As early summer gradually arrived, the days became longer.
At six o'clock, the evening sun and the red glow still hung in the sky, casting a beautiful hue over everything.
Room 708 on the seventh floor of Cloud Land.
Joyce arrived early and sat in the private room. The window displayed a stunning sunset, with the lingering rays of sunlight shining upon her, giving her a radiant glow.
She absentmindedly gazed at the passing cars outside the window. The soundproofing of the private room was excellent, and she couldn't hear any noise from the outside world. Her inner peace was astonishing.
She knew that Luther must have received her call and heard her confession, which is why he remained silent for so long.
The situation was far more serious than she had imagined, and she couldn't stay on the sidelines any longer.
Darrin accompanied her tonight, but he didn't enter the private room. Instead, he stayed outside, protecting her. Beforehand, Darrin skillfully inspected all the equipment and corners of the private room to prevent anyone from tracking their movements or eavesdropping.
A few minutes before six o'clock.
The door of the private room was opened from the outside, and Vicki and Felix entered one after another.
With just one glance, Joyce could tell that the atmosphere between them was different from before. The main difference was Felix, whose affectionate gaze couldn't be concealed.
Joyce couldn't help raising an eyebrow. Had something happened between the two of them?
After entering the private room, Felix took the initiative to pull out a chair for Vicki. Unexpectedly, Vicki stepped on the chair leg with one foot and said, "No need, I can do it myself."
With that, Vicki kicked the chair away and sat down.
Felix couldn't help but facepalm at Vicki's bold and heroic demeanor. Vicki was Vicki because she was so unique and different from everyone else.
Joyce smiled and said, "Well, Mr. Saunders, you seem to be in a good mood."
Felix took a seat and wore a smile. "Of course, Vicki and I got married today." He couldn't contain his excitement and had wanted to announce it to the world. He had admired Luther for a long time, and now that he had just gotten married, he naturally wanted to tell Joyce first.
Joyce was momentarily stunned, as she hadn't expected their relationship to progress so quickly. She had heard that they were somewhat ambiguous with each other, but in the blink of an eye, they had even obtained a marriage certificate. It was like lightning speed.
She quickly reacted and smiled. "Oh, congratulations. This is a momentous occasion. Make sure to invite me to the wedding."
Just as Joyce finished speaking, Vicki smoothly continued, "There won't be a wedding. Don't wait for it."
Felix, "..."
He knew it would be like this. He actually wanted a grand wedding. Obviously, Vicki wasn't interested. He had already pushed his luck by getting married today, so he couldn't push it further. When it came to the wedding, they would discuss it slowly when Vicki was in a better mood.
Damn it, weddings are usually something women look forward to, but now he was the one who wanted it.
Felix coughed lightly. "We moved back to the Saunders family. We're not considering a wedding for now. Everyone already knows, so it's fine. Besides, you and Luther didn't have a wedding either. When do you plan to have one?"
Joyce's expression momentarily showed a hint of melancholy. Yes, Luther had always intended to have a wedding. However, he had been busy with the warlord situation and was currently pregnant with twins. The wedding had been postponed time and time again.
A more difficult issue was Luther's poisoning and her daughter whom she had never met.
As she thought about it, her mood grew low, and her heart sank bit by bit.
