You Hit My Heart -
Chapter 34
Looking up, Joyce smiled awkwardly, "I ......"
"No ....."
She stammered and finally came up with something to say, "Don't youneed to take off your pants to sleep? Isn't that uncomfortable?" What ashame, it was so close.
Luther glared at her and took a deep breath. Then, he got himselfunder control, and re-buckled his belt.
"Well, forget it if you don't need it. Go to bed and have a good night."Joyce hurriedly lay down in the corner of the bed, and she curled up tosleep as far away from him as possible.
It was really awkward. Her heart was pounding.
She didn't fall asleep until the daybreak.
Aaron arrived in the early hours of the morning and had the Maybachwith the broken glass towed away for repairs. He also drove a Bentley.For safety reasons, he stood outside of the inn on night duty.
Until Luther woke up from his nap.
The early morning sunlight shone in, spilling dappled light and shadowsin the room.
Joyce slowly opened her eyes. In fact, she did not fall asleep, and justtook a nap for a while when it was almost dawn.
She sat up with a terrible headache.
Aaron knocked on the door and brought a change of clothes. Joycehad met Aaron before, and she reached out to take them with a slightnod.
Each washed up briefly.
The two walked out of the room and Joyce checked out of the room.Aaron has been waiting outside for a long time.
Luther glanced askance at Joyce, a tired face with dark circles.
He teased, "Didn't sleep well?"
Joyce looked up and said without a smile, “How can I possibly sleepwell with you around?"
How ambiguous the words were, she didn't even realize it herself.Luther, "......" really didn't know if she can tease, or was anafterthought.
Instead, Aaron lowered his head in embarrassment. He'd better not becurious about his boss's thing.
He handed over a kraft paper bag containing sandwiches, milk coffee,etc., "Luther, you will have a little breakfast first."
Aaron drove the car, and Luther and Joyce sat in the back.
Joyce took out her sandwich and ate it. The bread was fluffy and themeat was fresh and delicate. She was afraid of that the sandwich Aaronbrought was packed from one of the top dim sum restaurants.
Aaron respectfully asked, “Luther, back to the main house first?"
"First to the civil affairs bureau." Joyce mumbled with her mouth stuffedwith breakfast.
Luther looked at her silently. His handsome eyes under his swordbrows seemed not angry.
This woman, on the contrary, was impatient and put him in anunpleasant mood.
“No business first?" Joyce was surprised. Did she say somethingwrong? Wasn't he the one who said yes yesterday?
"To the civil affairs bureau.” said Luther.
“You're not eating? It's delicious." Joyce handed it to him.
Luther did not pick up, coldly said, "No need." There was no need toeat with her for he was already full of anger.
Joyce rolled her eyes for his sarcastic tone. Forgot it.
It was far away and the car took a long time to drive.
Joyce fell asleep with a full stomach, and when she woke up, the carwas already parked in front of the Civil Affairs Bureau.
In the Civil Affairs Bureau.
Came Joyce's surprised voice.
"What?!" Unbelief was written all over her face, "A cooling-off period fordivorce?! What is this?"
The staff explained briefly, "Sorry Miss, it's like this, from January 1 thisyear, a cooling-off period has been added to the divorce procedure. Youneed to apply first, and within thirty days from the date we receive theapplication, either party who does not want to divorce can withdraw theregistration application. When the thirty days expire, both parties needto come in person to apply for the divorce certificate. Failure to show upwill be considered as withdrawal of the application.”
Joyce was stunned, which meant that it would be thirty days before thedivorce was official.
"Well, then, let's apply first." She said helplessly.
"Okay, please show your IDs." The staff said.
Joyce took out her citizenship card.
She saw Luther standing still with his hands in the pockets and a coollook on his face.
She looked at him suspiciously and asked, "Where is your ID
card "000000000000
