You Hit My Heart (Joyce and Luther) novel Chapter 1757

Chapter 1757: A Greater Secret

Reese's movement was too sudden, too swift. By the time Felix realized it, it was already too late. He let out a cry of alarm as he watched the dart fly towards Vicki's head.

Although it was just a warning, it would still cause significant harm if it hit. His instinct prompted him to push Vicki away.

At the critical moment...

Vicki suddenly turned around, using one arm to hold back Felix, who was trying to push her away.

And then, no one saw how she did it.

In the instant she turned around, Vicki used her thin lips to tightly clamp down on the dart, swung her head, and her flowing hair followed suit.

The dart was flung to the side, narrowly missing Fox's nose.

Finally, with a "whoosh," the dart embedded itself firmly into a nearby wooden beam, securely lodged there.

The entire process was smooth and flawless, impeccable.

Fox was thoroughly frightened. She let out a loud "bang" and collapsed to the ground, terrified and trembling. Oh god, the dart had just grazed her face, almost ruining the expensive face she worked so hard to maintain every day.

It was too terrifying.

She looked at Vicki as if she were a monster. This woman was too terrifying. Was Vicki even human?

Fox started to cry, tears and mucus streaming down her face. She pretended to be pitiful and defenseless, relying on her support.

"Sir, they... they bullied me. You must stand up for me, wuwu."

Fox sobbed, wiping away her tears and mucus, pretending to be pitiful.

Under normal circumstances, Reese would have comforted her a little. But today, Reese's mind was completely elsewhere.

The Saunders family had an unwritten rule: the strong ruled.

He reprimanded her, "Shut up! You're scared by such a small matter, you're useless and still have the nerve to cry."

Fox was taken aback and quickly stopped crying. She didn't dare to say a word. She couldn't understand what had happened to Reese today. He seemed like a completely different person. She didn't dare to provoke Reese and could only endure silently.

Reese deeply assessed Vicki with a perplexed gaze, his dark eyes revealing a mysterious darkness.

Leaning on his cane, he walked step by step closer.

Until he stood in front of Felix and Vicki.

Felix frowned and instinctively stood in front of Vicki, although he was also amazed by Vicki's skills. He rarely had the chance to witness Vicki's prowess, and he never expected her reactions to be so astoundingly perfect.

He stared at Reese warily. "She is already my wife. Old man, besides the blood flowing through her veins, she has no connection to the Saunders family. Don't hassle her."

Reese furrowed his brow and scolded Felix, "Unfilial son."

He scrutinized Vicki up close.

A rare beauty, tall and slender, possessing the determination and courage of a man, yet not lacking the charm of a woman. The combination of wildness and allure complemented each other, which was why Felix was completely infatuated by her.

"Is she really your wife? You didn't bring her here to deceive us, did you?" Reese sneered.

Felix took out the marriage certificate again and waved it in front of Reese. "It's a done deal. She is already my wife. Old man, stop meddling in my affairs. In this world, besides my mother, no one can interfere with me."
