Chapter 128 "My suitcase!" Joycelyn watched in horror as her suitcase burst open in front of her, revealing both her and Ellison's clothes and pajamas.
Around them, many people were already taking photos of Ellison and his team, all dressed sharply and exuding an impressive aura in the airport hall.
Not to mention the embarrassment if these photos ended up online, having Ellison's underwear spill out in front of so many colleagues would be mortifying.
Without thinking, Joycelyn prepared to rush forward.
But before she could move, a swift figure reached the suitcase first, closing it with one hand and snapping it shut.
It cut off everyone's curious gazes.
"Thank you!" Joycelyn stopped in her tracks, almost bowing to William.
"It's what I should do." William took a deep breath, secured the suitcase, and handed it back to Joycelyn.
Just as she was about to take it, the latch popped open again.
This time, clothes were scattered all over the place without warning.
Both Joycelyn and William were shocked.
They saw black and white shirts, high-quality trousers, and even a glimpse of Calvin Klein boxer briefs.
Joycelyn gasped, feeling a cold sweat on her back.
She quickly crouched down and started stuffing the clothes back into the suitcase.
William wanted to help, but considering his position and the personal nature of the items, he could only squat down halfway.

Wearing a black mask and sunglasses, he exuded a cool and restrained aura.
Ellison was tall, with an unobstructed view. When his dark eyes behind the sunglasses caught sight of the familiar fabric and saw Joycelyn hurriedly stuffing clothes into the suitcase, he immediately understood.
He gave a signal to his assistants behind him, instructing them to help cover the situation.
In the next moment, the sharply dressed assistant team quickly surrounded Joycelyn, blocking everyone's view. This gave her tto gather the scattered clothes without anyone peeking.
"Joycelyn, are you okay?" Lucy wanted to step forward to help.
She had also seen it just now. Although they were just clothes, it was obvious there were men's shirts, trousers, and underwear inside.
The scene gave off the feeling of being protected by knights.
1/3 11:35 Sun, 16 Feb Chapter 128 "I'm fine, it'll be done soon," Joycelyn said quickly.
The suitcase latch seemed to have been damaged, so she had no choice but to carry it herself.
Luckily, it was only 20 inches and not too big.
"Letcarry it, it's a bit heavy for a lady," William said, extending a hand to take the suitcase from her.
82% Lucy stepped forward, glancing at William and then at the slightly blushing and nervous Joycelyn. Internally, she was a bit surprised yet smirked anyway.
"There's no need. It's a girl's luggage. If someone sees it, they'll misunderstand," Joycelyn said, feeling a bit startled.
She felt that everyone who passed by them seemed to have seen the little secret of her luggage.
It was so awkward.
"It's fine, once we're in the channel, there won't be many people watching," William reassured.
Joycelyn still shook her head and did not let go.
"Give it to him. Why did you calljust now?" Ellison asked in a deep voice.
Joycelyn looked at him and hesitated for a few seconds before handing the suitcase to William. "Sorry to trouble you." "It's no trouble at all. I'll take care of it," William said, carrying the suitcase as he quickly walked toward the side of the VIP channel.
She's "Oh, Mr. Grant, my good friend missed her flight. She's also going to Virelia. Can she join us on the plane?" Joycelyn walked up to Ellison, pulling Lucy along with her.
"Hello, Mr. Grant. I'm Lucy Barrett. I'm Joycelyn's high school classmate," Lucy politely introduced herself.
Even though Lucy had seen all kinds of big shots, she was still momentarily stunned when she saw Ellison for the first time.
The man standing before her, even with his sunglasses and mask on, exuded a cool and noble aura, along with the calmness of someone who had weathered many storms in the business world.
His strong presence inspired a sense of respect and awe.
Ellison didn't immediately respond, instead, he glanced at Lucy.
Lucy instinctively swallowed. She felt that the pair of eyes under the sunglasses had an oppressive force that pierced through her heart.
Her palms suddenly broke out in cold sweat.
After a moment of silence, Ellison agreed. "Okay." "Thank you, Mr. Grant!" Joycelyn said respectfully to him.
Now she wouldn't be bored on the flight.
"Thank you, Mr. Grant." Lucy also expressed her gratitude.
Ellison didn't respond and continued striding confidently toward the VIP channel.

Seeing Lucy's uneasy expression and hesitation, Joycelyn asked, "What's wrong?" 82% "No, I was just curious. Is your husband the man who carried your luggage just now? He's gentle and handsome.
He looks like an outstanding young gentleman," Lucy said with a wicked smile.
Joycelyn smiled bitterly. "No." "Then why do you have men's shirts, pajamas, and Calvin Klein underwear in your suitcase?" Lucy lowered her voice, adding a teasing tone.
Joycelyn's heart skipped a beat, but she maintained her composure. "h grabbed the wrong suitcase. Those afe from a trip my husband and I packed for but never took. I didn't check before bringing it today." "Oh, I see," Lucy replied, not pressing the matter further.
"But thank you anyway. I'm lucky to have run into you and your big boss, otherwise, I'd be in big trouble. Where are you going for your business trip to Virelia? Maybe I can find you after you're done." "I'm not really sure of the exact location, and I don't know if I'll have time," Joycelyn didn't dare to promise.
After all, she was there to take wedding photos and couldn't tell Lucy the truth.
"Oh, let's see then. Is that your boss up front with the mask and sunglasses? He looks quite young е.
and handsome, with a strong presence. Just getting close madefeel nervous," Lucy said, patting her chest, trying to appear calm. Joycelyn chuckled softly. "But he's actually quite nice, though he can be very stern and unyielding." "Of course," Lucy replied.
The two followed at the end of the group. Since they had chartered the flight, twasn't as pressing.
As the group ahead stopped, Joycelyn's eyes looked through the crowd and saw the elegant Isolde, supported by the graceful Leah.

Ellison sent the assistants ahead, leaving Joycelyn with Lucy behind. Although Lucy was a trusted high school friend, Joycelyn wasn't ready for her to know the truth, especially after the unexpected situation.
Isolde turned and saw Joycelyn, her eyes filled with affection.
