Jocelynâs body tensed up when she thought about what Skyler had said to her before about how being kind to the enemy is cruel to yourself. At that moment, she suddenly agreed with his words.
A person like Giada simply did not deserve sympathy. Draco brought a knife in and handed it to Giada.
Giada turned around and trod towards Jocelyn. After taking a step, Skylerâs voice suddenly rang out, âGiada, have you had enough?â
Giada dropped the knife in her hands and it fell to the ground.
She turned around in disbelief and looked at the figure in the corner with shock as her voice shook.
âSky⦠Skyler!â
Giada could not believe that the person she hired had actually kidnapped Skyler too. âIm⦠impossible, the one they kidnapped was supposed to be Davis!â
She grabbed the flashlight from Dracoâs hands and shone it over.
She then saw Skylerâs indifferent face glaring coldly at her. Giada instantly panicked and turned to slap Draco across the face. âYou idiot! I asked you to kidnap Jocelyn, who asked you to get him too?â
Draco clutched his face angrily and looked extremely embarrassed. âI already told you that I caught a pretty boy and it was you that told me to put them together!â Giada stiffened as she remembered the call from Draco earlier that seemed to have informed her that he caught the man with Jocelyn.
However, at the time she thought that it was Davis and did not expect that it would be Skyler! She looked at the obvious signs of injury on Skyler and glared at Draco. âDid you hit him?â
At this moment, Draco realized that this manâs identity was more complicated than he thought. He justified himself. âHe started it!â
Giada angrily slapped him again. âYou idiot! Even if thatâs the case, you canât do anything to him!â
Draco could never have imagined that this woman was so unreasonable. If it was not for the money, he would have killed Giada on the spot.
Giada was oblivious to Dracoâs reaction. She turned around and helplessly looked at Skyler. âSkyler, I⦠I didnât mean to, I didnât know⦠I really didnât know that you would be together with this b*tch Jocelyn!â
Skyler looked at Giada coldly. âSo, if I wasnât here, what were you going to do with Jocelyn?â
Giada was so flustered as she never thought that things would turn out like this.
She only wanted to avoid Skyler and quietly take care of Jocelyn so she would never have any obstacles between her and Skyler but she did not expect things to be like this.
Her eyes reddened. âSkyler, I was wrong so please forgive me and Iâll never do something stupid like this again, okay?â Skylerâs tone was as cold as ice. âYou think itâll happen again?â
Giada stood stiffly in place like a fool. She had no idea that things would take a turn like this and did not know what to do.
Skylerâs eyes flashed and said solemnly while Giada was flustered, âGiada, untie me!â
Giada was startled and was about to step forward to untie him.
However, Draco grabbed her arm. âBoss, you canât let him go!
Giada frowned. âWhy? You still want him tied up? Do you know who he is?â Draco got furious. âI donât care who he is. Think about it carefully, if you let them go now, will we escape from this?â
Skylerâs identity was complicated so if they were to let him go, all of them would die! When Giada heard that, she instantly thought about the past when Skyler wanted to break her hand because she swapped Jocelynâs design draft.
She stopped moving.
Draco saw that she was persuaded and was about to continue to remind her that all their efforts would be a waste if they did not kill Skyler. As a result, Giada suddenly bent over and picked up the knife from the ground. She looked as if she was bewildered. âSkyler, donât blame me. I already tried my best and I canât do anything. Donât worry, I wonât hurt you. I just want to ruin Jocelynâs face so that you wonât be enchanted by her again, okay? âIâm doing this for you, so youâll forgive me, right?â
Giada said as she held the knife and stalked toward Jocelyn.
Dracoâs eyes were full of disgust as he did not expect that after talking for so long, Giada would only still want to deal with Jocelyn and let Skyler go. He stood behind and coldly observed. He would not be merciful if Giada dared to let Skyler go.
Skyler got anxious when Giada got close to Jocelyn and instantly raised his voice. âGiada! Think it through! If you hurt Jocelynâs face, Iâll never forgive you!â
Giada glanced at him and chuckled and said in a slightly eerie tone, âThen thatâs more the reason why I canât let Jocelyn go!â Skyler endured his pain and struggled to sit up to stop Giada. âGiada, stop it, stop messing around!â
Skyler panicked when he saw that Giada was already in front of Jocelyn.
However, it was as if Giada did not hear Skylerâs words. She raised the knife in her hand and plunged it towards Jocelynâs face. In a nick of time, since Skylerâs hands and feet were tied which rendered him immobile, he could only abruptly jump up and forcefully pounce over. He used his back to shield Jocelyn.
There was a sound of steel cutting through flesh.
