Chapter 187

Walter had always been a gentleman, and he had never been so ungentlemanly or so unkind to a girl. However, today, his behavior was the exact opposite of what he used to be. Walter knew what she meant, and his tone was indifferent, “Jo, that was nothing when it comes to protecting someone I care about.” Jocelyn pursed her lips; her expression was tense 

For a while, she did not know what to say. 

She really could not get used to how Walter was still as nice to her as he was two years ago. Obviously, their relationship was long gone, so why was he still doing this? Jocelyn bit her lip, feeling inexplicably depressed.

He changed the subject, “Jo, I heard that you are working at Prosperity Jewelry now, right?” Jocelyn nodded absently. “Yeah.” 

Walter smiled; his tone as gentle as a spring breeze. “If you need anything in the future, you can ask me for help. If someone causes trouble for you in the company, you can also come to me. I have… acquaintances in Prosperity.” 

Jocelyn opened her mouth but did not know what to say for a long time. Finally, she hummed softly and nodded mechanically.

Lexie’s eyes flashed and she suddenly said, “What an affectionate nickname. The name of your cat is also derived from your name too, right?”
