You Hit My Heart
Chapter 30

After the banquet.

Luther drove Joyce away with him.

Riveria Haze was located on the outskirts of the city, far from theWarner family's main house, and one had to cross the whole Kheburyto get there.

The Maybach drove onto the highway and sped along.

The red lights on the rear of the car in front of them were alternatelyflashing, like the scarlet eyes of the dark night.

Luther did not say a word and seemed to have something on his mind.Joyce hesitated, but spoke first, "Charlotte and you are engaged.”Luther looked at her sideways.

Joyce paused and looked into his eyes.

“I heard that she even saved your life?" She was quite puzzled for shehad the impression that Charlotte was not the one who would give ahelping hand. Charlotte hadn't studied first aid.

"Hmm." He responded, not wanting to talk much about Charlotte.There was a moment of silence and the atmosphere was somewhatstagnant.

As Joyce was just about to speak, Luther interrupted, "We need todivorce as soon as possible. She has saved my life, I need to make upfor her.”

After saying that, he had some strange feeling in his heart.

In fact, he had a hunch that Joyce was going to file for divorce.

As a man, he wished he had spoken first.

"Okay." Joyce replied with an expressionless face.

Luther looked at her, seeing no reaction from her. He was not feelingwell.

The air pressure in the car seemed to be getting lower and lower,suffocating people to catch their breath.

“Tomorrow we will go through the formalities. Grandma wants you tostay on, so you still live in the Warner family to take care of her. Keepthe divorce a secret from Grandma, don't let her know about it. You canask whatever you want.”

He spoke what he wanted to say at a draught but felt more upset, as ifhe was acting rashly to say so.

“It's OK. Grandma has been good to me and I will do my duty. Moneywon't be needed, it's enough.” She thought of the gentle Cecelia shehad just seen, and her parents whom she had never met, and aninexplicable sadness crossing her heart.

Stephanie gave her the feeling that she was one of the family member,and she will take care of her as if she were her family member.

In this world, she never had anyone she could rely on.

Joyce stopped talking. She seemed to immerse in the solitude. Thisloneliness from the inside out let Luther feel pity.

Luther's heart felt like it was stung by something, but there was notaking back what was said.

He hammered the steering wheel in exasperation.

Suddenly, his expression was awe-inspiring and his black eyescontracted violently.

He looked at the rearview mirror several times and then stepped on thegas pedal, like a sword off the string, to accelerate the car.

Inertia caused Joyce to slam backwards into the seat, hurting her neck.As if sensing danger, she took a deep breath, "What's wrong?"

"There are several cars trailing us." Luther's voice was like cold ice.Joyce looked at the inside rearview mirror and then the right rearviewmirror.

One, two, three, four. She counted silently.

“There are four cars trailing in total.” Joyce looked gloomy, “We arenow in the middle of nowhere, which is the same as being exposed totheir view."

As they spoke, two cars behind them roared furiously to their front."Bang", it was a gunshot, straight at them.

Joyce can actually judge the sound of the gun and the trajectory of thebullet, and she can dodge it.

However, Luther was faster. He did not hesitate for a moment. One ofhis hands wielded the steering wheel to avoid their chasing, and theother one pressed her head to his chest, using his body to protect her.The large caliber bullet was so powerful that it went right through thefront windshield and brushed past the seat.

Knock, knock, knock!

She heard the violent and powerful beating of his heart, and smelledhis distinctive masculine scent. That was good. She was always all byherself, and had never had this kind of warmth and reassurance sinceshe grew up.

In her heart, a trace of other emotions slowly grew.

The criminals became even more violent and shot for more time "bangbang bang".000
