Chapter 52
The faint smile on Lexie’s face abated in an instant.
Jim noticed Lexie’s expression cooling and instantly snapped alert. Jocelyn stood at the side expressionlessly, saying nothing. She could somewhat tell that this friend of Skyler’s was a philanderer. Unexpectedly, he had actually focused his attention on Lexie.
Jim decided to quit while he was ahead. He looked at Lexie and blinked his eyes. “I’ll come to see you again soon!”

The moment Jim left, Jocelyn looked at Lexie. “Lexie, I made a call to Davis just now. We’ll come to see you after work ends late afternoon. You rest up and don’t pay Jim too much heed. I can tell from a glance what kinda person he is!”
Lexie looked at Jocelyn. “I can tell too. Don’t worry, I only like Ch… Davis!” Jocelyn looked at her hesitantly and said, “You..as long as you’re aware. Also, don’t call him Chance anymore in the future. Chance doesn’t exist in this world anymore, only Davis. This is Davis’s own decision, do you understand?” Lexie nodded. “I understand, Jocelyn!” Jocelyn made the quilt for her and then left. The moment she got to the parking lot, she noticed Skyler standing not far away, throwing a piece of mint into his mouth. His eyes shone when he saw Jocelyn. “Get in the car, I’ll take you back to the company!” Jocelyn was stunned. She did not think that Skyler had been waiting here just to send her back to the company. She refused. “No need, I drove on my own when I came here today. Also, I’ll still be coming over this afternoon!”
Skyler’s expression was complicated. He repeated, “Get in the car, I won’t repeat the third time. If necessary, I can send you here this afternoon!”
Jocelyn quickly shook her head. “There’s really no need, President Moore!” Skyler’s expression was somewhat disgruntled. “I have something to tell you!”
Saying that, he opened the door immediately and put his hand on the door.
When Jocelyn heard what he said, she seemed to understand something. She immediately said seriously, “President Moore, I know what you want to say. Don’t worry, what happened today was just a coincidence. I won’t take it as some predestined meeting or think that there is some destiny between you and me and then have whatever unwarranted thoughts!”
Skyler’s handsome face turned red in an instant. He snapped through gnashed teeth, “Did I say this is what I wanted to talk to you about?”
Jocelyn was somewhat startled. “Then what is it?” Exclusive content © by Nô(v)el/Dr/ama.Org.
Skyler cooled his expression, glaring at her but not saying anything.
Jocelyn stood where she was for a few seconds but unable to endure the pressure of Skyler’s heavy stare, she then simply walked toward the car.
Besides, it was not as if it was her first time getting into his car! What was there to be scared of?!
At that, Skyler snorted and immediately shut the door before getting into the driver’s seat. As the car left the hospital, Skyler spoke after a while, “When did you and Zayn meet?” Jocelyn answered honestly, “Today!” Skyler let out a sarcastic sneer. “You two met today yet are already this chummy with one another. You sure do surge ahead with your relationships with other people!” An alarm bell rang loudly in Jocelyn’s heart and she looked at Skyler all of a sudden. “Don’t worry, sir, President Moore, I become friendly with everyone very quickly but with you here, sir, I will maintain at the very least the minimum sense of propriety so that you would not feel uncomfortable!”
Skyler’s expression turned as black as the bottom of a pot. “Who told you this?” “What do you mean, sir?” Jocelyn frowned, she did not understand him.
Skyler tried to calm himself and tried not to fuss with this woman. “You’d better keep a distance from him. Don’t wait till someone catches the both of you and accuses you that you knew him before and joined forces to slander Lily, do you understand?”
Jocelyn was stunned but instantly understood. She had not really thought about this possibility before, but based on those reporters’ rich imaginations, this possibility was not unlikely.
She nodded hurriedly. “Don’t worry, sir, President Moore. I will pay attention to discretion and not let others catch us!”
Skyler raged. At the red light, he stepped on the brake and turned to look at Jocelyn. His tone was extremely unhappy. “Can you stop it with the ‘sir’s? It makes me uncomfortable!”
Jocelyn was stunned for a moment and pursed her lips. “Alright, I’ll stop!”
Skyler never thought that someone’s manner of speaking could be so infuriating.
Every word that came from her sounded very respectful, even suggesting obedience, but he was very unhappy!
On second thought, he had asked Jocelyn to keep a distance and not to have any unreasonable thoughts. At that, he could not even continue to scold her anymore.
Noting his silence, Jocelyn could not help asking, “President Moore, is this what you wanted
to say?”
Skyler snorted coldly.
Jocelyn nodded. “Thank you, sir, for letting me know. If you hadn’t, I wouldn’t have even thought of it!”
Skyler frowned at her vehemently.
Jocelyn hurriedly added, “I apologize, it’s a habit. I won’t use ‘sir’ with you anymore in the future!”
Skyler snorted coldly but said nothing. Jocelyn turned her head to look out the car window, trying her best to be invisible.
