Ellison And Joycelyn: A Love Beyond The Rules Novel

No Ads Chapter 43 Chapter 43 As expected , the interests of straight men are exactly as the internet describes .

Joycelyn was about to place the order but was unsure how to fill in the delivery address .

On top of that , buying such intimate clothing made her nervous about it being discovered .

She felt utterly embarrassed .

Joycelyn lay on the bed , rolling around with her phone , building up the courage .

After a while , her face flushed red , and with a deep breath , she squeezed her eyes shut and clicked send .

She needed a safe delivery address .

When Ellison came out of the shower , he saw the message and sent her an address .

Joycelyn , her hands trembling , copied it and finalized the order .

In one swift motion , she hid the phone under the blanket .

As soon as she set it down , two notification sounds pinged .

Her face went even redder as she pulled out the phone to check the messages .

Ellison : [ Did you buy it ? ] Joycelyn bit her lip in embarrassment and didnt respond for a long time .

Ellison : [ Already asleep ? ] Joycelyn could practically picture his calm , collected expression as he asked .

She felt mortified , wishing she could disappear , but there he was , serious and direct , asking like it was any normal conversation .

If it werent for the pictures hed sent , she mightve thought he was asking about something important .

She still didnt reply , and Ellison sent another message : [ If you dont reply , Im coming to find you .

] Panicking , Joycelyn quickly typed back : [ I bought it , and Im going to bed .

Goodnight … ] Clearly , she was avoiding him .

Ellison smiled slightly , his features still holding back some restrained energy : [Goodnight .

] With a sigh of relief , Joycelyn locked her phone and buried herself under the covers .

This was so embarrassing ; just thinking about it made her feel like her entire body was on fire .

She hoped two days wouldnt come too quickly .

The next afternoon , Joycelyn saw the delivery being brought to her door by the property staff .

She rushed home as soon as work was done , hiding the package in her bag .

When she got to her room and opened it , she found the black lace , sexy slip that looked almost like sheer fabric barely there .

Chapter 4 It was her first time seeing such provocative lingerie , and her face immediately turned crimson .

Just holding it , she felt like her blood was boiling .

She quickly washed her lingerie and hung it up to dry in her room .

To distract herself , Joycelyn pretended to be busy , event cleaning the toilet twice .

Once she finished and pushed the thought to the back of her mind , she decided to order some flowers for Ellison and , after some consideration , bought a birthday gift .

She changed into some fresh clothes , searched for an address , put on a hat and sunglasses , then drove her repaired little car to the luxury store .

She planned to buy a Rolex for Ellison using the money hed given her .

The Rolex boutique had its own parking lot .

Joycelyn didnt even notice the white Rolls Royce parked next to her , from which a rich young lady stepped out .

When she saw Joycelyns car , her eyes were full of disdain .

Joycelyn wasnt paying attention to that , though ; all she cared about was getting Ellison a decent birthday gift .

It was her first time in a luxury store , and she felt somewhat out of place .

When the enthusiastic sales assistant approached , Joycelyn felt shy .

She pulled out a picture of the watch she wanted and showed it to the saleswoman , asking if they had it The young saleswoman looked at Joycelyn with some surprise but still led her to the counter .

She let Joycelyn look at the watch through the glass , without saying much else .

Joycelyn checked the watch against the picture shed studied .

It was exactly the one she wanted .

Just as Joycelyn was thinking of asking the sales assistant to wrap it up , a distant looking female staff member glanced toward the door and immediately stepped forward to greet someone .

Almost all the salespeople in the store politely greeted the young woman who had just entered .

It was the same woman who had gotten out of the white Rolls Royce earlier .

Joycelyn glanced over her shoulder , noticing that , unlike her own experience of being ignored earlier , this woman was receiving full attention .

The woman in the white dress was getting VIP treatment .

Ms.

Wilson , welcome , the store manager personally came out to greet her .

Joycelyn wasnt suited for this kind of high society scene .

She just wanted her sales assistant to pack up the watch so she could head to the counter to pay .

A sharp voice suddenly came from behind her .

Miss , if you cant afford it , dont block the way .

Joycelyn turned around and saw the young lady from the Rolls Royce , who looked down on her with utter disdain .

Rie , 11 Feb M Chapter 43 There was an air of arrogance about her , as though Joycelyns presence was an insult to her .

51 % ) Joycelyn looked at the lady , who was wearing a designer Chanel dress , her posture elegant and haughty , exuding an icy air .

Joycelyn felt like shed seen her before .

Joycelyn didnt want to stay any longer .

She walked over to a newer sales assistant , someone who seemed less involved in the power dynamics , and said , Please wrap this up for me .

Ill go pay .

She pointed to the black , business style mechanical watch she had chosen .

She just wanted to finish the purchase and leave as quickly as possible .

The atmosphere here was really uncomfortable for her .

Ruby , still with a smirk , added .

That watch costs more than your little junk car .

Can you even afford it ? Her tone was dripping with mockery .

Joycelyn simply looked at her and then at the watch being placed in front of her .

It was over a million dollars .

No wonder they were looking down on her .

But Joycelyn didnt care .

There were plenty of rich people in the world , as shed seen with Ellison .

Isnt it all just a Rolex ? Its just for telling the time .

We can buy our own , no conflict there , Joycelyn said , pulling out her phone to pay .

The people around her were watching , obviously thinking she couldnt afford it .

Do you think your taste can compare to mine ? Ruby continued , her arms crossed , eyeing Joycelyns plain outfit with disdain .

Im sure your presence here just ruins the vibe .

Joycelyn , always a calm person , was growing increasingly irritated but reminded herself to ignore it .

The saleswoman had already taken the watch out for Joycelyn to check , ready to process the payment .

This watch costs 90 thousand dollars , the sales assistant said softly Thats fine .

Ill take it , Joycelyn responded without hesitation .

Kuby .

by , however , wouldnt let up .

Wow , youre really going all out .

Buying your boyfriend such an expensive watch , while youre driving that cheap car .

Im sure you didnt get that money in any respectable way , Ruby sneered Rubys tone was dripping with sarcasm as she subtly implied that Joycelyn had earned the money by selling her body .

I see youre not wearing a wedding ring , so I guess youre not married .

Giving such an expensive gift to your boyfriend ? Sounds a bit like youre paying him , dont you think ? Joycelyn raised her hand , the one with the ring , and casually tucked her hair behind her car And honestly , I dont really like that watch .

But if you do , then enjoy it .

Joycelyn added , her eyes gleaming with a quiet , icy smile .
