- Chapter 183
- Joycelyn drove the car back to the Grant Group’s car park, parked in its designated spot, and charged it.
- She was in a rather good mood.
- Just as she reached the elevator, she saw Ellison get out of the car
- “Mr. Grant!” Joycelyn called out sweetly.
- Her sweet voice echoed in the quiet car park, making her look even more charming.
- “Mm.” Ellison pretended to be deep in thought.
- He walked neither fast nor slow. He tidied his culls and covered his sleeves with the black watch on his wrist. He was wearing a custom–made black suit that accentuated his height and long legs.
- Half an hour ago, he was a seductive tyrant. Now, he was calm and composed, giving off a cold and domineering vibe.
- Of course, Joycelyn did not dare to get too close.
- Even though they were already very familiar with each other, she still had to show the respect that employees should have
- towards their boss.
- She praised. “Mr. Grant, your clothes are indeed custom–made. You look so handsome in them.”
- The corners of Ellison’s lips curled up as he looked sideways at her calmly.
- Is that an innuendo? he thought
- “Am I not handsome when I’m not wearing it?” Ellison lowered his voice and looked at Joycelyn with his dark eyes.
- Things escalated so quickly.
- Joycelyn originally wanted to tease him but this counterattack unexpectedly stunned her.
- Her face flushed red.
- William got out of the car behind. Although he was a distance away and could not hear him, this man was saying these words in such a perverted way.
- Joycelyn’s face turned red all the way to the back of her ears.
- “I’m not talking to you anymore,” Joycelyn snorted and walked towards the elevator with a red face.
- She walked all the way to the elevator at the end of the lobby.
- Ellison strode forward with his long legs and followed Joycelyn. Joycelyn walked quickly, but his legs were long, so the distance between the two of them was basically never widened.
- Seeing him follow, Joycelyn changed to another elevator. Ellison walked forward and scanned his thumbprint..
- Joycelyn saw that an elevator had opened so she immediately pressed the button to close the door after getting on but it didn’t stop him from coming in.
- Joycelyn snorted and walked to the corner to make room for William.
- William had already run to the lift door with the documents when Ellison’s slender lingers pressed the door shut,
- “Next one” said Ellison before the door shut.
- He left William standing in the lift lobby.
- Joycelyn was surprised. She asked, “Why didn’t you let William
- If William didn’t come in, then she would just get out of this elevator. Joycelyn prepared to walk out when Ellison grabbed
- her am.
- He said, “This is the CEO’s personal elevator. No one else cart enter it.”
- Joycelyn was confused at first.
- “No wonder this elevator required fingerprints! she realized.
- She was too hasty earlier.
- “I don’t want to be with you,” said Joycelyn scratched his finger.
- His elegant and beautiful hands were like a pair of pincers when he grabbed someone.
- “It hurts… It hurts!” Joycelyn pretended to be in pain and tried to make him let go. Her charming oval face was scrunched
- up.
- “I know how much force you can withstand from me,” Ellison murmured.
- After Ellison closed the elevator, he took a step forward and pushed Joycelyn against the wall. His tall and slender body pressed against her.
- “Mm!” Joycelyn struggled, trying to pull away.
- This elevator was the CEO’s exclusive elevator, but when it opened later, someone outside would see this ridiculous scene!
- “Get away from me!” she exclaimed.
- “Don’t worry, I’m the only one who can see the surveillance footage, Ellison murmured as he hugged Joycelyn’s waist and rubbed it gently.
- That tingling sensation spread throughout her body and along her tailbone.
- Joycelyn was not tall and only reached his shoulders. Looking at his well–defined pecs, she wanted to bite him.
- “Who asked him to mess around!‘ she thought.
- Ellison lowered his head and looked at her shy expression. The Eght in his dark eyes became more and more intense. In the end, he stared at her lovingly.
- “Good girl…” murmured Ellison. His voice, now hoarse and lazy, made her heart skip a beat.
- Joycelyn swallowed and retorted, “So corny.”
- He had never called her such a mushy and intimate name before Joycelyn’s eyes flickered. She was barely able to meet his gaze. This felt so much like a passionate and loving relationship
- But they clearly weren’t….
- “Don’t like it?” he asked and then laughed when he noticed the wily she stiffened like a flustered rabbit. His voice was low as if it came front the depths of his chest. His eyebrows and the comers of his mouth were filled with a gentle smile
- “No… I’m not used to it. Joycelyn replied truthfully.
- She clenched her fists and pressed them against his chest.
- She wanted to escape but couldn’t. She was also afraid that the elevator would suddenly open.
- What are you doing?” asked Joycelyn. She did not dare to lie inhersed in such an intimate atmosphere,
- “Nothing much. What do you think of me compared to that handsome hunk in your school?” Ellison stared at her with hist dark eyes. The smile on his lips was a little serious as he spoke in a magnetic and mellow voice.
- Joycelyn looked up and blinked.
- He suddenly seduced me. Is he jealous of that Sean dude?‘ she thought in an amused manner.
- Joycelyn burst out laughing.
- She replied. “If I was in high school, I might like that kind of guy but I’m already 26 years old. I don’t like that kind of guy
- anymore.
- Ellison didn’t listen to the second half of the sentence. He only heard the first half. His handsome face, which had been smiling a second ago faded immediately.
- Joycelyn instantly stopped smiling
- She thought, ‘His expression changed in just a second. That’s so scary
- “Let me hear it again. Ellison said through gritted teeth as his breathing became heavier.
- Joycelyn did not say a word.
- The tension in the air became palpable, but before the situation could escalate further, Joycelyn’s stomach growled loudly,
- She awkwardly said, “I’m hungry.”
- “Eat me,” Ellison replied instantly. He didn’t change his posture and continued to press her against the wall.
- Joycelyn was puzzled.
- Then, memories flashed across her eyes.
