Chapter 69
Jocelyn stared at Skyler, her eyes widened and her jaw on the floor. She did not know what words she could use to describe how she was feeling right now.
However, after Skyler said that, he did not give her a chance to speak before he turned around to leave.
After gaining the upper hand, Skyler’s footsteps felt much lighter. Jocelyn stared at Skyler’s back, unable to explain how she was feeling. She never expected that Skyler would use what she said downstairs just now to fight back against her. How could there be such a vengeful man? Jocelyn cursed in her heart, ‘Skyler, you mutt!’
Then, she huffed in anger and slammed the door shut before going back to the bathroom to continue her shower.
She should not open the door for this person while she was in the shower.
Skyler had his things in his hands and he went back to the master bedroom. Soon, he realized his behavior just now was a little childish.
However, he had to admit that he did feel much better after saying that.
Yet, on the other hand, he would have to take sleeping pills tonight. Then, his face darkened slightly. This was the cost of speaking without thinking.
He said he would stay away from Jocelyn and if he went over to sleep with her, then he would not be able to explain himself.
Skyler closed his eyes and took two sleeping pills. After that, he lay down. The next morning, Skyler woke up in a bad mood. Even though he fell asleep with the help of the sleeping pills, it was not the
same as the feeling of holding Jocelyn to sleep naturally. He felt inexplicably irritated. During breakfast, Jocelyn asked him, “Mr. Moore, the plagiarism case is going to court today Will you attend?”
Jocelyn seemed to not be affected by their conversation last night at all. Skyler felt even worse now. He did not lift his head and said, “Yale will go.” Jocelyn nodded and quickly finished eating. Then, she grabbed her car keys and left. Jocelyn reached her office. After she clocked in, she quickly drew a draft. When it was almost time, she planned to head to the court.
Jocelyn and Lily’s plagiarism case started at 10 in the morning.
This was the first time Jocelyn saw Michael after her design was plagiarized by him.
Jocelyn did not plan to pay attention to him, but she did not think that he would take the initiative to come over to talk to her. “Jocelyn, how are you these days?” There were a lot of reporters nearby and Jocelyn figured it would be inappropriate for her to fly into a rage now.
Her face was cold. “I’m great.”
Michael sighed and put on a show in front of the reporters. “Jocelyn, I know you’re mad that Lily plagiarized your design. To be honest, Auntie Yennis and I are mad too. However, she’s still your sister at the end of the day. You should forgive her no matter what the verdict is.” Jocelyn did not think that Michael would say something like this in front of the reporters.
If she said she would not, people would start talking. If she said she would, she would not be able to swallow this anger.
In the end, Lily did not forget to add fuel to the fire at this moment.
She walked over here looking pale like she was extremely fragile and vulnerable. It seemed that she was about to collapse at any moment and she also had bandages around her wrist.
Jocelyn was worried that she would stage an accident in front of everyone, so she subconsciously took a step back.
In the end, Lily bent down and bowed 90 degrees to Jocelyn in front of the reporters. “Big Sis, I’m sorry. I was wrong back then and I owe you an apology.” This material belongs to NôvelDrama.Org.
She sounded like she was crying and she remained in a bow looking pitiful. “Big Sis, I was wrong. Please forgive me, okay?”
Jocelyn stared at Lily with a stiff expression. She could not rebuke Lily in front of the reporters. However, Lily would be dreaming if she thought that Jocelyn would forgive her for what she did.
Jocelyn was in a dilemma, and she had an unpleasant look on her face.
At this moment, someone started to feel sorry for Lily. “Actually… They’re sisters so Jocelyn shouldn’t force her into too much trouble, right?” “Lily looks so pitiful. She’s hurt and yet she’s still here at court.” “Anyone can make mistakes, Jocelyn should just forgive Lily. She’s already apologized and Jocelyn is still pursuing this. She’s so unreasonable.”
Sometimes, some people would start to educate others with their mouths even if this did not happen to them.
Jocelyn clenched her fists and her face turned dark she did not expect that Lily would still pretend to look pitiful in front of the reporters after Jocelyn took her to court
What was more hateful was that people would always be quick to forgive when they were not the ones suffering. It made them seem like they were such forgiving people.
The reporters’ cameras recorded this scene clearly and Jocelyn’s face was dark. She seemed to have lost before the court session began.
At this moment, a sarcastic scoff could be heard.
A carefree voice said, “If apologies work, why do we still need the police?”.
