Ellison And Joycelyn: A Love Beyond The Rules

Chapter 279

(+23)

Chapter 278

Three hours later, Joycelyn was wearing a nightdress. Her face was flushed, and the corners of her eyes were moist.

The negligee was relatively skimpy and exposed much of her skin. It was obvious that she had just had an intense workout in bed.

Earlier, the soup was indeed meant to nourish the body in preparation for pregnancy, but it seemed like all the nourishment ended up in Ellison’s body.

Joycelyn knocked on the bathroom door. “Are you done soaking? Don’t catch a cold.”

In the bathroom, Ellison was leaning back in the bathtub with his eyes closed. There was even a fever patch on his forehead, courtesy of Joycelyn.

Under the rippling water, the raging hormones had yet to settle down in that slender and perfect figure.

“You can sleep first. I’ll soak for a while longer.” Ellison’s languid voice was somewhat hoarse.

“Don’t stay there too long. I’m going to sleep now.” Joycelyn’s entire body was aching.

After that two–hour workout, Ellison was still full of vigor. She had also taken a lot of that soup, but why was the effect so dramatic on him?

Sigh! She was so tired that she couldn’t even keep her eyes open. She flopped down on the big bed and fell asleep not long after burrowing into the blanket.

Half an hour later, Ellison emerged from the bathroom with the fever patch still stuck on his forehead.

Under the simultaneous assault of icy water and internal body heat, the man, who was as strong as an ox, finally caught a cold.

The next day was Monday and a working day.

Earlier, Joycelyn had taken half a month off. Selene Whitmore and the rest had not seen her for a long time and missed her very much.

The moment they saw Joycelyn sitting at her desk early in the morning, all of them cheered and whooped.

Joycelyn was typing on her phone and giving William a few urgent instructions not to let Ellison drink coffee and to give him cooling mint tea instead.

The moment she put down her phone, she was swept up by Selene’s bear hug.

“Joycelyn, you cutie–pie, did you quarrel with your husband? Why is your beau in the office today?” The first thing Selene said startled Joycelyn.

“Beau?” She only had one husband, and she had been with him for the past few days. She did not even know she had a beau outside.

“You don’t say! He’s quite a looker. He’s tall and slim, refined and intellectual–looking. He’s clearly an overseas scholar who has just returned and resembled some squeaky–clean guy who’s selling insurance. Honey, you have hidden your secret quite well.” Melly gave a roguish smile as she nudged Joycelyn.

The more Joycelyn listened to them, the more bewildered she became.
