It was Casey who called.
Luther's face darkened instantly. Casey knew he was getting married today, so there must be something urgent for her to call him. Something had definitely happened.
He pressed the answer button and asked directly, "What happened?"
Casey said on the phone, "Mr. Warner, there was an incident at the car factory. A warehouse storing gasoline exploded."
"Exploded?!" Luther was stunned. This was not a small matter and would cause a stir in Khebury. If not handled properly, it could have a serious impact on the entire supply chain.
"Was there any casualties?" Luther was the first to ask.
"Only one employee with moderate burns. It is currently believed that when this employee entered the warehouse, it was not to get gasoline. He was simply using a machine to open a can, and his actions may have caused static electricity, leading to a spark. Initially, it was just a small fire, triggering the fire sprinkler system. The employee ran out quickly, and after he left the warehouse, the chain reaction inside the warehouse occurred, and the fire sprinkler heads did not have time to stop it. Thus, the explosion happened. So there were no casualties. However, the warehouse was completely destroyed." Casey explained, "The property damage is estimated to be in the millions, mainly due to the social impact. It has caused some panic in the surrounding areas. Currently, the fire has been controlled and extinguished, and the personnel have been evacuated."
"It's good that there were no casualties." Luther thought for a moment. "Contact the fire department, the police department, and the accident investigation bureau. Have experts form a team to investigate and see if there are any other human factors involved. Provide compensation to the surrounding residents. We must reassure them."
"Yes, Mr. Warner." Casey continued, "Mr. Warner, I was thinking of calling you tomorrow. I didn't want to disturb you. But it seems the media will be coming to interview you early tomorrow morning. So I thought I must inform you in advance. You don't have to come back tonight; I can handle everything."
"Okay." Luther propped his chin with one hand. "Let me think about it. Keep in touch."
With that, he hung up the phone.
At this point, Joyce had already changed into pajamas and come out from the bathroom.
She approached Luther from behind.
"What's wrong? Did something happen? I thought I heard an explosion just now?"
Luther turned around and pulled her close to him.
"The warehouse at the car factory exploded, but thankfully there were no casualties and the losses were not significant. Casey called to give me a heads up. When we return to the city tomorrow, there will definitely be many media and reporters waiting. Let's be prepared. Don't worry, I've already instructed Casey to handle the investigation and the personnel reassurance plan."
Joyce furrowed her brows. "It doesn't seem like a big deal. Accidents happen, but the timing is a bit coincidental."
Luther nodded. "That's what I think too."
"I checked my phone just now and received a text from my mom. They have safely returned home." Joyce said, "I will arrange for Kane and Anderson to leave immediately. Let's not stay here tonight; let's pack up and leave together."
After a mishap, who would have the mood for a honeymoon on the island?

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....
