You Hit My Heart (Joyce and Luther) novel Chapter 1667

Chapter 1667: Desire for Victory

Luther left Felix's place and returned home. By the time he got back, it was already 2:00 in the morning. He pushed open the door and walked in. Joyce was already asleep, curled up in bed. He walked over, took off his clothes, and held her in his arms, falling asleep with her. Joyce woke up drowsily and asked, "You're back." "Mm." He lightly kissed her. "Sorry to disturb you. Go back to sleep." He turned off the night light, and with her in his arms, she felt especially at ease. Soon he fell asleep too. They slept until almost 9:00 in the morning.

When Joyce woke up, she exclaimed, "Oh my god, it's so late. Today is Andres' kindergarten open house, and I filled out the form beforehand to attend. It starts at ten o'clock. It's almost nine now!" Luther got up with her and hugged her. "It's okay, we'll make it. I'll go with you." Joyce looked back at him and glared, "Of course you're going. This is a formal open house, and other parents will be there. We can't let Andres down." "Okay." Luther picked her up from the bed and carried her into the bathroom. "Yes, ma'am. Hurry up and wash up."

After washing up, Joyce picked out a simple suit to wear. She was about to change when Luther stopped her and said, "Don't wear this one, wear this one." Joyce saw the clothes that Luther brought out and was stunned. It was casual wear from a military uniform, which was much more casual and relaxed than a formal military uniform, but it still had shoulder badges. She often saw her mother Cecelia wearing it. Before coming to Khebury, Cecelia had also prepared a few sets for her and brought them over, but she thought she wouldn't need them.

"Wear this one? Why?" Joyce couldn't understand.

"Since it's the first time we're going to the open house, we have to make a good impression for Andres. You wearing a military uniform will make sure no one bullies him in the future." Luther handed her the clothes. "Hurry up and change. There's no time to hesitate. We're almost late."

Joyce hesitated, feeling a bit embarrassed, but under Luther's urging, she didn't have time to think too much and changed into the casual military uniform. Luther chose a blue suit, looking handsome and unparalleled.

They arrived in the living room, and Mr. Arnold saw Joyce in the military uniform for the first time. His eyes lit up, full of admiration. He said, "Mr. Warner, Mrs. Warner, Aaron has already taken the young master to Dewey Noble Kindergarten. Please have breakfast."

Luther looked at the time, pulled Joyce to sit down, and said, "Have a little something to eat. We'll make it." "Mm." Joyce drank a glass of milk, ate some croissants, and had a few bites of corn salad. Luther had a bowl of porridge.

They left the Warner residence and Luther drove them to Dewey Noble Kindergarten. On the way, Joyce asked, "How's Felix doing after last night?" Luther shrugged, "Ha, he's troubled by love, and he brought it on himself."

"Why do you sound so schadenfreude? He's your friend after all," Joyce scolded him.

"Women who want to marry him are lining up. In the past, he's broken many girls' hearts. He's always just playing around and never serious with anyone. I never thought he would fall for Vicki in the end. It serves him right. If you eat too much sweet, you'll want something spicy eventually, but he never expected to get burned himself," Luther shook his head helplessly. He had told Felix to be more restrained.

When Felix was determined to pursue Vicki, Luther had advised him not to provoke her easily. But he didn't listen, so he only had himself to blame. Taming the wildest horse required a painful price.

"Oh. They've been together for four years, right?" Joyce was surprised at first, but then she thought it made sense. She only learned about it after returning to Khebury.

"Why haven't they gotten married yet? Is there pressure from the Saunders family?" Joyce asked.

Luther shook his head. "It's Vicki who doesn't want to get married. Felix has been begging her to marry him for two or three years now, but Vicki just won't agree."

"Oh." Joyce was initially surprised, but after thinking about it, it was in line with Vicki's personality. She couldn't interfere in other people's relationships. Only the individuals involved knew their own feelings and reasons.

"When should I go see Vicki and ask about her situation?" Joyce looked outthe window. The sunlight was perfect, and the scenery was flying by.

"Not for now," Luther suddenly said.

"Why?" Joyce was puzzled.

In fact, Luther didn't want to rush into things. Vicki had a certain connection with Christian, and this matter was also related to Athena. He wanted to wait a little longer, until he had a better understanding of the situation.
