Jim’s eyes widened immediately. “What? It’s not Rhode? Then why are you so nice to her?” Skyler’s eyes flashed. “I’m not nice to her. She’s from the countryside and it wasn’t easy for her to get to this point. I don’t need to eradicate her over such a trivial matter.” In fact, the truth was that Skyler kissed Jocelyn that night while depending on the alcohol for courage.
For the first time, he acted according to his heart! Content protected by Nôv/el(D)rama.Org.
As a result, he was slapped by Jocelyn. Skyler left the North Court Villa and returned to the villa Jim hosted the party in. Rhode was still in the villa at the time, and when she saw Skyler come back, she poured him a drink without saying a word. Skyler was emotional for the first time in years that night. He asked Rhode why she came to this kind of party.
Rhode then told him about her situation.
She said that she was from the countryside, and she had six sisters. They were extremely poor. She came out to work hard and made her debut unexpectedly. She thought her dream was within reach, but after entering this field, she realized that this was a paradise for the rich. If she did not have money or power, it would be very hard for her if she wanted resources, She also told Skyler that she knew there was no free lunch in this world. She did not want to pretend to be innocent, she just wanted to get ahead and get out of that impoverished place as much as possible. Normally, Skyler would not care about such a thing at all.
There were many poor people in the world, and it was impossible for him to provide relief to all of them.
However, that night, it might be because Rhode had accompanied him through the most contradictory and the worst time of his life, so he understood Rhode a little bit.
Therefore, he acquiesced to the following scandals and resources. However, who was Jim? He was the master playboy who had so many women but never got into any trouble.
When Skyler said a girl from the countryside, Jim automatically started imagining a sob story. He could not stop from sighing ruefully, “It seems Rhode came up with this sob story in front of you.” Skyler gave him a side-eye and did not deny it.
Jim’s eyes shone. “However, if you don’t like her, who do you like?” He thought about it and suddenly, his expression became tense, and she looked at Skyler in disbelief, “Damn, do you like Jocelyn?”
Skyler’s expression was tense, and he leaned on the sofa, not saying a word, Jim said to himself, “No way, you seriously fell for Jocelyn. Although she’s good at fighting playing billiards, talented, and looks ethereal, but… I thought you two became husband and wife halfway and after you got through this, you’ll break and burn all the bridges.”
Skyler froze and said nothing.
Jim leaned in and stared at Skyler’s face. He looked left and right like he was looking at some rare treasure.
He could not help shaking his head. A complicated expression on his face. “No way, you really like her. Did you ask me relationship questions just to pursue her? No, no, this is a rare encounter in a thousand years. This is such a historical memorial, a moment of significance! I must remember this.”
Jim was so annoying that Skyler could not help looking at him coldly, “Can you answer the question?”
Jim sneered. Then, he cleared his throat. “Okay, I won’t keep you on the hook. We’re even closer than brothers anyway, so I won’t hide anything from you Pursuing a woman is actually quite tacky.”
Skyler looked at him blankly, still not speaking
Jim continued to keep Skyler on tenterhooks. “Women are all emotional animals. Of course, different ways work for different people. However, they also have something in common.
They like romance, and they prefer a lover who’s always nice to them.”
Skyler frowned slightly, going straight to the core of the question, and said sarcastically,” Have you ever done that to a woman? Is there any experimental basis for your words?” Jim suddenly laughed dryly. “Don’t bring me down. Forget it, I’ll go straight to the point. Il you want to pursue Jocelyn, just drive her to and from work, send her flowers and gifts, and go on a dinner date with her. Persevere and remember to do something romantic for her every day. After some time, you will naturally get her. After that, it’s time to…” Jim said, winking at Skyler with a meaningful look.
Skyler frowned, an incomprehensible expression on his face. “Then what?”
Jim coughed twice in embarrassment. “And then it’s time to do what two people should do, of course! Do you need to ask me about this?”
Skyler was silent. He looked at Jim and suddenly he wondered if it was reliable to ask this playboy for advice.
Jim thought Skyler did not understand, so he winked at him. “Skyler, don’t tell me you’re so innocent that you don’t understand what I was saying.”
Skyler gave him a cold look and lowered his eyes. It was unknown what he was thinking However, he kindly gave Jim an answer. “I understand.” jim immediately beamed. His tone was amorous when he said, “That’s about it.”
Skyler then looked at him coldly and apathetically before asking another question. “How can you be sure that she’s in love with you?”
Jim snapped his finger like he had experience in this. “This is easy. If she’s jealous because of you, then it means she’s in love with you.” When Skyler heard the word ‘jealous’, his eyes darkened, and he did not say anything.
Tim tried his best to come up with a plan for Skyler. “I think you shouldn’t explain your relationship with Rhode to her. You can use it to test Jocelyn to see if she’ll get jealous.”
Skvler did not say anything, but instead, he was starting to wonder if this plan would work in his heart.
Jim understood that Skyler was serious this time. Back then he was dating Josie, he did not take it seriously at all. He lamented, “Tch tch, look at you. The ten-thousand-year-old iceberg has finally melted. However, it’s good that you have the marriage certificate so you can tie her down and take this slow.”
While Jim was lamenting, Skyler asked a lethal question all of a sudden, “Can I not confess my
feelings to her?”
