Chapter 119 Chapter 119 Mr.
Grant doesnt like gossip .
How about we go upstairs ? I need to use the restroom first .
Seeing that she couldnt change everyones mind , Joycelyn turned and headed upstairs .
She wanted to avoid being recognized by Isolde later .
Leah turned around just as Joycelyn headed upstairs .
She noticed Joycelyns serene profile and elegant figure .
Leah recognized Joycelyns figure but didnt say anything .
Instead , she quickly looked away and stayed by Ellisons side .
Mrs.
Grant , Ellison is here , Leah affectionately said as she walked over to Isolde .
Once Ellison sat down , Leah gracefully took her seat , exuding the demeanor of a CEOs wife .
Isolde only saw Ellison and didnt notice Joycelyn .
Why did you come alone ? Where is Joycelyn … ? I was busy and forgot to tell her .
Shes having lunch with her colleagues and probably didnt bring her phone , Ellison said coolly as he sat down .
How are you feeling today ? Any better ? Ellison brushed off the topic and changed the subject before Isolde could say more .
You and Joycelyn are boss and subordinate .
Do your colleagues at the company know that youre married ? Leah asked sweetly , full of curiosity .
Hearing this , Ellison , who was spreading a napkin , looked up and gave Leah a cold , penetrating stare .
Its not your place to ask about my private matters .
Leah was so taken aback by his gaze that she froze , not daring to move .
The atmosphere at the dining table was visibly freezing .
Dr.
Mason , could you and Luna help me prepare some dipping sauce ? Isolde said to ease the tension .
Leah knew that Isolde was giving her a way out , so she quickly nodded with an embarrassed smile .
Okay After Leah and Luna left , Isolde gently asked , Ellison , is it inconvenient for you and Joycelyn right now ! Grandma , she likes an ordinary and peaceful life .
I dont want her to be pushed to the center of attention because of me .
I also dont want her to end up like my parents , or for my children to be targeted and kidnapped , Ellison explained the reason to his grandmother for the first time .
Isolde sighed deeply , her voice tinged with sadness .
I understand .
Ill be more careful next time .
When you two go abroad .
I wont disturb you .
Enjoy yourselves and take lots of photos for me .
Okay Here is a card .
The password is the last six digits of the card number .
I came today to give it to Joycelyn .
There are 17 million dollars inside for her pocket money .
Isolde handed Ellison a diamond card to give to Joycelyn .
Its too much , she wont dare to accept it .
If you want to give it to her , you should do it yourself , Ellison said , not even glancing at the card .
Thats because you didnt handle it well , Isolde said with a loving yet slightly disapproving look .

I once gave her 300 thousand dollars and she didnt dare to spend it .
But when her salary was increased by a thousand dollars , she was so happy and even said she wanted to treat me to something delicious .
Thinking about it , the corners of Ellisons tightly pressed lips slightly curved up Isolde , with her experienced eyes , saw everything and pushed the card towards him .
Joycelyn has clear , bright eyes and a pure , kind heart .
If you were just wealthy and not handsome , she might not have wanted to marry you .
She chuckled playfully .
Ellison didnt argue .
When Leah returned with the dipping sauce , Ellison casually put the card in his pocket .
Upstairs , Joycelyn found a corner to sit in .
While eating , Selenes sharp eyes quickly spotted something at the main entrance .
Hey , its Mr.
Grant and that elegant woman , Selene exclaimed excitedly .
Curious , Joycelyn looked over .
to Ellison .
Indeed , she saw Leah handing a paper bag to Ellison .
They seemed to be talking about something .
The sunlight bathed his tall figure , making him appear almost divine and untouchable , with a noble aura in every movement , Joycelyn was a bit entranced , but then she thought , this situation was not so simple .
Arent these two just eating together ? Why choose to give a gifi in such a noticeable way at the restaurant entrance ? Leal certainly knew how to make a scene .
Mr.
Grant , this is the outfit I borrowed last time .
Please pass it on to Mrs.
Grant , Leah said softly .
She stood next to Ellison , holding the paper bag with both hands .
Leah , with her beautiful , gentle eyes , looked softly at Ellisons handsome face .
Ellison glanced at the paper bag , took it with one hand , and left .
It took about half a minute in total .
After he left , Leah still stood there , watching his back for a long time .
It wasnt umil he entered the Grant Group that Leah reluctantly retracted her gaze and walked back .
Coincidentally , when she turned around , she saw Joycelyn eating by the window on the third floor .
Joycelyn casually glanced over and unexpectedly made eye contact with Leah .
Ignoring Leahs gaze , she continued eating Hey , is Mr.
Grant always this aloof in relationships ? Isnt he supposed to be a cold and abstinent CEO on the surface but a clingy puppy in private ? Selene asked , biting her fork with a doubtful expression .
Joycelyn didnt respond , silently agreeing with Selenes statement .

Mrs.
Grant is here too .
Could it be that Mr.
Grant didnt accept a blind date arranged by the elders Aurelia curiously speculated .
Joycelyn listened intently , quietly eating without voicing her opinion .
Nobody dares to report on Mr.
Grants news and rumors online .
I wonder which amazing woman managed to be with such a perfect person like Mr.
Grant ? Selene wondered aloud , filled with curiosity and a bit of envy .
Joycelyn continued eating silently , not saying a word .
Selenes phone dinged twice , and she eagerly checked it A colleague just sent me this .
Everyones speculating that this woman has an unusual relationship with Mr.
Grant .
It seems shes the daughter of a prominent medical family , Selene whispered , sharing the latest news she received .
Joycelyn , while eating slowly and thoughtfully , also leaned in to take a look .
Looks great , send it to me , Joycelyn asked Selene to forward it to her phone .
I forgot my phone , Ill check it later The best part of a secret marriage was enjoying gossip about her own husband openly and being able to confront him about it later .
