You Hit My Heart (Joyce and Luther) novel Chapter 113

"Okay, auntie. I got it, I'll be on time."

"I'm sorry to have troubled you, goodbye."

Joyce hung up the phone and looked confused for a moment. She opened her beautiful eyes and let out a breath.

"What? Who was calling." Luther asked, sensing that something was wrong with her, his dark eyes narrowing slightly.

"Oh, it's nothing. It's Charlotte's mother, Cecelia, who asked me to meet her at the Pure Blue Café across from the group this afternoon." Joyce put down the chopsticks in her hand and suddenly felt her appetite gone.

Luther sniffed and frowned, "You don't have to go. I'll take care of it. I will go to the Heath family to explain to them in person."

The Heath family couldn't wait any longer, and now even Cecelia had to step up. How could he let Joyce face all these for him?

"It's okay. I have agreed anyway, so I should go. Besides, it was me who was at fault in the first place." Joyce hurriedly gulped a few mouthfuls of food, her mind was slightly confused, and she could no longer taste it. What would come just would come, and she could not hide from it even if she wanted to.

The thought of being chastised by a woman as gentle and atmospheric as Cecelia made her feel a little down.

Luther was silent, his mind heavy.

"Have you all finished? I'll go pay the bill." Joyce stood up and took out her phone for the bill.

Luther suddenly took her hand and said seriously, "If she gives you a hard time, call me."

Joyce was stunned for a moment, then gently brushed his hand away and smiled openly, "You're overthinking it. She won’t and I can handle it."

That was quite something to Juanita but since the atmosphere was not quite right, she did not say anything.

After settling the bill, the three of them took Luther's car back to the group headquarters.

Joyce and Juanita returned to the project team together just in time.
