Wrong marriage and sweet love (Joyce and Luther) novel Chapter 1998

Chapter 1998: Opening a New Company

Joyce returned to her study and slumped into the office chair in front of her desk. She was covered in sweat, feeling hot and slightly annoyed, which only made her even hotter.

Originally planning to try on wedding dresses in the afternoon, she had intended to visit JK Intelligence. But now, she had been drained of all her energy and had no desire to move. She would have to work tomorrow. She seriously suspected that he had done this on purpose, finding every possible way to keep her at home.

Oh well.

Joyce opened her computer and decided not to go out today. Instead, she would handle some business online. Alisha's shooting coach, Chinn, would arrive in the evening, so she needed to make arrangements.

She opened her email and browsed through her messages, working for a short while.

Suddenly, the video call icon on her desktop lit up. The caller was none other than Kane.

Joyce hesitated for a moment before answering the call. On the other end of the video call, Kane's young, vibrant face appeared.

"Hey, sis, good afternoon!" Kane's voice was clear and cheerful.

Joyce frowned. "It's the middle of the night over there. Why aren't you sleeping?"

"I can't sleep, I miss you," Kane replied.

"Stop being cheeky. What do you want?" Joyce scolded.

"Sis, you're not being considerate enough. I heard that Wilson and Cullen are almost a month old, and you didn't even inform me! I was planning to ask you in a couple of days, thinking it was your due date. I only found out when Andres told me while we were playing online! I think I might be the last one to know!" Kane complained.

Joyce apologized, feeling genuinely sorry. "I forgot to tell you. I gave birth a month early and was too busy at the time. It completely slipped my mind."

Kane felt even more aggrieved. "You really forgot about me. You left me behind in Mufron! Not cool at all."

Joyce couldn't argue with that. "Sorry about that. What do you want? I'll try to make it up to you."

Kane, relenting, said, "Never mind. Talking about it might hurt our relationship. Sis, you look tired. Is it because of the baby? Taking care of a newborn must be exhausting."

Joyce shook off her fatigue. However, it had nothing to do with taking care of a child. It was mostly due to someone annoying!

"Yeah, a little bit. By the way, how is the situation at JK Intelligence and Mufron now?" she asked.

"With me there, do you really need to worry? The orders keep increasing, and three new technologies have been implemented. The company is thriving. Sis, I'm considering whether to move the headquarters back to Khebury. I don't want to stay here alone. It's so boring! I want to work with you," Kane whined, pouting like a big boy.

Joyce considered it. "I've thought about it, too. Either way, my future will be in Khebury. But do you really not want to inherit the family business?"
