Chapter 199

“Ellison, Sandra kicked me!” Leon was the first to act, throwing himself under the bus as a shield to avoid being reprimanded.

“Ellison, I caught him eavesdropping, so I took care of it for you,” Sandra said, crossing her arms smugly as she shifted the blame with a queen–like air of confidence.

“You two weren’t supposed to still be here,” Ellison said, his charming expression vanishing in an instant, replaced by his signature cool and stern demeanor.

Joycelyn bit her lip, trying to stifle her laughter as she watched Ellison, now in strict disciplinarian mode, lecture Leon.

“We decided to stay another night, you know, to keep the festivities going,” Sandra announced breezily.

“Mrs. Grant asked him to say a blessing for you two later. She thinks it’ll bring you good luck,” Sandra added. Though petite in stature, she carried herself with the commanding presence of a queen.

Meanwhile, Leon, a spoiled troublemaker in his own right, was left with no choice but to act like her lackey primarily because he couldn’t beat her in a fight.

“Oh, come on! You should feel honored to have such an important task fall to you,” Sandra quipped, her grin mischievous.

Leon let out a disgruntled huff and turned his head away.

Joycelyn, feeling a bit puzzled, couldn’t resist asking, “Blessing words?”

“That’s right,” Sandra replied, her tone lighthearted. “Mrs. Grant believes it’s best to have someone clever and bright offer their blessings to newlyweds. At first, she thought Leon was too mischievous, and then she remembered Ellison could keep him in line without breaking a sweat. That’s when she felt it was safe to assign him the task.”

“Sandra, could you laugh any louder?” Leon growled, hands on his hips as he glared down at her.

‘If only Sandra weren’t as strong as an ox, able to toss me like a rag doll, I’d definitely teach her a lesson, Leon fumed internally.
