Chapter 297 88%1 An hour later, Isolde was sent to the hospital. Worried she would not be able to take the blow, the ward was placed upstairs of Ellison's. In the quiet ward, there was a faint fragrance of perfume. Joycelyn sat by the bed with her eyes lowered, gently rubbing Isolde's hand.
"My dear child.. Isolde suddenly called out in a hoarse voice as if she was sleep-talking.
Joycelyn immediately held her hand tightly. “Grandma, I'm here.” Isolde slowly opened her eyes. She was a lady who had seen many storms. However, her eyes were filled with tears at that moment. She looked at Joycelyn and sighed. “It must've been hard for you..." "It's not, Grandma, Marrying him was my happiest day, and being your in-law is also my happiest time. Why would I feel down?" Joycelyn said with a chuckle. However, as she laughed, she could not hold back her tears. "Ellison..." Isolde said with difficulty. She did not even dare to ask. She was afraid the information would stab her heart like a knife. But if she did not ask, her heart couldn't be at ease.
"Ellison isn't awake yet, but he has gone through his critical moment. He will wake up." "That's a relief. Then we'll wait for him." Isolde turned her head and sobbed.
"Grandma, I'm here." Joycelyn's voice was gentle. Her tone was filled with warmth.
Yes, I'm fine, Dear," Isolde said while sobbing. Meanwhile, Joycelyn did not dare to look at Isolde's teary face. "Joycelyn, something is going on at the company. We have to deal with it." Sandra and Luna stood at the door. If it weren't urgent, Sandra wouldn't have wanted to disturb Joycelyn.

Joycelyn sighed softly and got up with her slightly uncomfortable body. "Luna, please take good care of Grandma." "I will." Luna had also cried before. Her eyes were red and there were tears on her face.
Joycelyn tried to pull herself together. She realized she needed to support her family. Sandra helped her take a few steps and heard Isolde crying in the ward. Her voice was so low that it made Joycelyn's heart feel like it was being stabbed by a knife.
"The Grant family has arrived at the company. I heard the entire upper echelons have been instigated to look for the acting CEO to manage the corporation." Sandra gritted her teeth.
Although it was said to be a proxy, it was a usurpation to control the Grant Group's industry. Joycelyn took a deep breath and said coldly, "Change your clothes. Also, pack sclothes for Grandma and Ellison." "Alright, I'll get the maid at hto prepare it." Sandra immediately took her phone and made a call. She asked the maid to prepare Isolde's things first.
"Haddy has discovered that the drone was controlled by Bellina and Tanya. They must be the culprit of this mess. Once we catch them, I'll show them no mercy!" Sandra was like an erupting volcano. If she didn't have other matters to handle, she would track Tanya and Bellina down to give them sgood beatings.
"Sandra, we can't sit still. Send the video we took previously to everyone we know. Since they've made their move, we must take ours!" 1/3 88%0 Chapter 297 Joycelyn's face looked calm. It was impossible to tell how she felt. Her slightly red eyes were clear and determined as she looked at Sandra.
Sandra immediately nodded. "I'll choose the most exciting one and distribute it to everyone in the Grant family." An hour later, at the Grant Group's Headquarters, Joycelyn had changed into a high-end professional suit. It was classic grayish-white. She looked refreshed, elegant, and dignified.
Sandra had also changed to a more professional suit. She wore an embroidered shirt and her hair was tied into a high ponytail. She followed behind Joycelyn with a fierce look.
At the meeting room, the higher-ups had been waiting. Along with them, the core representatives of the Grant Group, and several family members were present.
The large conference room that could almost accommodate 200 people was filled with more than half of them. Everyone was talking about the future of the Grant Group. They seemed worried about Ellison's condition, but there was not much concern on their faces.
"I heard Isolde also fainted. Grant Group can't be without a leader for a day. I think other than Second Miss Grant, no one can be the CEO." The person being mentioned was Sibyl.
Tanya was also present. Hearing the director's words, she nodded in satisfaction and added, "That's right. Mom, you're so capable. I know you can be a good CEO. It's tto show that women can be CEO too!" Sybil pretended to be embarrassed and replied, "Everyone, you're flattering me. This matter needs to be discussed before we can make a decision."
"Miss Grant, you are brave and resourceful. You possess the sleadership style as Mrs. Grant, m Everyone will agree to you being the CEO of Grant Group, Aaron chimed in from his wheelchair. Aaron hoped to flatter Sybil at this tso that she could give the project that he valued most to his branch.

The next second, the door of the conference room opened, and everyone looked at Joycelyn. Joycelyn walked in with her back straight and looked at Sybil in a neither servile nor overbearing manner.
“I don't think she will be as elegant as my grandma” Joycelyn's tone was mild. Her words and actions exuded a noble presence that made it impossible for one to look away.
"How can you talk to her like that? Apologize to her now, or I'll fire you later!" Zachary yelled at Joycelyn.
Grant Group's higher-ups looked at Joycelyn and were dissatisfied with her disrespectful attitude. However, when the members of the Grant O Group family saw Joycelyn, their gazes were different. "Mr. Willows, you're a director and you want to fire the CEO's wife. Which company has such a precedent?" Joycelyn glanced coldly at Zachary. Her gaze was unnerving and pressuring.
Hearing Joycelyn's words, the higher-ups and directors were in an uproar. Even Zachary looked at her in shock. Under everyone's gazes, Joycelyn walked to the main seat and sat down elegantly. As for the Grant family members, other than their indifferent expressions, no one dared to stop her.
"Since Ellison is absent, I'll temporarily be the CEO. Letintroduce myself first. My nis Joycelyn, and I'm his wife. You can callMrs. Grant." Joycelyn's voice was calm but firm. Her elegance and confidence made her look like a queen. She exuded an unparalleled presence that made people revere her.
