Chapter 109 To avoid everyones conversation about romantic fantasy , Joycelyn buried her head and ate an entire six inch cake .
Everyone just assumed that she was still venting her emotions and did not bother her much .
After all , she had always been very quiet .
With the argument today why she was reacting like this to protect herself .
they figured she must have been really angry , which was After the celebration ended , everyone started cleaning up , getting ready to clock off and go shopping Suddenly , Selene wrapped her arms around Aurelia and the others , making secret plans in a soft voice .
At first , no one agreed , but in the end , they were convinced by Selenes enthusiasm .
Alright , well do that , Selene said .
Lets go see what that mysterious guy is like and help Joycelyn assess him .
Its her first time in a relationship .
What if she gets tricked by a scumbag ? I read online that many girls make desperate decisions as they try to escape their families and end up being taken advantage of by scumbags .
Selenes words were serious and thoughtful .
Joycelyn was a woman and a colleague who was easy to get along with , so everyone felt quite sorry for her situation .
Joycelyn , lets go together , Selene said with a smile .
After all , Mr.
Grants bonus is generous .
Lets go and spend .
Didnt you just move ? How about we buy ingredients and go to your house to have a feast ? Then , we can check out your partner and see if hes a good guy ? As soon as she finished speaking , everyone expectantly looked at Joycely , whose heart skipped a beat the moment she heard that .
Then , she quickly shook her head and said , Thats a little inconvenient .
He doesnt really like having outsiders over.
Sorry about that Ah , Im not trying to be harsh , but your partner is too much , right ? Selene said , looking concerned .
Why is he being so mysterious and secretive ? What does he do for a living ? Theres no issue , right ? She thought .
There are no photos of that guy , and no one is allowed to know more about him .
Its Joycelyns first time in a relationship .
Plus , she has a stunning look and flawless skin .
So , she can be easily taken advantage of by a scumbag Aurelia could not help but express her opinion as she cleaned up .
Joycelyn , is your boyfriend … really nice to you ? she said .
Why do I feel that hes so strict with you ? And hes quite obsessive .
Joycelyn thought , Indeed , I got into the relationship too quickly .
Everyone is a bit worried .
I know that .
Hes a really nice guy , just very busy , she said .
Weve known each other for a long time .
I know his character well .
My mom is still in the hospital .
Although weve cut ties , shes sick and has no one to look after her , so I have to find her a reliable caregiver .
I cant hang out with you guys .
Joycelyn came up with a suitable reason to put an end to everyones plans of going to her house .
Oh , you took a few days off the other day to look after her .
Is it very serious ? Aurelia asked again .
Shes had it tough over the years , with several illnesses .
Her condition is pretty complicated .
With that said , Joycelyn let out 1/3 Chapter 109 a sigh .
When it came to her relationship with her mother , she had come to terms with it and moved on .
Joycelyn had heard that Octavias father had been detained for soliciting prostitution , and Octavia had ended .
part time .
So , she figured no one took care of her mother .
* 72 % up working Because of that , she wanted to find a better caregiver .
Looking at Joycelyns flawless face , Aurelia said worriedly , When you go to see your mom , will your stepsister and the others make things difficult for you ? Do you need us to go with you ? I heard that after the fuss Mr.
Johnson caused , he has been transferred to a very backward place overseas .
Your stepsisters sugar daddy is gone .

What if she takes her frustration out on you later ? Mr.
Johnson has been transferred ? Joycelyn said , looking quite surprised .
After all , he was a top leader of the subsidiary .
Yeah , with such a scandal , it even made it online .
Fortunately , the bosses of the company thought that this would affect Grant Groups reputation , so they suppressed it .
By the time I found out , it had already been taken down .
Ah .
This was something Joycelyn did not expect .
She thought , In this age of the internet , information spreads too quickly .
Fortunately , it was suppressed .
If my situation had also been posted online , the impact would have been huge .
Selene bit her cake spoon and said with admiration , Apparently , Mr.
Grant stepped in .
He has a childhood friend whose entire family monopolizes the news and entertainment industries .
The friends of the super rich are all super rich .
Im so envious .
Joycelyn knew about this .
She thought , Its Leon .
I didnt expect that rich and spoiled kid to have such a powerful family background .
Ellison didnt ask , yet he still solved the problem for me .
Joycelyns lips instinctively curved into a smile .
Joycelyn , why are you smiling so sweetly ? Selene said .
Youre so cute after you started dating .
Selenes eyes were sharp .
She immediately spotted Joycelyn sneaking a smile .
Im not chatting anymore , Joycelyn said .
Im going to the hospital .
You guys go ahead and have fun shopping .
Joycelyn cleared the table with her colleagues .
Then , she packed her handbag .
She really was going to the hospital , and she would leave after finding a better caregiver .
These days , caregivers change their level of care depending on who is present , she thought .
If they dont see patients family members around , they will just go through the motions in looking after patients .
I need to do a surprise check and take a look to be sure .
Aurelia told Joycelyn to leave first , saying , Alright , well hang out next time then .
You go ahead .
Well clean up here .
We havent decided where to go .
Okay .
Joycelyn packed her handbag and went downstairs to hail a taxi .
Ever since she was kidnapped by the two brothers from the Mercer family , she had some fear of her own car and was scared of driving alone .
She went downstairs and took a taxi to the hospital .
2/3 C Chapter 109 As soon as she arrived at the hospital lobby and entered the elevator , the nurse behind her pushed the bed and asked everyone to wait for a moment , letting the patient go upstairs first .
It was Joycelyn who went in first .
She stood in the corner and did not have enough time to go out .
On a hospital bed , it was obvious that the patient was a woman .
She was wearing sunglasses , and her hair was messy .
Her body appeared to have no blood or injuries .
Her legs , covered under the blanket , were bent .
Ms.
Mercer , when the attending physician arrives later , you have to tell her the truth .
A life is at stake .
After the nurse finished speaking , the woman on the bed let out a moan , sounding as if she was crying .
Joycelyn found the sound somewhat familiar and couldnt help but glance at her a few more times .
Isnt that Octavia ? she thought .
Octavia was still crying , her hands covering her face as if she strongly resisted being seen .
Joycelyn immediately adjusted her mask.
When the nurse pushed the bed out , she followed .
Upon reaching the outside of the operating theater , Octavia was immediately wheeled into the operating theater .
As Joycelyn was about to leave , she overheard the nurses at the nurses station giving instructions .
The rich kid from the Wilson family said to use the best resources for the patient in the operating theater .
Tsk , he really is wild when he tomcats around .
He has had fun with many women this month who eventually ended up in the hospital .
What a freak .
Hes a notorious freak .
Joycelyn shuddered as she overheard the nurses conversation .
She didnt dwell on it and quickly went upstairs to check how the caregiver was taking care of her mother .
