Chapter 264

Joycelyn said, “But in a few days, it’s the anniversary of your parents‘ passing.”

“I’ll come back then.” Ellison showed no hesitation.

“I’ll inform Grandma, and then we’ll leave,” Ellison reassured Joycelyn, calming her unease.

“Okay.” Joycelyn nodded, standing quietly.

Although she felt a little anxious, with Ellison by her side, she no longer felt the fear she used to.

She turned around, gazing at Ellison’s tall and broad back. Her eyes were filled with tenderness only for him.

About two minutes later, Ellison came out. “Let’s go.” He instructed William to start the car, preparing to head back.

As the car stopped in front of the garden, Ellison helped Joycelyn into the vehicle. Just then, Bellina spotted them from a distance and immediately walked over.

“I was just about to stay at your house, and now you’re leaving? Am I some kind of plague? Why are you avoiding me?” Bellina crossed her arms behind her back, tilting her face up arrogantly as she questioned Ellison.

Ellison turned his gaze to her, his eyes filled with cold disdain. “Who gave you permission to stay?”

Bellina was startled by the hostility in his eyes. She swallowed nervously, but still tried to maintain her playful tone. “Guess who?”

Ellison withdrew his gaze, got into the car, and slammed the door. Bellina flinched in fear.

“Hey! Don’t you have any manners? I’m a guest, after all!” She pouted, her big eyes welling up with unshed tears.

She looked exactly like a spoiled child who would cry when she didn’t get candy. Except this was the adult version.

“Drive.” Ellison was too lazy to entertain her antics.

Joycelyn glanced out the window at Bellina, who stood with her hands on her hips, fuming in frustration. She looked completely fearless and full of arrogant entitlement.

Joycelyn muttered, “The Schultz father and son seem quite normal, so why is this one… kinda stupid?”

were extreme.
