You Hit My Heart (Joyce and Luther) novel Chapter 286

"I'm sorry I'm late." Luther yanked Joyce up off the floor and heartily gathered her into his side.

He glanced at the grass and saw Joyce's pistol. He picked it up and handed it to Joyce.

The moment Joyce got the gun, out of the corner of her eye, she saw the masked man was about to attack again, and she directly pulled the trigger.

The masked man realized the danger and dodged to avoid it, but was finally a step too late. The bullet scratched through his elbow.

As a last resort, he hid behind a tree.

He took out a flare, lit it, and sent it up into the sky.

"Beep", the white light flashed. In the gray twilight, it looked particularly blinding.

Luther pulled Joyce all the way south, "We better leave now. He just sent a flare, and I'm afraid the other killers will all arrive soon."

"Hmm." Joyce tightened her grip on his hand, feeling more at ease than ever before, "The man with that weird mask, I'm afraid, is the mastermind behind everything. We must catch him. Perhaps, he has got something to do with Grandma's death."

"Karl is on his way with his men, and when we meet up, we'll get rid of the thugs." Luther led Joyce through the jungle, retreating in the direction of the creek.

On the other hand, the masked man hid behind a tree and simply bandaged his elbow that had been grazed by the bullet. Fortunately, he was well trained and he was so agile and swift. If he had been just a little bit slower, his right hand would be ruined.

Unexpectedly, Joyce turned out to be a marksman, and Charlotte did not tell him this, making him misjudge.

The man with the mask was none other than Ricky.

He used to be a special mercenary, and he never made a mistake when he was on the job. This time, he made a series of mistakes, all because he misjudged Joyce's ability. He had planned well and contacted several groups of assassins and former mercenaries through the dark network. First, he kidnapped Georgia, then he kidnapped Joyce to Hill Benjamin and diverted the attention of the police to the vicinity of Phoenix Mountain. In this way, when the opportunity was right, after getting the ransom, he planned to kill Joyce and Georgia at the same time, and then just burn the entire abandoned warehouse, to make the illusion that Georgia was working with others to kidnap Joyce, and finally, they both were exterminated by her accomplices. In this way, the police would never be able to investigate the matter and find any connections in the whole thing with him. The whole thing, from Joyce being whipped by Georgia in the detention center, to Joyce being kidnapped and killed, was all because of Georgia's personal grudge.

But he didn't expect Joyce to escape from his two subordinates first, save Georgia regardless of their past, and finally cripple her two subordinates. In the end, he had to silence them, since only the dead would not talk.

Georgia was also originally from a mercenary background, and this time she killed two of his subordinates.

Right now, Joyce has injured two more. Costing him dearly.

"Brother, help me." The two assassins who were injured by Joyce earlier lay on the ground, moaning in pain. Both of their knees were shot through, and they were afraid they would never be able to stand up in their lives.

A flash of ruthlessness crossed Ricky’s eyes. He pulled out the dagger. "Brush!" He cut it through the throats of the two.

The two killers were instantly killed, their eyes staring at him like copper bells.

"Piece of shit." Ricky kicked them twice in disgust, treating them like garbage, and making sure they were dead. Finally, he wiped his dagger clean.

"Joyce, Luther, since you're all here, why don't you just go to hell together." A bloodthirsty glow burned under his eyes, and his warlike, combative passion was ignited.
