Chapter 43 She Won't Believe His Nonsenses
Jocelyn's beauty was obvious and incisive with perfect and delicate facial features. When she smiled, a pair of charming little dimples would appear beside her mouth. She deserved to be called the beauty with dimples.
This might be the main reason why she could attract all men's attention once she appeared. She had a magic power that could make people unforgettable.
Ernest was waiting for the chance, staring at the glowing woman. When he first saw her, she was just 18 and was a little naive and immature. But five years later, she had been a enchanting woman with unique beauty, like a beautiful blooming poppy flower.
It was amazing. Having been suppressed and framed at that year, Ernest thought she would have committed suicide by jumping into the sea. Instead, she appeared again after five years.
Who helped her escape from the dilemma at that time secretly?
He had tried all approaches but still failed to find out who it was.
Now, looking at Jocelyn and Todd, Ernest knew that the Garner family and the Murray family had always been in good relationship. He wondered whether it was Todd who helped Jocelyn?
If it was Todd, then it was be very hard for him to get The Phoenix Queen back because of the collaboration of Jocelyn and Todd.
During the reception, Jocelyn was hit by someone, and the wine was splashed on her white dress.
"You okay? Do you want to change clothes?" Todd asked.
"No, I'll go to the bathroom." Jocelyn said and left the reception.
When she walked out of the Exhibition Hall 2 and reached the corner, dealing with the wine stain on her dress with her head down, she didn't notice that someone was lurking nearby.
Suddenly, Jocelyn's mouth was covered by someone and she was dragged into a room.
So many men were ready inside that Jocelyn had no chance to escape. She was tied up quickly and a rag was put into her mouth.
"Hmm..."
Looking at these men looked like bodyguards in front of her, Jocelyn had some ideas about who they were. They were probably sent by Ernest.
What bad luck!
She shouldn't have left the reception alone!
Soon, her guess was confirmed. Ernest entered the room.
His face was gloomy and frightening. After coming in, he asked all men to wait outside. He wanted to talk to Jocelyn alone.
Seeing Ernest approaching her, Jocelyn frowned, struggled and whined, signaling him to let her go.
Ernest stopped in front of her and looked down at her with a sneer, "Jocelyn, I've given you a chance last time, but you're so stubborn that you refused it! You think I can't do anything with you for you have the support of Todd? Listen, I've run out of patience. You'd better tell me where it is now!" This content © 2024 NôvelDrama.Org.
Jocelyn turned her face away, telling him that she had no idea.
Ernest pinched her chin and turned her face back, "Jocelyn, look at you now. You're in my hand. Even if Todd finds you missing, he can't find you. What do you think I should do with you? Huh?"
Had he ever treated her well?
The frame-up five years ago pushed her into hell.
She had no choice and lived so miserably. He and Theresa hurt her so badly!
It couldn't simply be described as hatred!
Jocelyn couldn't say a word, so she just glared at him. Her eyes turned red and were full of hatred. She wished she could kill the man in front of her!
Ernest took out the rag in her mouth and began to throw out the bait. He said patiently, "I used to be your boyfriend anyway, so I won't be that heartless. I can promise you that if you want to return to Icehive, you're always welcome. What do you think? Do you want to be a star again? I can help you. I'll make you the same as before!"
"Five years ago, I trusted you too much. I didn't expect that you and Theresa would frame me together! What... Do you think I will trust you again?"
Jocelyn was not moved, because she would not believe his nonsenses at all.
Even if she could be the same as before, her wounds in the past wouldn't be cured.
Seeing Jocelyn's refusal, Ernest pulled a long face again, "Don't be silly! If you keep refusing me, I'll drive you out of the city. Even if you want to be a star again, no company will accept you!"
"So what? Don't think that Icehive is the only top company!"
Jocelyn was so stubborn that she refused to tell him anything about the source.
Having tried all the ways, Ernest still couldn't persuade her. He threatened her, "I'll give you the last chance! If you don't give it back to me! I'll let someone take your naked photos and post them online! I'll see how you can live in the city!"
He was really despicable. How could he say such shameless words!
Jocelyn glared at him and said, "Ernest, even if you do so, I won't give it to you! You shameless despicable villain!"
"Don't force me!"
Ernest choked her neck in anger. Jocelyn soon felt short of breath.
Help...
Who could help her?
...
In the VIP room of Mermaidshine, Calvin was playing cards with serval friends.
Marcus entered the room and told Calvin that Jocelyn was here. Calvin said nothing but continued to play.
Marcus had no idea about what Calvin was thinking about. Should he take Jocelyn here?
Since Calvin didn't say anything, he couldn't make the decision by himself. So Marcus went back to find Jocelyn and protect her.
Ryder heard what Marcus said. He knew that a woman came to find Calvin. He said, "Calvin, who's that woman? Bring her here to distract you, then we may not keep losing"
They had never won Calvin. They all doubted whether Calvin cheated. Otherwise, why was he so lucky and why he could win every time.
At this time, Marcus went back worriedly. He told Calvin that Jocelyn was missing. Calvin stopped playing cards and left directly.
"Hey, Calvin, are you leaving?"
Calvin ignored him but left the room with Craig and Marcus.
"He must have got the bad cards and don't want to play anymore. Let me see!"
Ryder thought that Calvin quit in purpose. He opened his cards and found that it was the best type. So scared was he that he patted his chest, "My god. Thanks to Calvin's quit, otherwise I may lose my pants!"
