Chapter 108
Jocelyn froze and sat down while gritting her teeth.
Giada suddenly looked at Jocelyn. She crawled toward her and said, “Jocelyn White, I’m sorry. It’s all my fault. I was the one who ordered Millie to switch your design draft. I know that her father is sick, and she’s in urgent need of money. I bribed the people by my cousin’s side and used his account to transfer the funds to Millie!
“I was naive for thinking that you wouldn’t do anything to my cousin if you found that he was behind everything. I was the one who asked someone to delete the company’s surveillance camera recordings as well. It’s all my fault. I shouldn’t be jealous of you. I shouldn’t have gone against you. I really know that I’m at fault. Ask Skyler to forgive me, alright?”
There was an unpleasant expression on Jocelyn’s face. She sat there stiffly without saying anything
Giada pulled at the cuff of her pants as her voice broke, she continued, “Jocelyn White, you’re a designer. You know how important a designer’s hand is to them. Will I still be able to produce any work after losing one hand? Given that we work in the same industry, please forgive me, alright?”
Skyler and Abel did not say anything. Everyone in the suite seemed to be waiting for Jocelyn’s reaction
Jocelyn simply felt her heart sink as she looked at Skyler. “Can I have a chat with her?”
Skyler said coldly, “Do as you wish!” Jocelyn sighed slightly and looked at Giada. After some time, she asked, “Did you enter Prosperity Jewelry just to sabotage me?” Giada wiped away her tears awkwardly. “Yes!”
Jocelyn’s eyes flashed as she added, “Does this incident have anything to do with Fiona?”
Giada shook her head in a daze. “No!”
In a more accurate sense, Fiona knew about everything. Although she was under suspicion of instigating things, she also provided Giada with some important information regarding the Dawnlight Jewelry Competition However, Giada was the one who was behind everything. They easily found out about this through their investigation.
Jocelyn felt rather shocked. Things were different from her expectations.
“Did you switch my design draft because I hit you in Serene Court previously?” Jocelyn could not figure things out. They simply had a small argument. Abel even looked for her and stood up for Giada over this incident.
She thought that this incident had ended.
Even if Giada was still angry at her, Jocelyn would not feel as angry even if she hired some people to beat her up However, she had asked someone to switch her design draft behind her back instead. She
could not accept this.
If Skyler had not discovered this in advance, everyone would have suspected the credibility of her previous awards since she would not be able to win any awards in the Dawnlight Jewelry Competition after being awarded the grand prize in the Century Jewelry Competition previously.
Giada raised her head to look at Jocelyn. Her eyes were red-rimmed. “Do you really not know why I did that to you?”
There was a dazed expression on Jocelyn’s face. “Should I know about it?”
Giada choked up as she glanced at Skyler. She spoke in an aggrieved tone, “I like Skyler Moore. Can’t you tell? You hit me that day. Even though I asked my cousin to get back at you, I had no intentions to do anything to you till the very end! Abel lost to you in pool and started admiring you!
“However, why would Skyler stand on your side? I’ve liked him for so many years, but he won’t even spare me a glance. How long have you known him? Why does he keep taking your side? Tell me why this is so! i like him so much, but he’s going to break my hand because of you! Jocelyn White, aren’t you glad that I’ve been met with such an outcome?”
Giada’s voice was fierce and desperate. She loosened her grip on the cuff of Jocelyn’s plants and stopped begging for forgiveness. She simply sat down on the floor disgracefully. Jocelyn had extremely mixed feelings. She did not expect the ultimate reason behind Giada’s actions to be Skyler Moore.
Jocelyn spoke in a slightly exasperated tone, “Giada Cain, the fact that you like Skyler has nothing to do with me. You shouldn’t bring your personal emotions into your work. By doing so, not only will you ruin me, but you’ll affect Prosperity Jewelry as well. If you really like Skyler, you shouldn’t do this. Besides, Skyler isn’t doing this to help me. He’s just upholding justice!”
Giada suddenly burst out into maniacal laughter. Her voice was beyond sarcastic as she said,” Justice, haha. Jocelyn White, you’re way too naive. You actually think that Skyler is trying to uphold justice? What a joke!”
Everyone in Mauve City knew that Skyler always took the side of people close to him regardless of logic. Of course, Giada knew how much he protected his own people!
Skyler obviously viewed Jocelyn as someone on his side. What a joke that Jocelyn was still trying to justify her own behavior in such a self-righteous manner!
Giada looked at Jocelyn and shouted, “Jocelyn White, you disgust me!”
There was an unpleasant expression on Abel’s face. “That’s enough, Giada Cain!” Giada went all out. She asked loudly, “What’s wrong? Are you going to uphold justice as well, cousin?”
Abel’s expression darkened as he asked, “Do you really not want your life anymore?” Giada let out a scornful laugh as she said, “Will Skyler stop taking Jocelyn’s side if I give in? Will he forgive me if I admit to my mistakes?”
Abel stopped talking
Jocelyn felt extremely exhausted. She glanced at Skyler and said, “Skyler, you should… hand her to the police. I want the law to deal with her instead of you!”
Skyler raised his gaze and asked coldly, “Are you sure?” This belongs to NôvelDrama.Org - ©.
Jocelyn pursed her lips as a stiff expression appeared on her face. “I’m sure!”
Skyler’s gaze was dark and heavy. “Jocelyn White, didn’t you tell me that you won’t act like a martyr in front of the true culprit? If you let the law deal with her, I’ll have to let you know that given the Cain family’s connections, she’ll be out of jail tomorrow. They’ll just buy her way out!” Jocelyn spoke intently, “I’m not being a martyr. Don’t ordinary people seek the protection of the law after encountering such situations? Besides, I don’t want you to do such cruel things because of me!”
Skyler cast a mocking glance at Jocelyn. “Am I being cruel? You don’t know what it means to be cruel!”
