You Hit My Heart (Joyce and Luther) novel Chapter 381

"Good. I'm going in then."

Joyce returned home and quickly packed up, she didn't have much stuff. The last time she packed some things from the Warner residence, and in addition to that were only a few daily clothes and some documents. She got a total of just two full suitcases this time.

She carried the two boxes downstairs.

Juanita saw Joyce walking out and rushed up to take one of the suitcases over.

"We're taking a cab now, I just looked at the location and it's pretty far from here." Juanita pushed the box to the curb.

"Luckily, there is a subway that goes directly to the group headquarters, so it's quite convenient to go to work." Joyce returned, "Don't worry, I will go to work at the group normally and will not be affected by those things."

As she was saying that, when she looked up, she suddenly saw Luther walking over head-on.

She had no idea if Luther hadn't gone to the group this morning or if he had to go home temporarily.

Joyce was stunned at first, then remembered that he had installed a tracker in her phone, so it wasn't surprising that he knew where she was.

Juanita sensed the awkward atmosphere between the two of them, and she tugged tightly on Joyce's arm.

She really didn't expect that the perfect couple would end up in this situation.

"I’m here to pack my stuff." Joyce took the initiative to speak first, her face calm.

"Hmm." Luther nodded gently, his face still gloomy, and she could not see a thing from his deep black eyes.

"I'm leaving, bye." Joyce pushed the two suitcases in front of her and reached out to hail a cab.

Luther raised his hand to look at his watch and reminded, "New project meeting at 3pm, please be on time."

"Good." Joyce responded.

She would never put off her work for anything.

Luther walked past her and strode away.

Juanita glanced back at Luther's lonely, long back, and couldn't help but stumble at the way the two of them looked and talked, as if they had become simply passersby overnight.

Just talking about work and nothing else.

So unexpected, or embarrassing. She always felt the boss was strange but she could not say exactly.

And Joyce focused solely on getting out that she had no time for anything else.

It took her and Juanita about an hour in a cab to get to Joyce's newly rented apartment.

The apartment was in the middle of nowhere, but it's big and new, and the environment was nice.

"Wow, it's not bad. Eden Apartment, the name sounds like an exclusive apartment for couples." Juanita got out of the car, walked around and exclaimed, "My lease is up next month, why don't I come over here and rent one too? Come and keep you company?"

Joyce laughed, "No, I'm just living here temporarily. Maybe next month I'll move to a closer place. I didn’t have much time to find a house before, and I didn't have a choice. This is a bit far away after all."

"Mm-hmm." Juanita nodded her head while carrying the suitcases upstairs with Joyce.

Joyce's room was on the 14th floor, a single apartment.

There was a total of eight rooms on one floor, all of which were decorated in a uniform Scandinavian style.

The interior of the apartment was simple and freshly decorated, and the kitchen and bathrooms were clean.

"It's a shame they don’t give you enough furniture. You may need to buy some." Juanita said as she looked around.

"It's okay, it's just a month, I'll be working overtime a lot lately. Just have a place to stay and a bed to sleep in."

Joyce was thinking that she wanted to move the new driverless project forward as soon as possible so that she could give the directors an explanation.

She would never forget her promise to Stephanie.
