You Hit My Heart (Joyce and Luther) novel Chapter 149

The two had a bowl of ravioli at a roadside restaurant and took a taxi to the Warner family.

Mr. Arnold was at home when he came out and opened the door for Joyce and called respectfully, "Ma’am."

"Mr. Arnold, this is my friend from the group. We are here to copy some company information and will leave soon." Joyce said.

"Please come in." Mr. Arnold politely invited Juanita inside, "I'll make some tea."

"Oh, no, don’t worry about that." Juanita waved her hand in a hurry. The Warner family was so big and luxurious, that she couldn't help but stagger a bit.

"It’s my pleasure." Mr. Arnold bent down respectfully.

Joyce entered the house and asked Juanita to take a seat in the living room.

She first came to Stephanie's room to keep her company for a while.

Mr. Arnold came out with brewed tea and placed it in front of Juanita. He looked at her for a long time and couldn't help but ask, "Miss, are you the daughter of Mayor Sanchez of the Capital?"

Juanita was stunned and just picked up the cup of tea with a shake of her hand. The hot tea tipped out and splashed on her hand, "It's hot!"

She hurriedly put down her teacup and shook her hand with great force.

"Does it hurt? I'll get some ice for you." Mr. Arnold said with concern.

"No, no, it's okay, it's fine already." Juanita picked up a tissue and dried the back of her hand. She glanced at Mr. Arnold in a panic, "Sorry, you have the wrong person."

"Oh, it's possible. I'm sorry." Mr. Arnold smiled knowingly. Just looking at her flustered expression, no doubt he was right. In the past, the Warner family and the Capital had a lot of dealings, and Mayor Sanchez often came to the Warner family. This girl looked just like Mayor Sanchez. He had heard that the Capital's mayor's daughter ran away from home to escape a marriage, and it seemed to be her.

The girl in front of him, sweet, kind, and lovely, certainly came from a big family.

Since she didn't want to admit it, he wouldn't reveal it.

Mr. Arnold offered to get Juanita a new cup of tea. "Please enjoy it." He then retired respectfully.

Juanita sighed with relief and patted her heart beating wildly, not expecting to be almost recognized for hiding in Khebury.

At that moment, Joyce came out of Stephanie's room.

She waved at Juanita, "Grandma has gone to bed. You come with me."

"Good." Juanita immediately ran up to the front.

The two of them came together to the study on the second floor.

Joyce took out her laptop, opened it up, and then copied several documents.

When Juanita finished reading it, she was stunned! No wonder Joyce was not at all worried, so she had a good idea!

"Come on! It's about time. We can go back."

Joyce smiled slightly at Juanita.

The two agreed and then returned to R&S Group.

When they returned to the 12th floor, the time was exactly 3:50.

Joyce walked into the conference room, she re-tuned the computer she left on the podium in the morning, connected her mobile USB drive, and transferred the documents to the computer.

The rest of the project team were already sitting in the conference room waiting for her, watching Joyce nervously as they all sweated for her.

Outside the meeting room, Charlotte waited anxiously for Shelly, sending another message to urge her not to come in late for such an important matter. She was just too embarrassed to go in first and now it looked like she was paying extra attention to it.
