- Chapter 115
- Cecilia stepped forward at the door, but Leon blocked her.
- She tried to look inside, getting anxious and even using her hands, but Leon was like an immovable statue, blocking her way with a mischievous look
- “Mr. Davey, step aside. You can go in, why can’t I?” Cecilia looked at the floor filled with red roses and the symphony orchestra inside.
- The large restaurant was beautifully and dreamily decorated, but there was only one table of people.
- She was really jealous of the people inside.
- “Let’s go, let’s eat downstairs. It’s my treat. Put everything on Haddy’s tab, or let Ellison waive the bill.” Leon couldn’t really let this person stand at the door making a fuss and ruining the atmosphere.
- He directly wrapped his arm around Cecilia’s shoulder and took her away.
- Cecilia, wearing strappy high heels and exuding the aura of a wealthy young lady, was dragged away by Leon like a bandit. She kept looking back, trying to break free.
- Leon was strong, and handling someone like Cecilia, a delicate young lady, was like dealing with a little chick.
- “Stop looking back, he’s not your type,” he said.
- nxious that sh was so anxious
- “Who is it? Do I know her? Which woman dares to go after Haddy?” Cecilia was s
- she was about to cry.
- “You don’t know her. She’s prettier than you. Stop thinking about it. Leon kept adding fuel to the fire.
- After getting her into the elevator, he quickly closed the door.
- Then Cecilia began to wail.
- Leon chewed on the cherries as he enjoyed watching her cry as if he was a bully.
- In the restaurant, Joycelyn finally breathed a sigh of relief when she no longer heard the noise at the door.
- “Let’s eat, and then we’ll go home,” Ellison said, his brows furrowed, clearly annoyed by the disturbance.
- “Okay” Joycelyn nodded.
- “I’m finished here. I’ll make a quick call,” Haddy said with poise, putting down his knife and fork. He strolled to the window, taking in the night view as he dialed.
- The tall, elegant figure stood in the shadows, creating a very pleasing picture.
- Although still present, he had already separated himself from the couple’s world, making his presence as minimal as possible to avoid making the atmosphere awkward.
- With the two people out of the way, Ellison finally relaxed his furrowed brows a bit.
- “This time was a bit sudden, let’s choose a better place next time,” Ellison said in a deep voice, his serious expression suggesting he was already planning their next private time together.

- “Anywhere with you is a good place, Joycelyn said considerately.
- Her soft voice, paired with those sweet words, instantly lifted Ellison’s mood. He smiled at Joycelyn and said. “As expected of Mrs. Grant”
- “Cheers. Mr. Grant. Joycelyn raised her wine glass and clinked it with his
- Both of their glasses were filled with juice.
- She couldn’t drink alcohol, and Ellison had to drive, so the atmosphere was just right.
- Tonight’s dinner helped Joycelyn relax from her tension, making her feel much more at ease.
- After finishing their meal, Joycelyn and Ellison prepared to leave the restaurant and go home to avoid running into Cecilia.
- Haddy noticed the couple standing up and ended his call.
- “Looks like I’ll have to be Ellison’s assistant today.” Haddy murmured, grabbing the bouquet of flowers and following the couple. “Let’s go, Mr. and Mrs. Grant”
- “Sorry to trouble you,” Joycelyn said, feeling a bit embarrassed.
- Such a large bouquet wasn’t practical for Ellison to carry, and she probably couldn’t manage it on her own either.
- “It’s no trouble at all. I happen to be going to the garage as well.” Haddy said casually, showing no airs.
- “Thank you,” Joycelyn said, putting on her sunglasses and taking Ellison’s arm as they left.
- Wearing sunglasses at night looked quite comical and would be out of place on anyone else.
- But Haddy didn’t make a fuss about it.
- Joycelyn felt that being around such outstanding people actually made her feel more relaxed.
- As expected of the good friends carefully chosen by Ellison, they’re all quite impressive.
- The three of them had just entered the elevator when Haddy’s phone rang. “It’s Leon.”
- He answered the call, said a few words, and then they headed to the underground garage.
- After hanging up, Joycelyn, holding Ellison’s arm, watched the elevator slowly descend, her small hand constantly fiddling
- with his suit sleeve.
- “What’s wrong?” Ellison lowered his gaze, his eyes staring deeply at her.
- “Nothing.” Joycelyn said, not voicing her inner worries.
- She thought that a wealthy woman like Cecilia wouldn’t bother with someone like her.
- After all, she was just an ordinary person.
- out
- Thinking this way, Joycelyn felt less concerned about the matter. If she went out again, she decided she would put on some makeup or change her hairstyle.
- The elevator reached the basement.
- Coincidentally, Leon had already found their parked car
- “Just your kilom asked.
- “Yeah, Cecilia probably went upstairs to look for you. I thought you all left, so I came down.” Leon, being perceptive, waited until Ellison unlocked the car, then opened the passenger door. Please, Mrs. Grant.”
- You’re doing pretty well as a lackey Ellison said, teasing him about his attitude.
- Son cloned the passenger door and quickly ran to the driver’s seat. With the same subservient demeanor, he invited Ellison,
- Mr. Grant, please?
- With a cool expression, Ellison got into the car while Leon closed the door.
- Then he helped Haddy load the large bouquet of flowers into the car.
- Not far away, Cecilia had come to the basement on a whim and spotted several luxury cars. She immediately hid behind at nearly pillar
- Seeing Maddy holding that large bouquet of red roses, her eyes turned red with jealousy.
- Cecilia took out her phone, zoomed in, and took a photo of the woman in the passenger seat.
- “If I find you, you’re done! Cecilia gritted her teeth
- The photos wasn’t very clear, and the woman in the passenger seat was wearing sunglasses
- Cecilia squinted her eyes and looked a few more times.
- Even though the woman’s sunglasses covered most of her face, the smooth contours, well–defined nose, and pretty lips suggested she was a very beautiful woman.
- However, she looked somewhat familiar if Cecilia had seen her somewhere before.
