Jocelynâs expression stiffened. âI just figured that I donât want to bother you, President Moore. I can handle the trivial matter of going to work myself.â
Skyler looked at her with an unreadable expression. He took a step forward and sprayed her face with his breath, âJocelyn, do you think Iâm going to eat you?â Jocelyn was inexplicably nervous, and she leaned back slightly and unnoticeably. She did not know what Skyler meant, so she just laughed dryly, âPresident Moore, youâre funny.â
Skyler stared at her and turned around to change his shoes. He did not even look at her. âIf you donât want me to carry you into the car, you should be more aware.â
Jocelyn frowned; Skylerâs behavior was somewhat abnormal.
âWas he triggered by something?â
Just as Jocelyn was wondering, she heard Skyler saying dryly, âJocelyn, Iâm not that scary and I wonât eat you, so you donât have to be so afraid of me!â
Jocelyn was a little helpless. âIâm not afraid of you, I just always have your words in mind. Keep a distance from you, restrain myself, and donât have any unwanted thoughts.â
Skylerâs handsome face froze a little. When he recalled that this was exactly what he said, he was so depressed that he did not want to say anything.
He was silent for two seconds and his tone was a little harsh. âI did say that youâre not allowed to have unwanted thoughts about me, but I didnât ask you to avoid me. Am I that scary? Besides, you are my legally wedded wife. Your ankle is injured and Iâm not so inhuman to let you go to the car by yourself. I donât have the habit of abusing my partner.â
Although his tone was not very nice, it sounded like he was explaining his abnormal behavior.
Jocelyn blushed slightly when she heard that he was calling her his wife and his partner.
âThereâs no difference between me taking a car and sitting in your car,â Jocelyn muttered.
Skylerâs patience ran out and looked at Jocelyn like he was looking at someone who was mentally challenged. âDo you know how long it takes to walk out of the villa to get a taxi? Whatâs more, you are still half-crippled!â Jocelyn really wanted to stick his mouth shut with a bottle of gorilla glue after hearing how mean he was.
However, he was right. Jocelyn just did not think about it just now.
She was not unreasonable. Since the situation was like this, she could only say in a muffled voice, âThen thank you, President Moore.â
Skyler snorted coldly. He did not even look at her when he took the car keys and walked outside.
Jocelyn limped forward. She tried to keep up with him and got into the car. Jocelyn got out of the car at the intersection in front of the company and walked toward the building unhurriedly. Jocelyn arrived at the design department, and before she could sit down for a few seconds, she saw a shocking piece of news.
Basically, it said that Chad just got married for a day and he immediately cheated on his wife. The journalists used a lot of effort to describe how unconventional and fickle in love he was before.
The most unacceptable thing was that he cheated on his wife just one day after getting married, which was simply astonishing.
This incident had caused a very bad social impact and it was even trending online. Plus, there were a lot of sarcastic hashtags about this scandal. #Thefastestcheaterinhistory #Yourichpeoplereallyknowhowtohavefun The comments were amazing.
(Perhaps this is the legendary evenly matched couple. The girl got married twice in a month and the guy got with so many people in one month.] [The lid will always match the pot. Darling, these two are the perfect couple!] (Doctor, I got cheated on the second day of my marriage. Do you have a prescription for that?]
Jocelyn frowned and looked down, her face changed slightly when she saw the photo of Chad and Lily at the door of the Civil Affairs Bureau two days ago.
She did not expect that Lily would go to get the marriage certificate after being beaten to a pulp.
What words should Jocelyn use to describe Lily? Moreover, Jocelyn stayed at home for the past two days and she did not go online at all. Hence, she had no idea about Lily and Chad getting married.
Michaelâs goal was achieved so would he still send her motherâs letter to her?
While thinking about this, Jocelynâs face turned a little ugly.
She walked out of the design department, stood in the corridor, and dialed Michaelâs number.
As a result, Michael rejected her call directly. When she called again, Michael was on a call with someone else, so Jocelynâs brows were furrowed.
At the same time, in the office on the top floor, Skylerâs cell phone rang.
â
130 Jocelyn always felt that Michael was deliberately not answering his phone and as she was about to call again, she received a call coincidentally. âHey, Director Claude, can I help you with anything?â Jocelynâs attitude towards Zayn was as gentle as ever. Zaynâs voice was as soft as a soft drizzle. âItâs nothing. I just want to ask you if your ankle feels better after these two days.â Jocelyn lowered her head to look at her foot. âItâs much better. I can already walk but I canât walk too fast, if not itâll hurt.â Zayn said, âI see. Be careful, itâll recover completely after two days.â Jocelyn nodded. âYes, Iâll be careful.â
She remembered Chad and Lilyâs marriage and related it to the Quirrel familyâs tragedy, so she could not stop herself from asking, âRight, did you find Lynn?â When Zayn heard this, his voice immediately became deeper. âYes, butâ¦â âWhatâs wrong?â Jocelyn felt that something was not right when she heard Zaynâs voice.
