Chapter 89: Chapter 89

Although Lynn and Zayn were not engaged, there was no one in Mauve City who did not know that the Claudes and the Quirrels had intended for them to marry.

Lynn’s expression suddenly changed. She stood up and stared at Yvonne seriously. “What do you mean? What are you talking about?”

Yvonne pursed her lips. “Do I look like I’m talking nonsense? The reason why I quarreled with her was because I saw her meet up with Director Claude several times. Jocelyn’s friend had been hospitalized before this and she used to go to the hospital every day. She would always meet up with Director Claude every time she went. I warned her once at the time, but she didn’t take my words seriously!”

Lynn’s expression was absolutely hideous. “Then why didn’t you tell me this before?!”

Yvonne sniffled in an aggrieved manner. “I didn’t want to offend Director Claude or make you worry. I thought of getting her to back off first after I confronted her but I didn’t expect her to flirt with Director Claude at the door of the mansion when she came in today. Her gaze had been seductive!”

“I got so mad then I couldn’t hold myself back. She hadn’t even arrived long so I caught her and gave her a warning but she not only didn’t take me seriously, she even got Director Claude’s support and acted against me. Didn’t you see how gallant he acted for her, he had been trying to defend her. She even spilled red wine all over me!” Yvonne said angrily.

Lynn clenched her hands and said, “You’re not lying to me, are you?”

Yvonne looked at Lynn angrily. “Lynnie, what do you mean by this? What good is it to me to lie to you?

What’s our relationship? Would you rather believe that b*tch Jocelyn over me?”

She looked very angry. “You’re making me angry and upset with this! You’re not seeing Jocelyn’s slyness, you’ve been deceived by her, and you even asked her to design for you. Her intentions clearly lie elsewhere. Look how long it’s been yet Director Claude doesn’t even hesitate the slightest to help her.

What kind of position are you putting yourself in?!”

Lynn’s expression was erratic because of the anger of being deceived.

She did not expect Jocelyn to hide so much about herself.

Yvonne was afraid that Lynn would not believe her and could not help adding more fuel to the fire. “Fine, even if you’re not willing to believe me, you should trust your own judgment. Don’t tell me you didn’t notice Director Claude’s every action toward Jocelyn outside just now. Is that the attitude one has toward an ordinary friend? It’s obvious that he cares about her!”

Lynn’s eyes are a little red. She had lost control of her emotions as she glared at Yvonne. “Stop talking!”

Yvonne shrunk her shoulders in fear. “Alright, alright, I won’t say anymore. Don’t be angry!”

Lynn suddenly felt so wronged. She had loved Zayn for so many years. How could a’lowly designer get ahead of her!

She clenched her teeth, taking a long time to calm down before she looked at Yvonne. “I’m sorry, I was in a bad mood just now. Don’t be angry. Thank you for warning me about Jocelyn, but I’ll handle the rest myself!”

She dared go after her man, she would make Jocelyn suffer a fate worse than death!

To make a woman’s life worse than death would naturally be to completely destroy her reputation.

Thinking of this, Lynn’s eyes flashed with intense hatred.

Yvonne kept her gaze low, but a smile of success spread from the corners of her mouth. She knew that Lynn would believe her.

It was inevitable. Jocelyn was the one who let herself get too close to Zayn without paying attention!

At that moment, Jocelyn was not aware that someone had come to loathe her.

She had changed her clothes and the moment she stepped out, Lexie called to her, “Are you okay?”

Jocelyn smiled. “I just changed my clothes. I’m fine!”

Lexie’s expression was a little off. She raised her chin towards the swimming pool. “Look who that is!”

Jocelyn was stunned when she looked toward where Lexie’s gaze was directed.

At a glance, she noticed that it was Skyler and Jim who were standing by the swimming pool with champagne in their hands.

However, Jim had smiled at her. Skyler was expressionless and had even turned his face away as if he had not noticed Jocelyn at all.

Jocelyn retracted her gaze and did not respond either.

Ever since Skyler gave her the card last time and she rejected it, he had been very cold to her. However, she did not care.

As long as their one-year marriage period lasts, she would have adequate ability to be able to protect herself and her uncle’s family, which was enough!

Lexie looked a little surprised. She looked at Jocelyn. “What’s going on between you and Skyler?”

She figured that these two had a marriage certificate between them regardless of whatever and lived under the same roof. So why were they so cold?

The corners of Jocelyn’s mouth twitched and answered sarcastically, “Nothing. Didn’t I say this before? We have an arrangement, that’s all!”

Lexie recalled that Jocelyn had mentioned that in Skyler’s eyes, she was a human pillow.

Her cold mood fluctuated. “Didn’t you mention that he held you to sleep before?”

Jocelyn smiled. “We haven’t slept in the same room for a long time. You think too much!”

Lexie frowned. “Is it possible that he likes you but is not honest about it? You know, many male chauvinist men are particularly hard-spoken, not to mention successful people like Skyler!”

Jocelyn looked at her and patiently said, “Stop making wild guesses. Apart from the fact that I don’t stay in the same room with him now, when we did before, he would hold me to sleep at most, and he’s also a deep sleeper!”

Lexie was silent. If a man was really interested in a woman, how could he hold her without any thoughts!

She was a little angry for Jocelyn and with a clear voice, she said, “So, now you’re given the cold treatment during the day but still used as a pillow at night?

Jocelyn did not expect Lexie to be so interested in this matter. She laughed and said none too happily, “Didn’t I already say this? We live separately now!”

Lexie still persisted. “Oh, I just want to say that he probably needs a human-shaped pillow. You can buy one online and give it to him!”

Seeing Lexie say this with her cold little face, Jocelyn could not help laughing. However, thinking of Skyler sleeping with a big doll in his arms made her laugh even more!
