Chapter 31 Howard suddenly laughed mockingly. “I was just trying to trick you. I didn’t expect it to be true. Lily, you are amazing!” This was what Skyler had taught him!
Lily’s expression changed. “So what if you know? The netizens already know that I slit my wrists. Plus, you do not have any evidence, so do not even think about threatening me with Jocelyn’s recording. Don’t forget that they did a body search on you when you came in. That was what I was trying to guard against!” Belongs to (N)ôvel/Drama.Org.
Although she said that, she was obviously not confident enough. Howard stared at her coldly without saying anything. He sneered in his heart. So what if she was careful? She still could not stop Skyler! Lily suddenly grabbed a fruit knife from the side and swiped it across her wrist. Blood immediately spurted out as she pressed the emergency button. Howard was completely stunned by her actions. He looked at Lily with a complicated expression. “You…”
Lily sneered. “This time, I really did slit my wrists. Do you think you still have anything left to threaten me with?”
“You really did that to yourself!” Howard no longer knew what to say to express his shock. Lily scoffed. “What else can I do? Allow you to find evidence and threaten me with it? I’m not that stupid!”
As soon as Lily finished speaking, a doctor rushed in and threw Howard to the side.
In the afternoon, there was another uproar online.
Breaking news! Jocelyn was unwilling to withdraw the lawsuit, so Lily lost control of her emotions. The wound on her wrist was split open again, and she was sent to the operating theater again!
. There was also a photo of Lily bleeding as she was being pushed into the operating theater.
The netizens were crazily following the momentum! “Jocelyn, go to h*11!” “Jocelyn is not fit to be an elder sister! She is vicious and inhumane!”
“We’re being blasted all over the net. Jocelyn, just drop the charges. Is winning that important to you?”
When Jocelyn saw the news, Skyler called and asked her to go upstairs to his office,
Jocelyn went upstairs to Skyler’s office.
The moment she entered, she saw Skyler staring at the computer screen. She did not know what he was looking at, but he had a mocking smile on his face.
Jocelyn’s eyes flashed. “President Moore, were you looking for me?”
Upon hearing her words, Skyler was stunned. The corners of his lips curled into a playful smile. “Yes, have a seat!” Jocelyn pursed her lips. “No need, I’ll just stand!” Skyler looked at her with a faint smile. “What do you think of what’s trending online?”

Jocelyn’s eyes flickered as she replied honestly, “No comment!” Skyler sneered. “You’re so calm. I’m impressed!” Jocelyn raised her head and said, “You already have a solution, why should I not be calm?” Surprise flashed across Skyler’s eyes. “Oh, then tell me, what solution do I have?” Jocelyn immediately said, “Howard has been with Lily for two years. He definitely has evidence that Lily is lying. Since you spoke to him this afternoon, you must be confident that you convinced him to work for you!”

Skyler smiled and looked at Jocelyn with a fake smile. “I didn’t know you were so smart!”
Jocelyn retorted, “So-so, it can’t compare to President Moore!” Listening to her prickly words, Skyler felt that Jocelyn was like a cat, clawing at his heart with her claws.
He suddenly stood up, walked around the desk, and walked over to the white brocade. Jocelyn’s body stiffened.
Skyler stood in front of her and looked down at her.
Jocelyn felt that the air around her seemed to have become thinner. She subconsciously took a step back.
Skyler’s expression was dark as he reached out and grabbed her chin.
Jocelyn was shocked and subconsciously reached out to hit Skyler’s hand away. However, just as she raised her hand, Skyler grabbed it. “What? You want to hit me?”
A look of panic flashed across Jocelyn’s face. She frowned and stared at Skyler, stammering,” W-what are you doing?”
Skyler curled his lips and his slender arm suddenly wrapped around Jocelyn’s waist , pulling her into his embrace.
Suddenly, his sexy lips moved closer to hers.
Jocelyn could even feel his hot breath on her face.
She panicked and her eyes flickered. She clenched her fists and her breathing became tense.
Was he… Was he going to kiss her?
