Chapter 189

Jocelyn ignored everyone’s gaze, pursed her lips, and said softly, “Are you busy?” She did not call him President Moore or Mr. Moore, and she did not call him by his name too for fear of exposing herself. It was quiet on the other end of the phone. Skyler was silent for two seconds before he said, ” I’m not busy, what’s the matter?” Someone jokingly mouthed with a smile on their lips, “Ask him what he’s doing.” Jocelyn saw everyone’s look of anticipation and continued, “Are you…” Before Jocelyn could ask, Skyler answered, “I’m in a bar.” “It’s pretty quiet over there.” Jocelyn was a little surprised. 

Skyler’s voice seemed to be tinged with a chuckle, “I’m in the private room.” 

Jocelyn suddenly remembered that Skyler’s private room in Vintage Bar was so soundproof that no noise could penetrate the walls. It was pin-drop silent from the outside. She hesitated for a second and said, “Well, if you’re at a bar, I’ll hang up first.” The alumni were getting anxious. Their faces changed slightly, and someone cried, “Jocelyn, you can’t do this!” 

Skyler’s voice was cold. “Who’s that?” 

Jocelyn was a little helpless. “It’s one of the alumni. I’m at the alumni party? Everyone wants to meet you. I originally planned to ask you to come to pick me up, but you had something to drink too so you can’t drive.” 

After listening to Jocelyn, Skyler understood and said, “It doesn’t matter, I will let the driver drive me, you go have fun first.” 

Nothing was exposed and it worked out perfectly. Jocelyn finally breathed a sigh of relief and hung up the phone. 

As soon as she hung up the phone, everyone asked with envy.

smile, “Who is that?” Skyler gave him a sideways look. “Jocelyn.” Jim looked sloppy. “Why did she call you in the middle of the night? Is she doing a spot check?” Skyler glanced at Jim casually, shook the glass in his hand, and ignored him. Jim could not bear being left alone. “It’s just the two of us here so you should say something. Don’t make me perform a one-man show.” Skyler snorted softly, “I think you’re pretty happy to be alone.” Jim rolled his eyes. “I’m sad now.” Skyler was showing an expression that said, ‘Even if you’re sad, it doesn’t matter to me.’ “I’ll pick her up after I finish this drink.” Jim rolled his eyes and raised his eyebrows. “Pick up Jocelyn?
