Ellison And Joycelyn: A Love Beyond The Rules

Chapter 282 At the 24-hour greasy spoon, Joycelyn and Sandra munched on chips as they listened to Lucy patiently and comforted her now and then.

"It's already annoying to go to work, yet all these guys keep popping up to givetrouble!" Lucy chugged down the beer like it was soda. She continued cursing and swearing as she drank and munched on chips.

"Um... is Clement bothering you?" Joycelyn could see Lucy was in a foul mood and tried to stop her from drinking too much. She hurriedly passed her a plate of sausages. “This is good." Lucy attacked the plate like ssausage-devouring machine.

At this moment, her mind was not dwelling on Clement but replaying the pained look on Haddy's handsface.

Thus, she dared not answer Joycelyn's question. "Don't mention him. It's been so many years since we graduated from high school. It's been almost ten years. How many things have happened? How many boyfriends have I had? How can I go back to him? "He was the one who wanted to leave back then, and he was also the one who abandoned us. Why should I reconcile with him now that he has decided to cback?" Opposite her, Sandra watched quietly with her chin resting on her hands. She was ignorant and naive, so she couldn't contribute anything.

"Mrs. Grant, why did he abandon the two of you?" Sandra finally couldn't contain herself anymore and asked out loud.

"Because the three of us were good buddies back then. He helped us a lot during our most difficult times." "Oh, you hadthere for a while. I thought both of you were involved in a threesome, like a ménage-à-trois." Sandra patted her chest in relief.

Joycelyn didn't know whether to laugh or cry. "No. In the past, when the two of them were in a relationship, I would occasionally tag along to be the third wheel." Sandra blinked her bright eyes at Joycelyn and asked, "So do you think that guy still has a chance with Lucy?" "I don't know." Joycelyn shrugged.

"No way! It's impossible for anyone to have a chance with me! I only want to earn money and beca rich woman. These men will only affect the rate at which I accumulate my wealth!" Lucy cut the other two girls short bluntly when she overheard their whispering. There was no room for negotiation at all in her tone.

"Then why did you say that Haddy did not agree to collaborate with them? Was he..." Joycelyn was a little hesitant and too embarrassed to ask outright.

However, Sandra was young and rash. She immediately piped up, "It's obvious that Haddy is jealous!" Lucy was chugging her beer midway and that comment made her choke on her beer. She began coughing violently.

Joycelyn hurriedly patted her back. "Whoa! Slow down." "Lucy, am I right?" Sandra pressed on.

Lucy did not dare to look at Sandra at all. She kept her head down and busied herself with the sausages.

"Actually, based on my understanding of Haddy, he's a very gentle and good-natured person. He's a classic 'I' personality. An 'I' personality is the best toy for an 'E' personality like you, Lucy. Isn't playing with him like training a puppy?" 1/4 07:58 Thu, 13 Mar K.

Chapter 282 Sandra did not understand, but her naivety also meant she didn't know any taboos. Thus, her words were equally uninhibited.

When Lucy heard the word "toy," her hands clenched the cutlery so tightly it was as if her life depended on it.

She only did it that day because she thought that he was easy to bully and that he would blush after she teased him.

However, that impulsive act brought much guilt.

94%1 +13 "What do you mean by 'T' and 'E'?" Despite being a married woman, Joycelyn was clueless about this subject and her interest was piqued.

Sandra answered, "MBTI, a test for personality types." "Oh... then what about you and Leon?" Joycelyn looked at the bubbly Sandra and asked with curiosity.

Sandra's cute round face froze for a second before she retorted without hesitation, "He can kiss my ass!" "Ahem!" Joycelyn almost gagged on the ferocious riposte from this girl.

Fortunately, Leon Davey was not around. Otherwise, the two of them would probably start quarreling.

"Let's not talk about this. I'll go back and ask for you tonight. Don't be angry." Joycelyn could not bear to see her bestie caught in a difficult position. She watched the server bring a plate of buffalo wings and hurriedly pacified Lucy. "This is your favorite, buffalo wings. Try it." At this moment, her phone rang.

"Is Mr. Grant checking on you?" Sandra caught sight of the number on her phone and smirked mischievously. Joycelyn immediately answered her phone. "We're still having buffalo wings outside. We're not back yet... Oh, I'll send it to you later." After ending the call, she dutifully messaged the address of the greasy spoon to Ellison.

On the other end, Ellison looked at the message with the address in it. He then glanced at the uninvited guest sitting on the sofa. "Why are you so nervous? It's just the three girls eating out." Haddy's eyes were gentle as he pretended to survey the huge office.

"I'm not nervous. I only asked Clement out for a discussion but he didn't turn up. I thought he might be catching up your wife and the others." When Ellison heard this, he immediately shut down the laptop, grabbed his jacket, and headed for the door. Haddy gave a sly smirk. "Why? Are you worried now?" with "I'm hungry from working overtime. Wanna join me?" When he reached the door, Ellison turned around to look at Haddy who was pretending to be unperturbed.

"Let's go." Haddy got up from the sofa without hesitation.

Joycelyn thought that her husband was worried, so she sent him the greasy spoon's address. To her surprise, she discovered six to seven Maybachs parked outside the greasy spoon less than 20 minutes later.

All the bodyguards in black filed out of the vehicles and surrounded the greasy spoon's entrance.

Fortunately, it was not the peak supper hour yet. Only two or three tables were occupied at the greasy spoon.

2/4 13 Mar Chapter 282 In the midst of the convoy, two familiar figures alighted from a Maybach and white Bentley

One possessed an impeccably noble bearing while the other appeared as wineXB6th a refined as fine wine Both exuded an andere for that was totally incongruous in a smoky, greasy spoon setting It was akin to a member of the royal family dropping in at a commoner's hangout Nevertheless, Joycelyn remained calm in the face of so much commotion.

"He's here with Haddy. We might as well discuss in person and see how the collaboration deal can be settled, kejemyn remarked.

Lucy got a shock. As she slowly turned her head, her eyes met Haddy's gentle dark eyes which were locked on her Startled, Lucy hurriedly averted her eyes. However, Haddy's eyes did not flicker or avoid her. Instead, he continued to paze at her.

"Why are you guys here?" Joycelyn directed her words to the man who had cto her side. He looked like he wanted to sit down, but he only stood still with a frown.

Joycelyn reached out and pulled him down to a chair.

"Why are you eating in such a place?" Ellison was a cleanliness freak. He only went to high tendrestaurants abdidid and did not even give this kind of greasy spoons a second glance whenever he passed by "Nothing wrong with eating here occasionally. This haggis sausage is so fragrant. Try it." Joycelyn brought one to his mouth.

Though he seemed to look down on the food in such establishments, he only hesitated for a moment before taking a bite.

"Haddy, it's good that you're here. Did you have sdisagreements with Lucy about work today? Joycelyn N linked arms with Ellison and asked Haddy who sat opposite him. "It was not about work." Haddy replied gently as he gazed intently at the annoyed Lucy.

"If you were not talking about work, then what were you talking about? Dating?" Sandra chimed in. After that, she tilted her head to grin at Haddy and Lucy.

This straight talk cout of the blue. Joycelyn and Ellison also turned in unison to stare at the couple in question.

Haddy was about to reply when Lucy lifted her high heels and kicked him under the table.

A footprint was instantly left on the expensive fabric of his pants.

The small tables in the greasy spoon were light-weight. When Lucy pulled her leg back, she accidentally hit the table leg and caused the entire table to wobble.

Everyone instinctively reached out to stabilize the table.

Sandra immediately lowered her head to check under the table.

"Gosh, Haddy! Who kicked you? Your pants are dirty now."
