Feel the Way You Feel, My Love
Chapter 1323

Caitlin nodded after heaving a sigh.

"No doubt, Joyce is deeply in love with him.But I can assure you they can never be a couple. Undeniably, it's solely her unrequited love for him as he doesn't have any feelings for her. Not to mention, the Rivers family and the Quinn family have been harboring grudges against each other. Hence, even if they're in love with each other, it's impossible for both families to grant their wish to be together. As her mother, my heart wrenched at how she's loving Stanley unconditionally. I'm worried stiff that she'll be doomed one day. Thus, I hope you can win her heart. Even though I know I'm being selfish, but..."

"Mrs. Rivers, I understand."

Justin cut her off and reassured her, "To me, this is not selfishness. After all, I come all the way to J City because of Joyce. Since I've made up my mind to be with her, I have to win her heart by hook or by crook.Mrs. Rivers, don't worry. I'll try my best for sure"

"I'm relieved to hear that. Justin, thank you. Needless to say, it's not easy to do so. You might even feel discouraged halfway through. However, I hope you can be persistent."

Caitlin smiled bitterly.

"Mrs. Rivers, I'll." Justin nodded resolutely.

The next moment, Joyce opened the door of her room and showed up in her overcoat.

Staring at them inquisitively, she asked, "Mom, what did you tell Justin? Why do you seem to be tensed up?"

"Nothing.Ah! Are you ready?' Caitlin shook her head as she changed her topic.

Joyce replied briefly, "Yeah!"

"Since you're ready, you should go out now and come back earlier for dinner.

But of course, I won't mind even if you don't come back tonight? Caitlin responded ambiguously as she pushed them toward the door.

Hearing that, Joyce could not help but roll her eyes.

"Mom, what're you talking about? What do you mean you won't mind even if we're not back tonight? We're not..."

Bang! Even so, her mother closed the door even before she could finish her words.

Joyce twitched her lips, perplexed and at a loss for words.

Mom is acting differently today.

She usually nags non-stop at me whenever I'm going out and only closes the door after ensuring I'm in the elevator.

Good gracious! Did she slam the door on me just now? Shaking her head speechlessly, Joyce turned to look at the man standing alongside her sheepishly.

"Justin, sorry about that. My mom shouldn't have sounded so blunt just now. She has been coaxing me to go on blind dates to get a boyfriend. My goodness! I guess she must be having a wild imagination again and thinking of matchmaking us.I hope you won't take it to heart," she stated in embarrassment.

"I know that, and I don't mind it at all.In fact, I feel Mrs. Rivers is kind of adorable."

With his hands in his pockets as he moved toward the elevator with her, Justin sounded her out.

"Apparently, Mrs. Rivers hopes you can enter into a relationship with someone and settle down soon. That's why she's urging you to attend matchmaking sessions. How about you? Have you ever thought about that?"

"So far, I haven't thought about that. In fact, I don't feel like attending any matchmaking sessions and getting married"

Joyce shook her head, replying nonchalantly. She was being truthful and dared not have the wishful thinking of marrying anyone else for the time being.

"But why?" Justin asked after pressing the button of the elevator.

Joyce cast her eyes down and chuckled.

"No specific reason too. Perhaps, I'm not mentally prepared to get married yet. Anyway, let's drop the subject.Justin, let me bring you to walk around in the park nearby.I think you'll like the environment there." "Okay!"

He smiled cheerfully.

Shortly after, they stepped out of the residential area and hopped into a cab that sped off moments later.

At the same time, Stanley, who was thousands of miles away, received updated news that Joyce had just stepped out of her house with a man.

Ever since she unearthed the truth to him about the exact culprit causing his parents' death and promised to make up for his loss, he had assigned someone to keep an eye on her discreetly.

He wondered how she would compensate him.

Nevertheless, he could not help snorting when he found out she had not done anything so far.

Ever since she was back in her hometown, she either shopped extravagantly or stayed at home all the time.

Pfft!! She's only bluffing me by making empty promises!
