You Hit My Heart novel Chapter 139

Ha-ha, great.

Shelly looked at her phone with satisfaction.

She thought to herself, just a picture of the two together didn’t really mean much. If she could help them a little more…

She suddenly thought of something. She was so excited that this time she would absolutely ruin Joyce’s reputation.

Joyce was still standing at the roadside hesitating when her cell phone rang the n-th call.

Luther again!

She just could not leave it, Joyce pressed the answer button.

Unexpectedly, there was no voice on the other end of the phone that she expected to be furious.

"Where are you? Why aren't you answering your phone?"

"Oh, I'm near the group headquarters, I'm almost there. The phone was accidentally put on silent and I didn't hear it."

"Where did you just go?" Luther asked on the other end of the phone.

"I … I took a bus from the convention center to come back by myself. The bus broke down on the way and it took a while." She lied, her face reddened unnaturally, "Do you have anything?"

"Nothing. Just a reminder that the design is due tomorrow. Don't forget it." His voice on the phone was calm and she could not know what was in his mind.

"Oh, I know. There's still some work I need to do, but it won’t take long. I'll be home late today, so tell Grandma not to wait for me."

"Hmm."

Toot-toot.

The person on the other end hung up.

Joyce looked at her phone and sighed in relief. Honestly, her heart was racing and her cheeks were burning when she lied. She really just could not lie.

It's a good thing Luther didn't suspect her. Strange, after a dozen calls she didn't answer, he didn't get mad. It was quite unusual.

Without thinking too much about it, Joyce walked into a roadside cafe and ordered an Americano to take away.
