Chapter 113

“Why don’t we dine together?” Joycelyn suggested

When Leon saw Joycelyn speak, he immediately pulled away from Ellison’s arm in disdain and walked up to Joycelyn, his smile becoming even more radiant. He gentlemanly made an inviting gesture and said, “Mrs. Grant, please. Let me carry your handbag”

With that solicitous and fawning attitude, those who did not know better would think that the Davey family had fallen from grace and that Leon had turned to using his looks for gain and becoming a lackey.

Faced with such an enthusiastic young man. Joycelyn was somewhat unable to handle it.

After Leon took the shoulder bag she was holding, Joycelyn linked arms with Ellison and walked into the restaurant.

Leon had been blocked for a long time and was not allowed to enter. With Joycelyn around, he snorted at the manager and immediately cleared the way ahead.

Ellison’s face darkened as he stared at Leon, wishing he could burn a hole through him with his gaze.

That guy was so caught up in playing the charming lackey that he didn’t notice Ellison’s sharp gaze, yet Joycelyn was amused by

and kept laughing. Ellison wanted to speak, but he hesitated.

Haddy caught up, helplessly patted Ellison’s shoulder, and comforted him in a gentle voice, saying, “Sorry. I didn’t manage to stop him. I’ll figure out a way to get him out of here later.

Ellison didn’t respond. His cold, aloof expression was shrouded in silence, and he was holding back his anger.

The restaurant was covered with a layer of red rose petals from the entrance.

Joycelyn took off her sunglasses and looked at the rose petals on the floor.

The air was filled with the sweet scent of roses. It was extremely dreamy to walk on them.

Outside the window was the most dazzling and bustling nightscape of the city. Coupled with the fiery red glow, it was shockingly beautiful.

Joycelyn had never thought that her first date was so rushed, yet so stunning.

She thought, ‘No wonder he held me up for an hour at home before leaving. This must have been a last–minute arrangement.

Joycelyn could not help but exclaim softly. “It’s so beautiful. So gorgeous.” She then turned around and looked at Ellison with sparkling eyes

Ellison could clearly see the love and touched expression in her eyes. Before he could speak, Leon, that chatterbox, started babbling away.

“Wow!” he said. “Good lord, no wonder the manager stopped me from entering. He carried Joycelyn’s shoulder bag over his shoulder, took out his phone, and started taking photos.
