Ellison And Joycelyn: A Love Beyond The Rules

Chapter 106 Chapter 106 Being a person of cold temperament, Liam couldn't help but retort immediately to defend Joycelyn, saying, "There's nothing going on between Joycelyn and ine. Your tricks are lowdown. Don't hurl mud at us.” As Linda saw him looking antsy in explaining himself, she smiled gently and said, "How can outsider like you managed to get into our company then? And how cyou even show up in our department? Wasn't it Joycelyn who told you all this privately?" "Our lab works with Grant Group. I'm a specially appointed expert and have a work permit." Liam lifted the work pass hanging around his neck. “And I've registered at the front desk. Instead of hurling mud at others here, why don't you honestly own up to your own responsibilities?" "I was just saying it casually, and you're so nervous. Isn't it because you have a guilty conscience?" Linda's defensive argument was clearly an attempt to stir the pot so that she could take advantage of the confusion and avoid responsibility.

Although Joycelyn was not particularly close to Liam, she knew he was somewhat stubborn. Now that he had cto the company, she could not completely ignore him and let him be dragged into the situation.

With an icy look, Joycelyn looked at Linda's expression of spinning the truth and said indifferently, "Linda, with the evidence right here, why are you still stubbornly denying it?" "These pieces of paper are torn to shreds, yet the few most noticeable stamped ones are preserved in such good condition," Linda said. “It's hard not to suspect that you guys forged them and placed them in here to frme." "But you just admitted it yourself," Selene said sharply. "Everyone saw it." Linda forced an insincere smile and said, "Joycelyn caused my assistant to be fired. I was mad, so I deliberately provoked her. It doesn't count." Linda's mental fortitude was very strong. Even though it was a nailed-down fact that she was the one who schemed against Joycelyn, she still refused to admit it.

"William, take that pile of shredded paper out and find someone to restore it," Ellison ordered in a serious voice. Once again, Linda was caught off guard.

"Alright." William said. "Although these pieces are torn, there are ways to restore them.” He went forward, gathered the pile of shredded papers, and took them to be reconstructed.

At this point, Linda was completely terrified.

She felt guilty and wanted to stop William, but he blocked her and said, "If you stopnow, it means you have a guilty conscience and today's events were all planned by you to frJoycelyn and the company." William's voice was powerful and authoritative. Linda staggered, and the confidence she had earlier in spinning the truth was now gone from her face.

"Mr. Grant, you don't believe me!" she said. Her eyes trembled as she looked at the man with a tall and elegant physique standing at the doorway.

She began to use emotions in a manipulative way.

Today's celebration party and the special treatment from Ellison made Linda feel smug, thinking that she held a special.

KS72%E Chapter 106 place in his heart.

"I only believe in facts and the truth," Ellison said. "Are you going to confess yourself or wait for the results?" Standing among the crowd, Ellison exuded an air of noble authority. His blue, deep eyes fixed on Linda, his face expressionless, yet icy cold to the extreme.

Even his voice was cold, very unfeeling.

One remark crushed Linda's last remaining hope.

"Mr. Grant, I've been working hard for the company all these years," she said. "Even if I haven't made great contributions, I've at least worked hard, right? For the sake of a small-temployee, you're certain that it'swho did those things, huh? You'll disappoint many of your loyal, long-temployees.

The more Linda spoke, the more aggrieved she felt. Her eyes had turned teary.

Joycelyn stood there quietly. Her calm and gentle face was expressionless, yet she was dazzlingly beautiful.

This remark immediately denied her abilities, trying to make people think that she relied on her beauty and looks to make Ellison play favorites.

"Being diligent all these years is truly respectable," Joycelyn said. "But if you've been double-dealing all this time, that would be quite terrifying." Her tone was calm, her expression clearly showing lingering fear.

Linda shot her a glare, thinking, 'She's clearly trying to kickwhile I'm down." The senior executives present instinctively got flustered and thought, 'Linda is clearly trying to muddy the waters, avoiding responsibility, and might even drag sof the company's veterans down with her. "Since you've done your best for the company for so many years, I'll give you a chance" Ellison relented. When Linda heard this, she immediately felt that there was hope.

"I believe you, but if I find out that you're behind this, I'll send you straight to jail, Ellison said.

His voice was serious and cold. As Linda heard it, the hope that had just been ignited in her was extinguished by a bucket of cold water.

She felt as cold as if she was in an icehouse.

"No... it wasn't me," she said.

"Are you sure?" Ellison asked, his blue eyes narrowed in an instant, fixing on Linda's face, which hadn't fully recovered from the allergic reaction.

Linda was terrified by that gaze. Not daring to respond, she merely shook her head.

"William, go investigate, Ellison said. "Givethe results before you get off work." He then turned around, no longer saying anything.

The situation was already quite clear, and it was just a matter of finding conclusive evidence now.

Everyone naturally had their own judgment about Linda's actions.

Joycelyn inwardly heaved a sigh of relief and thought, This matter should be resolved by no 2/4 12:46 Sat, 15 Feb 0 Chapter 106 Noticing that Ellison was about to leave, Liam immediately called out to him and said, "Mr. Grant, I watched the live streami of Joycelyn's speech. They were all key points we talked about in our meeting and weren't overly detailed.

"But considering that she was still able to speak so brilliantly in such a critical situation that is already quite remarkable. believe she's not the kind of person who schemes against others for benefits" Ellison turned back and looked at Liam's reserved face with his deep and cold eyes. "She's outstanding," he said.

"I can see that. I'm not blind." Hearing Ellison's words, Joycelyn pursed her lips.

She thought, 'But I noticed that he seemed to be sizing Liam up. Something didn't seem quite right.

Selene's eyes lit up when she heard that.

"Mr. Grant is a good guy,” she said as she held Joycelyn's arm, feeling very excited.

"Mr. Grant!" Linda suddenly called out to Ellison, drawing everyone's attention.

They then looked at her.

Linda took out her phone, pretending to have just received the photo. She raised the photo with feary eyes and said, "My friend who worked at the International Investment Conference today senta photo." Linda raised her phone and enlarged the photo of Ellison wiping Joycelyn's tears.

Everyone was stunned when they saw that image.

Anyone with eyes could see that Ellison, despite his high status, was lowering himself and gently comforting the crying Joycelyn.

When Selene saw this, she was so shocked that her mouth immediately opened wide, wearing a wide-eyed, gossiping expression.

Joycelyn, who had pursed her lips, was now biting her lip. She thought, 'See? I've told him to act within the limits when we're not at home. Now, we're in trouble. She has something on us

Ellison narrowed his blue eyes, and the coldness emanating from them seemed as if it wanted to pierce through Linda, Linda's heart skipped albeat, but she still bit the bullet to make up for her actions. "If we really need to reach closure on this matter, I admit that it's all my doing, as long as you're satisfied. I'd also like to beg you to giveanother chance." These words seemed like an admission of guilt, but they gave the impression that Linda wasn't fully willing to admit it..

It was all for the sake of compromise. It made everyone think that Joycelyn was the person Ellison favored and doted on, while Linda was a stepping stone, Linda wagered again that Ellison would at least avoid any suspicion regarding his relationship with Joycelyn and not be too harsh on her.

"You are threatening me, huh?" Ellison said.
