In the other ward, Jocelyn could not help frowning the moment the door closed. "What is Jim trying to do?"Lexie shook her head, not wanting to discuss the issue. "It’s nothing, he’s just cheeky. He’s no trouble. You should go back quickly, you still have to go to work tomorrow!"Jocelyn’s eyes shone. "All right then, you should get some rest. Call me if you need anything!"Lexie nodded. “Alright, I got it, hurry up and go!"Jocelyn walked out. The moment she closed the door, she noticed Skyler walking out from the ward next door. The two met gazes and then looked away at the same time.Jocelyn pinched her fingers. She did not even do anything wrong so why was she behaving like she was guilty or something?Thinking of this, she turned around and walked directly to the elevator as if there were no one else around.Skyler followed her without saying a word.The two entered the elevator at the same time. Jocelyn looked at the two silhouettes reflected on the elevator wall and fe
At the same time, the lamp at the head of the bed was switched on by the person standing beside the bed. Jocelyn looked at the man standing by the bed, startled. Her heartbeat went back to normal after a long time.She glared at the man who had appeared in her room in the middle of the night, expression ugly. "What are you doing in the middle of the night?"This feeling of shock in the middle of the night almost scared her silly.Skyler’s expression was unsmiling and he said nothing. Jocelyn had been scared out of her wits. Seeing that Skyler was not saying anything, she felt inevitably angrier. "Do you know that people can die from fright? Were you sleepwalking in the middle of the night?"Skyler looked at Jocelyn with a dark look.He knew that it was not right for him to suddenly appear in Jocelyn’s room in the middle of the night.However, he really could not sleep. He had taken a shower and went to bed early, but he just could not stand the smell so he got out of bed an
Jocelyn’s heart was as chilly as the howling north winds.She did not expect at all that Skyler’s purpose was only to discuss their bodies and not their feelings.Perhaps she should have understood this truth when she first offered to sign a marriage certificate with him and let him become her own retreat.Thinking of these recent events, Jocelyn’s heart went colder, but her mind became calmer.Jocelyn was silent for several seconds. She did not get out of bed to get a drink, instead immediately turned around and laid back down. Her entire body occupied half of the big bed stiffly.Skyler’s eyes flashed. He peeled back the quilt and laid down on the other side as if it were only natural.The reassuring scent nearby made him fall asleep unconsciously.It was a good night's sleep.When Skyler opened his eyes the next morning, he was still hugging Jocelyn like a satisfied cat. He opened his eyes and looked at the woman in his arms with a slightly unnatural expression.Recalling
Fiona was immediately frozen in place. When she noted the joy Lynn was showing before she quickly walked toward the man beside Jocelyn.Her expression changed in an instant and she hurried out.Lynn did not expect to meet Zayn here.She had liked Zayn since childhood. The Claudes and the Quirrels had decided to let the two of them grow up together. Unfortunately, Zayn had been neither hot nor cold for so many years. Not to mention he had gotten busy ever since he entered the hospital, and she often could not meet with him.She could not even find the opportunity to impress him.She came to Fiona this time to order jewelry from her because she wanted to make a big impact during Zayn’s mother's 50th birthday and have Zayn finally look at her. She did not expect to find Zayn at Prosperity Jewelry. It was a surprise for her.Zayn was speaking with Jocelyn when their route was obstructed. He looked up and surprise colored his eyes. He did not expect to see someone he knew. Jocel
Yvie nodded shyly. "I'm Miss White’s assistant now!"She saw Lynn yesterday, but she was Fiona’s customer so she did not take the initiative to say hello.She was surprised when she saw Zayn outside just now!Jocelyn did not expect Zayn and Yvie to actually know one another!She looked at Yvie curiously, and then at Zayn. "You two know each other?"...At the same time.Fiona stood at the door of the reception room on the other side, her expression livid. Her hands were clenched. She did not expect Jocelyn would steal her customer in front of the entire design department just as they were about to sign the contract. It was like a slap in the face in public.She was angry at Lynn but hated Jocelyn even more. After Jocelyn entered the reception room with Zayn and Lynn, the design department exploded. "Oh my god, I think I’m going blind. What is happening? A customer left on their own accord and not with an invitation!""I bet no one thought this reversal would happen. Ever
Zayn looked at the design drafts Jocelyn provided and chose the third set. "My mother prefers this type. We can sign the contract now!"Jocelyn nodded and showed Lynn five design drafts. "I designed more jewelry styles suitable for young ladies attending dinner banquets. So, there’s a wider selection available. Take a look at what you like first. If you are not satisfied, I can show more!"Seeing Zayn so satisfied, Lynn had not intended to embarrass Jocelyn. However, when she really took a look at Jocelyn’s design drafts, she only had one thought in her heart, ‘Thank goodness I didn't sign the contract with Fiona. Any one of Jocelyn’s design drafts was much better than Fiona’s.’Her eyes shone brighter and brighter. Finally, she chose one of her favorite design drafts and looked at Jocelyn with a smile. “This one. Miss White, your designs have really convinced me. I really like them!"Now she looked at Jocelyn with admiration. She believed that Jocelyn would become a popular jewe
Skyler froze, his expression changed slightly. He suddenly pictured a scene of Zayn talking and laughing with Jocelyn.His expression was grave but he did not speak, as if his throat was stuck.Davis thought Skyler did not know who Zayn was and explained. "I heard that he’s the director of Claude Hospital and had provided evidence on Lily White's fake suicide before. Have you heard of it? President Moore!"Skyler was livid, and his tone was foul. "I already know. Don't tell Jocelyn that I wanted to give her customers!"After Skyler said that, he immediately hung up.He had never had such an experience, to be given such a cold shoulder despite his enthusiasm.After work in the late afternoon, Jocelyn went to the hospital to see Lexie.As a result, she met Skyler in the hospital parking lot.When the two met gazes, Skyler immediately thought of the fact that Zayn had come to have jewelry customized this morning and was the first to look away and walked toward the elevator.Jocel
Skyler saw an unfamiliar number. He could guess whose number it was, although he did not want to answer it.However, it was better for him to go out and answer the phone than to keep having Yvonne stick herself to him like sticky gum in the ward.Skyler glanced at Jim and picked up his cell phone. "I'm heading out to answer a call!"Jim was staying in the ward in the loft. Skyler went to the roof with his cell phone directly. Josie's voice, as expected, sounded from his phone."Skyler, do you really feel no friendship for me?"Skyler’s expression was not pleasant. "Are you sick?"How inexplicable!He should not have answered the phone.Skyler was about to hang up when he heard Josie raise her voice. "Yes, I'm sick. I left to prove whether you like me or not. Yet I see you’ve got a marriage certificate with Jocelyn and had helped her steal Fiona's customer!"Skyler did not expect Josie who was abroad to know everything that was happening domestically like the back of her hand
