Ellison And Joycelyn: A Love Beyond The Rules

In reality, Joycelyn was looking forward to having kids. She recalled Kingston Mason’s medical advice.

“Sure, I’ll prepare for pregnancy and nurture my body for the next half a month. You can abstain from sex, and we’ll sleep in separate rooms. Hechee!”

As soon as Joycelyn said this, the smile on Ellison’s face instantly vanished.

He narrowed his dark eyes and gritted his teeth. “Sleeping in separate rooms is out of the question! I never planned to sleep in separate rooms from the beginning!”

“But we had a deal. You gave me your word. Mr. Grant, you have to keep your promise,” Joycelyn reminded him.

Her suggestion undoubtedly raised Ellison’s ire. She even raised her chin provocatively at Ellison after speaking.

The man’s sudden glum expression resembled an injured golden retriever. If it weren’t for the fact that she wasn’t tall enough, she would have petted his head.

Ellison came closer. With one hand in his pocket, he rubbed his chin with the other hand a few times. His handsome face suddenly leaned closer, and his warm breath enveloped Joycelyn in an instant.

“What? Do you want to devour me? You must still abide by our conjugal agreement.” Joycelyn blinked a few times.

Ellison’s dark eyes glinted. His clear and seductive voice was so pleasant to her ears that it almost made her melt. “Fine. If you want me to rest for half a month, I’ll take half a month off first and not go anywhere. After I have had my fill of you, then you can rest?”

Joycelyn did a double take. What the hell was this? They had to take shifts when having sex?

While Joycelyn was still in a daze, Ellison lowered his head and kissed her. “You are amazed by my perfect plan, aren’t you?”

“Perfect my ass!” Joycelyn was pissed off now. She flung Ellison’s hand away and walked to the basin with a sullen face to wash her hands.

She finally understood the meaning of those contractual agreements whereby it was stated so–and–so would have the final say. No matter how the consumer interpreted the terms, the corporation always had countless ways to turn things around to its advantage.

After the family lunch, everyone left the old Grant residence in the afternoon.

Sandra and Leon Davey did not come back together for the sake of Lucky, that black furball.

When they got home, Ellison and Joycelyn told Isolde Grant about the matter of Joycelyn’s birth background.

After listening to the couple, Isolde and her caregiver, Luna, were first surprised and then relieved.

“It’s fine. From now on, the Grant family’s place will be your home. Even if you don’t want to live with Ellison anymore, he’ll be the one to get lost. I guarantee that this will be your home for the rest of your life.” Isolde held Joycelyn’s hand and told her this with grandmotherly affection.
