Chapter 291

Joycelyn woke up and started packing Ellison’s things, not even bothering to eat.

If the others knew about Ellison’s car accident and coma, not to mention the chaos it would cause at the company, Isolde would definitely be devastated.

Joycelyn couldn’t let that happen.

She propped herself up on the side of the bed and bent down to smooth Ellison’s hair away from his forehead. Her voice was soft and full of anticipation. “Ellison, when are you going to wake up?”

Normally, Ellison would respond to her words, but now he lay there, breathing shallowly, asleep and still.

Joycelyn sighed and attempted to straighten up, but suddenly, a sharp pain shot through her belly, and her head swam.

She hurried to the table and grabbed a piece of sweet watermelon to stave off the hypoglycemia from her hunger.

It wasn’t long before Sandra entered with the doctor.

“Joycelyn, the doctor says Ellison is still in a deep coma. It’s not a good idea to transfer him right now,” Sandra said.

Joycelyn paused, considering for a few seconds. The sweet taste of the watermelon turned bland in her mouth. “Alright, since it’s inconvenient to transfer him now, we’ll leave things as they are for now. I hope the hospital maintains confidentiality and doesn’t let anyone disturb my husband’s treatment.”

“Don’t worry, Mrs. Grant. We’ll take care of it,” the doctor said.

Joycelyn nodded in thanks.

When the doctor left, Sandra closed the door behind her. “Bellina is definitely hospitalized here, and since Ellison can’t be transferred for the time being, I’m going to increase our security. She must’ve seen you confront that Lester family, and now she’s scheming to make you a joke, so she had someone arrange for the Lester family.”

Sandra gritted her teeth when she spoke Bellina’s name. “That evil woman!”

Joycelyn nodded, her expression calm. “I think so. When the police come to ask for the statement, we’ll just tell them the truth. By the way, are the Lester family also in this hospital?”

“No, they are in a regular hospital now. I asked Leon to look into it, and it seems to be a severe case of food poisoning. Several children died on the way, and the adults are in critical condition now. It’s the worst food poisoning incident in the past ten years. The restaurant has been shut down now,” Sandra said.

Sandra took out her phone and scrolled through the news.

Joycelyn was surprised. She was even shocked. She looked at her dinner in front of her and was very hungry. But she was afraid to eat.
