Chapter 144
The atmosphere was very awkward for a while. The family doctor was a bit embarrassed. “Mr. Moore, Miss White said that you were clawed by a cat and she invited me over to give you the vaccine for rabies and a tetanus shot!” Skyler’s expression was incredibly foul. “It won’t kill me!” Jocelyn pursed her lips helplessly and struggled to understand Skyler’s awkward personality. He was not actually as cold as he appeared yet he insisted on making himself unapproachable The family doctor laughed. “Mr. Moore, under normal circumstances, it’s true that it won’t kill you since the possibility of getting rabies after being injured by a cat or dog is very slim but who would know if they’ve been infected? The injection is just a prevention method!” Skyler’s expression was so upset. “Come in!”

Skyler sat on the study’s sofa and the doctor quickly took out the antiseptic solution to help him clean the wound.
Jocelyn quiet stood at the side as the doctor gave Skyler the shot and bandaged the wound.
Jocelyn saw the doctor out and returned to the study.
The study’s door was open so she walked straight in. Skyler saw her and his expression was surprised. “Why are you back?”
Jocelyn pursed her lips. “I came to apologize to you on behalf of Whitie! He’s closer to me and doesn’t understand what we’re saying so he thought that you were going to hurt me! Please don’t be upset with him!”
Skyler snorted coldly. “You thought I’d be upset at him!”
Jocelyn pouted. “I know that you’re more upset with me than Whitie. I only have myself to blame for the situation with Chad and the other two. It has nothing to do with others and your initial intentions were also for my own good. I truly was ungrateful today, I’m sorry!”
Skyler’s face was cold and his attitude was indifferent. “There’s no need to apologize. I’m not upset at you and don’t think that you’re any different from any other woman just because I helped you.”
When he was done speaking, he immediately turned away and frowned fiercely.
He never considered watching what he said!
In reality… he did not mean it that way!
As a result, when he realized what he had said, Jocelyn coldly replied, “I know, you don’t need to remind me. I’m just occupying a position in your accounts. I’m aware of that and won’t have any other plans. Today, I apologized just for the sake of my conscience!”
Skyler’s mood worsened and he looked at Jocelyn mockingly. “If you didn’t have any other plans then why did you call the doctor over to give me a vaccine for rabies in the middle of the night?”
Jocelyn was neither humble nor arrogant as she calmly looked at him. “Mr. Moore, be reasonable. I was just afraid that you would get rabies and I would do the same for anyone else. Also, I know you had good intentions but don’t use this method to help me in the future. You weren’t present at the scene of the accident. It was very tragic and it still makes me sick to my stomach when I think about it!”
Skyler was so angry that he wanted to strangle Jocelyn.
He glared at her and laughed coldly. “Is that so? You would do the same for anyone else?” Jocelyn thought that Skyler felt some intentions from her toward him so she quickly said, ” It’s true, my attitude
wouldn’t change no matter who it is!” Skyler clenched his teeth in anger. “Get out, now!” Jocelyn’s pupils flashed in confusion. She looked at Skyler sadly and thought that he was still upset at her being ungrateful. She could only mumble, “Rest soon, Mr. Moore.” She politely left when she was done and closed the study door for Skyler. Skyler shoved everything off the desk in anger. Jocelyn flinched when she heard the noise from the study but turned to return to her room. She did not know who would be able to tolerate Skyler’s cold and angry character. The next morning When Jocelyn was eating, Skyler was already gone. He seemed to be very angry about last night’s events by the looks of it. Jocelyn felt guilty when she thought about how he helped her retrieve the letter but was misunderstood.
It looked like she needed to find the time to properly apologize to Skyler and explain her behavior.
This time it was her that owed him one.
Jocelyn had just reached the office and stepped out of the elevator when she saw Davis standing at the design department’s reception. He was holding breakfast in one hand as he talked to Yuni.
Yuni had a light smile on her face as she looked at Davis warmly.
Other than Jocelyn and Fiona, Yuni was one of the best designers in the design department.
As soon as Jocelyn took a step forward, she heard Davis who had his back turned against her say to Yuni, “Yuni, you don’t have to bring breakfast for me anymore. You’re already in a rush when you wake up so you don’t have to waste your time making my breakfast, it’s too much work!”
He had always been guessing who was bringing him breakfast every morning.
Until today where he saw Yuni carefully place the breakfast on the counter when he arrived which made him believe that it was Yuni.
Yuni laughed without denying it and just lightly said, “It’s not too much work!” Earlier she was just curious about it so she picked it up to take a closer look but had not expected Davis to misunderstand!
The smile on her face widened. Since the person who was sending him breakfast never showed up, she did not need to deny it when Davis thought that it was her.
She wanted to let this wonderful misunderstanding go on!
Jocelyn’s delicate face immediately sank when she heard the conversation between the two of them.

If she was not mistaken, the breakfast Davis was holding in his hand was the loving breakfast Lexie made for him.
–
Except, Lexie did not dare to give it to Davis directly and was afraid of people finding out so she would arrive early every morning and take the opportunity to leave it in the reception when no one was around with a note indicating that it was for Davis.
However, how did it become so that Yuni was the one who made it?
Not only that but judging by Davis’s attitude, he obviously believed that Yuni was the one that made him breakfast and even worried that she did not have enough time. Published by Nôv'elD/rama.Org.
HAIIII
The part that angered Jocelyn the most was that Yuni did not deny it!

Jocelyn was furious but she could not just rush over and expose Yuni’s lie. If Davis knew that Lexie was the one that made his breakfast then Lexie’s feelings would definitely not be able to stay hidden! Jocelyn could not make these decisions regarding her feelings for Lexie. She stared at Yuni darkly and walked toward them with an upset expression.
