Chapter 51 Chapter 51 Joycelyn was still cleaning up fruit peels on the table when she heard a voice trying to strike up a conversation .
Instinctively , she glanced up .
It was the man she had accidentally bumped into earlier .
Joycelyn didnt want to cause any trouble .
She briefly glanced at Leon , then quickly returned to her task , focusing on tidying up the table .
พล .
ร Even though she was doing menial cleaning work , Joycelyn performed it with meticulous care , making sure everything was spotless .
In such an elite circle , she stood out like a breath of fresh air , humble and unpretentious , treating her work with respect , offering Leon only a polite glance without responding At that moment , Ellison , who had been surrounded by people , noticed a familiar figure in the crowd .
Once he confirmed it was Joycelyn , he sent Haddy to handle the guests while he made his way over with a drink in hand .
Let me introduce myself .
Im Leon .
How about we exchange WhatsApp numbers and grab some late night snacks tonight ? Leon said , pulling out his phone .
The self service area was relatively empty , and even though the music played softly in the background , Leons attempt at flirting was loud and unmistakable .
Sorry , Im working and didnt bring my phone ! Joycelyn politely declined , looking up at him .
Normally , a rejection like that would be respected , but Leon wasnt your average guy .
He thrived on the challenge of someone who wasnt impressed by him .
No worries , Ill stick around and wait until youre done , Leon said , his eyes full of affection as he gazed at Joycelyn .
Before Joycelyn could respond , she saw a familiar figure walking toward her with an unmistakable presence .
Ellison had overheard everything and , with a swift motion , grabbed Leon by the neck from behind .
What the hell do you think youre doing ? Trying to steal my woman ? Ellisons voice was cold and filled with authority .
Ah , Ellison , easy ! Youre choking me ! Leon yelped , his handsome face contorted in pain , and even spilling his champagne in the process .
Joycelyn , who had been only a short distance away , overheard the conversation .
She thought , I have already changed into the hotel uniform and was wearing a mask , so how did Ellison recognize me ? Panicked , she quickly looked down and grabbed the cloth she was using to wipe the table , hoping to make a quick exit .
Where are you going ? Ellisons deep voice called out to her.
Joycelyn froze , startled , and slowly turned around .
Her eyes met his , and she nervously asked , Sir , is there something you need ? Her voice sounded distant , almost as though she didnt recognize him .
17:10 de , 11 , Feb Chapter 31 51 % A This was a grand event , with Ellisons friends and colleagues in attendance .
If her identity were to be revealed , she could only imagine how badly things would go with all these wealthy onlookers .
Ellisons brow furrowed , a shadow passing through his eyes .
His gaze was sharp as he looked at Joycelyns clear eyes , clearly displeased Realizing her mistake , Joycelyn quickly corrected herself , Mr.
Grant .
Even then , she still looked as though she was ready to flee at any moment .
She had noticed Ruby and a few others coming OVEL Let go of me , Im going to suffocatel Leon was still pleading , trying to get Ellison to release him .
Call her Mrs.
Grant .
Ellisons words stunned both Leon and Joycelyn .
Joycelyn felt like she was about to drop the cloth in her hand .
Everything she had feared seemed to be coming true ..
She shook her head frantically , her eyes wide with panic as she tried to reject it .
Leons face was a mixture of shock and disbelief .
What ? Mrs.
Grant ? His voice was full of astonishment .
Joycelyn , mortified , wished she could stuff a cloth in his mouth to stop the noise .
Why are they shouting so loudly Joycelyn thought , Uh … I really need to get back to work , Joycelyn said nervously , as she saw Ruby and the others walking closer .
She quickly grabbed the cloth and tried to make her escape .
Mr.
Grant , is there a problem with this cleaner ? Has she done something to upset you ? Ruby smiled sweetly as she approached them .
As she got closer to Ellison , the matching outfits of the two stood out even more .
Ellison released Leon from his grip .
He had changed into the suit William had passed to him and now looked completely different .
His cold , expressionless face made him look more like a man in charge than someone attending a birthday party .
Ruby seemed slightly anxious .
Ruby then looked at the coughing Leon , shooting a glance at the distressed Joycelyn .
She then turned her attention back to Ellison .
I paid for her to work here .
Shes really terrible she cant even wipe up the spilled wine properly .
Ellison has a thing about cleanliness .
Ruby was deliberately making things difficult for Joycelyn in front of everyone .
Joycelyn , head down , quickly grabbed the cloth and moved toward Leon , trying to wipe the table clean and leave as quickly as possible .
The pressure of the situation made her break out in a cold sweat .
Ellison , holding his suit jacket , turned to Ruby with eyes that were cold as ice .
His voice was chilling as he said , If you know I have a thing about cleanliness , then two people should be handling the cleaning , not just one .
Leon , hearing this , immediately snatched the cloth from Joycelyns hand .
Ill do it myself , he said , eager to avoid any further conflict .
