Chapter 19
Skyler could not describe what he felt the moment he caught sight of the scene within the room.
If he were one step late, Jocelyn would have been violated by this man. She was unconscious as she lay on the bed quietly like a child. It was as if she were oblivious to everything happening in her surroundings.
He could not imagine that one could actually fall for such a scheme even within the confines of one’s own house. Somehow, Skyler recalled her lively gaze and unyielding attitude when she argued with him this afternoon. If she knew about what had happened, what would her reaction be then? He walked up and dragged Chad down from the bed. He then threw him by the side like a piece of trash. He quickly put Jocelyn‘s skirt back on her. C had was stunned. “You… Who are you? What are you trying to do? Why are you disrupting my happy hour?” In the twenty years or so that Skyler had lived, he reckoned that he had experienced all sorts of hardships and obstacles. Regardless of how dirty something was, he could still face it without a change in his expression. However, he would never expect something like this to happen to Jocelyn in her own home. This was simply beyond terrifying! He turned around with a dark expression on his face. He looked like a grim reaper.
He grabbed the belt that Chad had thrown onto the bed and used it to whip Chad.
Chad shouted out in shock, “You can‘t hit me! I‘m the second young master of the Jones household!”
However, his words did not stop Skyler‘s actions at all. Red marks immediately appeared on Chad‘s body. Only the sound of the belt whipping through the air could be heard.
Chad cried in pain and howled in desperation. He blurted out a flurry of derogatory words as he scolded Skyler. “Why are you hitting me? What are you? You…Ah!” 1 Initially, Chad could still blurt out a few sentences. Toward the end, he could not even utter a single word. It was so painful that he could only cry out in pain. Skyler seemed to be possessed by a vengeful demon. He was so terrifying that it sent chills up one‘s spine.
Chad could not bring himself to move when Skyler whipped him. Skyler finally threw the belt to the groun d when it snapped from all the whipping.
He looked at Chad, who was lying on the ground like a rag doll. He then took out a handkerchief from the pocket of his suit jacket in a casual manner. He cleaned his hands with the handkerchief carefully. After that, he threw it at Chad‘s face with a look of disg ust.
Meanwhile, Yale kept Michael, Yennis, and Lily outside the door of the room.
Michael‘s heart sunk when he heard the anguished cries coming from within the room.
He did not expect Skyler to appear all of a sudden.
Michael‘s palms were drenched with sweat. Chad had gotten beaten up so badly in their house.
The Jones household definitely would not let this slide easily.
Besides, he had directly offended Skyler in the current situation! This content © 2024 NôvelDrama.Org.
Michael was so frightened that chills crept down his back.
Just then, Skyler took large strides out of the room. Jocelyn was wrapped safely in his arms. His suit jacket was draped across her.
Michael immediately spoke, “President…President Moore, listen to my explanation! I…”
Skyler ignored him. He told Yale, “Search the room for any recording equipment and take all of them away!”
After that, he walked past Michael, Tennis, and Lily. He then carried Jocelyn downstairs. Michael started panicking. He turned around and slapped Yennis across the face. “B*tch, this was all your doing! I asked Jocelyn to go upstairs to rest since she was drowsy. Why was Chad Jones in her room?” Yennis immediately understood what he was doing. Michael was trying to push all the blame onto an ignorant woman like her to appease Skyler’s rage. After all, Skyler would not kill her over this incident. However, if Michael spoke in such a way, he would be able to avoid being on bad terms with Skyler for the time being!
She held her face. Her eyes were red-rimmed. She did not dare to say anything.
Michael noticed Skyler slowing down in his steps. He immediately added, “I know that you
don’t feel good after what happened to Lily today, but you can’t do this. Jocelyn is my daughter. How dare you treat her like that? Now that things have progressed to this step, how should I explain things to President Moore and the Jones household?”
Yennis started sobbing softly. She did not say anything. It was as if she had admitted to everything that he had accused her of. A sarcastic glint flashed across Skyler’s gaze when he heard what she said. How could something like this happen within the house without Michael‘s permission? He slowly turned around and looked at Michael expressionlessly. “Ask the Jones to go after me however they wish to if that thing upstairs dies or becomes handicapped!”
Michael immediately nodded. Thank you for your consideration, President Moore. However, Jocelyn is my daughter, you… It won‘t be appropriate for you to take her away just like that. Although I wasn‘t aware today and almost le
daughter…” As soon as he finished speaking, Yale walked out with three cameras. “President Moore, these are all the recording equipment that I managed to find in this room!” Skyler hugge her here so that you guys can continue filming her?” Michael‘s expression changed slightly. “…” Skyler fixed a derisive gaze on Mich him in a tone that was beyond icy, “You don‘t need to act in front of me. It isn’t easy to fool me. It’s my first time meeting my father in–law, but you‘ve already sent my wife onto another man’s bed. How eye– opening! Don‘t worry, I‘ll remember what you’ve done this time around!” .
