You Hit My Heart (Joyce and Luther) novel Chapter 1729

Chapter 1729: Royal Background

On her way back to the Warner residence, Joyce suddenly received a phone call from Reuben.

Darrin noticed Joyce's phone ringing as he was driving.

"Reuben? What could he want? What role does the Bryant family play in this whole situation? It's strange. They're also connected to Rohomes. They appeared in Khebury. I don't believe there's no connection between them," Darrin remarked.

Joyce's lips curved slightly. "Since you have doubts, let's see what he wants when he contacts us."

With that, Joyce answered the call.

Reuben's voice sounded somewhat excited. "Joyce, I've seen all the things happening these days in the news. What exactly happened? Why did Luther suddenly... Are you okay?"

The string of concerns caught Joyce off guard.

"Reuben, I don't think our relationship is at the point where we need to confide in each other. Why do you care? What's it to you?" Joyce spoke without much politeness, pursing her lips.

"I'm just worried. Joyce, we must meet. I've chosen the Bryant Mansion's villa as the location. I'll be waiting for you," Reuben said over the phone.

"Didn't you understand what I said? I'm busy. I don't have time to chat with you," Joyce replied, feeling annoyed. She didn't have time to entertain Reuben.

Moreover, she had no idea what Reuben's purpose was in coming to Pascaylia.

"Don't reject me. I have something important to tell you about OGW," Reuben emphasized.

"I think you might have the information you want," Reuben added.

Joyce was on speakerphone.

At this moment, she and Darrin exchanged glances.

Darrin nodded.

Then Joyce agreed, "Fine. Send me the location. I'll come over now."

Shortly after, she hung up the phone.

When Reuben sent the address, Darrin glanced at it and immediately changed direction, heading towards the Bryant family's villa.

Surrounded by beautiful scenery, the villa was hidden among lush trees, creating a tranquil environment, resembling a paradise.

Reuben had been waiting for a while. Grizela stood by his side.

As Joyce and Darrin approached, Grizela tactfully took a few steps back and stood behind Reuben. At the same time, she glanced at Darrin, a touch of displeasure flashing in her eyes.

Darrin returned her gaze with a stare. Each to their own, he hadn't come to see her on purpose, so why would he put on an arrogant face for her to see?

Joyce sat in front of Reuben and got straight to the point.

"Why did you ask me to come? What do you want to say?"

Reuben shrugged. "What's going on with you? Not long ago, you and Luther were fine when we had dinner together. Why did things suddenly become so chaotic? I saw the news, and it doesn't seem like baseless rumors."
