Chapter 170
Davis rushed into the room with a panicked expression on his face. “Jocelyn, are you alright?” Yuni had just told him that Jocelyn was feeling unwell.
He felt highly regretful. If it were not for his carelessness, this might not have happened to Jocelyn. Skyler was extremely dissatisfied with Davis. An unpleasant expression appeared on his face when he recalled that Jocelyn had had breakfast with him.
He cast a dark look at Davis and spoke to him in an angered tone, “She would have lost her life if she waited for you to find out about it and send her to the hospital! Do you still think that she’s alright?!”
Davis looked at Jocelyn with a guilty expression on his face. “I’m sorry, Jocelyn. I just found out about it!”
Jocelyn shook her head and said, “It’s alright, this has nothing to do with you. I wasn’t careful!”
Skyler felt extremely irked when he heard what Jocelyn said. He frowned and glanced at Jocelyn. He then huffed coldly, turned around, and walked outside. Davis pursed his lips and asked, “Jocelyn, what’s wrong with President Moore?” Jocelyn’s gaze flashed as she said, “He might be in a bad mood!”
Davis nodded and said, “However, to be honest, you’re lucky that President Moore was there today!”
Jocelyn hummed affirmatively without saying anything else.
Davis pondered upon it and spoke up, “Lexie found out about your allergy. She’s on the way to Greene City now!”
Jocelyn frowned and asked, “How did she find out?”
Davis felt rather embarrassed. “I received a call from her when I found out about your allergy. I was worried about you, so I told her about your condition.”
Jocelyn knew that Davis was doing this for her sake. She pursed her lips and said, “Help me fetch her from the airport later. I’m still waiting for the results of the Ocean Heart Jewelry Competition to be released. You can bring her around the city!”
Davis nodded and said, “Sure, I’ll do that right now!”
Jocelyn nodded.
Davis rushed to the airport after visiting Jocelyn at the hospital for a while.
Jocelyn closed her eyes. She wanted to look at the IV drip, but she fell asleep unknowingly. She did not even know when the drip needle got removed from her hand.
When Jocelyn woke up again, she saw Skyler sitting on the sofa of the ward. The light cast a
shadow on his side profile. Somehow, he looked rather down. Jocelyn felt like speaking after waking up. However, her throat was extremely dry. Before she could say anything, Skyler noticed that she was awake.
“How are you?” Skyler raised his head and looked at her silently.
Jocelyn pursed her lips and spoke out in a dry voice, “I feel much better now!” Skyler got up and took a cup of water for her. “Drink some water first!
Jocelyn watched as he handed a cup of water over to her. Somehow, she felt extremely warm. Perhaps she was feeling emotionally vulnerable since she was not feeling well.
Jocelyn accepted the glass of water and took a couple of sips of water. She thanked Skyler intently. “Mr. Moore, regardless of everything that happened in the past, I still have to thank you for everything that you’ve done today. If it weren’t for you, I might have really…”
Skyler could not help but frown after hearing what she said. His voice turned icier as well.” Thank me properly if you want to. Don’t bring up any nonsense!” © 2024 Nôv/el/Dram/a.Org.
Jocelyn pursed her lips. Suddenly, she did not feel like speaking at all.
Just then, her phone rang.
“Hello!”
“Jocelyn, how are you feeling?”
“I’m alright. I’ve recovered now. When did you get off the plane? Have you found Davis?”
“Not yet. I called you as soon as I got off the phone. I’ll look for Davis now. See you later!”
“Alright, see you later!” Jocelyn tried to hang up on the call after speaking.
Lexie suddenly spoke up, “Jocelyn!”
Jocelyn was stunned. “Huh?”
Lexie’s cold voice was tinged with irritation. “I almost forgot this. I called you to tell you about something. Here’s a reminder. I saw Giada Crain just now. Wasn’t she the one who tried to exchange your design draft previously? Be careful. I’m afraid that she’ll try to scheme against you again this time!”
Jocelyn raised her brow and asked, “She’s in Greene City?”
Lexie nodded and said, “Yes, she was on the same flight as me. I saw her, but I don’t think she noticed me!”
“Okay, I got it. Look for Davis first. He should be waiting for you at the airport entrance!” Jocelyn said.
Lexie paused for a few seconds and suddenly spoke up, “Alright, I saw him!”
Jocelyn wanted to say something else, but she realized that Lexie had already hung up on the
call.
Greene City Airport.
When Lexie saw Davis, the light in her gaze instantly dimmed. That was because she saw Yuni and Davis standing in the bend of the corridor a short distance away from her. Lexie could clearly see them from where she was. However, they could not see her. Yuni reached out her hand to hold Davis’s hand, and Davis did not reject her advances either. Although Yuni was acting suspiciously, Davis did not shoo her away. There was an expression of tolerance on his face as well.
Lexie did not know when both of them had become so close to each other. Her heart sank as her eyes reddened. She pursed her lips and stood where she was. She did not know what she should do.
She thought that she was extremely strong and capable of accepting anything. However, when she saw Davis approaching someone else, it felt like her heart was being stabbed through by a knife. She felt terribly upset.
She bit her lip and turned around. She wanted to hide and come out after they finished speaking However, just then, Yuni grabbed Davis’ arm and shook it. She spoke in a coquettish tone,“ After we send Lexie to the hospital so that she can visit Miss White, can you accompany me to the mall?”
Lexie was rooted to the spot. She suddenly stopped walking. Suddenly, she wanted to find out if Davis really intended to disregard Jocelyn’s condition just to accompany this woman.
