Ellison And Joycelyn A Love Beyond The Rules novel Chapter 188

Chapter 188 

Jovelyn gazed at the message on her phone, her eyes reddening with emotion. 

Suffing a sol, she took a deep breath to calm herself down, but her thoughts grew chantic at the serious, potentially unlawful implications. 

She could hardly believe that such a capable man would prepare for the worst. 

Without hesitation. Joycelyn quickly typed Nothing will happen No matter what, Grandma and I will always be here for you Trust yourself] 

Ellison read the message, his smile lingering on his face for a long time. Though in good spirits, he paused before replying. 

After a brief moment, he responded [Don’t worry, it’s just a possibility. If it ever comes to a divorce, my greatest concern is Grandma. Would you take care of her for me?] 

Joycelyn heart skipped a beat at the sight of the word “divorce.” 

Her reddened eyes quickly filled with tears, blurring her vision. 

An overwhelming wave of tension, unease, and fear took hold, leaving her emotions spiraling out of control. 

Her hand trembled as she held the phone, uncertain of how to respond. 

In the beginning, she had indeed considered divorce, harboring po hope for their relationship and merely going through the motions to satisfy both families. 

But after everything they had experienced together, while Joycelyn had braced herself for the worst, the reality of truly facing this moment left her utterly at a loss. 

She couldn’t remain as nonchalant as she once was. 

Joycelyn sobbed and wiped away her tears 

Hearing the commotion, Selene and Melly, who were eating watermelon, were shocked to see Joycelyn crying so intensely. 

Joycelyn had a gentle nature, but she was also very composed and rarely showed such vulnerability. 

“Joycelyn, darling, what’s wrong?” Selene quickly approached to comfort her. 

Joycelyn locked her phone, set it down, and took a deep breath to steady herself 

“It’s nothing. I’m going to find Mr. Grant,” she said, rising with her phone in hand. Her fair, gentle face bore a hint of resolve. 

“Oh, okay.” Selene was taken aback by Joycelyn’s resolute demeanor. 

Not daring to probe further, she and Melly watched as Joycelyn headed toward the elevator. 

Once she entered the elevator, the two exchanged worried glances. I hardly ever see Joycelyn cry. She just started studying this. Now that this has happened, has she been affected too?” 

Melly swallowed and nodded instinctively. “Maybe.” 

Everyone assumed that Joycelyn was crying because of a problem related to her studies when she went to find Ellison. 

This time, Joycelyn did not hold back. She exited the elevator and walked straight to the CEO’s office.

Even when colleagues in the assistant’s office greeted her, she merely nodded in acknowledgment. 

She reached the door of the CEO’s office and knocked. 

Ellison, still waiting for news, mistook the knock for a work repaj and didn’t respond. 

Joycelyn knocked again, but still didn’t hear any reply from hi 

Without thinking, she turned the doorknob and stepped inside) 

She saw the man standing by the window, his tall and slender figure framed against the backdrop of the city’s most bustling CBD towers. He exuded a majestic, almost emperor–like aura that made him seem more intimidating than ever. 

Joycelyn closed the office door behind her. 

Ellison, hearing the noise, turned his head to glance over. He realized with a start that it was Joycelyn. 

The cheerful girl from just moments ago now wore a solemn expression, her beautiful eyes filled with tears, looking utterly aggrieved. 

Ellison immediately set his phone aside. The smile on his lips faded, and he asked softly, “Why did you come up?” 

Joycelyn/rushed over to him, wrapped her arms around him tightly, buried her face in his chest, and began to cry. 

Ellison’s body tensed slightly, but he couldn’t suppress his smile. He lowered his voice intentionally and asked, “What happened? Why are you crying?” 

Though he knew the answer, he enjoyed the secret satisfaction of asking. 

After waiting for so long without a reply, it turned out she had come looking for him. 

“If there are no problems in our relationship, I will not agree to a divorce,” Joycelyn sobbed, but her voice remained resolute. 

Ellison’s strikingly handsome face became even more serious, and his dark eyes grew more intense. 

“What if something happens to me and it affects you?” he demanded. 

Joycelyn lifted her face, her clear eyes clouded with a thin layer of tears. Her voice choked, sounding soft like a little child’s. “I’m not afraid. As long as you don’t fall for another woman or cheat on me, I won’t divorce you. If you end up in jail, I’ll wait for you to come out.” 

Ellison gently wiped the tears from her face, his voice laced with tenderness. “What if I lose everything? Would you still want
