You Hit My Heart
Chapter 1245

She drove fast, and by the time she reached the Hurley base, it hadonly taken her half an hour.

the Hurley base is in a depression with an above-ground entrance thatis quite hidden. The rest of the base is underground.

Joyce is not the first time to see this kind of secret base, once she tookover the Capital land project, the Xia family and Luther shared the land,there is also a secret base above, in the underground very deep. Andthe Hurley base some similar, even deeper than here, she had done afull set of security design.

From the entrance, there is a staircase going down, which is very deepand long.

Arriving at the bottom, there is a circular open space with a fire door infront of it.

As if she knew she was arriving, the fire door opened automaticallywhen she landed.

Joyce looked both ways and walked in.

Inside the space is more than she imagined, looking around, there areseveral hundred square meters. The decoration is very clean, the floorwalls are diatom fireproof paint, the bathroom are integrated overall.The furniture is all gray and white series.

The most crucial thing is that there is a large sand table model of theCapital in the center.

Cecelia was already waiting for Joyce and when she saw her, "Joyce,what happened, I've just heard from Luther. I can probably guesswhat's going on with Otis at the moment."

"Mom. What is he trying to do?"

"Euan actually doesn't have a good relationship with the Xia family.That's why the Xia family has delayed handing over military power. It isto wait for the next democratically elected president to succeed himbefore handing over the military power. The current president, Euan, istoo ambitious. I guess he may have made some kind of agreement withOtis in order to be re-elected himself." Cecelia said.

Joyce frowned, “In exchange, what does Otis get?"

"Recognition of his existing legal status, which would be what Otiswanted. He must have known about Charlotte's fall, so he plannedahead. Or, even earlier he had already prepared this move."

"What do we do with the recognition of Otis’ military authority?" Joycedidn't quite understand the connection.

"Divide and conquer.” Cecelia's eyes were awe-inspiring, “I recall myclose friends as well as the old Xia family, and you will take command,and from now on the warlords will be divided into two and live inpeace."

"Of course, it's only superficially peaceful. Everyone can show up inpublic and go their own way. In reality, sooner or later, there will still bea merger. One side must win for this matter to end.” Cecelia added."Me? I'm in command? I ..." Joyce wanted to say that she had neverbeen in touch with warlord affairs, how could she be in command?Luther came over to me, "You are the heir of the Heath family in nameonly, and in accordance with the usual inheritance system of the Heathfamily, you are the only one who can take command to convince thepeople. You can't do that without our mother alone.”

Luther calls Cecelia "Mom" in a smooth and direct manner.

Joyce opened her lips, could not say anything for a while.

Our mother? Luther's name was so smooth and affectionate that shecouldn't refute it.

At that moment, the gate of the base opened again.

Before the person arrives, the voice arrives first.

"Auntie, I'm back, I got all the things you wanted."

Joyce frowned, this voice, why so familiar? It seems like I've heard itsomewhere before, and it was just now.
