Ellison And Joycelyn: A Love Beyond The Rules Novel

Chapter 84 At 3 40 am .

, Joycelyn woke up and quietly slipped out from under the covers , trying not to disturb Ellison as she got out of bed .

He was still fast asleep , and the soft light made his peaceful handsome face even more mesmerizing .

Joycelyn gently pulled the covers hack up to cover him and reached out to stroke his face , smiling happily as she left the bedroom , careful not to wake him .

The moment the door clicked shut behind her , Ellison reached out , feeling the bed beside him .

The sheets were still warm .

but there was no sign of the soft woman who had been lying there .

Shes gone .

Ellison opened his eyes , his strong brows furrowing , and immediately threw off the covers to get out of bed .

Downstairs , Joycelyn had let Rocky outside to do his business .

She was surprised to find that the little guy had already finished and was now waiting patiently for his breakfast .

Rocky , such a good boy ! Already knows how to go potty on his own and waits quietly for mama to feed him .

Joycelyns .

voice was full of sweetness , her tone full of baby talk as she looked at the obedient puppy , radiating maternal love .

The little dog sat beside her , wagging its tail and smiling as it waited for its meal .

Joycelyn was completely melted by the sight of him .

Dont bring me into this .

I dont have a dog son , Ellisons deep voice came from behind her , dripping with displeasure .

The puppy turned its head , seeing Ellisons tall figure approach , and barked immediately .

Ellison narrowed his eyes and glared at the dog .

The little puppy , scared , immediately scurried toward Joycelyn , burying its face in her pajama pants .

Joycelyn , seeing the little dog scared , quickly put the bowl of dog food down and comforted him softly , Dont be afraid , hes a good guy , hes not mean .

Rocky kept burrowing into Joycelyns lap , still trembling.

Seeing his sad little face , Ellison almost wanted to throw him our Unable to resist , Ellison took out his phone and googled how old a dog should be before it can be neutered .

After reading the results , he muttered coldly , You little brat , Ill let you get through a couple more months , and then Ill take you for the operation .

Rocky whimpered and immediately clung to Joycelyns legs .

Joycelyn , with a soft laugh , patted the puppys head and said , Dont worry , well have breakfast first , then Ill make you two eggs for extra nutrition later .

After soothing the puppy .

Joycelyn couldnt help but mutter softly .

Why do you have to get up early to fight with a puppy ? Her voice was light , tinged with a playful pout .

11:56 Fri , Feb 14 66 .

Chapter 84 This only made Ellison more irritable , especially as he watched he puppy eat happily , his eyes like cold daggers The little dog froze for a moment , and its eyes wandered around clearly distracted .

It had stopped eating as happily as before and started shifting closer in Joycelyn .

Joycelyn thought , Tim scared too , Ellison had woken up grumpy like a lion with its for standing on end , and she dared not go against him .

But the atmosphere was so tense that she finally couldnt resist asking , Arent you going for your morning run today ? No , Ellison replied coldly , his voice like ice .

At his words , the puppy trembled , and its wagging tail slowly dropped .

Joycelyn , worried that Ellison might really do something to the little dog , stayed put , squatting by Rocky with her slippers on , her hule feet nervously scraping the floor .

Ellisons gaze from above , watching her awkward movements , almost made him laugh , despite his irritation .

William said Rockys training is going well .

He knows to go potty by himself now , so we wont have to watch him all night anymore .

I have someone come by to clean up after him from now on .

Ah ? Oh .

Joycelyn looked a little stunned for a moment , then nodded obediently .

Ellison , his voice full of disdain, asked , What are you still crouching there for ? Wont he eat by himself ? Oh Joycelyn pouted and stood up slowly .

Rocky, seeing her stand , stopped eating too , tilting his head up and whining a little .

He looked at Joycelyn with big , sad eyes .

Joycelyn also pouted , her brows furrowed , trying to comfort the puppy with her eyes .

The situation seemed like both Ellison and the dog were being wronged , making him look like a villain .

Go wash up , were going to visit grandma for lunch .

Okay .

As she left , Joycelyn couldnt resist turning back and comforting Rocky , Good boy , eat your breakfast … Hearing the affectionate words , Ellisons face showed disbelief , ve never seen anyone feed their dog at six in the morning .

You really spoil him .

My dog has a better life than me , he thought , feeling completely exasperated .

Im worried he might not be used to his new home .

If hes hungry , hell eat , and then go play when hes full , Joycelyn continued to spoil Rocky, giving him another affectionate scratch on the head Im going to shower and disinfect .

Ill make breakfast for you later .

Thank you , Ellison replied , his tone almost laced with subtle resentment .

You go play with him for a while .

Ill go shower and change , Joycelyn said , keenly aware that Ellisons obsessive cleanliness might mean hed throw her out if he saw her spending too much time with the puppy .

Once Joycelyn went upstairs , Ellison fixed his gaze on the white little puppy , his expression darkening .

11:56 Fri , Feb 14 Chapter 84 Rocky looked up at him and then immediately ran to the backyard .

Dogs get cocky with people around , Ellison muttered , finally sing through the puppys tricks .

At least he wouldnt have to worry about waking up to a scenario where he was heating the bed while his wife was feeding the dog before dawn .

Half an hour later , Joycelyn was back downstairs .

After three day of rest , she should have gone back to work today , but since it was Saturday , she could stay home a little longer .

Her wrist marks had faded , so she could go visit Isolde without worrying about making her grandmother worry .

She made a beautiful and delicious breakfast and packed a few soft cakes for Isolde before heading to the hospital around 10 11.111 .

When she arrived at the hospital half an hour later , Ellison happened to run into the attending physician downstairs , so he followed him to the office to check on things .

Grandma had some checks this morning and might not be inthe ward .

You go ahead and wait in the room , Ill join you soon , Ellison instructed Joycelyn .

Joycelyn said , Okay .

Ellison asked , Doy you know where the room is ? Yes , Isoldes the only one on that floor , Joycelyn answered , nodding with the food container in her hands .

Alright , Ellison said , as the elevator arrived , and he and the doctor headed off to review the reports .

Joycelyn went upstairs .

There was no one at the nurses station , probably busy with Isoldes checkup .

She walked to the ward , She carried her things to the ward .

As she entered , she heard footsteps behind her .

Turning , she saw a young , elegant woman in a new Chinese style dress walking toward her .

The woman was graceful and poised , and clearly not one of the hospital staff .

Who are you ? What are you doing here ? Leah , the woman , asked immediately , frowning when she saw Joycelyn .

I … Joycelyn instinctively lifted the lunchbox she was carrying .

Are you the delivery person ? Just drop it and leave .

Isolde doesnt like being disturbed by outsiders , Leah said coldly , directly ushering Joycelyn out with an unfriendly look .

Joycelyn felt the hostility and was confused .
