Chapter 107
Jocelyn’s expression changed slightly as she looked at Skyler instinctively.
Skyer remained expressionless. He spoke in a light tone. The tone of his voice made it seem like he was talking about some everyday matter instead of such cruel words!
Giada’s body weakened as she raised her head to look at Skyler frantically. Tears spilled down her eyes.
She grabbed Abel’s sleeve and choked out, “Cousin, I was wrong! I really made a mistake! Save me!”
Abel turned around to look at Skyler with a stiff expression on his face. He said in a flat tone,” She’s a designer. Don’t you think that you’re being way too harsh on her?”
No matter what mistakes Giada made, she was still his cousin! No matter how much he disliked Giada, he could not watch as her future got ruined just like that. Skyler asked softly, “Am I being harsh on her?” Nobody replied to his question. Skyler added, “Abel, I initially wanted both of her hands. After all, why would she need her hands if she loves acting so sneakily? I’m just asking for one of her hands right now. Do you still think that I’m being harsh on her?”
Abel’s expression stiffened. “This was truly her fault…”
“Since you think that it’s her fault as well, don’t you think that she should pay the price for it?” Skyler asked with a cold expression on his face.
Abel had a stony expression on his face. He was speechless after Skyler asked him this question. He was not his usual loud and shameless self in front of Skyler anymore.
Jocelyn’s feelings were beyond complicated right now! Skyler suddenly looked at Jocelyn and said, “Jocelyn White, look at this. Do you think Abel deserves your trust? You believed that even if the account
that transferred the funds to Millie belonged to him, he wasn’t the one behind it!”
His voice grew icier as he asked, “But what now? Even if he wasn’t the one behind it, he’s still taking the side of the culprit. Do you think that your belief in him is well placed?”
Jocelyn immediately raised her head to look at Skyler. Her gaze then landed on Abel’s face.
Jocelyn felt extremely conflicted. Naturally, she would not be able to forgive someone for switching her design draft behind her back.
However, she had never thought of taking someone else’s hand. This was the first time she had seen the dark side of Skyler. To be honest, she was rather frightened.
Abel noticed that Jocelyn was staring at him without saying anything. He simply felt extremely awkward.
He shut his eyes and said harshly, “Skyler Moore, you can do whatever you want to Giada.
You’re right. One should pay the price for their mistakes!” Giada was so shocked that her legs turned into jelly after hearing what Abel said.
She kneeled down and sobbed desperately. “Cousin, you can’t do this to me! You can’t abandon me! How can I make a living without a hand?”
Abel closed his eyes in determination and remained silent. Giada looked at Abel’s face in desperation. She turned around and kneeled down in front of Skyler straight away. She reached out and tried to grab the cuff of his pants. Exclusive © content by N(ô)ve/l/Drama.Org.
However, Yale stopped her from doing so. “Miss Cain, President Moore doesn’t like to come into contact with dirty things!”
The look on Giada’s face was extremely unpleasant. “Skyler, please have mercy on me. It was all my mistake. I’ll apologize to Jocelyn White. I won’t do anything like that anymore. Please have mercy on me. Is that alright?” Giada kept slamming her head against the ground with all her might. Her forehead started bleeding. She had never felt so afraid ever since she was young. However, she was really terrified this time. She liked Skyler, so she knew that this man was completely capable of doing something like that.
She did not expect something like this to happen to her. She thought that if Skyler found out that this incident was related to Abel, he would not do anything to him. After all, Abel and Skyler were extremely close back then. They only became rivals after a series of incidents that happened after that. Everyone else only knew that Skyler and Abel were always going against each other. However, they did not know that Skyler would never do anything to seriously harm Abel. She did not expect things to be different this time around. Skyler still insisted on investigating things thoroughly after finding out that Abel was behind it! She hated herself for not being furtive enough. Skyler had managed to find out that she was behind everything. Jocelyn looked at how desperate Giada was right now. She then recalled how haughty and arrogant she had been previously. She felt rather uncomfortable about it. She stood up and tried to walk outside to get some air. As soon as she stood up, Skyler shouted coldly, “Sit down!”
