You Hit My Heart (Joyce and Luther) novel Chapter 1900

Chapter 1900: No one is going to make it out alive

And at that moment, Luther's phone suddenly rang.

The abrupt ring echoed throughout the empty hall, especially jarring.

Startled, Joyce released Luther's waist abruptly and sat upright.

Instantly, everyone's attention fixated on the phone screen.

A string of gibberish, no normal number displayed, obviously coming through a special channel.

Joyce and Luther glanced at each other, both frowning deeply.

Vicki sneered, "Looks like it's Athena's call."

Luther gave Joyce a deep look.

Joyce nodded lightly, signaling Luther to answer.

Luther put the call on speaker and pressed the answer button.

Athena's hoarse voice came through the phone, "Remember when we went camping? Do you want the place of my first time? Come here, you, Joyce, and Felix, Vicki, all of you. What you owe me, it's time to pay up. Let's settle this. If anyone is missing, I'll kill two children immediately. From now on, every hour, I'll kill someone."

"Hello!" Luther was already furious after listening, he was about to speak, but unfortunately, Athena had already hung up, leaving him no room to negotiate.

Luther fiercely punched the side, cursing under his breath! He didn't want to involve Joyce, but Athena insisted they all be present. This woman could be planning anything.

"I've never touched her," Luther's face filled with disgust, as if even mentioning Athena made him sick.

"I've always believed in you," Joyce gently patted his hand, comforting him.

Vicki shrugged, she couldn't believe what Athena said either. No matter how beautiful Athena was, to Mr. Warner, she was just trash.

"Since she mentioned that we all should go, then let's go," Vicki said nonchalantly, "What is Felix going back for? I'll call him now and have him meet us. But the camping site Athena mentioned? Where exactly is it?"

"Didn't Christian mention that it was the place where Athena fell off a cliff?" Joyce asked.

"Yeah. I know where that is. I'll send the location to everyone now. Then we can consider how to deploy," Luther began sending the location, "Athena won't give us much time. She already said that she'll kill a child every hour. We can't take any chances, no matter who it is."

"But, an hour is not enough time to prepare. Athena is not stupid, she must be fully prepared by now, and we have no preparation at all," Joyce unconsciously pinched her palm with her thumb, using the slight pain to keep herself alert.

Worriedly, Luther looked at Joyce, "I don't care about myself, but you, you're already pregnant, going into danger like this. No, I can't let you go, you stay here, I'll figure it out."

"No, Athena is insane. If I don't go, she will definitely kill children. She's capable of anything. Our child is important, and so are others' children," Joyce shook her head, "I have to go."

Looking at both of them, Vicki said, "Time is running out, I'll contact Christian first to see what help he can provide."

As she spoke, Vicki had received the location Luther sent and forwarded it to Christian and Felix.

After sending it, she called Felix, "Don't come here, go directly to the location I sent you. Athena just called, we have one hour, and she demands all of us to be present."

"I got it. You stay with them and be safe. I'll inform Mr. Ball now and have him on standby," Felix replied.

"Okay," Vicki hung up immediately.
