Chapter 309

Shirley glanced at Jeff teasingly. “Alright. I know you’ll be hostile toward Joycelyn’s husband.”

As she held the ring up to the sunlight, she casually added, “But you’re not the only one. You have your brothers. I hear Mr. Grant is quite the character too. Watching you four men together is bound to be entertaining.”

Jeff remained expressionless, utterly indifferent to Ellison. “If he doesn’t wake up, then so be it. The Spencer family can afford to take care of Joycelyn and the baby.”

Shirley rolled her eyes. “But I can tell Joycelyn truly loves him.”

Jeff rolled his eyes. He had heard of Ellison’s capabilities and influence. From a man’s perspective, he admired him.

But in Jeff’s eyes, Ellison was someone who had stolen his beloved cousin.

Shirley said, “This ring’s serial number might have been altered. Whoever did this is meticulous. We’ll probably have to wait until Ellison wakes up to investigate properly.”

Jeff asked, “Can’t we trace it through the medicinal ingredients?”

Shirley replied, “Apparently, the doctor in charge of the medication was in the accident with Mr. Grant… and is also still unconscious.”

Jeff was annoyed. “That’s a huge inconvenience.”

Shirley added, “One thing at a time. Right now, the priority is for Joycelyn to recover. Thankfully, the Grant family has good

resources.

“Otherwise, with all this internal and external turmoil, the baby wouldn’t have survived. But now, there’s still a great chance.”

“Alright.” Jeff nodded.

In the ward, Joycelyn lay in her hospital bed, both of her small hands wrapped around Ellison’s uninjured left hand.

Before long, she dozed off again, but her sleep was restless, filled with murmurs.

“Ellison…” Her voice carried a sobbing tone, making anyone who heard it feel heartbroken.

Suddenly, Ellison’s fingers twitched slightly and tightened around her delicate hands. His eyelashes trembled.

After what seemed like an intense internal battle, his eyelids parted slightly for a brief moment before he weakly shut them again. But that fleeting glance was enough to put his heart at ease.
