You Hit My Heart (Joyce and Luther) novel Chapter 366

Joyce wrapped her arms around herself, her nails sinking deep into her skin as she tried desperately to restrain herself.

Luther noticed something strange about her and came to sit beside her, but when he reached out to wrap his arms around her …

She refused.

She moved to the side, not wanting to get too close to him.

"What's wrong?" Luther frowned, she was fine this morning, what was wrong with her again?

"Unhappy because of the internet comment thing?" He asked tentatively, but she didn't answer. He then asked directly, "I've already taken care of the comments, and it will soon be calmed down. Don't worry, I'll fix it all."

Fix it all? Joyce sneered at the bottom of her heart. His solution was to marry a warlord's daughter to for their power and then keep her by his side as an unseen mistress? To satisfy his personal desires? So he could use her shares, and her abilities?

He could certainly fix it all, huh?

"I'm not upset, you're overthinking it." Joyce perfumed.

"Come here." He insisted on pulling her into his arms, and with a gentle hug, he sat her on his lap, "There is still some time before the banquet begins. No one will come in the room. Shall we do something?"

The words were full of ambiguity.

They were so close. Her perfect face was now just in front him without any gaps.

Her skin was tinged with red, just like the sunset reflected by the snow, and the light from her crystal bright eyes was like that of the moon shooting at a winter river.

The simple white dress with cold tone sapphire perfectly accentuated her cool and lonely temperament, which had a fatal attraction to him.

He couldn't help but bend his head and kissed her lightly on her red lips, and when he saw that she didn't resist, he gradually deepened the kiss.

The more they kissed, the more they found it hard to stop. He even felt his body having reaction, and should the time allow him, he would really want to have her here.

She did not move. No resistance, no expression, her heart was like completely cold, and no matter what he did, he just could not warm her heart up again.

Suddenly, she felt bad in her chest and finally could not resist the vomiting reaction. She violently pushed him away, and bent over to cover her lips for her dry heaving.

He gasped and let go of her, "What's wrong, what's wrong?"

He felt strange inside his heart. She would not really averse to his kiss so much that she wanted to vomit? He had always felt she was a bit strange today, but he did not know what exactly happened. She was unusually calm and restrained, and she seemed more indifferent and detached than usual.

She tried to restrain herself, not wanting him to see the difference for the time being, "It's okay, my stomach is still a little upset, I'll be fine after two more days of medication."

"Let Jamie take a look at you, still not well from your last stomach upset?" He was concerned, gently stroking her back.

"No need." She shook her head.

He lifted her up, helped her tidy up her slightly disheveled collar and long, loose hair, and straightened her sapphire necklace.

Then he raised his hand to look at his watch, it was almost time, then he said softly, "The banquet is about to start, I'll take you there and later introduced you to the guests, who are all political and business celebrities."

Joyce stood up straight away and said back coldly, "I don't need to know these people."

She had made up her mind that she would have to go out to stay in a hotel for the night and move out of his house tomorrow. From now on, she would focus on her work and find the real murderer who killed Stephanie, and everything else would be irrelevant to her. They were not really related to each other, anyway, there was no need for them to meet in the future.

"Good. You don't like this kind of occasion, just deal with it casually." He didn't force it, "Let's go."

Joyce followed Luther and together they walked out of the box and into the Riveria Haze lobby.

The brightly lit up banquet hall had long been set up and there was even a high-class performance group playing melodious music. The sound of violin and piano was reverberating over the hall.
