You Hit My Heart (Joyce and Luther) novel Chapter 1902

Chapter 1902: A Man Needs to Be More Cautious

He felt despair in his heart, believing that no one would come to save him. His mother had died, and his father wasn't really his father. In this world, what did he have left? No one liked him; in everyone's eyes, he was nothing. If someone had to die, he might as well be the one, then everyone would be happy.

Athena's expression darkened.

She never expected that such a young boy would know how to sacrifice for others. This wasn't the outcome she wanted to see. She hoped to see them fighting each other, wanting to kill each other.

Suddenly, she was consumed by rage. She kicked Westbrook fiercely in the head. Westbrook couldn't bear it; his small head slammed heavily against the wall, blood flowing instantly.

Athena went mad, "Good. Let you die! Die!"

She stepped forward to kick again. Westbrook, who had already fallen, showed no reaction, lying lifeless on the ground.

Kiki was terrified. Westbrook was lying on top of her, and every time he was kicked, the vibrations made her shiver. Blood dripped from Westbrook's forehead onto her body. She dared not faint, keeping her eyes wide open.

At that moment, Aldis walked in.

Seeing Athena's madness, he frowned. He pulled Athena back forcefully.

"It's not time yet. Don't ruin His Highness's grand plan," Aldis almost warned, his sharp gaze carrying an unknown meaning. He glanced at the child lying on the ground. "I thought your purpose in doing this was to obtain the real blueprint. Don't tell me you have other intentions."

Athena took a deep breath, calming herself down. Yes, she had deceived Aldis, getting him to help her kidnap the child, not really for the blueprint, but for herself.

Now she was in a passive position, almost being choked by Clint, and she couldn't get the support of the Ballard family.

"Aldis, go outside. You're not needed here. When they come in later, you know what to do."

Aldis didn't respond, turning and leaving.

Kiki held onto Westbrook's clothes tightly. He was still alive, just unconscious. She was extremely afraid but dared not make a sound. She pulled Westbrook back with all her strength until they were both huddled in a corner. She bravely kept others away.

Athena sneered at Kiki, "I'll deal with you later."

Even a child dared to resist her. If they weren't still useful, she really wanted to take her anger out on them right now.

Having said that, she left in frustration.

On the other side, Joyce made a call to Cecelia from the car. She felt it was important and needed to inform her mother.

After the call connected, Joyce hesitated before saying, "Mom, Luther and I have something to take care of. I don't have time to explain the details, but you should know that OGW has been a potential threat ever since we returned to Khebury. Today, we have to put an end to this. So, I just wanted to let you know. Don't worry too much, I'll be careful."

Cecelia was silent for a moment and then asked, "I've been counting the days, your belly should be quite big now, right?"

"Yes. It's a bit inconvenient to move, but it's manageable," Joyce didn't hide anything.

"I think you must go. There must be a reason. Anyway, I support you," Cecelia said softly.

"Thank you, Mom. If, and I say if, we get delayed. Anderson is still under Aaron and the warlord's protection. I hope you can look after him," Joyce knew that saying this had a hint of parting to it. But it was something she had to address.

"Joyce, actually..." Cecelia paused, "I'm on my way to Khebury. I'm sorry for not letting you know beforehand. I've been uneasy since Darrin left. I plan to come and take care of you for a while. I'm almost there. You can rest assured, I'll take good care of Anderson."
