Ma'am, The World Is Waiting For Your Divorce

Chapter 176 In the dark
Skyler fell over and collapsed onto Jocelyn’s body, the both of them colliding into the wall behind them. Jocelyn could hear
Skyler’s groaning as he tried to hold back the pain.
He used his body as a shield. The faint smell of mint filled Jocelyn’s nostrils as tears trickled down her face.
Jocelyn was panicking. She did not know that she could sound this anxious. “Are you okay, Skyler? What’s the matter with you?”
She did not know how deep the cut Giada made was and she could not stop her tears from flowing down her cheeks.
Giada did not expect this to happen. The knife in her hand clattered to the ground in an instant.
She was so shocked that her voice cracked. “Skyler!”
She took a step back in panic, a sob rising in her throat. Her tone was hysterical and confused as she spoke, “No...it wasn’t me!
I didn’t mean it! Why did you jump in front of her?”
She did not understand why things had ended up this way. She liked him so much, yet she was the one who hurt him.
Skyler endured his pain and was about to negotiate with Draco.
He knew better than Giada that at that moment, Draco wanted all of them to stay there.
Money made the world turn.
He was sure that if he could pay enough money and promise not to pursue this matter, a person like Draco would certainly
release him and Jocelyn willingly.
Before he could speak, however, a voice called out from the outside sharply. “Freeze!”
Before he could even react, a man rushed in and kicked Draco onto the ground, promptly restraining him.
Then, the bright beam of a flashlight illuminated the room.
A swarm of policemen rushed into the building, immediately arresting Draco and Giada. Yale Ziegler rushed in as well, his voice
filled with worry. “President Moore, Miss White!”

In a day, Jocelyn had gone to the hospital twice.
It was already 11 p.m.
Skyler was sent to the operating room to have his wounds patched up. Jocelyn thought about that moment in that remote mud
house, when he had rushed over to shield her, and felt tears welling in her eyes.
Even though Skyler did not want her to be deluded about his intentions, she was not heartless.
He put on a cold façade, but he had a kind heart. He was so nice to her. She could not help but be moved by his actions.
Yale saw how upset Jocelyn was and could not resist consoling her. “Don’t worry, Miss White. President Moore will be fine!”
When Jocelyn heard this, a sob rose in her throat. “Before he blocked the attack for me, he had already sustained serious
injuries!”
Yale did not know what to do. “Those were just shallow wounds. He’ll be fine!”
Just as Jocelyn was about to say something, the doors of the operating room swung open. Skyler was wheeled out. The stab
wound was on his back, so he was lying face-down on the hospital bed.
His face was pale, and Jocelyn rushed over immediately as soon as she saw him. “Skyler!”
Skyler glanced at her. He did not want to say anything at first, but when she saw her tearful gaze, an inexplicable feeling stirred
in his chest. “Why didn’t you call me Mr. Moore?”
He used to ask her to call him either “President Moore” or “Mr. Moore”. That way, he could put some distance between them.
However, he did not know when it began, but he started feeling uncomfortable every time she called him those names!

However, at that moment when she called his name, he could not help feeling a little sad.
He hoped she would not be so sad.
More tears welled up in Jocelyn’s eyes. “It’s my fault, Skyler. If you weren’t trying to save me, you wouldn’t have gotten hurt!”

When he saw her getting more upset, he frowned slightly and interrupted her. “This has nothing to do with you. It’s just an
accident!”
Jocelyn pursed her lips, a tense look in her gaze. “How are you feeling?”
She gave him a cautious look as if he were a glass doll. Skyler felt a little exasperated and said drily, “They’re just shallow
wounds, they’re not going to kill me! I’ll be discharged tomorrow!”
Jocelyn looked at him worriedly. “Really?”
Skyler had never seen this side of her. He looked at her, his voice turning gentle. “Yes, I didn’t even need anesthesia, why would
I need to lie to you?”
Skyler sighed internally. Even if he did not want to admit it, he could not deny his feelings toward Jocelyn.
His heart and soul were moved by a single person. He had never felt anything like this. It was terrible, and yet it felt a little sweet.
When he saw that Jocelyn had finally relaxed significantly, he let out a small sigh of relief. Even though everyone said that he
only had shallow wounds, Jocelyn still stayed with him all night.
The next day, Skyler was discharged from the hospital. May First Hotel. Jocelyn was waiting for Lexie to come over to her hotel
suite. Skyler was worried that something might happen to her again, so he forced her to stay here before she returned to Mauve
City. He stayed in the master bedroom next door. After Skyler was discharged from the hospital, he still attended the Ocean
Heart Jewelry Competition despite his injuries. Even though Jocelyn and Yale spent half the day advising him against it, their
efforts were futile. Therefore, Jocelyn added another label to Skyler’s personality. He was stubborn!
A knock sounded from the door and Jocelyn rushed over to open it.
The moment she opened it, she saw Lexie’s worried expression. Lexie was worried about Jocelyn’s allergies, so she made a
special trip from Mauve City yesterday. In the end, something happened to her again. Jocelyn did not want Lexie to worry, so she
told Lexie she had returned to the hotel and would meet her again today.
However, she did not expect that Lexie would be so anxious.
“Are you okay?” Lexie looked at her. “Weren’t you staying in a hotel with Davis? Why did you switch hotels?” Jocelyn pursed her
lips and pulled Lexie over to take a seat. “Calm down and take a seat first. I’ll explain everything!” She knew that it would be
difficult to hide the abduction from Lexie, so she told her the truth. When Lexie finished listening to the story, her usual calm

expression became painted with fury. “Did she think that laws don’t exist? Who does she think she is? How dare she thinks that
she can control the life and death of other people?”
Jocelyn quickly reassured her. “It’s fine, it’s fine. I’m here, safe and sound, aren’t I? Don’t be mad!”
Lexie’s face was expressionless. “I’ll stay at May First Hotel too. I’ll stay by your side until we return to Mauve City!”
Jocelyn pursed her lips hesitantly. “You... aren’t you staying with Davis? I swear I’m fine!”
Lexie’s voice came out in a bitter, mocking tone. Her lips trembled as she spoke. “It’s fine, I’ll keep you company. Besides,
Davis... he just sees me as a younger sister!” Jocelyn’s expression changed slightly. “Did he say that?”
