Ellison And Joycelyn: A Love Beyond The Rules

Chapter 119

Chapter 119

“Mr. Grant doesn’t like gossip. How about we go upstairs? I need to use the restroom first. Seeing that she couldn’t change everyone’s mind, Joycelyn turned and headed upstairs.

She wanted to avoid being recognized by Isolde later.

Leah turned around just as Joycelyn headed upstairs.

She noticed Joycelyn’s serene profile and elegant figure.

Leah recognized Joycelyn’s figure but didn’t say anything. Instead, she quickly looked away and stayed by Ellison’s side.

“Mrs. Grant, Ellison is here, Leah affectionately said as she walked over to Isolde. Once Ellison sat down, Leah gracefully took her seat, exuding the demeanor of a CEO’s wife.

Isolde only saw Ellison and didn’t notice Joycelyn. “Why did you come alone? Where is Joycelyn…?”

“I was busy and forgot to tell her. She’s having lunch with her colleagues and probably didn’t bring her phone,” Ellison said coolly as he sat down. “How are you feeling today? Any better?”

Ellison brushed off the topic and changed the subject before Isolde could say more.

“You and Joycelyn are boss and subordinate. Do your colleagues at the company know that you’re married?” Leah asked sweetly, full of curiosity.

Hearing this, Ellison, who was spreading a napkin, looked up and gave Leah a cold, penetrating stare. “It’s not your place to ask about my private matters.”

Leah was so taken aback by his gaze that she froze, not daring to move.

The atmosphere at the dining table was visibly freezing.

“Dr. Mason, could you and Luna help me prepare some dipping sauce?” Isolde said to ease the tension.

Leah knew that Isolde was giving her a way out, so she quickly nodded with an embarrassed smile. “Okay”

After Leah and Luna left, Isolde gently asked, “Ellison, is it inconvenient for you and Joycelyn right now!”

“Grandma, she likes an ordinary and peaceful life. I don’t want her to be pushed to the center of attention because of me. I also don’t want her to end up like my parents, or for my children to be targeted and kidnapped,” Ellison explained the reason to his grandmother for the first time.

Isolde sighed deeply, her voice tinged with sadness. I understand. I’ll be more careful next time. When you two go abroad. I won’t disturb you. Enjoy yourselves and take lots of photos for me.”
