Ellison And Joycelyn: A Love Beyond The Rules

Joycelyn left the hospital and took a taxi home.

The first thing she did when she got home was head upstairs to shower and wash her hair. It was as if she was washing herself clean and starting life over again.

Or perhaps, she wanted to wash away the burden on her shoulders and make herself feel more relaxed.

After taking a shower, she went downstairs to feed Rocky. Then, she held Rocky in her arms and fell asleep on the sofa.

Her petite figure lay on the classical–style sofa.

In the cold and luxurious space, she was dressed in white loungewear, giving off a sense of aloofness that was detached from worldly concerns.

She hadn’t spoken much since she got home. The puppy seemed to sense that she was feeling down, so it kept staying by her side quietly.

She slept from the afternoon into the evening.

It was not until Joycelyn sensed the puppy in her arms repeatedly nudging her chest and feeling very uneasy that she woke

up.

She slowly opened her eyes. In the huge villa, the ambient lights lit up one after another, adding a hint of tenderness to the cold space.

Holding Rocky, who was so terrified that it curled up in her arms, Joycelyn slowly sat up and instinctively glanced toward the foyer where she heard a noise.

Ellison’s tall and straight figure came into view. In that instant, an indifferent smile that was imperceptible appeared on Joycelyn’s face. “You’re back,” she said.

Her voice was still languid and childlike from just waking up.

She sat on the sofa, holding the puppy in her arms, craning her neck to look at him gently, and waiting for him to approach.

“Yeah.” Ellison put on his shoes, grabbing his suit jacket with one hand as he walked over.

His slender figure was like a model’s, and his well–proportioned muscles were faintly visible under his shirt. His blonde hair gently brushed his forehead, and his eyes gleamed with a deep and calm glint that commanded respect.

But Joycelyn could feel that when he looked at her, his gaze was softer.

Her smile grew sweeter as she waited patiently for him to approach. Tve been waiting for you for a long time.”

“Huh?” Ellison casually draped his suit jacket over the sofa and sat beside Joycelyn.

As he sat down, his cold and reserved look was tinged with
