Chapter 139 Chapter 139 Joycelyn saw his expression soften , his gaze shifting from cold to warm .
It caught her off guard , and for a moment , she couldnt look away .
35 % The chatter in different languages around her was a bit overwhelming , but the nervousness of almost being caught made her heart race .
Go ahead .
Im just gonna have breakfast , Joycelyn said , giving a playful smile like a proud wife .
Yeah , Ellison replied , his voice low .
As soon as she moved , he let go of his warm look and turned cold again .
Continue .
Then , Joycelyn breathed out , trying to act like nothing was off .
She had purposely acted a bit silly and used high pitched voice , hoping no one would notice her identity .
After all , Joycelyn was known as the quiet , intellectual type at work , so that voice and playful act were totally out of character .
She told herself not to snoop again when he was busy no more being curious .
On her way to the dining table , Joycelyn nearly tripped herself , nerves getting the best of her .
Slow down , careful , Ellisons voice was still calm , but she could hear the concern in it .
Im fine , Im fine , she replied , feeling a little too self conscious as goosebumps crept up her arms .
The whole thing was her idea , the persona she had to play .
Soon , she sat down and tried to focus on the food to distract herself from the tension .
The seafood breakfast helped , though , and she started to feel more relaxed .
Once Ellison finished his call , he joined her at the table .
You hungry ? he asked , wiping his hands with tissue .
He watched her , noticing how fast she was eating .
Yeah , just a little , she said , then let out a tiny burp .
Embarrassed , she quickly rolled her eyes and bit her lip .

Ellison gave her a quick glance , a slight smile tugging at the corner of his mouth .
Joycelyn wasnt sure if it was just her imagination , but when Ellison walked over and looked at her , it felt so loving .
Maybe she was just seeing things .
Was I too quick to jump in ? Do you think the companies are gonna find out about our marriage soon ? she asked .
You worried your cover is blown ? Ellison sipped his nutritional juice , giving her a curious look .
He studied her face like he was trying to read her thoughts .
The thing is , you only brought me along for the business trip .
If anyone asks , Ill probably get exposed , Joycelyn said , frowning as she picked at the king crab leg , a little frustrated .
Dont worry .
If you want it kept private , Ill make sure it stays that way .
No one will know youre my wife or that youre a staff , he reassured her .
1/3 Chapter 139 Wow , I didnt know capitalists were so self aware , Joycelyn joke , taking a bite of crab .
That was the truth .
She worked hard every day , making just over hiree thousand dollars a month .
Meanwhile , he … well , she had no idea how many millions his business made by just sitting back and enjoying the sunshine ..
Whats that saying ? Ask and you shall receive , she added with a rin .
Ellison gave her a small smirk but didnt answer .
Instead , he raised an eyebrow and asked , Compared to money , Im the more tempting option , huh ? Joycelyn froze for a second .
She avoided his gaze , busy chewing on her crab claws .
She was reminded of how things had gone down after she had drunk too much .
It had all been a mix of curiosity about relationships and the things between men and women .
But she wasnt about to admit that ..
Cat got your tongue ? Ellison teased , smiling wider .
The more she kept quiet and avoided him , the more he seemed to enjoy teasing her .
Joycelyn chewed on her words for a second before finally saying Well , it takes two to tango .
Ellison smirked slightly , his lips curving up as he nodded .
Yeah , That night , when he had had a bit too much to drink , he hadnt expected her to catch his attention so completely .
Joycelyns eyes , bright and innocent , were a stark contrast to the little bit of mischief the alcohol had brought out in her .
Lots of women had shown interest in him , but she was the first to actually make a move .
He thought it would be exciting , but instead , she had ended up clinging to him , crying like a little kid before they even did anything .
The sudden silence made the air feel … charged .
Joycelyn lowered her gaze , her cheeks flushed all the way to her ears .
I should probably eat less .
Were taking photos today , right ? Its past ten .
When do we arrive ? She finished the two crab legs she had and wiped her hands and mouth .
Were here , Ellison replied .
At that , Joycelyn stood up and rushed to the floor to ceiling windows .
Wow , look at that island .
Its gorgeous ! From a distance , it looked like a pearl resting on the water .
The closer they got , the more she was in awe .
This place is like a dream.
So many flowers .
Yeah , they brought everything in a month ago .
The setup was finished yesterday , Ellison said as he kept eating .
Joycelyn slid open the glass door and stepped out to the deck , feeling the fresh air and taking in the view .
When the ship docked , she was speechless .
The islands beauty took her by surprise .
An endless field of white and pink flowers swayed gently in the wind , with a crescent shaped arrangement of roses at the 2/3 11:23 Mon , Feb 17 o Chapter 139 highest point , completing the dreamy scene .
It looked like the islands symbol , giving off that sweet , innocent , or romantic vibe .
So beautiful .
The whole island felt like it was made just for her , like something out of a fantasy world .
Was this place set up just for our wedding photos ? she asked .
Yeah , all the flowers are fresh , so we need to snap the pics soon .
They wont look as good later , Ellison said , sipping his seafood juice .
Joycelyn had nearly finished the seafood , so he was just having what was left .
Alright , lets do the couple shots today .
This place is stunning , Joycelyn said , practically buzzing with excitement .
No girl could resist this kind of romance .
She would take a few solo shots , too couldnt waste such beautiful scenery .
At that moment , Ellisons phone rang .
It was William with an update .
The photographer they had planned on either wasnt coming , so they had to switch to another one .
He changed his mind at the last minute ? Does he want to die ? Ellisons voice had an edge to it .
35 % William explained , Its a bit sudden , but this new photographer is top notch .
Hard to even get him .
Weve looked into his background , and everything checks out .
Jason is backing him , so it should be fine .
Alright , let him do it , Ellison said with a sigh .
