Wrong marriage and sweet love (Joyce and Luther)

Chapter 20

"Should I congratulate you?" Justin smirked.

The atmosphere was tense.

Joyce was so nervous that she almost forgot to breathe. What could she do to ease the situation?

She also knew that no matter how she explained it, it just would not work. She was afraid that what

happened today would be a painful and fatal blow to Justin. Then all her efforts for a long time, all in

vain.

She struggled for a long time, and finally, she chose to drag Luther away with force, "Please, step

aside."

Meanwhile, she did not forget to turn her head to Justin and say, "Justin, I can explain. You trust me,

you wait here for a moment, and I'll be right back. Don't ever leave!"

Having said that, Joyce dragged Luther around the corner to an unoccupied spot and was just about to

speak.

Luther interrupted coldly, "Last time at the hospital, was it also because of him?"

Joyce froze, and then she remembered the last time she was in the hospital, she blocked his lips with

her lips to stop him from opening his mouth for fear that Justin would find out.

She admitted, "Yes."

"You're his fiancée?" Luther had just heard it all.

He glanced at the diamond ring on Joyce's finger out of the corner of his eye, his expression was awe-

inspiring, and the pupils of his eyes contracted violently.

Joyce noticed his gaze and awkwardly took off the ring and put it in her pocket. She needed to find the

right time to give it back to Justin, but certainly not right now.

"No, no, it's not that ... I ..." Joyce felt wordless for the first time in her life, "None of this is the point, the

point is that we are not really married, right? You should talk to Shelly about our relationship, and I'll

explain to Justin."

"No way, Shelly can't hide her words. She knows, and Grandma will definitely know."

"So ... or you can explain it to Justin." Joyce was really desperate.

In her pleading gaze, there was helplessness, anxiety, and expectation. It stung him deeply.

In his memory, she was lonely, she was stubborn, and she was cool. She had never begged him, and

now she was begging him for another man?

"Huh." Luther sneered. Asking him to explain to Justin? It was a joke.

"Joyce, you are quite something. Do you still say you do not climb the ladder of power and wealth? In

fact, you have already messed around with JAXAH Corporation Bank. Now you can't tell a lie and you

want me to help you?"

"It's not what you think." Joyce just felt burnt out. She held her forehead with one hand, and she felt

exhausted, "We are in a contractual relationship, and you have no right to interfere in my personal

affairs. Don't you? I'll take care of my business with Justin and make sure it doesn't affect Grandma." Property belongs to Nôvel(D)r/ama.Org.

"Don't forget that we had an agreement that you and I were not allowed to have dealings with other

men during our marriage."

She was not just having dealings now. She became the fiancée of another man.

He clenched his fist and the veins on the back of his hand had also popped up when he was

desperately trying to hold back his anger.

"I promised you? Why don't I remember?" Joyce was very surprised. How could she have agreed to

such a condition?

Luther thought about what happened that night. It was true, Joyce did fall asleep in the car, so she

didn't hear.

But that's no reason for her to cuckold him!

He burst out word by word from his teeth, "If you already have someone you can get money from, why

do you still want to approach my grandmother?"

"I ..."

She and Justin's past was not something that could be explained in a few words.

At this point, she was physically and mentally exhausted and unable to explain.

There must be something wrong with her mind to expect that Luther might help her.

"Forget it, think what you like, and explain if you want."

The matter had come to an end, so she simply did not care.

Joyce had no time or patience to fight with Luther again.

Turning around, she rushed back to Justin.

But when she ran back to the garden corridor, she could not find Justin!

"Justin, Justin."

A bad feeling crossed her heart and she called out anxiously, looking around.
