Chapter 103 

Joycelyn followed Ellison into the lounge. After waiting for a long time, William came in to report the news, 

“Mr. Grant, Linda’s coffee was thrown in the trash, so it’s hard to gather evidence,” he said. “It might take some time. 

“The staff member from the hospital just replied, confirming that she had an allergic reaction, but it wasn’t because of the coffee. It was because of mangoes. Fortunately, the hospital is next door. Otherwise, if it had been any later, she might have gone into shock.” 

Joycelyn recalled how Linda had forced herself to hold up and even accused her. So, she found it hard to imagine that Linda would go into shock. 

“Then go through all the rubbish and check for DNA, Ellison said. “See if a mango was added to the coffee or if she accidentally ate it somewhere. Or, the problem could be due to her own health. Sitting in a big chair, Ellison’s presence was terrifyingly cold. 

Joycelyn asked William, “What about the surveillance footage. there anything unusual in the footage? 

“The surveillance footage shows nothing unusual,” William reported truthfully. “It’s just that before going on stage, Linda went to the washroom once.” 

Joycelyn had a recollection of this at the time. Ten minutes before heading to the backstage, Linda went to the washroom once. At that time, Joycelyn was carrying her handbag, Linda even took the bag into the restroom. 

“Where’s her handbag?” Joycelyn asked. She wondered if it was during that moment that Linda went in and ate some mango–related food, then carefully timed it, waiting for the symptoms to appear just before taking the stage. 

“I had the doctor search, but nothing related to mango was found. William said. 

Nothing?” Joycelyn had guessed something, but hearing William say this, she instantly felt deflated. 

“I’ll go to the hospital to see her,” Joycelyn said, unable to sit still. She thought, I’m not just going to sit here and do nothing 

Ellison called out to Joycelyn and said, “I’ll get to the bottom of tais. Let’s go back for now.” 

“No, I want to go see her. You don’t have to follow me.” Joycelyn felt that something was off. 

She was determined to get to the bottom of things. 

As soon as she went out, she saw a group of people outside. Everyone was rummaging through trash cans and marking 

items. 

Moreover, many staff members were already investigating, and even the women’s restroom was off–limits 

With such a large–scale operation, Joycelyn believed that Ellison would definitely investigate thoroughly. 

Just as she was about to step out, Ellison followed her and said go with you.” 

“It’s okay,” she said. “I’m fine. I’m just a little suspicious. Have you seen the original speech manuscript? If it wasn’t swapped here, then it must have been swapped at the office.” 

Ellison looked at Joycelyn and said, “We’ve also checked the office. Linda printed the speech manuscript and placed it in her ollice until she went to the venue. It never left her office. We’ve ecked her office, and there’s no original copy of the speech

manuscript.” 

“What the hell?” Joycelyn was so angry that her eyebrows were knitted together. 

68 

I know you suspect Linda, and so do 1,” Ellison said. “But we can act rashly now. She just got out of critical condition. Even if we get the evidence, what if she harms herself? The public opinion would be even more intense.” 

“What should we do then? Do we just wait like fools?” Joycelyn looked at Ellison angrily. 

“Let’s give time for things to develop before making any decisions. Ellison’s lips curved, and his deep blue eyes were filled with deep intentions. 

Looking at his gaze, Joycelyn figured that he must have come up with a solution. 

Ellison walked forward, his voice softening a little as he said, “I just want you to put up with the grievance for a while. The bonus will be doubled. How about that?” 

When Joycelyn heard this, she began to waver. “How much?” 

“Feel free to ask for whatever amount you want. I’m fine with it. Ellison raised his eyebrows slightly. He was no longer as cold and stern as before. 

Suddenly, his tone became so indulgent and affectionate, and Joycelyn couldn’t help but shiver. 

“You tell me first how long I should wait,” she said. ‘T’ll then see how much grievance I have to put up with before I name the amount I want.” 

A day or two,” Ellison said. 

“No problem. I want Rocky to go upstairs and sleep with me from now on. How about that?” Joycelyn took the opportunity to state her condition. 

When Ellison heard this, his expression turned cold right away. He refused immediately, saying, “No way!” 

‘If my wife sleeps with the dog, then who am I supposed to sleep with?” he thought. 

I’m mad then. I turned the tide earlier. How many people admire our company’s technology? You can’t even fulfill such a small request of mine.” Joycelyn immediately became frustrated 

Ellison said in a serious voice, “Change the condition. Anything else is negotiable.” 

Their conversation was not loud, but anyone who could see would notice that the CEO of Grant Group exuded an air of superiority, yet he was very yielding. 

Joycelyn still looked angry. 

At the hospital, Linda received special care. The company also sent a message saying that she performed well, and Ellison gave her a year–end bonus equal to three times her monthly salary. 

In the afternoon, // 

company held a celebratory party and gave everyone half a day off. 

Such an honor was unprecedented.
