Chapter 129 Chapter 129 ས ཌྜེ 92 % # However , before Isolde completely called Joycelyn out , Ellisons stern voice interrupted .

Grandma , were in public .

Shes a bit shy .

Ellison bent down and reminded her .

Isolde pressed her lips together , stopping herself from saying the last word .

Her smile towards Joycelyn became even kinder .

What did she call you ? Lucy asked Joycelyn in a low voice.

Its so noisy here .

I didnt hear it clearly , Joycelyn replied softly .

Her heart couldnt help but skip a beat .

Luckily , there was some distance between them , and the noisy airport announcements about boarding made it hard for anyone to hear clearly .

Joycelyn suddenly felt like she was walking on thin ice , finding her current life more challenging than she had imagined .

She adjusted her mask and smoothed her hair , trying to look more natural .

As she approached , she politely called out to Isolde , Mrs.

Grant .

Lucy also politely greeted her .

Meanwhile , Leah kept gazing admiringly at Ellison , without hiding it from Joycelyn .

Hey , you guys go together and have fun .

I asked Luna to prepare some breakfast for you to enjoy on the plane , Isolde said with a cheerful smile , not elaborating further .

Joycelyn noticed the logo on the meal box .

It was from the local restaurant she had mentioned was quite good during a meal with Isolde .

Take it , Ellison said and let Joycelyn take it .

Thank you , Mrs.

Grant , Joycelyn said as she let go of Lucys hand , responding very politely .

Grandma said you like this , so she had Luna prepare it early this morning , Ellison explained .

You all go ahead .

I will head back soon .

Isolde had come all the way just to see them off personally .

Joycelyn took the meal box and hugged Isolde .

Although she wanted to avoid drawing attention , Joycelyn couldnt ignore Isoldes kind attention just because she was worried about her identity being exposed .

Ill leave Ellison to you , Isolde whispered in Joycelyns ear .

Yes , I will , Joycelyn replied softly .

After parting from Isolde , Joycelyn held Lucys hand and boarded the plane .

Grandma , were leaving .

Ellisons clear voice rang out as he bid farewell to Isolde .

Mr.

Grant , have a safe trip .

Ill take good care of Mrs.

Grant , so you dont need to worry , Leah , who had been quietly supporting Isolde , said .

Sun , 16 Feb Chapter 129 Although it seemed like a simple farewell , Leah was actually expressing her feelings .

She did it deliberately , saying it ambiguously in front of Joycelyn .

However , Joycelyn didnt take it to heart .

She simply held onto Lucy and prepared to board the plane .

Hey , are you quite familiar with Mrs.

Grant ? Lucy couldnt help but ask again , this time with a bit of curiosity .

I respect her very much , Joycelyn replied with a warm smile .

82 % 1 Seeing that Joycelyn didnt want to explain anything , Lucy didnt press for more details .

Is the woman next to her earlier Mr.

Grants wife ? What makes you say that ? Joycelyn asked , feigning curiosity .

Lucy noticed the genuine curiosity in Joycelyns eyes and eagerly continued , Did you see the way she was looking at Mr.

Grant ? If I put it nicely , its full of admiration .

I noticed that too .

Joycelyn nodded .

Do you think men can pick up on it ? I heard that most men cant distinguish between subtle intentions , but Mr.

Grant isnt just any man .

He should be able to see through it , especially since he didnt even glance her way , Lucy replied .

You think so highly of him ? Joycelyn widened her eyes , very curious about Lucys perspective .

Although he was wearing sunglasses , I could feel that his gaze was cold the whole time , Lucy recalled Ellisons demeanor confidently .

She leaned in closer to Joycelyn , speaking in a low voice that only the two of them could hear , Men with high status and a lot of money either have seen too much or arent interested in women .

Theyre not easy to attract .

Ive dated eight , trust me on this .

At first , Joycelyn found it hard to believe , but after hearing about Lucys experience with eight men , she couldnt help but be convinced .

After all , Lucy was very outstanding , and any man who caught her eye must be exceptional too .

Alright , alright , I believe you .

Joycelyn nodded with a serious expression .

Lets wait until Mr.

Grant boards first , Lucy said , pulling Joycelyn back .

In the workplace , attention to detail was crucial .

Alright , Joycelyn quickly complied , standing aside with Lucy .

They waited for Ellison to board the plane first .

Lucy and Joycelyn stood respectfully to one side , heads bowed , maintaining a formal posture .

When Ellisons imposing presence grew closer , Lucy didnt dare to look up until he passed by her .

She noticed the wedding ring on his finger and then glanced at the ring on Joycelyns left hand .

She blinked several times in realization .

After Ellison boarded the plane , William and the assistants followed closely behind .

Ill take this to Mr.

Grant first .

You wait here for a moment , Joycelyn told Lucy , asking her to sit while she went to deliver the item to Ellison .

Alright , you go take care of your big boss .

Im fine .

Im already grateful that he let me tag along on this flight Lucy suppressed her curiosity and didnt ask more questions .

Joycelyn put down her bag and carried the meal box toward the first class cabin .

Ellison had already removed his sunglasses and mask , revealing his naturally cool and handsome features .

Mr.

Grant , this is the meal box from Mrs.

Grant .

Take it and eat .

Its not for me anyway Ellison took off his suit jacket and threw it on the seat beside him .

Ellisons expression wasnt very good , giving off a cold and distant vibe .

Joycelyn pressed her lips together and glanced at the seat next to her , noting the womens slippers and a bottle of fragrance .

Those were likely prepared for her .

Alright , you rest first , Joycelyn said , not saying much more .

After all , Lucy was already on the plane , and she couldnt ignore her .

Seeing his cold expression and lack of response , Joycelyn left with the meal box .

As she slowly walked to the business class door , she glanced back at Ellison .

His broad , imposing figure and meticulously styled dark hair gave off an air of restrained elegance .

Ellison , unsure if Joycelyn was really leaving , turned his head and met her gaze .

His eyes glanced coldly , filled with deep dissatisfaction , clearly showing he was sulking .

He looked both cold and proud , with a touch of a husbands resentment .

Joycelyn couldnt help but smile and made a small heart gesture towards him .

Humph , Ellison grunted , turning away and pouring himself a glass of wine .

Joycelyn carried the meal box back to business class , where Lucy noticed the box and sat back down next to her .

Mr.

Grant is taking a nap and said he wont eat , so lets have it , Joycelyn said as she opened the meal box .

It was still steaming hot .

Just then , the flight attendant came by with the snack cart .

Ms.

Maynard , these are the snacks and drinks we provide .

Please enjoy , and if you need any service , feel free to call me , the flight attendant said warmly .

Thank you , Joycelyn replied with a smile .

After the flight attendant left , it was just the two of them in the business class .

Lucy couldnt help but ask a question , Joycelyn … I just noticed you and your boss are wearing matching rings .

Is there something going on between you two ? Given Lucys experience with eight relationships , she had a keen sense for these things .
