Joyce was sitting in Otis' car. The windows were dark already and with the night falling, there was barely any light in the car.
Otis reclined against his seat, and his body was shrouded in shadow entirely.
The dim light made him look even more gloomy and she had no idea what could be in his mind.
Eugene drove the car very smoothly, and everything seemed to have stopped outside the car. It was extremely quiet, and so quiet that even their breathing had become extraordinarily obvious.
Joyce was sitting upright. She was not shocked by such an eerie atmosphere.
Just as Otis was about to speak…
He received a phone call suddenly.
Joyce could not hear very well, but it should be a female.
Otis instantly sounded different. His voice became gentle and polite. He sounded even a bit obsequious, quite the opposite of the imposing man that he used to be.
"Yes, Mrs. Heath."
"Yes, Mrs. Heath, please don't worry. I'll make sure of it."
Joyce guessed in her heart that the only person who Otis would call "Mrs. Heath" was Cecelia, and since Otis was ranked the second in the military, the only person who could make him so respectful was certainly Cecelia.
It seemed that they had a very strict internal hierarchy, and it would only make sense that Otis, who was married to Charlotte, would just call Cecelia "Mom", but apparently, when they were not at home, Otis still called Cecelia "Mrs. Heath".
When she thought about Cecelia, Joyce was still very impressed. She was gentle and noble, quite the opposite of Charlotte. She always envied Charlotte’s good luck of having such a gentle mother.
Unfortunately, probably Cecelia had been leading a relatively low-profile life and had little contact with the outside world.
She knew nothing about what Otis was like out there.
She thought it might be dangerous in the car, but fortunately, Otis was on the phone the whole time.
In the end nothing had happened.

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....
