Ellison And Joycelyn: A Love Beyond The Rules Novel

No Ads Chapter 261 Chapter 261 Ellison narrowed his eyes , watching his wife smile mischievously .

He couldnt help but smile faintly as well .

Just from a casual listen , he could tell there was something unusual about this conversation .

No wonder those two had been whispering to each other in secret these past two days .

He had thought they were just chatting about typical girl stuff .

Joycelyn noticed the deep look in Ellisons eyes .

She shot him a glance , signaling him to hurry up and take care of the matter .

Ellison cleared his throat twice and spoke in a low voice .

Sandra was raised by my grandmother since she was little .

I see her as my own sister , If I ever hear words like outsider or anything else from you again , get out of this household .

That was the final warning .

Intimidated by Ellisons authority , Tanya gave Sandra a half hearted apology and stormed off .

Sibyl didnt linger either .

With an unpleasant expression , she also left .

At the doorway , a slightly older girl appeared .

First , she was shoved aside by the furious Tanya .

Then , when Sibyl passed by , she gave her a sharp glare .

Whats wrong with Tanya ? the girl asked timidly , following behind Sibyl .

Joycelyn couldnt be bothered to care .

People always resorted to conflict with each other .

The Grant family was too big , with tangled relationships everywhere .

What they had witnessed today was just a small glimpse of Sandra being bullied .

This could have happened many times behind closed doors .

Arent you good at fighting? Why didnt you fight back ? Ellison walked up to Joycelyn , looking down at Sandra , whose eyes were brimming with tears .

He lightly flicked her forehead with his finger .

Ive got your back .

Whats there to be afraid of ? Joycelyn replied , Shes a Grant .

I am your wife , and she still dares to give me that attitude .

Let alone Sandra .

The people in your family are just wolves in sheeps clothing .

Day after day , the drama never ended .

Sandra threw herself into Joycelyns arms, wiping her tears .

Get her ten of the Jellycat .

Right now , Joycelyn ordered Ellison , pointing at the plush toy that had rolled outside the villa .

Yes .

Ill have them delivered immediately .

Ellison didnt dare to say more .

Its okay now .

Ive got your back , Joycelyn comforted Sandra , patting her back like soothing a child .

Did you notice anything interesting at home earlier ? She deliberately changed the topic .

Sandra said , Oh , yeah ! Lily and Sibyl met in private .

They were talking about something secretive .

I think Sibyl got caught doing something shady , and Lily got some dirt on her .

Then somehow , it turned into a standoff where they both ended up holding secrets over each other .

Something to do with Mr.

Jamir Grant and the housekeeper .

Sandra quickly perked up at the gossip , her sadness forgotten .

Neither Joycelyn nor Sandra had expected him to overhear .

Well ? Even Im being left out now ? Ellison spun his phone in his fingers .

His expression was serious , but his curiosity was obvious .

He was eager to join in .

Its … not something thats easy to say out loud .

Joycelyn pursed her lips , looking a little guilty .

Oh , Im gonna go wash my face real quick .

Sandra instantly found an excuse , making a quick escape .

She thought , Good luck , Joycelyn ! If this goes south , youre on your own ! Joycelyn thought , That brat ! Theres nothing .

Can I skip lunch today ? I want some peace and quiet .

Joycelyn tried to slip away , but Ellison reached out and caught her by the neck .

Then , he stepped closer .

Mrs.

Grant , are you keeping secrets from me now ? Joycelyn replied , No.

Were a team .

Then why are you hiding things from me ? What , thinking of going solo ? Ellison pulled Joycelyn into his arms , clearly not letting go until she spilled the truth .

She struggled for a while but couldnt shake him off .

Finally , she gave in .

Fine ! This mornings events didnt sit right with me , so I paid extra attention .

Turns out Sibyl and Reuben seem to have something going on .

Joycelyn whispered , afraid of being overheard .

Ellison frowned and said , I never noticed that before .

I only know that her so called sister was a child she had when she was younger and rebellious .

She raised her under her mothers name .

Whoa , her backstory is wild ! Joycelyn was shocked again .

Ellison replied , Its not well known .

Shes got a strong personality , and not many dare bring it up .

Then … Joycelyn blinked rapidly , obviously hinting at something .

If she suffered a setback in front of you , then theres definitely something fishy going on .

Ellison raised a brow , looking more excited than Joycelyn .

Why do I feel like youre more excited about this than I am ? Joycelyn eyed him up and down .

If this turns out to be true , you can expect your assets to gain a few extra zeros .

Ellison ruffled her hair and kissed her cheek .

At this point , Joycelyn had no idea what this scheming man was planning .

She didnt think too much about it .

By lunchtime , the news that Richard was staying for the meal caused a huge stir in the Grant family .

After all , he was a billionaire from overseas .

If anyone managed to build a connection with him , it would be monumental .
