Vicki paused again, her mind filled with confusion. Ever since Felix woke up, she felt that something was off about him. She couldn't quite put her finger on it. One moment he would ask her to leave, and the next he would ask her to stay.
Now he was asking her these strange questions.
"Why are you asking these things? Since you're injured, shouldn't you rest properly? Can't you stop being so difficult?" Vicki furrowed her brow, speaking in her usual straightforward style.
"Difficult?" Felix thought he misheard, surprised that she considered him to be joking around. "Can't I ask?"
Vicki's brow furrowed even deeper. "I used to like him. I made it clear that day. So what?"
Felix's heart sank. She openly admitted that she liked Rayan, which hurt him deeply. What was he to her? Looking back, every time they were together, it seemed like they were just engaging in physical intimacy. There was no dating or love. Even their marriage was him seizing an opportunity to marry her and she returned the ring he bought for her. The child was something he wanted, and she seemed to have no emotional attachment to the baby, almost taking both of them down together.
Felix opened his mouth to say something, but all the words escaped him.
"Just go." His voice was cold, tinged with heartache.
"Fine, I'll come back tonight." Vicki didn't suspect anything and turned to leave.
Felix was once again infuriated. Couldn't she see that he was angry?
As she pushed open the door, Luther and Joyce happened to arrive at the entrance. Seeing Vicki open the door, Joyce was the first to ask, "Vicki, I heard Mr. Saunders woke up. How is he? Is he okay?"
Vicki replied, "The doctor said he's fine and can be discharged the day after tomorrow."
"That's good to hear." Joyce breathed a sigh of relief.
Felix overheard their conversation and muttered to himself. Even Joyce knew to ask if he was okay. That heartless woman, she almost drove him to his death.
"Mr. Warner, thank you for your help this time," Vicki expressed her gratitude.
"You're being too polite. You've done more for us," Luther replied with a slight smile.
Joyce saw Vicki seemingly about to leave and asked, "Are you leaving now?"
"Yeah. Felix told me to go back first, and I still have many things to take care of." Vicki responded.
Felix, standing not far away, felt even more exasperated. How couldn't she see that he was angry?
At that moment, Luther had already entered the hospital room and sat down next to the bed.
Joyce glanced at Felix in the distance, then looked at Vicki, feeling that something was amiss between the two of them.
So she took hold of Vicki's arm and said, "Don't leave just yet. Since you're here, let me take you for a prenatal check-up. I don't think you've had one. I'm familiar with the doctors here, and it won't take long. It's better to be cautious during the first three months, especially after the suffering and hardships you've been through recently and being busy with the Saunders family affairs. You shouldn't neglect your own health. Come with me for the examination."

The readers' comments on the novel: Wrong marriage and sweet love (Joyce and Luther)
If this is the ending of this story the story then I wish I hadn’t started reading it doesn’t even end right has not closure. To bad these writers don’t put much into their endings....
When will the new chapters come I can't wait any longer...
Very strange ending, is Joyce pregnant again or does she still have remnants of the devil with her. Christian should have apologized and made up with Luther and Felix. Too much violence and twists and turns, once settled, everyone should be happy and healthy....
Omg… can’t you just let Luther and Joyce live in peace with their children….another controversy doesn’t add to the story....
Not again, ugh … just get rid of this disgusting despicable woman...
Hopefully the underground bio lab East523will be found soon and Luther will make a full recovery, Lily will be reunited with the family and all will be good. Otherwise this will be a very disappointing story....
Please don’t make more trouble for Joyce and Luther, they need to have their children and be happy...
Looking forward to Joyce shooting Otis where it will hurt him the most and end his disgusting ways with women. He’s a pig, deserves to lose his “unit”....
Just tell him you’re the one that saved him , not the evil woman and find your beautiful love story together. Quit being a wet blanket, too smart for that....
I hate it when the hero and heroine are made out to be fools for the evil people that wish to steal their lives and live. Hopefully Charlotte is found out quickly and removed. Why should a villain with an illegitimate child reap all the rewards. Terrible....
