Contracted Bride Is Trapped By Her Husband - Chapter 116
Chapter 116 USB Flash Drive
“If my boss finds out what you just said, I’ll be dead.” Luke made a throat-slitting gesture, but then remembered that Isidore couldn’t see him, so he lowered his hand.
Isidore shrugged his shoulders and said, “Alright, alright, I won’t say anymore. But how are you going to thank me for helping you so much?”
“Two weeks of my salary, be it at the bar or anywhere else, it’s on me.”
At Luke’s generosity, Isidore whistled loudly on the other end of the phone.
Although Aren could be an annoying boss, he was very generous. He paid Luke a very high salary. Compared with the other assistants in the same job, Luke’s salary was three times higher.
This was also the reason why Luke could persistently stay by Aren’s side.
After all, money was omnipotent. “I’ll remember what you said. See you at Helen’s Bar tonight at 10: 00.” Without hesitation, Isidore set a time and place for the two of them to meet. Without waiting for Luke to decline, he hung up.
Looking at the string of numbers on his phone, Luke hesitated for a moment and called Jocelyn.
Jocelyn, who was chatting with Eliza in bed, looked at the unfamiliar call on her phone and didn’t answer.
Luke didn’t give up until he got through to Jocelyn. He called three more times and it was finally picked up.
“Hello, who are you?” Jocelyn turned on the speaker.
“Hello, Miss Jocelyn. I’m Master Aren’s assistant. My name is Luke.”
His self-introduction made Jocelyn want to hear more. At the same time, she frowned. Luke reminded her of the humiliation she had suffered today. Jocelyn directed her anger towards Luke and treated him quite coldly.
“I remember you. What do you want from
me?”
Jocelyn’s cold voice made Luke rub his arms. He thought to himself, “As expected of Master Aren’s fiancée.”
“Well, Master Aren made me investigate the rumors about Miss Jocelyn online. I have the results of the investigation.”
“Master Aren asked me to hand the results of the investigation to you, so can you tell me where you are now? I need to give it to you personally.”
From the beginning to the end, Luke’s gentle and polite answer made Jocelyn unable to reject him, and it also made her unable to maintain a cold attitude.
After all, she was a kind and gentle person, and venting her anger on someone was in her nature.
Moreover, the person who humiliated her was not Luke. He was just an assistant who was paid to do things for Aren.
Jocelyn felt guilty for being angry just now, but she did not immediately agree to Luke’s request. Instead, she looked at Eliza questioningly. After all, she was living with Eliza now. It was impolite to invite people to her house without her permission.

Jocelyn didn’t want to do anything that would make Eliza unhappy.
Eliza could tell from Jocelyn’s eyes that she was worried about something.
“Let him come,” Eliza said generously. “Anyway, even if Aren doesn’t investigate, we will have to do it ourselves. Now that he did, it saved us a lot of time.”
“Let alone the fact that he’s here to deliver some files, there’s nothing wrong with letting him stay for dinner.”
Eliza’s generosity won a hug from Jocelyn.
“Thank you, Eliza. Thank you so much.”
Eliza and Jocelyn didn’t lower their voices, so Luke heard them clearly.
After getting the address where Jocelyn was from Eliza, he drove to Stephen’s house.
As Eliza had already told the servants in advance, Luke wasn’t stopped on his way into Stephen’s manor. By the time he arrived at the living room, Jocelyn and Eliza were already sitting on the sofa.
“Where is the file you were talking about?” Eliza extended her hand and said to Luke rudely.
She was not good at beating about the bush. Being straightforward was her typical way of doing things.
Luke didn’t reply to Eliza. Instead, he placed his gaze on Jocelyn. After obtaining her permission, he took out the USB from his pocket. “Everything is on this USB flash drive.”
