Chapter 108 The Banquet
Hearing Noah’s question, Jocelyn knew what he meant. She immediately asked softly, “What do you think?”
No wonder he could be the first-in-command, he was really smart.
“I’m the same as you.” Noah said lightly, smoke lingering on his slender fingertips.
“How do you know the idea in my mind?” Jocelyn asked.
After saying that, she turned the car around, skillfully operated the steering wheel with one hand, and put her elbow on the window frame.
Such a driving posture looked beautiful and sassy.
“Because you are very smart.” He said.
“You’re also very smart.” Jocelyn praised, “No wonder you’re the first-in-command.”
“What are you going to do?” Noah took another puff of cigarette. The expression on his face became more and more blurred in the smoke.
“Check it.” Jocelyn said.
“Do you need my help?” His tone was calm.
“How can you help me?”
“I’ve been around for so long. I know some people.” After he finished speaking, he flicked the soot.
“Thank you. I can do it myself.” Jocelyn said confidently, “But it seems that there will be some difficulties in the investigation.”
If Sara wanted to make comeback with such a trick, she must have set the story perfectly before the show started.
She absolutely wouldn’t reveal any flaws easily.
Before the truth was investigated, Sara and Gloria should be able to enjoy themselves for a while.
At this moment, Allen’s call came in.
“Jocelyn, go to work in the head office tomorrow. The position of the sales manager has been vacated for you. After you go to the company, help me take care of the company’s affairs. I have to take care of Sara the next days, so I can’t go to the company.” Allen was straightforward.
“Okay.” Jocelyn said.
In the days that followed, the plot continued as Jocelyn expected.
The murderer had never been caught.
The case had never been clear.
Sara continued to play tricks by taking advantage of her injuries, and successfully made Allen completely forgive her and her daughter.
She even got a villa in the city center from Allen.
Sara looked better now.
Gloria also looked well. Jocelyn saw her coming back frequently to her parents’ house and pretending to be obedient in front of Allen.
Occasionally, when Jocelyn was on the balcony at her home, she could just hear the cheerful laughter from the next door.
Time went on like this. In a blink of an eye, Joseph was released from prison. Sara and Gloria were overjoyed.
However, because Jocelyn was always busy, she didn’t have the heart to pay attention to what happened between the two of them and her father. She just kept asking Paige to follow up the police’s investigation results.
As the New Year was approaching, there were too many things in X Entertainment and Murphy Properties Group, which needed her to deal with. She was already very busy.
On this day, when Jocelyn got off work from the head office of Murphy Properties Group, she received a call from Allen.
She answered it first, then quickly got into her red Maserati and closed the door, “Hello, Dad.”
“Jocelyn, didn’t Joseph get out of prison two days ago? Sara said that the banquet which welcomed them to come back after their marriage was not well organized because of something. Then we plan to make it up the day after tomorrow. It will be held in our own home. Just invite some of our family and friends.”
“Okay.” Jocelyn said lightly.
“I know you have opinions about Gloria, but no matter what, you are still sisters. So many relatives and friends will come. It will be not good if you don’t come, right?” Allen said again.
“Okay, I’ll go. What time is it the day after tomorrow?” Jocelyn responded quickly.
At this time, she naturally wouldn’t embarrass her father.
There was a bit of joy in Allen’s voice, “At twelve noon the day after tomorrow. Bring Noah here, okay?”
“Okay.” Jocelyn responded quickly.
The banquet which welcomed Gloria and Joseph back was very grand.
All the relatives and friends of the Murphy family were present. Before eleven o’clock, the inside and outside of the courtyard were already full of cars.
There was an endless stream of people in the yard.
There was a total of sixty tables in the living room. Sara, who was dressed up, had been holding Allen’s arm intimately, and shuttled with him between the guests at the tables. The smile on her face was brighter than the sun in the sky.
How many people were waiting to see her embarrassing and waiting to see her divorce from Allen? Now she was going to give these people a slap in the face.
Let them know that she, Sara, was just so awesome! Unless she wanted to fall, no one could knock her down.Property of Nô)(velDr(a)ma.Org.
At the same time, in the villa next door, Jocelyn, who was already dressed, was standing in front of the full-length mirror in the luxurious walk-in closet, carefully checking her look.
The mirror inlaid with gold and diamonds reflected her current look.
A black wavy hair was tied into a neat high ponytail. The hair on the front of the forehead was also tied up, revealing her smooth forehead. She wore the delicate makeup. The mole under the end of the eye made the overall makeup look more special.
The black tight-fitting short dress perfectly lined her exquisite figure.
The snow-white fox fur was draped over her shoulders, which looked more brilliance.
In this way, she looked gorgeous, like the most expensive diamond.
Casually pinning the messy hair behind her ears, Jocelyn put on a pair of black stilettos heels. She looked at herself in the mirror, and then sneered.
She walked downstairs all the way.
Noah, in a suit and leather shoes, was smoking in the living room.
A finely tailored black shirt, paired with a black suit, outlined his wide shoulders, narrow hips and long legs.
The dark blue cufflinks on the cuff shone brightly in the sun, breaking the dull feeling of a black suit just right.
The thick black hair was loosely extended to the back. His hair was brushed up from the forehead. Then his angular facial features all could be seen.
“Noah, let’s go.” Jocelyn walked up to him quickly and said.
Noah slowly put out the cigarette butt in his hand, and looked into her eyes. Then he said, “Go.”
After saying the word, he took the lead in picking up her car keys and walked out.
Jocelyn followed closely.
When Jocelyn and Noah walked into the Murphy mansion, others were basically all there.
At a glance, there were huge crowds.
Gloria was holding Joseph in his arms, and followed Allen and Sara among the guests in high spirits, clinking glasses and drinking with everyone.
They two were simply the focus of all those present.
Seeing this scene, Jocelyn couldn’t help sneering immediately. They were really thick-skinned. After such things happened, they could still be like that nothing happened.
Jocelyn and Noah immediately attracted the attention of countless people within a few seconds of entering the house. Good-looking people was always particularly eye-catching.
Soon everyone’s eyes were focused on the two of them.
Gloria and Joseph soon noticed them.
