Meanwhile...
Joyce got up to leave the charity party before the final award ceremony started.
Tonight she did not get anything, but instead she inadvertently bumped into Charlotte. Fortunately, she did not call out Juanita's name at that time, or else her excessive concern would certainly have aroused Charlotte's suspicion.
She searched around the venue and couldn't find Rachel.
Even Luther was nowhere to be seen, and she wondered where he had gone to hide again.
As for Justin, after the auction, he left the venue early and was never seen again.
She was then left alone at a boring charity party.
Joyce really could not stay a moment longer like that and simply decided to leave the party early.
She came to the parking lot.
Unexpectedly, she found that the lights inside Luther's sports car were on.
Earlier, after Luther arrived, he parked his sports car directly next to hers. After meeting Rachel just now, he didn't want to return to the noisy charity party, so he simply waited in the car.
Anyway, if Joyce wanted to leave, she would definitely come for her car.
This way, he could keep track of her movements and returned to Blue Ocean with her.
He had completely lost interest in those people upstairs.
He turned on the interior lights of the car and had a close look at the pendant Rachel gave him.
The pendant Joyce wore as a child was now placed in his hand. He felt he was holding a priceless treasure, and his eyes became very tender.
He especially wanted to know how cute Joyce looked when she was little.
She must be so lovely. Just like Anderson now.
He turned the pendant over and over. Just now in the back garden, the light was too dim, and now he could see clearly that the pendant was shaped like a sheathed dagger with a broad and short blade. The tip of the dagger was completely worn off, so just now he did not recognize the shape.
Moreover, the entire pendant had been blackened throughout and he would need to find a professional to clean it up.
There seemed to be a pattern on it, but the pattern was completely intelligible.
With that in mind, he picked up his cell phone and called Casey.
