Ellison And Joycelyn: A Love Beyond The Rules

Chapter 262

Theard you came from a poor family. No wonder, Bellina sneered. She wasn’t even bothering with subtle jabs anymore. She was outright humiliating Joycelyn in front of everyone.

After all, Bellina was the beloved daughter of the wealthy Schultz family. Everything she wore, used, and touched was of the finest quality.

Her deep–seated sense of superiority was obvious.

The scene fell into a death silence.

Bellina was the daughter of the wealthiest family, after all. No one dared to offend her, and with Ellison right there, they were even more cautious.

Everyone simply watched the spectacle unfold in silence.

Joycelyn was about to speak, but before she could, Ellison took her hand and interjected first.

“Miss Schultz, why don’t you tell everyone how, out of a family of five, you just so happen to look nothing like your father, nothing like your mother, and bear no resemblance to either of your brothers?”

Ellison’s sharp features were clouded with a cold, menacing aura. His gaze was cold and calculating. His one hand held Joycelyn’s, resting it on his lap, while the other toyed with the knife in his grasp.

A collective gasp rippled through the room.

Bellina never expected Ellison to humiliate her so openly, exposing her secret for all to hear.

“What nonsense are you spouting! I am the most cherished daughter of the Schultz family!” Bellina’s voice, once dripping with arrogance, now turned sharp and panicked.

“I am a guest! How dare you treat me like this! This is outrageous!” She seethed, glaring at Ellison.

Ellison’s gaze turned icy. The next second, the knife in his hand shot straight toward Bellina.

Her eyes widened in disbelief. She wanted to dodge, but this was the first time she had ever faced such real danger. Other than letting out a terrified scream, she couldn’t move an inch.

The knife flew in the air quickly, grazing the side of Bellina’s face. It sliced through a few strands of her hair, skimming past her ear. Then, it embedded itself into the marble floor behind her with a forceful thud.
