Lexie looked at Skyler unhappily. Her tone remained emotionless, but it was not difficult to see her discarisfaction.
“When Dan Lester came to customize jewelry at your company, he took the opportunity to Invite Jocelyn toe Bar, saying that he wanted to discuss details regarding the jewelry customization. In the end, Jocelyn went to see him only to find out that that group of people had lured her into a trap!”
Lexie looked at Skyler, an indescribable look on her face “A group of men in the private room almost took advantage of Jocelyn. It was fortunate that Abel Crain caught wind of the situation in time and rescued her. Not only that, but something also almost happened to Abel last night. Dan was the ane who orchestrated it as well Did you not know any of this? If that’s the case. you’re nol a very good husband. Even though she’s just your wife on paper, you can’t just neglect her like this!” When she said that, Skyler’s expression fell He stood there gloomily and it felt as if the temperature in the entire office had dropped a few degrees. Something terrible almost happened to focelyn. It happened such a long time ago too, and yet he had no idea about this! He finally understood wtiy Jocelyn suddenly became such close friends with Abel! Being able to save Jocelyn from a situation like that is equivalent to saving her life. How could Jocelyn not see him as a friend? Now, he understood why Jocelyn would disregard her own safety to go rescue Abel yesterday.
After a long while, he finally spoke up, his tone solemn. “I had no idea at all!”
Lexie’s gaze tumed colder. “It’s none of my business whether President Moore was aware of the situation or not. But since I encountered this enemy again, I must do what I can to avenge focelyn!”
Skyler looked at Lexie with an indescribable look in his gaze.
Jim was shocked. His mouth opened and closed a few times before he finally recalled what happened that day. “That means that that time Abel made Dan spend a whole night on the Mauve City Bridge, it was to avenge Jocelyn? So Dan ended up holding a grudge against him?” Lexie glanced at him and nodded Jim looked at Skyler, unsure of what to say He knew that Abel had opposed Skyler all these years, and Skyler had gone from being annoyed at him to downright hating him. However, Abel saved Skyler’s wife Surely this would have moved him, even just a little! Lexle’s gaze darkened as she looked at Skyler, but a faint look of understanding fitted across
his gaze as she did. She looked away and said plainly. “If there’s nothing else, I’m leaving first!” As soon as she finished speaking, Jocelyn pushed open the door and walked in. Skyler’s head snapped towards her, and he stared at her. He hid the look of anger and guilt in his gaze and felt a pang of hurt in his heart. Jocelyn was oblivious to what was happening She frowned, “What’s the matter with all of you? Why does the atmosphere feel so weird?” Skyler was still acting like she was not there before this. Why did his attitude change so suddenly?
Lexie did not bother saying anything else. She just looked at Jocelyn and said, “It’s nothing. the problem’s solved. They’ll handle the investigation on the traitor. I’m going home to sleep!”
Knowing how Skyler was as a person, he would not let Dan Lester off so lightly!
Jocelyn was still in a daze. Skyler glanced at Jocelyn, a complicated look on his face. “You should go with Miss Lane and wait for me downstairs. I need to have a few words with Jim. I’ll be down in a bit!”
Jocelyn frowned and nodded, dien followed Lexie downstairs.
The moment they left, Skyler took a seat on the couch and pondered for a moment. It did not seem like he intended on talking to Jim. Jim cauld not hold back a self-indulgent sigh. “I just realized how radiantly beautiful women NôvelDrama.Org (C) content.
glow!”
Skyler was deep in thought. When he heard this, he gave Jim a cold look “Didn’t you used to say that sexy women were the most seductive?”
