Chapter 191 Chapter 191 Joycelyn greeted Isolde first before turning to Leah Long time no see , Dr.
Mason , Joycelyn said calmly , showing nurprise or particular interest .
After handing the bouquet of flowers to Luna , she walked to tolle Grants side .
Her delicate face , incredibly beautiful yet disarmingly gentle , gave off a calming aura that could heal with a single glance .
Ah , my granddaughter in law ! Im picking out your wedding decorations .
Why dont you come have a look ? Isolde smiled warmly , grabbing Joycelyns hand and pulling her to sit next to her .
She didnt seem at all worried about her grandson Joycelyn breathed a sigh of relief .
Thank goodness Isolde hadnt been told about the recent shocks two fainting spells were already enough .
I trust your judgment , Grandma .
You decide Ellison and I will go with your choice , Joycelyn said softly .
It was a good idea to give the elderly lady something to focus on Dr.
Mason , come give me some advice .
Who knows , it might be relevant to you soon , Isolde grinned joyfully as she put on her reading glasses Dr.
Mason is getting married ? Joycelyn was surprised to hear the news .
Previously , Leah had shown an interest in someone off limits , and Joycelyn had feared she would never let it go .
Yet recently , there had been no further developments .
Yes , to my childhood sweetheart , Leah replied , her engagement ring catching the light , identical to Joycelyns .
Congratulations , Joycelyn offered with a gracious smile .
She didnt mind the similar ring design many people chose the same brand .
Thank you , Mrs.
Grant , Leah responded with a poised smile .
It seemed she was completely unaffected by past tensions .
Mrs.
Grant , didnt Mr.
Grant come with you ? Leah asked .
Hes still occupied , Joycelyn answered , her tone calm and neutral .
Is it because of the rumors online ? Could they be true ? With the wedding so close and Mr.
Grants big issue … Leah began , then quickly paused , catching herself .
Look at me , Ive said too much .
What is it ? Isolde asked , sensing that something was wrong Just some matters at the company .
Ellison will handle it , Joycelyn reassured her grandmother in law , wanting to put her at case .
Leah quickly added , Dont worry , Grandma .
Mr.
Grant has been through much worse and will manage just fine .
Isolde nodded knowingly .
That boy has weathered storms before ; a little more trouble wont hurt .
Hes probably too busy with work to focus on the wedding , so let him get things done .
We dont need a distracted groom at the altar .
Leah smiled in agreement , wisely choosing not to push further .
1/3 10-21 Thu , Feb 20 Br Chapter 191 Dr.
Mason , its getting late .
Youre newly engaged , so I wont take up more of your time .
Is your fiancé waiting downstairs ? Leah , catching the hint , smiled warmly .
Yes , I shouldnt keep him waiting .
We have plans ? Joycelyn nodded , not insisting that she stay .
After Leah left , Joycelyn went to wash her hands , preparing to join Isolde for dinner , After Joycelyn left to wash her hands , Isolde looked up from her Pad , a sly twinkle in her eyes behind her glasses .
As expected of you , Mrs.
Grant , Luna said , offering a thumbs up Isolde raised an eyebrow , clearly pleased with her assessment .
She had originally thought well of Leals patience and kindness However , after learning of her more inappropriate intentions , Isolde had begun to have second thoughts This visit had been allowed , but Leahs veiled remark about misfortune hadnt escaped Isoldes notice .
She thought , If something were to happen to that boy before the wedding , was she implying my granddaughter in law is unlucky ? Isoldes precious granddaughter in law was not someone others could casually judge .
Joycelyn , as she washed her hands , didnt forget to send Ellison a quick message , asking if hed had dinner .
But there was no immediate response .
Her worry started to creep in .
The Grant Group was facing significant challenges, and Ruby was planning a dinner with Ellison tonight to discuss strategies , Had he already gone to that dinner ? After their earlier conversation , Joycelyn found herself more drawn to Ellison .
The pang of jealousy felt uncomfortable , yet was completely undeniable .
She waited for a while , but there was still no reply .
Resigning herself , she tucked her phone away and left to join her grandmother for dinner .
Just as she stepped out , she heard a familiar voice .
Turning off the tap , she rushed out and peered toward the door It was Ellison .
Arent you working overtime ? Finished already ? Joycelyns voice betrayed her excitement Ellison handed his jacket to Luna , then walked up to Joycelyn and embraced her before moving toward the sink .
I saw your message checking on me , Mrs.
Grant , so I came right over , he explained , leaning over to wash his hands .
Before doing so , however , he leaned down and kissed her gently .
Joycelyn snorted , clearly unimpressed .
I just sent you a message , and you didnt reply when you saw it .
Ellison grinned , clearly enjoying himself .
Tim telepathic with you , Mrs.
Grant .
I can sense it.

Chapter 191 Joycelyn rolled her eyes but couldnt hide her smile .
Impl 8.915 % I saw on your computer today that Ruby asked you out for dinner .
I thought you had already gone there , the continued .
Oh , I left that out intentionally for you to see .
Were you jealous Imm ? Ellison laughed softly as he finished drying his hands , stepping closer .
He casually pinched her soft check , teasing .
Were you jealous just now ? Hmm ? Joycelyn puffed her cheeks out , looking all feisty , but she didnt respond .
She definitely wouldnt admit it , but her mind did wander to imagining Ruby throwing herself at him .
But , no way she was going to admit that .
No.
she said firmly , her tone leaving no room for argument .
Ellison leaned in closer , eyes narrowing in playful scrutiny .
He field her face gently , not letting her pull away .
Really ? Fine , just a little .
Joycelyn replied , her face turning a shade pinker .
Ellison raised an eyebrow , clearly not satisfied with her response Just a little ? Previously , he had been fuming about the men who dared to get too close to her Liam Nolan and the gigolo .
But now , the fact that she was so calm about being jealous stirred something in him .
Just a little ? he thought grumpily .
Alright , enough .
Joycelyn quickly changed the subject , trying to avoid giving him too much satisfaction .
Im hungry .
Lets She didnt want him reading too much into it , so she skillfully avoided a direct answer .
It amused her how happy he was when she got jealous .
Usually , he hardly ever smiled , but when he sensed even a hint of jealousy from her , he looked so smug .
Like a devilish charmer .
Joycelyn suddenly paused , her grin slipping .
Are you done with your work ? Everything okay ? Her casual question made his smile freeze .
He sighed exaggeratedly , trying to appear moody .

Joycelyn , not noticing his playacting , tugged at his shirt , pulling him closer , Is it serious again ? Its fine , Ellison replied , keeping up the act , pretending to be more serious than he really was .
