Chapter 4
Jocelyn’s face instantly flushed red. She said stiffly, “Yes, I got it!”
Since she dared to marry Skyler, she had already prepared herself for this.
She was not a woman of loose morals, but she was not a highly conservative woman either.
Since she had become his wife to avoid a disaster, she naturally had to sacrifice something.
However, she wished that that day would come later. After all, both of them were still strangers before today.
Skyler did not say anything on the way. He remained silent even while they were eating.
After eating, Jocelyn suggested that they should leave.
After all, she still had to fight in a battle in the afternoon!
Skyler glanced at her and said, “Regardless of what you intend to do right now, I’ll ask my assistant to fetch you at 7 p.m. Don’t forget that it’s our wedding night tonight!”
Jocelyn blushed and said, “I got it!”
She left in a hurry as soon she finished speaking.
Skyler’s assistant looked at Jocelyn’s silhouette and could not resist remarking, “Not only is Miss Jocelyn White’s name similar to that of Miss Josie Sonnet since they both start from the letter J, but they also look quite alike!”
Skyler swept his sharp gaze upon him and said, “You’ve been by my side for such a long time. You should know what to say and what not to say. I thought that you knew your own limits!”
His assistant was so frightened that he curled up upon himself.
Skyler paused and said, “Besides, their names are spelled differently!”
His assistant had a distraught expression on his face. “President Moore, I shouldn’t have been so talkative!”
Skyler ignored him as his gaze grew heavier. “Follow her. If anything happens, make a move at once!”
His assistant immediately nodded and said, “I’ll do that immediately!”
“Remember that nobody is allowed to bully my people! Do you understand?” Skyler had an icy and haughty expression on his face. He looked as noble as a deity on an altar. Nobody dared to offend him. Original from NôvelDrama.Org.
His assistant nodded, turned around, and slunk away.
The assistant had just left when Skyler’s phone suddenly rang. He glanced at his phone calmly as his pupils shrank visibly.
“Hello?” Skyler picked up his phone and spoke in a suffocatingly cold tone.
“Skyler, I heard that you got a marriage certificate with someone else?” Josie asked in an upset tone.
Skyler’s voice grew colder. “I said that I won’t give anyone the chance to stand me up for the fourth time!”
Josie’s voice cracked as she broke down. “I already asked someone to explain things to you. There are some things that I need to deal with in F Country. Why can’t you give me a little more time? Is the love between us not more important than your self-esteem?”
“Skyler Moore, you’re way too conceited. Do you really love me?”
While Josie continued shouting at Skyler from the other end of the call, he hung up with a cold expression on his face.
Love? There was love between them, but nobody had ever dared to manipulate him by taking advantage of the love he had for them!
If she dared to stand him up, he could always find another woman to take her place. That way, she would never have a second chance.
…
As soon as Jocelyn got into her car, she turned on the entertainment news.
She caught sight of the hottest news that everyone was currently discussing about.
The CEO of Oasis Jewelry brought his mysterious new wife to the Civil Affairs Bureau.
There were photographs of everything!
All sorts of comments were down below.
A new scumbag is born. Was he not in a relationship with Jocelyn White, a designer from Oasis Jewelry?
Perhaps he registered for the marriage certificate together with Jocelyn White!
That is impossible. I have seen Jocelyn in real life. Their heights are completely different!
Is he a scumbag that cheats on women? Is he not afraid of others finding out about it?
We do not know for sure if he is a scumbag or not. Perhaps both have broken up a long time ago! Such news is just used to gain clout. Keep calm and continue watching the show!
How is that possible? There were photographs of them sweetly attending Lily White’s celebratory gala for her win in the municipal jewelry competition together yesterday!
Anyways, someone like him who is capable of getting a marriage certificate with another mysterious woman when he has an official girlfriend, all while not messing things up, can only be called an expert!
Come on, in conclusion, men are trash!
I am not trash. Look over here, young girl!
…
Jocelyn scoffed as more and more derogatory comments filled the comment section.
Just then, she received a call from Howard.
“Jocelyn, where are you? All the reporters have arrived. We’re all waiting for you to start the press conference. Look at what they’re talking about me online!”
A mocking smirk formed on Jocelyn’s lips when she heard Howard’s panicked tone. “I’m below the company.”
As soon as she finished speaking, she hung up on the call and walked upstairs.
Howard looked like he had just found his savior the moment he saw Jocelyn. He rushed over, grabbed onto her, and walked toward the venue of the press conference.
“You should know what to say later, right?!”
