Zayn said up till this point, he had no intention of keeping anything from her. “You weren’t the only one who drank that thing that night, many others did too. That time, Lynn also….” Jocelyn had known this for a long time. She made no comments and listened quietly.
Zayn continued, “Alas, she had been unlucky. She had been feeling ill at the time and went to rest in our guest room. Chad ended up mistaking her when he came to pick Yvonne up…”
Jocelyn was shocked. She really had not known about it!
Zayn was somewhat helpless as he said, “I knew it the next day. My mother knew something was off with Lynn and wanted me to stay with her. So, she had her stay in my guest room and got me to deliver some soup to Lynn. But I didn’t know anything, I had Chad help me make the delivery and Lynn mistook him for me!”
Jocelyn knew that Lynn liked Zayn, but she never thought that Lynn would sleep with Chad while mistaking him for Zayn. She really just… went out for wool and came home shorn! Jocelyn had no interest in prying into others’ private affairs. She blinked. “What does this have to do with Lily?”
Zayn answered truthfully, “Lynn is pregnant. You also know that you will be able to find this out in seven days. Also, too many people know about this and for Lynn’s reputation sake, the Quirrel family has deliberately asked Chad to marry her! But Chad has someone else he wants to marry!” Zayn looked at Jocelyn as he said this. What Michael said before flashed suddenly through Jocelyn’s mind, ‘Lily is getting married. If you help her get into Prosperity Jewelry, you can just take that as a wedding gift for her.’ She opened her mouth, still a little confused. “Are you trying to say that… Chad wants to marry Lily?”

Jocelyn never thought that Lily would now want to marry Chad after Michael had planned it so that she could not marry him previously. Zayn nodded helplessly. “That is the case. Since whatever happened with Lynn happened under our roof, we have to come up with something to tell them even if we are no longer becoming relatives with the Quirrel family. So I investigated Chad and found out that Lily and Chad had both been hooking up with each other for a long time. Lily probably was just trying to use Chad at first!”
Zayn glanced at Jocelyn. “I only found out in the last two days that it was Chad who sent those people when you saved me in that alley back then. When he got involved with Lily, he promised her that he would teach me a lesson on her behalf. However, God knows what happened but Chad actually ended up falling for Lily and wants to marry her!”
Jocelyn was utterly shocked. So, it had been Lily who got Chad to get back at Zayn.
Her face filled with anger. “She is deranged. You are trying to help as if you’re her parent. Just tell the truth. How can she…”
Zayn smiled, he did not really care about this matter.
He said, “Chad wants to marry Lily but in the end, he ruined Lynn that night. Going with reason, the Quirrel family is more powerful than the White family. Chad’s marriage to Lynn would be better than Lily but I heard that the White family seems to be connected with Skyler. I heard Prosperity Jewelry sued Lily, yet Lily can still join Prosperity Jewelry!” Jocelyn’s brows raised. So that was the case! She had wondered why Michael kept urging her to find a way to let Lily into Prosperity. This was the crux of the matter!
Zayn did not notice Jocelyn acting unusually and continued, “If Lily can still join Prosperity under such circumstances, it means that their relationship is really solid. Therefore, since the Quirrel family had
asked Chad to give Lynn an explanation, the Jones are still waiting.
“They are really treating Chad’s marriage as if they were going shopping. They want to find someone who can maximize their interests with! I also wonder how the Whites were able to get in touch with Prosperity. Supposedly, there are no other White family members in Prosperity Jewelry apart from you!” Jocelyn was a little embarrassed. Zayn did not know of her relationship with Skyler, but the White family all knew that they must have promised something to the Jones only then did they dare to refuse the Quirrel family
Jocelyn could even imagine that Michael had lied to Lily when he told her that he wanted Lily to enter Prosperity Jewelry and that he would give her his mother’s letter.
It was likely that after Chad and Lily had gotten married, Michael would still want to rely on her and gain the Quirrel family a foothold in Prosperity Jewelry! She pursed her lips. She had forgotten that she had hurt her leg and unconsciously tried to stand. “Director Claude, actually…” Just as she said those few words, she gasped at the sudden pain before sitting back down on the bed to take a breath.
Zayn quickly bent down and looked at her ankle carefully. He applied the medicine on her skillfully. “I’ll apply some medicine on you so it won’t hurt so much!” As he applied the medicine, he began to ask worriedly, “Are you all right? How did your ankle end up like this?” Outside the door, the moment Skyler came up to the door, he saw Zayn holding Jocelyn’s ankle while carefully applying medicine on her
He and Davis had met Lexie downstairs just now and Lexie had told Davis about their injuries. He asked where Jocelyn was and had found her but he did not expect to witness such a scene.
Zayn was a doctor. According to reason, this scene should be normal.
Skyler however, found that it irritated his eyes. He was just about to enter when he heard Jocelyn say, “This injury, it actually has a little to do with the incident I shared with you just now!”
Skyler was stunned and retracted a step.
He would bet that if he were to enter this moment, Jocelyn definitely would not tell the truth. He stood at the door quietly and listened in.
