Chapter 102 Chapter 102 Even Ellison squinted at Joycelyn , who was beside him .
K 68 % At this moment , Joycelyn was caught in a situation where she had just escaped one danger , only to walk right into another .
Everyones gazes were filled with all kinds of judgment and suspicion , pushing her directly to the center of heated discussions Coupled with the fact that she had accidentally fallen into Ellisons arms when she got off the stage earlier , everyone must have certainly cursed her countless times inwardly.
Joycelyn took a deep breath , raised the blank script in her hand , and said , Ms.
Lorne , as the director and an important spokesperson of the company , its very unprofessional of you to screw up at a critical moment .
If I hadnt stepped in to help , our company would have lost face in front of the worlds influential companies .
You being the victim does make your case more convincing , but I have my own views .
I suspect youve been bribed by corporate spies .
To make our company lose the opportunity to expand , you purposely made yourself have an allergic reaction to play the victim .
Secondly , my introduction just now was all the key points noted at the previous press conference , along with some core points from the three party meeting the other day .
My presentation was impromptu .
Bring out your speech , and well check it to see if I stole your speech manuscript in advance .
Joycelyns clear voice was loud and clear .
She explained everything unhurriedly , not overly defending herself .
She turned the issue back to Linda .
When Linda heard that she was accused of being bribed by corporate spies , she couldnt stay calm any longer .
Mr.
Grant , I didnt betray the company , nor have I ever thought about doing so , she said , her tone becoming agitated .
Her swollen face , which looked like a pigs head , combined with her agitated expression , made her look somewhat comical .
Joycelyn did not give her a chance to argue .
She slowly questioned , How come you had an allergic reaction just before you went on stage ? Its you … Linda pointed at Joycelyn and snapped .
Joycelyn put on an expression of sudden realization on her flawless face and said , Oh , its me .
I made you have an allergic reaction .
I was the one who swapped your speech manuscript .
And its me who made you unable to go on stage .
Then , I exposel my ambition , waiting for you to accuse me and catch me Ms.
Lorne , youre killing two birds with one stone .
You used me a small time employee , to ruin the companys project , and then conveniently made me take the fall and lose my job .
You pulled off the move of putting all the chips in really smoothly .
Small time employees are nothing , huh ? Theyre just pawns for you to harm as you please so that you can further your interest , right ? If it werent for the CEO being present , she would have said that his was a case of workplace bullying .
Her every word was eloquent and filled with brilliance , her specen flowing effortlessly .
The more she spoke , the more 11:59 Fri , Feb 14 B Chapter 102 GGG worked up she became .
Her voice simply drowned out the sound of the microphone coming from the stage .
After saying the last word , Joycelyn calmed down slightly .
68 This was because she realized that her aggressive stance earlier might have seemed quite harsh , and Ellisons gaze had been fixed on her for quite a while without looking away She thought , Well , I cant help it .
I was so darn mad .
I almost fainted on the stage earlier , so I had to let off this steam By the way , Mr.
Grant , I request that the police be called to prove my innocence , she said .
From the moment 1 arrived here , I havent been alone for a single moment , and there are plenty of surveillance cameras that can verify this .
Alright , Ellison said , agreeing to Joycelyns request .
William , handle it .
He asked William to call the police to assist in the investigation With such a clumsy tactic , they would naturally know the truth once they checked the surveillance footage .
Mr.
Grant … I have no grievances with Joycelyn , Linda said .
Why would I frame her ? If the companys project fails .
Ill have to bear responsibility too .
Besides , theres no reason for me to put my life at risk doing all this .
Lindas voice became increasingly hoarse as she spoke .

Dont worry , Ellison said , his serious and cold voice holding no warmth .
Let the evidence speak for itself .
Well know the truth once we check the surveillance footage .
Wheres the coffee you drank ? Pass it to William .
Lets have it checked and tested .
Hearing this , Linda heart skipped a beat .
This was especially the case when she saw Joycelyns fearless expression .
After carefully considering , she mentioned her coffee was still in the lounge and said a few words .
Then , her body went limp , and she fainted .
It happened that the paramedics arrived just in time and hurriedly treated her .
Ellison turned his head and comforted the still angry Joycelyn with a slightly softer voice .
You did great just now , he said , Lets head back and talk .
The matter will be investigated thoroughly .
Mm hmm .
Joycelyn nodded .
Admittedly , this was the first time she had encountered such an incident .
She was really flustered , and she was very angry 100 .
As soon as Linda fainted , she had no reason to confront her .
She could only wait for the investigation results to come out and clear her name .
Joycelyn kept her head down , following Ellison .
She was wrongfully accused based on distorted facts and had muhurled at her for no reason .
The more she thought about it , the angrier she became .
The two of them walked , one in front of the other .
Ellison exuded an air of noble elegance , his presence cold and commanding .
As he walked ahead , people felt a sense of awe One after another , they made way for him .
Joycelyn followed Ellison , looking like someone who was often the receiving end of other peoples anger .
She was so ng Chapter 102 focused on walking that she did not notice that the man ahead fad suddenly come to a stop .
She then bumped into his firm back with a hang Ellison was stunned .
The force of the collision made it hard not to feel the anger she was carrying at that moment .
Ellison turned around , looked down at Joycelyn , and comforted her , saying , Dont be angry .
I believe you .
E Joycelyn rubbed her aching forehead from the bump .
When she looked up , she saw Ellisons deep eyes .
He was watching her with concern , just like when she was on stage earlier , feeling flustered and helpless , while he was in the audience , encouraging her and cheering her on .
I know you believe me , but others dont , she said .
They surely think Im a cunning and petty person who framed my colleague and threw myself at you .
Who knows what theyll say about me .
Do you care about them or me ? Ellison said .
Huh ? The corners of his lips curled up , and his well defined facial features were filled with gentleness .
When Joycelyn heard this question , she immediately wrinkled her nose .
But this is in public .
We have to be reasonable .
You have no idea how scared I was earlier .
I almost tripped over on stage .
I was worried I would say something wrong and cause the company to suffer heavy losses .
She just casually dismissed all my efforts with one remark .
The more she spoke , the more aggrieved she felt .
Many staff members were coming and going on the path from the backstage to the lounge .
It was quite noisy .
Joycelyn could not hold it in .
She pouted and started crying .
When she opened the speech manuscript just now and saw that i was blank , she was scared out of her wits .
Dont cry .
My heart will ache , okay ? Ellison looked at her aggrieved tears and immediately felt heartbroken .
His heart ached as he understood the panic and fear she had felt earlier .
Ellison raised his hand , wanting to wipe Joycelyns tears .
She was still feeling wronged .
When she saw his hand coming toward her , she immediately swatted it away forcefully .
If someone sees this , theyll probably make up some story about me being a vixen trying to seduce her boss .
Calm down ! Joycelyn nearly squealed like a groundhog .
Ellisons face darkened as his hand was swatted away .
He felt a tax of frustration and helplessness .
Fine , its my fault His cold and clear voice aligned with Joycelyns temper .
Seeing how yielding he was , Joycelyn did not say anything else .
She just lowered her head and snorted .
Lets go .
Well want for the results .
The brief interaction betwe them was still captured by someone who had gathered the + courage to take the photo .
That person happened to capture the moment when Ellison lowered his head to comfort Joycelyn and reached out to wipe her tears .
11:59 Fri , Feb 14 G GG .
Chapter 102 681 It was the scene of a CEO personally comforting a small time employee .
No matter where this scene spread , it would make headline news and Joycelyn would be accused of trying to seduce the CEO .
