Wrong marriage and sweet love (Joyce and Luther) novel Chapter 1914

Chapter 1914 "Abuse"

After a brief rest with Alisha, Joyce woke up just in time to see Cecelia preparing dinner for the evening. The whole family gathered around the long table for a sumptuous feast. Various dishes covered the table, including braised shark fin with money belly, tender and juicy Wagyu beef, chicken soup with sea cucumber and scallops, lotus pond moonlight stir-fry, rare black truffle fish roe, matsutake mushrooms, blanched turbot, and crystal-clear desserts, each a delicacy.

"Mom, you definitely surpass Michelin-star chefs," Joyce couldn't help but praise.

"From what I know, your cooking skills are inherited from me," Cecelia boasted unreservedly.

"That's absolutely true," Luther's handsome face was full of smiles as he picked a piece of beef for Alisha, cutting it into small pieces for her convenience. "Is it tasty?"

Alisha's mouth was full, "Mmm. Grandma's beef is the best!"

Anderson pretended to pout, "Ever since my little sister came back, no one cares about me. I didn't have to use chopsticks myself before."

Upon hearing this, Joyce picked up a piece of fish and placed it in Anderson's bowl. "Take your time, watch out for the fish bones. Don't talk while eating."

Rolling his eyes, Anderson retorted, "You're doing this on purpose, trying to shut me up."

Cecelia chuckled and lightly tapped Anderson's head, "You, you're so clever."

Anderson stuck out his tongue and silently continued eating.

Alisha was in a good mood, adapting well to the new environment. She took the initiative, "Grandma, can we live here from now on?"

"Of course!" Cecelia looked at Alisha gently, picking up some matsutake for her. "Eat more, take care of your health, it's easy to get sick when it gets cold."

Cecelia looked at Joyce, "I will stay here for a while. I discussed it with your father. You are at the most critical stage of your pregnancy, and you're carrying twins, making it increasingly inconvenient as your belly grows. So, I've put aside the affairs in the warlord's territory and plan to stay until you give birth."

Alisha looked up, her eyes sparkling, "I heard I will have two little brothers. Is it true?"

"It is true," Anderson added, "You need to prepare yourself. The house will be very noisy in the future. There won't be any more leisurely days like now."

Luther... Alisha was confused, "Why would it be very noisy? I don't think so. Having two little brothers is great, I'll have someone to play with. I can take care of them, too. Brother, when the little brothers are born, let's play the game of taking care of the baby together, okay?"

Anderson was speechless. Playing house games with girls? And having to deal with two soon-to-be-hatched brothers. He suddenly felt that he had been used to peace and quiet before, and he didn't know if he could adapt to the noisy and chaotic scenes at home. The thought of it was quite unsettling.

"What are you thinking? The little brothers are not toys. You have to wait for them to grow a little before you can play with them," Luther furrowed his brows slightly, afraid that his twin sons might be "abused."

"Okay..." Alisha pouted, looking disappointed.

Joyce watched them discuss the future with a smile. Such a heartwarming scene was truly rare.

After dinner, Joyce helped Cecelia tidy up. Cecelia asked, "Shouldn't you go to the hospital? I heard the two children who were kidnapped earlier have been taken to the hospital. Shouldn't you visit them?"

"We should," Joyce nodded, "I've already talked to Luther. I'll help you clean up, and then we'll leave together."

"Don't worry, I'll play with you every day from now on," Anderson promised.

Alisha was extremely happy, bouncing as she turned and ran to the kitchen to find her grandmother.

Joyce, Luther, and Anderson left together.

Aaron drove, taking them to the hospital where Westbrook and Kiki were located.

On the way, Luther asked, "How are the two kids doing?"

"I asked earlier. After Westbrook and Kiki were taken to the hospital, they both fell into a coma. Kiki has already woken up, but Westbrook hasn't," Aaron explained.

Joyce was stunned, "Why? How did they end up in a coma?"

"It's said that Westbrook suffered a severe blow to the head, causing excessive bleeding. After being taken to the hospital, he received several stitches, a brain CT scan, blood transfusion, and protein transfusion. He's still under observation and hasn't woken up yet. Kiki woke up initially, but she passed out on the way to the hospital. It's said that the pressure she endured was too great, and she held on without fainting. After being rescued, her strength gave out. Technically, Kiki is in a deep sleep, and it's not a big problem. The doctor said to let her sleep, and she'll wake up soon. She has woken up now," Aaron explained.

Joyce breathed a sigh of relief, "As long as the children are okay."

She lightly nudged Luther with her elbow, "Whose idea was this? Kidnapping children? Aldis? Can't you find another way? This is causing too much emotional harm to the children."

"How could it be our idea? Of course, it was Athena's request. Aldis had no alternative and had to comply. Originally, Athena's target was only Kiki, and Aldis wouldn't harm Kiki, at most, just scare her a little. But who knew Westbrook would also get involved, making things more complicated."
