It was definitely her .

Ellison put down his pen and took a moment to reply : [Congratulations , Mrs.
Grant , Im looking forward to it .
] Joycelyn sent a giggle with a kiss emoji .
Ellison found her childish , but kind of cute .
He scrolled through his emoji collection and found none .
Finally , he chose a default smiley face .
When Joycelyn saw that emoji , her smile instantly disappeared .
She even felt a bit panicked .
Joycelyn : [ Why did you send that emoji ? Are you angry ? ] She didnt think she had said anything to upset him .
She was happy with her 3 thousand dollars salary and never meant to come across as ungrateful .
Ellison glanced at his phone , seeing the message , and sent back two question marks .
Joycelyn : [ That emoji can mean sarcasm , indifference , or impatience .
] Ellison : [ Got it.
] Joycelyn : [ You dont have any emojis at all ? ] Ellison : [ No , I dont chat much .
] Joycelyn tried to hold back her laughter .
In her excitement , she forgot that she was talking to the famous and respected CEO .
She replied : [ Old fashioned .

He stared at the word old , as if trying to burn a hole through it .
He wondered if he was really old .
Annoyed , he decided not to reply .

It was Linda .
Joycelyn also took a look , thinking .
Isnt she taken away ? How is she back so soon ? Linda not only came back herself but also brought people to help move her things .
She still looked arrogant , showing no signs of having been fired .

How dare you covet the man I fancy ? Since you married a poor man , you should stay a lowly woman and stop dreaming of climbing up to Haddy .
She added , Did your husband help some big shots with major deals , so he sent you to seduce them ? Or did he make you sacrifice your looks for his performance ? Hmm ? * Although young , Cecilia carried the arrogance and pride of a wealthy heiress in her bones .
She was best friends with Ruby , and the two were quite similar .
However , this barrage of accusations made Joycelyn frown in exasperation .
Miss Jones , this is a workplace .
Please dont shout , Joycelyn said calmly , her clear eyes showing no fear of Cecilias attacks .
She must have seen them together yesterday and assumed there was something between her and Haddy It was ridiculous .
Cecilia never expected Joycelyn to dare to talk back to her , calling her out for shouting .
It was clearly an insult .
Furious , she stomped forward in her high heels .
She stood in front of Joycelyn and noticed the wedding ring on her finger .
