uncomfortable under her stare. He laughed sarcastically and said, “Do as
you wish!”
After speaking, he got up and walked outside.
Jocelyn knew that Skyler was definitely unhappy with her.
After all, he had spent plenty of effort to find out the truth to help her out. However, she had rejected his
help.
Skyler would definitely feel enraged since she was not appreciating his efforts.
However, she really did not want Skyler to take action himself. Jocelyn would feel terrified if he broke
someone else’s hand like it was an everyday matter.
Jocelyn did not know that people like Giada would not mind her so-called punishment at all. Not only will
Giada not appreciate her actions, but she would only hate her more and do crazier things in the future
However, Jocelyn did not think of any of this right now.
She had never encountered someone like Giada before. She did not understand this kind of person!
Abel looked at Jocelyn as she sat there silently. The expression on his face was way more serious than it
had ever been before. “Jocelyn, I’m sorry! It’s all my fault. The Cains didn’t bring Giada up well!”
Jocelyn glanced at him with a calm expression on his face. “This has nothing to do with you!” After
speaking, she got up and walked outside. Abel raised the pitch of his voice when she walked to the door

of the suite. “Regardless of everything, thank you for being willing to believe in me in front of Skyler!”
Jocelyn said coldly, “I was just stating facts.” After Jocelyn finished speaking, Yale returned to the room.
There was a calm expression on his face when he glanced at Jocelyn. “Miss White, I’m here to bring
Giada to the police station.”
Jocelyn nodded and walked away. Jocelyn knew that Skyler would be extremely displeased at her
response toward this matter. However, she still had to shamelessly ask Skyler for help on what Michael
had threatened her to do.
After all, she wanted to get her hands on the letter that her mother had left for her way too badly.
After returning to the company, Jocelyn called Skyler. However, he did not pick up her call.
Jocelyn’s heart sunk. Skyler must be extremely angry at her.
After work in the evening. Jocelyn returned to Villa No. 1 in time. The servants had prepared dinner for
her. The villa was empty. Skyler was yet to return.
After having dinner, Skyler did not return to her room. She stayed in the living room downstairs and
waited for Skyler while ruffling the fur of their cat.
Whitie sat beside Jocelyn obediently. It behaved completely differently from how it usually did in front of
Skyler.
Jocelyn waited till around eight o’clock at night, but Skyler was yet to return home. She went upstairs to
take a shower and continued waiting for him downstairs.
At the same time, in the platinum-class suite at Vintage Bar.
Jim noticed a few empty bottles in front of Skyler as soon as he entered the bar. Jim raised his brow and
chuckled. “What’s going on? Why are you suddenly drinking so much?”
Skyler raised his gaze to glance at him. He ignored him.
Jim sat down beside Skyler as his gaze flashed. “Why are you acting so unlike yourself today? Let me
guess. Did you argue with Jocelyn White?”
Skyler’s expression changed slightly. “What does my drinking have to do with her?”
Jim opened a bottle playfully and poured a cup of liquor for himself. “I can’t think of anyone capable of
offending you other than her!”
Skyler did not expect Jim to guess everything correctly. An unpleasant expression instantly appeared on
his face. “You’re overthinking! I just felt like drinking!”
Jim inched closer to him and said, “That can’t be. I recall that you have rarely drunk like that ever since
you quit smoking! Stop denying the truth. Jocelyn knows how to fight and draw designs. She’s good at
playing pool as well. It’s not embarrassing for one to fall for a goddess like her.”
There was an unpleasant expression on Skyler’s face. He moved to the edge of the sofa in disgust. “Jim,
shut up! Who said that I liked her?”
Jim blinked and said, “This can’t be. If this isn’t about her, what happened? Did you encounter any
problems at work?”
There was a stony expression on Skyler’s face. “I called you over for a drink, not to listen to your
nonsense!”
Jim touched his nose innocently and said, “Alright, let’s drink!” Skyler drank a cup of alcohol and thought
about how he had found out about Abel’s account Jocelyn chose to believe in Abel, and he put in plenty
of effort to find out that Giada was behind everything. However, Jocelyn was so naive that she chose to

let Giada off so easily. That is right! To Skyler, Jocelyn’s punishment toward Giada was equivalent to
letting her go.
He had spent so much effort investigating her case. However, this was what he got in exchange for all
his effort. Skyler had never felt so aggrieved before. If he tried helping Jocelyn out again in the future, he
must really be a fool! Skyler made up his mind while drinking his liquor.
Jocelyn waited at home till around ten o’clock at night. Skyler finally arrived home.
Jocelyn let go of Whitie at once. She then got up and walked toward Skyler.

She caught a whiff of the smell of alcohol on Skyler as soon as she approached him. She raised her
brow slightly and asked, “Mr. Moore, did you drink?”
Skyler glanced at Jocelyn and said in an angered tone, “What does that have to do with you?” Jocelyn
pursed her lips and said, “It has nothing to do with me!” Skyler was rendered speechless. He felt like
scolding someone else. He glanced at Jocelyn coldly. He walked past her and headed upstairs. Jocelyn
thought about how Michael had threatened her. She spoke stubbornly, “Mr. Moore, can you help me out
with something?”
Skyler instantly threw a tantrum when he heard her asking him for help.
He vented his rage on Jocelyn drunkenly without knowing what he was saying. “Why should I help you?
Jocelyn White, who do you think you are? What’s the relationship between both of us? Must I help you
because you asked me to?”
“You must not have a clear idea about the relationship between us. We’re married on paper, but have we
slept together? Even bar girls do something in exchange for payment, but what have you done?! You
keep asking me to help you without giving me anything in return. You’re too full of yourself!”
