You Hit My Heart (Joyce and Luther) novel Chapter 325

She casually took a few chopsticks and stuffed them into her mouth haphazardly.

Although eating, she could not really taste anything. And they actually tasted bland.

Her mind was in complete turmoil, completely unaware of what was going on in the meantime.

Justin's ability to get back on his feet was what she has been hoping for more than two years. And only she knew how much she had paid and how hard her life had been just for it.

It was hard to get him the operation and to get enough money, but because Justin misunderstood her relationship with Luther, he eventually disappeared two years ago.

Looking back on the ups and downs she experienced in the past, she still found it hard to calm down.

And now, once again, she saw him standing up, restored to his former health and handsomeness.

She was happy from the bottom of her heart, and, of sorts, relieved of a heartache.

It's just that today, the matter was unveiled so abruptly in front of her and Luther, leaving her at a loss for words.

Luther sat down in the seat opposite her and took a few bites of his meal. He was distracted and had no appetite.

The dining hall was extremely quiet, so quiet that even the sound of the plates clashing against each other was fully audible.

He got full after a few bites and heaved his chopsticks onto the table.

Finally, unable to hold back the suppressed emotions in his heart, he questioned, "Hill Benjamin that night, what happened between me and you. What is it to you?"

Joyce froze and put down the bowl of soup in her hand.

She understood what he meant, the night of Hill Benjamin, when she was drugged and forced to have sex with him. She just didn't understand why he had to mention it now.

"You had to do save me back then, and I can understand that. Otherwise my life would have been in danger, and I understand and appreciate that you saved me." She replied with a frown.

"Huh." He gave a sarcastic laugh, as if he had heard a joke, "appreciate?"

They had enjoyed themselves so much that night and he still could not forget about it, and for her it's just gratitude?

"You don't have to be psychologically burdened, we're all adults. That night, we can pretend that nothing happened." What else? Joyce wondered what he was angry about? She didn't mind, so what did he mind?

"Bang!"

Luther was really angry, he slapped the table and rose, trying to hold back his anger and not let himself explode.

"As if nothing had happened?" He sneered, "You're afraid Justin will know?!"

That was just right. She gave her first time to Justin and was no longer a virgin when she was with him. Now that Justin was back intact, she certainly didn’t want Justin to know about such things.

Joyce felt that Luther became unbelievable at the mere mention of Justin.

So she also tried to avoid mentioning Justin in front of him.

She felt unable to communicate with him.

She stood up and said coldly, "Whatever you think. I'm done eating, do as you please."

"You will never marry into the Henderson family, not then and not now. The Henderson family will never accept a married woman." He growled, his voice hoarse and unmistakable.

"Luther, this is my own business, it's not for you to bother. You'd better think about when you're going to marry Charlotte!" Joyce was also angry, biting her lower lip to retaliate.

"There is one more thing that I feel the need to mention to you right now."

She said clearly, word by word, "I want to move out. Grandma is no longer alive, and I can't think of any other reason to be under the same roof as you!"
