Ellison And Joycelyn: A Love Beyond The Rules Novel

Chapter 80 Chapter 80 You dare ? Cedric still spoke arrogantly , convinced that these insurance agents wouldnt do anything to him .

But when he saw a man approach with a cold expression , he was stunned .

The man roughly pried his mouth open and yanked his front tooth out with pliers .

The pain was so intense that tears sprang to his eyes .

Another man immediately seized his throat , leaving him completely unable to make a sound .

The speed was so swift that Cedric didnt have a chance to react .

By the time he realized what had happened , his mouth was filled with blood and sharp , stabbing pain .

His eyes widened in fear .

When he saw Ellisons frigid expression , he felt a tremor deep in his bones .

This man was a devil .

I hear that when a man is castrated at the height of his excitement , he wont feel the pain .

You two should give it a try , Ellison said coldly , cradling Joycelyns head against his chest as he protected her and started to leave , tossing these words that would haunt Cedric and Tristan forever .

The moment Joycelyn heard this , she shuddered and instinctively tightened her grip around Ellison .

Just hearing it made it sound like the ultimate punishment .

I want to go home , Joycelyn murmured , clutching at his shirt .

Okay , well go home now , Ellison replied softly , signaling his bodyguards to handle things quickly and decisively .

William confiscated Cedrics phone and moved ahead to open the door .

Joycelyn didnt want to look at Cedric and Tristans disgusting faces .

Her tears seemed endless , staining Ellisons expensive shirt .

Please , no , please , they begged behind them .

Sir , please , let us go , they whimpered .

But Joycelyn wasnt interested in their pleas .

After everything theyd done to her , it was time for them to experience a taste of their own medicine .

She only wanted to escape and never return .

In the elevator , Joycelyn lay still in Ellisons arms .

His scent was the only thing that gave her a sense of security .

Bringing so many people here , wont it expose your identity ? she asked quietly , her voice muffled against him .

Its fine , Ellison replied , his hand resting on her waist , gently patting her back .

Except for the elevator , the powers off everywhere , no one can see anything .

Ellison didnt sit on the other side of the car .

Instead , he crossed his legs , holding Joycelyn in his lap , allowing her to stay nestled in his arms .

Joycelyn lifted her gaze for a moment and saw that the entire area was dark , not a single light in sight .

Even the Mercer familys lights were off .

1/3 Chapter 80 The darkness was eerie .

Joycelyn trembled slightly , then quickly averted her eyes , burrowing back into Ellisons chest .

At that moment , she was more dependent on Ellison than ever before .

It felt as though only he could provide safety in her world .

After a while , she sniffled and asked , How did you know I was in trouble ? Your distress signal came to my phone , Ellison answered in a soft , calm tone .

I saw the location and came straight away He gently stroked her back , patiently soothing her without any accusations .

His words were full of concern and gentle sorrow .

Because I knew you wouldnt come back to the Mercer family on your own .

I was worried you might be in danger .

His voice was low and quiet , like a stream gently flowing in the forest .

Tears welled up in Joycelyns eyes again .

It seemed that he understood her and cared for her even more than she had imagined .

Thank you , she said , her voice breaking as she pressed her face against his chest .

She didnt know how to repay him , so she clung to him tightly , staying close to him .

Ellison wrapped her even more securely in his arms , his voice tender as he asked , Do you want to go to the hospital ? No , Joycelyn whispered , shaking her head .

I just want to go home .

Okay , Ellison replied , nodding and telling William to drive them home .

After they left , the Mercer family building became the stage for a gruesome operation .

-The bodyguards remained silent as they gave Cedric and Tristan stimulant drugs .

Once the effects kicked in , they were pinned to the ground by four bodyguards , and the lead surgeon performed the operation , removing their testicles .

After the procedure , Cedric managed to crawl outside , covered in blood , and begged for help .

His neighbors rushed him to the hospital .

Even when the police arrived , they dismissed Cedric and Tristans explanations , labeling it as a drug induced incident where the two men had harmed each other .

No matter how Cedric and Tristan tried to protest , their pleas were rejected .

Cedric and Tristan were completely ruined .

These were the events that Joycelyn learned of later .

Back home , in a safe environment , Joycelyns tense emotions finally began to ease .

I heard someone paid them to harm me , she said , keeping her head lowered , looking uneasy .

She seemed physically fine , but the trauma from the danger had triggered some post stress responses .

For example , when Ellison tried to help her undress to prepare for a bath , she immediately stopped him , saying , Dont touch me .

You dont need to apologize .

Its my fault for not protecting you properly .

Joycelyn froze , staring at him in confusion .

Her throat tightened , but the words wouldnt come out .

It should have been her apologizing to him , for getting him worried and causing him trouble .

Yet he was apologizing to her .

Ellisons gaze deepened , his eyes soft like he was looking at something precious that he had almost lost .

I really wanted to deal with those two scumbags myself earlier , Ellison said slowly , his voice laced with pain .

But I didnt want to scare you .

His words struck Joycelyn hard .

Ellison , I think … I really like you , Joycelyn whispered , her lips trembling as tears flowed down her face .
