Ellison And Joycelyn: A Love Beyond The Rules

Chapter 277 Chapter 277 +23 In reality, Joycelyn was looking forward to having kids. She recalled Kingston Mason's medical advice.

"Sure, I'll prepare for pregnancy and nurture my body for the next half a month. You can abstain from sex, and we'll sleep in separate rooms. Hechee!" As soon as Joycelyn said this, the smile on Ellison's face instantly vanished.

He narrowed his dark eyes and gritted his teeth. "Sleeping in separate rooms is out of the question! I never planned to sleep in separate rooms from the beginning!" "But we had a deal. You gaveyour word. Mr. Grant, you have to keep your promise," Joycelyn reminded him. Her suggestion undoubtedly raised Ellison's ire. She even raised her chin provocatively at Ellison after speaking. The man's sudden glum expression resembled an injured golden retriever. If it weren't for the fact that she wasn't tall enough, she would have petted his head.

Ellison ccloser. With one hand in his pocket, he rubbed his chin with the other hand a few times. His handsface suddenly leaned closer, and his warm breath enveloped Joycelyn in an instant.

"What? Do you want to devour me? You must still abide by our conjugal agreement." Joycelyn blinked a few times.

Ellison's dark eyes glinted. His clear and seductive voice was so pleasant to her ears that it almost made her melt. "Fine. If you wantto rest for half a month, I'll take half a month off first and not go anywhere. After I have had my fill of you, then you can rest?" Joycelyn did a double take. What the hell was this? They had to take shifts when having sex? While Joycelyn was still in a daze, Ellison lowered his head and kissed her. "You are amazed by my perfect plan, aren't you?" "Perfect my ass!" Joycelyn was pissed off now. She flung Ellison's hand away and walked to the basin with a sullen face to wash her hands.

She finally understood the meaning of those contractual agreements whereby it was stated so-and-so would have the final say. No matter how the consumer interpreted the terms, the corporation always had countless ways to turn things around to its advantage.

After the family lunch, everyone left the old Grant residence in the afternoon.

Sandra and Leon Davey did not cback together for the sake of Lucky, that black furball.

When they got home, Ellison and Joycelyn told Isolde Grant about the matter of Joycelyn's birth background. After listening to the couple, Isolde and her caregiver, Luna, were first surprised and then relieved.

"It's fine. From now on, the Grant family's place will be your home. Even if you don't want to live with Ellison anymore, he'll be the one to get lost. I guarantee that this will be your hfor the rest of your life." Isolde held Joycelyn's hand and told her this with grandmotherly affection.

Ellison couldn't believe his ears. “Grandma, can't you paintin a more positive light?" His handsface was contorted with displeasure. What did she mean by "don't want to live with Ellison anymore?" "Fine. I'll paint you in a more positive light then. Go busy yourself with your work and earn more money for my granddaughter-in-law to spend," Isolde rebuffed him impatiently as if she was talking down to a child.

1/4 ous Chapter 277 It seemed like the old lady felt that Ellison was an eyesore even if he was only sitting at the swing It was probably because she got fed up from seeing him too much Joycelyn finally knew how Ellison mastered the art of literary put-downs. He warned "Sandra will be back soon. She's quite an expert in this field; Lama chimed in at this prin "No worries. Just go with the flow. Actually, Sandra and I are very happy to have all of you as my familyyyy ho dwell too long on her background, When one was contented, one's imagination would not run wild.

"Furthermore, Ellison is also helping me. If there's any news, we can follow up. If there's no news, things are emlege now," Joycelyn wasn't bothered at all by either prospect.

She then changed the topic. "Let's not dwell on this. I still have to meet Pearl later to get her advice on smaten "Liam Nolan is now known as Liam Grant. He's like a ticking tbomb placed in the company by the branch tandby. Although Pearl is a girl, I think her ability is not inferior to Liam Grant's. It's best that we make thats early "I know something about this girl. The poor thing has gone through a lot. 1 wonder whether the was affected, holde refish after a soft sigh.

"I believe Pearl can overcthe challenges. She has always been trampled all over by overheating, des bax kon't gen up, despite the difficult conditions. Now that the opportunity has come, I believe the won't give it up. Only thing is, I don't know how her family is doing..." Joycelyn paused at this point.

The worst that could happen to a girl was if she was born in a family of money-grading relatives who kept leeching the fruits of her labor. No matter how talented the girl was, she wouldn't be able to escape this kind of abyss.

"William has already investigated. There's only her mother who's in ill health and therefore dependent on her. I've told William to double the amount disbursed to her in terms of scholarships and allowances over these few years? "That's great! Now that we've solved her worries, she can feel more at ease Joycelyn felt relieved just thinking abou "Mm-hmm. Your new laboratory is temporarily located on the 16th floor of the office tower. It was already ready yesterday, You can head there straightaway tomorrow," Ellison said leisurely.

Joycelyn listened to him attentively, and the admiration in her eyes was obvious. He had arranged everything so well "Grandma, how did you raise him in the past? You have taught him so well. He's already very handsome, but when he's serious, he's even more handsome. Teach me, please!" Joycelyn held the elderly woman's arm and leaned her face on the other woman's shoulder. Her clear and bright eyes were looking at Ellison without blinking.

Ellison had always appeared stern when discussing company matters. However, when he heard Joycelyn's flattery, he could not suppress the smile on his lips.

He glanced at his beloved woman from the corner of his eyes, and his tone beca little arrogant. "I was born with it "Bah! I was the one who gave birth to your father, and your father gave birth to you. With our good genes, it's simply not possible to bear weak offspring. This is called hereditary traits. Isolde pursed her lips as she raised her hand to punch her grandson's arm. “Oh, my hand!" Joycelyn laughed at the elderly woman's antics and immediately helped to massage her hand. "You are right, Grandma." "This brat has a body full of muscles. Joycelyn, you have to eat more. You are too thin.” Isolde led Joycelyn to the dining room. "I've told Luna to stew lots of nourishing soup for you. Have more later." 2/4 4.91%L +23) Chapter 277 Joycelyn assumed it was just one soup bowl at the most.

To her shock, when she arrived at the dining room, she saw the dining table was... completely covered by bowls after bowls of nourishing soup.

There were all kinds of health-enhancing soups like creamy broccoli cauliflower soup, chicken and ginger noodle soup, beef and barley soup, etc. There were about eight or nine types in all.

Joycelyn was dumbfounded. "That's too much!" Previously, Leah said that she was just weak and she had over-exerted herself that day. Surely there was no need for her to gobble so much nutritious food? "It's fine, just have whatever you like. If you can't finish it, we'll finish it for you." Isolde bade Joycelyn sit down. And the appetizer was a bowl of chicken and ginger noodle soup...

It was literally a soup buffet.

When she was done with the health-boosting soup, two more beauty-nourishing soups were pushed to her.

Isolde even packed two more types of soup for Joycelyn to bring back for supper.

Joycelyn had promised the elderly woman that she would finish the soup. When the couple reached home, she immediately pestered Ellison to have some, "Finish it quickly and then we can go to bed," Joycelyn pleaded coyly with Ellison.

Ellison simply frowned and looked annoyed. "I'm not having any of it."

"Con, finish it. I'll give you a kiss! This is just soup, not medicine"m herdsmedicine Joycelyn bit herrdsy lips lightly. Her dbe-like dewy eyes gazed beseechingly at Ellison. Ellison's Adam's apple bobbed a few times before he grudgingly slurped down one bowl.

His frown deepened almost immediately after that.

"Good! You might as well finish this one too." As she spoke, Joycelyn fed him the chicken and ginger soup in her hand.

Ellison's demeanor made it look like he was being forced to take poison.

After he had finally gulped down all the contents, he felt his entire body heating up, and beads of perspiration began appearing on his forehead.

Joycelyn stared at his chiseled, handsface that had turned unusually red. "Is there something odd with this soup? Why is your face so red after taking it?" Joycelyn was very puzzled. She was already married to Ellison. Surely there was no need for Grandma to give them anything with aphrodisiac properties...

Ellison took a few deep breaths and took off his suit jacket. He unbuttoned his shirt to almost his navel.

To her horror, the next thing Joycelyn saw was blood oozing from Ellison's nose!

"Oh, gosh! You are having a nosebleed!" Joycelyn becm panicky. She quickly put down the soup bowl in her hand and frantically grabbed stissues to stop Ellison's nosebleed. "I must hand it to Grandma!" Ellison's icy face had turned completely red by now.

Good grief! Surely a mature man in his thirties wouldn't have such a reaction? He was more like a young adherent burding, with youthful vigor!

"No! How can I let others know that my nose is bleeding from drinking the chicken and ginger coupe How emborrado Ellison felt very hot and unbearable all over as if his entire body was on fire.
