Chapter 109 

To avoid everyone’s conversation about romantic fantasy, Joycelyn buried her head and ate an entire six–inch cake. 

Everyone just assumed that she was still venting her emotions and did not bother her much. 

After all, she had always been very quiet. With the argument today why she was reacting like this to protect herself. 

they figured she must have been really angry, which was 

After the celebration ended, everyone started cleaning up, getting ready to clock off and go shopping 

Suddenly, Selene wrapped her arms around Aurelia and the others, making secret plans in a soft voice. 

At first, no one agreed, but in the end, they were convinced by Selene’s enthusiasm. 

“Alright, we’ll do that,” Selene said. “Let’s go see what that mysterious guy is like and help Joycelyn assess him. It’s her first time in a relationship. What if she gets tricked by a scumbag? 

“I read online that many girls make desperate decisions as they try to escape their families and end up being taken advantage of by scumbags.” Selene’s words were serious and thoughtful. 

Joycelyn was a woman and a colleague who was easy to get along with, so everyone felt quite sorry for her situation. 

“Joycelyn, let’s go together,” Selene said with a smile. “After all, Mr. Grant’s bonus is generous. Let’s go and spend. Didn’t you just move? How about we buy ingredients and go to your house to have a feast? Then, we can check out your partner and see if he’s a good guy? 

As soon as she finished speaking, everyone expectantly looked at Joycely, whose heart skipped a beat the moment she heard that. 

Then, she quickly shook her head and said, “That’s a little inconvenient. He doesn’t really like having outsiders over. Sorry 

about that 

“Ah, I’m not trying to be harsh, but your partner is too much, right?” Selene said, looking concerned. “Why is he being so mysterious and secretive? What does he do for a living? There’s no issue, right?” 

She thought. There are no photos of that guy, and no one is allowed to know more about him. It’s Joycelyn’s first time in a relationship. Plus, she has a stunning look and flawless skin. So, she can be easily taken advantage of by a scumbag 

Aurelia could not help but express her opinion as she cleaned up. “Joycelyn, is your boyfriend… really nice to you?” she said. “Why do I feel that he’s so strict with you? And he’s quite obsessive.” 

Joycelyn thought, Indeed, I got into the relationship too quickly. Everyone is a bit worried. I know that. 

“He’s a really nice guy, just very busy,” she said. “We’ve known each other for a long time. I know his character well. My mom is still in the hospital. 

“Although we’ve cut ties, she’s sick and has no one to look after her, so I have to find her a reliable caregiver. I can’t hang out with you guys. 

Joycelyn came up with a suitable reason to put an end to everyone’s plans of going to her house. 

“Oh, you took a few days off the other day to look after her. Is it very serious?” Aurelia asked again. 

“She’s had it tough over the years, with several illnesses. Her condition is pretty complicated.” With that said, Joycelyn let out

a sigh. 

When it came to her relationship with her mother, she had come to terms with it and moved on.

Because of that, she wanted to find a better caregiver. 

Looking at Joycelyn’s flawless face, Aurelia said worriedly, “When you go to see your mom, will your stepsister and the others make things difficult for you? Do you need us to go with you? 

“I heard that after the fuss Mr. Johnson caused, he has been transferred to a very backward place overseas. Your stepsister’s sugar daddy is gone. What if she takes her frustration out on you later?” 

“Mr. Johnson has been transferred?” Joycelyn said, looking quite surprised. After all, he was a top leader of the subsidiary. 

“Yeah, with such a scandal, it even made it online. Fortunately, the bosses of the company thought that this would affect Grant Group’s reputation, so they suppressed it. By the time I found out, it had already been taken down.” 

“Ah. This was something Joycelyn did not expect. 

She thought, ‘In this age of the internet, information spreads too quickly. Fortunately, it was suppressed. If my situation had also been posted online, the impact would have been huge. 

Selene bit her cake spoon and said with admiration, “Apparently, Mr. Grant stepped in. He has a childhood friend whose entire family monopolizes the news and entertainment industries. The friends of the super–rich are all super–rich. I’m so 

envious. 

Joycelyn knew about this. She thought, It’s Leon. I didn’t expect that rich and spoiled kid to have such a powerful family background. Ellison didn’t ask, yet he still solved the problem for me.” 

Joycelyn’s lips instinctively curved into a smile. 

“Joycelyn, why are you smiling so sweetly?” Selene said. “You’re so cute after you started dating.” 

Selene’s eyes were sharp. She immediately spotted Joycelyn sneaking a smile. 

“I’m not chatting anymore,” Joycelyn said. “I’m going to the hospital. You guys go ahead and have fun shopping.” Joycelyn cleared the table with her colleagues. Then, she packed her handbag. 

She really was going to the hospital, and she would leave after finding a better caregiver. 

These days, caregivers change their level of care depending on who is present, she thought. If they don’t see patients” family members around, they will just go through the motions in looking after patients. I need to do a surprise check and take a look to be sure. 

Aurelia told Joycelyn to leave first, saying, “Alright, we’ll hang out next time then. You go ahead. We’ll clean up here. We haven’t decided where to go.” 

“Okay.” Joycelyn packed her handbag and went downstairs to hail a taxi. 

Ever since she was kidnapped by the two brothers from the Mercer family, she had some fear of her own car and was scared of driving alone. 

She went downstairs and took a taxi to the hospital.
