Chapter 174
The gangsters got control over the situation and attacked in an instant.
All of a sudden, countless steel pipes fell on Skyler’s back which made him groan in pain. During the
chaos, he was hit on the leg which caused him to stumble and land on the ground with one knee.
Jocelyn’s eyes shot open and her expression drastically changed. “Stop it!” Not only did the gangsters
ignore him but they began to hit him more viciously. The man sneered and said sarcastically in Jocelyn’s
ear, “Yo, you’re still trying to help the pretty boy!” Jocelyn was so worried that she was full of tears and
her voice was trembling. “Skyler, don’t worry about me. If you keep resisting, you’re going to get yourself
killed!” Skyler was curled on the ground with his head between his arms. He laid there motionless and
Jocelyn’s voice was hoarse from crying.
The man finally blew off some anger so he waved his hand and said, “Tie him up! We’ll talk when we get
to the location!”
Skyler was wounded. He lifted his gaze and looked at everyone with an icy expression.
There were more than a dozen opponents. Even if he could defeat them, it was impossible to protect
Jocelyn from harm.
He let them tie his wrists together with a sullen face and injuries. Yale was at the hotel so he would do
something if Skyler was missing
Now, he could only take one step at a time and not be rash.
Skyler and Jocelyn’s hands and feet were tied and they were thrown into a large van. In the van, Jocelyn
quickly said with her trembling voice, “Skyler, are you okay? Where are you hurt?”
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtSkyler shook his head and muttered, “I’m fine!”
Jocelyn burst into tears. “How can you be fine after getting beaten like that! It’s my fault for getting you
involved!”
Skyler’s face was hurt and he looked at Jocelyn with eyes deep like a sea of stars. “I’m really fine, don’t
cry!” Jocelyn cried harder when she heard that.
The van bounced as it drove on a bumpy dirt road and it almost shook the soul out of their bodies.
The man sitting in the passenger seat was calling his hirer.
Jocelyn held her breath and tried to listen to who was trying to kidnap her. “Boss, we caught a pretty boy
too! He was planning to send the woman back to the hotel. He
should be the director that you mentioned who would be accompanying her. Should we keep them
together or separate them?”
Jocelyn could not hear what the other party had said but the man kept nodding. “Alright, alright. Then
we’ll lock them up together and wait for you to arrive!”
The man hung up the phone and began to chat with his subordinates. Alas, Jocelyn and Skyler were
sent to a small remote village where the two of them were locked up together in a mud-clad house.
After some time had passed, Jocelyn was sleepy after being tied up in the dark room. She wanted to ask
how Skyler was when a woman’s voice suddenly came from outside. “Are they inside?” “Yes, yes, yes!
Right in this house!”
Jocelyn was stunned as she felt that this voice was incredibly familiar.
The man’s voice was flattering and greasy. “Boss, I’m telling you that the woman looks strange. We’ll
wait for you to be done or else maybe you could let us have a good time!”
“Sure, treat it as your reward! Play whatever you’d like!” The woman’s tone was full of malice.
Jocelyn’s body stiffened and her face twisted. Skyler quietly said, “Don’t be rash!”
Jocelyn nodded and the tattered wooden door was open from the outside.
It seemed to be completely dark outside and had no sign of what time it could be.
Jocelyn waited in the dark as a light shone from outside and the piercing light caused Jocelyn to shut her
eyes.
The familiar voice shouted her name, “Jocelyn White!”
Jocelyn whipped her head up and through the dim light from outside, she could clearly see the woman in
front of her. Her voice was a little distorted. “Giada?”
Giada laughed coldly. “Yeah, it’s me, what’s wrong? You didn’t expect that it was me who sent them after
you?”
She saw Jocelyn’s itinerary on Abel’s phone and arranged for someone to come to Greene City to kidnap
Jocelyn.
She thought that it was the perfect opportunity as she thought that Skyler was not present and if she
killed Jocelyn here, he would never have guessed she was behind it.
The room was dark and Skyler was sitting in a corner where the light from outside did not shine too so
Giada completely did not notice him. She was only looking at Jocelyn who was sitting facing the door.
Jocelyn was in disbelief. “You did this? Was it just to get revenge for being caught switching my design
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmdraft?” Giada took a step forward and her tone was dull. “Do you really think that this is about the design
draft?”
Jocelyn’s voice was quiet. “What else could it be? Giada, I don’t think that I wronged you!” Giada
laughed and gritted her teeth. “You think so? Then you’re so self-righteous. Jocelyn, do you have any
idea how much I hate you?
“When I first met you, you hit me and made me lose my reputation. My cousin wanted to get justice for
me which resulted in a game of pool with you which you won effortlessly. Who do you think you are?
You’re just a useless girl who’s not loved by the White family. What qualities do you have to be compared
with me, but…
Skyler still likes a b*tch like you. Which part of me isn’t the same as you that made him look down on
me? He wanted to break my hand for you!”
Giada’s tone was full of hatred to the point where she wanted to eat Jocelyn.
Jocelyn looked at her with a blank expression. “Didn’t he not break your hand in the end?” When Giada
heard this, she suddenly burst into a maniacal laugh. She strode toward and grabbed Jocelyn’s chin.
“Yeah, speaking about this, it pisses me even more. Why can a single word or look from you change
Skyler’s mind?”
She pushed away Jocelyn’s chin. “You fickle b*stard. Do I look like I need you to kind to me and
intercede for me? Stop being so self-righteous. A b*tch like you couldn’t seduce my cousin yet you want
to cling onto Skyler. Today, I’m going to ruin your face and see how you’re going to seduce men in the
future!”
Giada said and shouted angrily towards the outside. “Draco, bring me a knife!”
