Chapter 178

Jocelyn retracted her gaze, an unsavory feeling rising in her chest. She tightened her lips, thinking about the insane Giada Crain. She did so much harm to her over and over again, all for Skyler. There were so many women clawing after this man. Was she becoming one of them? 

Her heart turned cold. 

She replied to Lexie’s message. Jocelyn: [No matter what he asks, just ignore him. We couldn’t be friends two years ago. We shouldn’t see each other!)

Jocelyn looked at the flashing screen, but just as she wanted to pick up, the call was stopped.
