Chapter 229 The n
Jocelyn intended to get along well with Charis, and thetter seemed to happily y along. After
their meeting in the restaurant, Charis often took Jocelyn out for lunch and shopping.
"You don''t have to save money for my dad. He is a wealthy man, after all. Besides, you are still
young. Now is the time to enjoy life." Charis held Jocelyn''s hand, took her into a luxury store, and
brought several Birkins bags.
Jocelyn was used to squandering money and had always led a decadent life. She wanted to be
humble and sweet before Charis. However, after hearing her statement, Jocelyn felt she had finally
found a friend who shared the same view about life.
"You''re right. Girls should pamper themselves. But Mr. Turner just thinks I''m wasting money."
Jocelyn pouted.
"My father doesn''t care about how much money I spend. He has never said no to me and has given
me everything I want. He believes I deserve the best. I mean, that''s what all fathers want for their
daughters. But I know my father just fears that I might end up marrying a poor boy. If he thinks you
spend too much money, I''ll talk to him about it. After all, we are family. If you still feel awkward or
embarrassed, consider me your best friend. Anyway, all my friends are abroad. I don''t know anyone
here. I liked you the moment I saw you. We clicked instantly." Charis grinned. As expected, Jocelyn
fell for her sugar-coated remarks.
"Okay. We are best friends from now on." Jocelyn smiled. She trusted Charis with all her heart and
shared everything with her.
The two walked around the mall. It took them all morning to shop and then they found a perfect
French bistro for lunch.
Charis learned from Jocelyn that Fiona was in jail because she had attempted to harm J. The
Lind family had also fallen into a decline. Charis immediately guessed that Brandon had been
J''s secret guardian angel the entire time.
"By the way, you told me J is the reason why your mother is in jail. Do you think J is
capable of pulling that off? Do you need my help to find out who is really behind all this?" Charis
asked, pretending to sympathize with Jocelyn.
"Can you do that?" Jocelyn''s eyes widened with excitement.
"Of course. It''s no big deal. Our family has connections with several big shots in the city."
Charis feared that Brandon might find out about her n, so she couldn''t get directly involved in it.
However, she could drive a wedge between Jocelyn and J, manipting the former to ruin
J''s life. Helping Jocelyn was no big deal because Charis needed her to fulfill the n.
A dayter, Charis asked Jocelyn to meet with her again.
"Your family''s problem has something to do with Brandon Larson, the CEO of the Larson Group."
Charis handed all the evidence to Jocelyn.
"What? But why is he doing all this? We are not involved with him in any way." Although Jocelyn
didn''t know much about Brandon, she knew he was one of the most sessful entrepreneurs in
Seacisco.
Charis pursed her lips and pretended to think. "You got punished right after something happened to
J. Do you think it''s a coincidence?"
The frown on Jocelyn''s forehead deepened. Knowing her n was working, Charis continued.
"Well, I don''t think you know this. As a senior manager of the Larson Group, I heard that Brandon
has been paying special attention to J. I don''t know much about her, and it''s immoral to gossip
behind her back. But we have no choice but to probe the possibilities. Do you think J might
have hooked up with Brandon? He is probably smitten by her, so he sent your mother to jail for
trying to harm her."
Jocelyn clenched the teacup until her knuckles turned white. Her jaw tightened; she was seething
with rage. "That slut is capable of doing it! You''re right Charis. She must have slept with Brandon.
That''s why he had sent my mother to jail. He wanted to impress her! Or maybe it was she who
asked him to do this for her!"N?velDrama.Org ? content.
