Chapter 154
Skyler’s handsome face suddenly looked a little off-colored. His voice was stiff, “I was just asking, don’t overthink it.” Jocelyn’s voice was lukewarm, “Okay, I didn’t. President Moore, what else can I do for you?” Skyler almost vomited blood, he had never felt so aggrieved before. Why did he feel like he was in a hurry to talk to her?
He said bluntly as if he did not care, “No, but Jim said he wanted to get together tonight. He hopes that I can ask you over and it depends on you if you want to go or not.” Jocelyn frowned. “Will it involve alcohol again?”
Skylèr’s expression was unpredictable. “What do you mean again?” Jocelyn’s tone sounded more helpless, “President Moore, you were drunk last night, did you forget everything?” Skyler instantly thought of what happened last night and his voice suddenly sounded a little uncomfortable. “I drank too much last night and I blacked out.” NôvelDrama.Org owns all content.
Jocelyn was even more helpless. She knew that this person must have forgotten, otherwise, he would not be able to talk to herself so casually today.
She said, “President Moore, you drank too much last night and you’re going drinking again tonight? I told my friends that we’ll have dinner together, so I really don’t have time at night. If you want to go, drink less.”
Skyler’s expression looked stiff. “Which friend? Do I know them?”
Skyler was asking this question again and Jocelyn figured it would not be easy to con him again. So, she could only tell the truth, “I’m going with Director Lang and Lexie.”
Only then did Skyler remember that these three graduated from Mauve University together.
His eyes flashed, “Okay, I got it.”
After Skyler finished speaking, he hung up the phone. Jocelyn frowned and did not think much of it.
Coincidentally, Davis came back, and Jocelyn went to him.
“Director Lang, can we terminate Dan’s contract?” Jocelyn did not say anything about last night. Instead, she told Davis about Dan’s attitude.
Davis frowned. “If this contract is terminated, we will lose a lot unless they voluntarily terminate it.”
Jocelyn was a little helpless and hesitated. “He didn’t come to customize jewelry at all! He…”
Davis frowned when he saw Jocelyn like this. “Jocelyn, is there something you didn’t tell me?”
Jocelyn looked at Davis’ face. If she did not tell the truth, Davis probably would not understand how horrible Dan’s attitude was.
She pursed her lips and said, “Dan tricked me into going to a bar last night, saying that he wants me to customize some jewelry just to target President Moore and avenge himself, and… If my friend didn’t save me last night, something bad might have happened to me. So, I don’t want to continue to perform the contract.” Jocelyn said it lightly, but Davis’ face turned unpleasant. “Did he purposely make things hard for you last night?” He was a man, so when Jocelyn said that, he could basically imagine what happened.
He knew what methods Dan wanted to use against Jocelyn. If Jocelyn was not lucky, she would not be able to sit here unharmed today.
Jocelyn was now Prosperity’s hottest designer, so Dan wanted to hurt Jocelyn to slap Skyler in – the face.
He was so extremely despicable!
Davis’ face darkened.
Jocelyn was a little helpless. “Director Lang, I know you’re worried about me, but I’m fine, so don’t be angry. I’ll be careful about this kind of contract in the future.”
Davis nodded. Then, he thought about it and said, “You just fell into his trap accidentally last night. In fact, this contract has a lot of restrictions on the second party and Dan is not that stupid. He knows he won’t deceive you with the same excuse again unless he really wants to continue to customize the jewelry, otherwise, he will take the initiative to cancel the contract. Don’t worry, this matter is not difficult to solve.”
Jocelyn nodded and pursed her lips. “I thought of this too, but I want to deal with this as soon as possible, and… I don’t want President Moore to know about this.”
Davis’ eyes flashed. “In this case, it’s not too late, let’s go to Dan now and solve this matter.”
Jocelyn breathed a sigh of relief. She had actually calmed down and analyzed the stakes of the matter
Her analysis was the same as Davis’. She was confident that she was able to persuade Dan to terminate the contract, but what happened last night traumatized her and she did not want to face Dan alone.
Fifty percent of people in Mauve City today knew that Dan was beaten up, found by sanitation workers early in the morning, and sent to Claude Hospital.
Davis and Jocelyn rushed to the hospital.
Inside Dan’s ward, Dan saw that Yvonne was longing to stand against the wall and be as far away from him as possible.
He scoffed and took out his phone to play a recording.
Her conversation with Dan came out of the phone clearly.
“Say, Skyler is so heartless, and he doesn’t care about anyone. It’s so hard for me to crush his awe- inspiring authority.”
“Mr. Lester, you’re wrong. I’m indeed not interested in Skyler, but there’s a jewelry designer in Prosperity who Skyler cares about a lot.”
