Chapter 116 

* S. 72% 

While Cecilia was lost in thought looking at the photo she had taken, the car turned the corner and drove away. 

She sent the photo to her best friends to see if they could identify the woman. 

After getting some hints, she remembered to check the license plate. 

“I was too focused on that woman and missed the license plate!” Cecilia smacked her forehead, feeling incredibly frustrated. 

Haddy and Leon each got into their respective cars and left. 

Cecilia wanted to chase after Haddy, but she didn’t have time. She turned off her phone screen and immediately ran to her Porsche, getting into the car. 

Just as she was about to start the engine, she remembered who the woman was 

She was an employee of the Grant Group. 

Previously, she had seen this woman at Ellison’s birthday party, and it seemed that Haddy had even spoken with her. 

To confirm this, Cecilia immediately turned off the engine and sent the photo to Linda. 

As soon as Linda saw the half–covered face of Joycelyn, she recognized her at once. 

It was definitely her. 

The next day, at 10 am. 

Joycelyn was in a good mood and very productive from the start. 

After a while, HR sent a promotion announcement to the company’s general chat. 

Linda was fired, and from then on, Aurelia was the only one in charge. Also, Joycelyn was promoted to team leader of Group 

1 

Even though she had already known about the promotion the day before, Joycelyn was still very happy to see the official 

announcement

As the team leader, her monthly salary increased by a thousand dollars, reaching 3 thousand dollars. 

She had finally earned such a high income. 

Joycelyn smiled broadly. Although 3 thousand dollars might not be much, for someone who had only worked for two years. it was indeed a high salary 

It was something she earned herself, unlike what Ellison had given her. 

It felt solid. 

Joycelyn didn’t forget to send a screenshot of the promotion notice to 

Ellison. 

Joycelyn [Thank you, Mr. Grant. When I get my salary next month. I’ll treat you to something delicious.]

Ellison was busy, but during a break, he glanced at his computer. 

When he saw the message, his stern, handsome face softened a bit. 

A salary of 3 thousand dollars made her smile so sweetly in the emoji. 

Earlier, he had transferred 300 thousand dollars to her, and she probably only bought a watch for herself and didn’t spend 

much else. 

Ellison put down his pen and took a moment to reply: [Congratulations, Mrs. Grant, I’m looking forward to it.] 

Joycelyn sent a giggle with a kiss emoji. 

Ellison found her childish, but kind of cute. 

He scrolled through his emoji collection and found none. Finally, he chose a default smiley face. 

When Joycelyn saw that emoji, her smile instantly disappeared. 

She even felt a bit panicked. 

Joycelyn: [Why did you send that emoji? Are you angry?] 

She didn’t think she had said anything to upset him. She was happy with her 3 thousand dollars salary and never meant to come across as ungrateful. 

Ellison glanced at his phone, seeing the message, and sent back two question marks. 

Joycelyn: [That emoji can mean sarcasm, indifference, or impatience.] 

Ellison: [Got it.] 

Joycelyn: [You don’t have any emojis at all?] 

Ellison: [No, I don’t chat much.] 

Joycelyn tried to hold back her laughter. In her excitement, she forgot that she was talking to the famous and respected CEO. She replied: [Old–fashioned.] 

Ellison’s eyes narrowed sharply when he saw those words. 

He stared at the word “old,” as if trying to burn a hole through it. He wondered if he was really old. 

Annoyed, he decided not to reply. 

“William,” Ellison called William through the intercom. 

William arrived at the CEO’s office door in five seconds. “Mr. Grant, what do you need?” 

“Find me some emojis and send them to my phone. Save them there,” Ellison said, handing his phone to William. “Nothing flashy or old–fashioned” 

William was puzzled, but he still replied, “Okay.” 

As the chief assistant, he was always obedient and efficient.

Chapter 116 

Taking the phone, William saw the latest message with the words “old–fashioned standing out. 

He stifled a laugh, not daring to say anything. 

Seeing that he hadn’t replied for a long time. Joycelyn put down her phone. 

The HR Director had already instructed the assistant to clean up and reorganize Linda’s office. 

While Aurelia was tidying up and preparing to move into the office, the gossip queen Selene started sharing the latest new 

“I heard they found evidence, and Linda has been taken away for investigation. Aurelia, what are you going to do with her things? Throw them away or what?” Selene asked, noticing the HR team just packing Linda’s belongings to the side 

“Just leave them there for now, Aurelia replied, just as she saw a familiar figure emerging from the elevator. 

It was Linda. 

Joycelyn also took a look, thinking. Isn’t she taken away? How is she back so soon? 

Linda not only came back herself but also brought people to help move her things. She still looked arrogant, showing no signs of having been fired. 

“What are you looking at? Linda won’t be at the Grant Group anymore, but she’s still in this industry. You might see her again someday” Cecilia’s cold and proud voice rang out. 

She stood at the back, wearing a work badge from a partner company. 

Dressed in luxury from head to toe, she stepped out of the elevator and her gaze immediately landed on Joycelyn
