âWhere did this come from?â There were intense undertones of rage in Jocelynâs 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 motherâs 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 Michaelâs 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, âYouâre asking me where I got this from?â
âMy mother wrote this letter for me!â Jocelyn said in a firm tone.
âThatâs right, your mother wrote it for you, but so what? She was a fool! She insisted on sending it to you through the standard post before she passed away! Otherwise, I wouldnât have managed to get my hands on it!â Michael had no intentions to lie to Jocelyn about where he had gotten the letter from âYouâre treacherous! How can you do this? Youâre invading my privacy!â Jocelyn was so angered that her hands started trembling. She could not believe that this person was her father.
Michael chuckled lightly. He was still calm. âYou get angry so easily. Youâre still a child!â
âReturn the letter to me!â Jocelyn said in an extremely stiff voice.
Michael scoiled and said, âOf course⦠I can return it to you, but you must find a way to let Lily join Prosperity Jewelry!â
âThatâs impossible!â Jocelyn rejected his suggestion without even considering it.
The tone of Michaelâs voice grew icier as he said, âSince itâs impossible for you to do so, Iâll burn this letter. You wonât ever be able to find out the contents of this letter!â
There was an extremely unpleasant expression on Jocelynâs face as she shouted, âThis is an invasion of my privacy! Arenât you afraid that Iâll sue you?â
Michael did not mind at all. âYou can sue me all you like. Jocelyn White, do you really think that Iâll be afraid of you? Let me tell you this. If you dare to sue me, Iâll definitely burn this letter before going to court!â
âYou might now know this, but this letter contains your motherâs greatest secret in her life. She wanted to tell you about it before she passed away, but she didnât have the courage to tell you personally. She had no choice but to let you know through such means! However, she would never have expected this letter to fall into my hands!â
Jocelyn had never felt so aggrieved before. She was beyond angered. However, she could not act rashly right now!
She had to admit that she was afraid Michael would destroy this letter!
Her mother, Grace Cooke, was the person who treated her the best in the world. She loved her mother a lot.
Now that her mother had passed away, the letter that she had written for her was in someone elseâs hands. She could not accept this at all.
She suppressed her rage and asked, âFather, canât you change the condition instead?â
Given Skylerâs personality, he would never agree to let Lily join Prosperity Jewelry!
However, Michael was extremely adamant. âThatâs impossible! Jocelyn, I want you to convince Skyler Moore to let Lily join the company as your wedding gift to her before her marriage. I donât care what means you resort to. Anyways, I just want to see the results. Iâll only give you the letter after you let Lily join Prosperity Jewelry!â
As soon as Michael finished speaking, he hung up on the phone straight away before Jocelyn could say anything.
Jocelyn stared at her phone with reddened eyes.
She wanted to know what her mother had written to her in the letter extremely badly!
Her instinct told her that this letter was extremely important. That was because Michaelâs attitude toward her had changed not long after her mother passed away.
Skyler did not return to Villa No. 1 that night.
However, Jocelynâs heart was filled with worries. She did not notice his absence at all.
Logically, after everything that happened last night, the relationship between her and Skyler should be rather awkward.
However, Jocelyn had encountered too many problems today. She did not have the time to think about anything else, On Monday, Jocelyn had to head to work, She had not slept the entire night. Her eyes were bloodshot and tired.
Lexie just arrived at the office today. She looked for Jocelyn as soon as she finished reporting her attendance. She was shocked when she noticed her terrible condition. âJocelyn, are you alright?â
Jocelyn shook her head and said, âIâm fine!â
Lexie frowned and said, âLook at you. You donât seem alright at all!â
Jocelyn did not want to bring up the letter. She told Lexie about how her design drafts had gotten switched when she noticed the worried expression on her face.
Lexie was beyond angered. âWho would do such an immoral thing?!â
Jocelyn shook her head and said, âI donât know. Donât be angry. President Moore is looking into it. I believe they will find out everything soon!â
As soon as Jocelyn finished speaking, Yale came to the design department.
Yale looked at Jocelyn and said, âMiss White, please come with me!â
Jocelyn nodded and asked Lexie to return to the IT department. She got up and went out.
Lexie glanced at the design directorâs office and left unwillingly.
The employees in the design department did not know what was going on. They all stared at each other.
A dark glint flashed across Giadaâs gaze. She was seated next to Fiona. Did something happen?
Nas Jocelyn walked out of the design department with Yale. Both of them entered a small conference room by the side.
Millie, the receptionist, was inside the room. She seemed extremely antsy.
Jocelyn instantly understood that Yale wanted her to cross-check her facts with Millie.
OS She asked in a low voice, âMr. Ziegler, does this incident have anything to do with Millie?â
Yale shook his head and said, âI donât know. The surveillance camera recordings have been deleted.
President Moore said that someone within the company must have switched your design draft!â
Jocelynâs face darkened as she walked toward her.
Before she could say anything, Millie looked like she was about to burst into tears. âMiss White, this really has nothing to do with me! Back then, I was at the toilet. I didnât know what happened at all. Mr.
Ziegler told me that the surveillance cameras were broken. Someone must have secretly switched the design drafts, but I didnât know there were any problems with the design drafts! I posted the drafters after returning from the toilet!â
This was the excuse that Millie had come up with a long time ago.
After all, she had gone to the toilet, and the surveillance camera recordings had been deleted. There was not any proof. Nobody dared to say that she was the one behind it.
She had an extremely panicked expression on her face. However, she felt immensely calm.
After listening to Millieâs words, Jocelyn turned around and glanced at Yale. âMr. Ziegler, canât the recordings be recovered?â
Yale felt slightly exasperated. He had found someone to do so, but their skills were limited.
He shook his head and said, âThe people from the IT team have already tried recovering them yesterday, but it wouldnât work!â
Jocelynâs gaze flashed. âLook for Lexie! She should be able to recover it!â
