Chapter 101
“Where did this come from?” There were intense undertones of rage in Jocelyn’s voice.
The photo that Michael had sent to Jocelyn was in a thick, yellowing envelope. The words written on the envelope indicated that it was for Jocelyn.
Jocelyn would not mistake the handwriting. This was her mother’s elegant handwriting. Besides, her mother had never written her any letters while she was still alive.
Now that she saw this yellowing envelope, it could only mean that her mother had left her a letter before passing away.
It was a pity that Michael had discovered it and kept it instead.
This letter was in Michael’s hands right now!
Jocelyn felt beyond infuriated. She did not expect Michael to behave so treacherously by keeping the letter that her mother had written to her.
Michael could tell how Jocelyn was suppressing her rage from the other end of the call. He could clearly hear the sounds of her panting as well.
He tsked nonchalantly and asked, “You’re asking me where I got this from?”
“My mother wrote this letter for me!” Jocelyn said in a firm tone.
“That’s right, your mother wrote it for you, but so what? She was a fool! She insisted on sending it to you through the standard post before she passed away! Otherwise, I wouldn’t have managed to get my hands on it!” Michael had no intentions to lie to Jocelyn about where he had gotten the letter from
“You’re treacherous! How can you do this? You’re invading my privacy!” Jocelyn was so angered that her hands started trembling. She could not believe that this person was her father.
Michael chuckled lightly. He was still calm. “You get angry so easily. You’re still a child!”
“Return the letter to me!” Jocelyn said in an extremely stiff voice.
Michael scoiled and said, “Of course… I can return it to you, but you must find a way to let Lily join Prosperity Jewelry!”
“That’s impossible!” Jocelyn rejected his suggestion without even considering it.
The tone of Michael’s voice grew icier as he said, “Since it’s impossible for you to do so, I’ll burn this letter. You won’t ever be able to find out the contents of this letter!”
There was an extremely unpleasant expression on Jocelyn’s face as she shouted, “This is an invasion of my privacy! Aren’t you afraid that I’ll sue you?”
Michael did not mind at all. “You can sue me all you like. Jocelyn White, do you really think that I’ll be afraid of you? Let me tell you this. If you dare to sue me, I’ll definitely burn this letter before going to court!”
“You might now know this, but this letter contains your mother’s greatest secret in her life. She wanted to tell you about it before she passed away, but she didn’t have the courage to tell you personally. She had no choice but to let you know through such means! However, she would never have expected this letter to fall into my hands!”
Jocelyn had never felt so aggrieved before. She was beyond angered. However, she could not act rashly right now!
She had to admit that she was afraid Michael would destroy this letter!
Her mother, Grace Cooke, was the person who treated her the best in the world. She loved her mother a lot.
Now that her mother had passed away, the letter that she had written for her was in someone else’s hands. She could not accept this at all.
She suppressed her rage and asked, “Father, can’t you change the condition instead?”
Given Skyler’s personality, he would never agree to let Lily join Prosperity Jewelry! Content is property of NôvelDrama.Org.
However, Michael was extremely adamant. “That’s impossible! Jocelyn, I want you to convince Skyler Moore to let Lily join the company as your wedding gift to her before her marriage. I don’t care what means you resort to. Anyways, I just want to see the results. I’ll only give you the letter after you let Lily join Prosperity Jewelry!”
As soon as Michael finished speaking, he hung up on the phone straight away before Jocelyn could say anything.
Jocelyn stared at her phone with reddened eyes.
She wanted to know what her mother had written to her in the letter extremely badly!
Her instinct told her that this letter was extremely important. That was because Michael’s attitude toward her had changed not long after her mother passed away.
Skyler did not return to Villa No. 1 that night.
However, Jocelyn’s heart was filled with worries. She did not notice his absence at all.
Logically, after everything that happened last night, the relationship between her and Skyler should be rather awkward.
However, Jocelyn had encountered too many problems today. She did not have the time to think about anything else,
On Monday, Jocelyn had to head to work,
She had not slept the entire night. Her eyes were bloodshot and tired.
Lexie just arrived at the office today. She looked for Jocelyn as soon as she finished reporting her attendance. She was shocked when she noticed her terrible condition. “Jocelyn, are you alright?”
Jocelyn shook her head and said, “I’m fine!”
Lexie frowned and said, “Look at you. You don’t seem alright at all!”
Jocelyn did not want to bring up the letter. She told Lexie about how her design drafts had gotten switched when she noticed the worried expression on her face.
Lexie was beyond angered. “Who would do such an immoral thing?!”
Jocelyn shook her head and said, “I don’t know. Don’t be angry. President Moore is looking into it. I believe they will find out everything soon!”
As soon as Jocelyn finished speaking, Yale came to the design department.
Yale looked at Jocelyn and said, “Miss White, please come with me!”
Jocelyn nodded and asked Lexie to return to the IT department. She got up and went out.
Lexie glanced at the design director’s office and left unwillingly.
The employees in the design department did not know what was going on. They all stared at each other.
A dark glint flashed across Giada’s gaze. She was seated next to Fiona. Did something happen?
Nas
Jocelyn walked out of the design department with Yale. Both of them entered a small conference room by the side.
Millie, the receptionist, was inside the room. She seemed extremely antsy.
Jocelyn instantly understood that Yale wanted her to cross-check her facts with Millie.
OS
She asked in a low voice, “Mr. Ziegler, does this incident have anything to do with Millie?”
Yale shook his head and said, “I don’t know. The surveillance camera recordings have been deleted. President Moore said that someone within the company must have switched your design
draft!”
Jocelyn’s face darkened as she walked toward her.
Before she could say anything, Millie looked like she was about to burst into tears. “Miss White, this really has nothing to do with me! Back then, I was at the toilet. I didn’t know what happened at all. Mr. Ziegler told me that the surveillance cameras were broken. Someone must have secretly switched the design drafts, but I didn’t know there were any problems with the design drafts! I posted the drafters after returning from the toilet!”
This was the excuse that Millie had come up with a long time ago.
After all, she had gone to the toilet, and the surveillance camera recordings had been deleted. There was not any proof. Nobody dared to say that she was the one behind it.
She had an extremely panicked expression on her face. However, she felt immensely calm.
After listening to Millie’s words, Jocelyn turned around and glanced at Yale. “Mr. Ziegler, can’t the recordings be recovered?”
Yale felt slightly exasperated. He had found someone to do so, but their skills were limited.
He shook his head and said, “The people from the IT team have already tried recovering them yesterday, but it wouldn’t work!”
Jocelyn’s gaze flashed. “Look for Lexie! She should be able to recover it!”
