You Hit My Heart novel Chapter 228

Luther hung up the phone with a serious expression. In the end, the phone call from Jacqueline still affected his mood.

Before, Joyce had never defended herself from anything.

At this moment, after thinking about it again and again, for the first time she opened her mouth to defend herself, "Believe it or not, I didn't kill Grandma."

She let out a long sigh, her expression serious and sad, full of despondency and loneliness, "I grew up in an orphanage, with no family. It was lucky for me to meet Grandma who treated me like a family member. I love and respect her and hope she lives long enough, so how could I possibly kill her."

Luther looked at Joyce with slight consternation, he knew her nature. If she did not want to talk about it, he would never force her. So he never asked her about it.

He didn't expect that she would say something like this.

"Don't misunderstand me. I have no intention of defending myself. Grandma is the closest person to you, and I think you have the right to know what really happened at that time. I'm just stating the fact. Believe it or not, it's up to you."

She took her time and told Luther the truth about what had happened since she returned to the Warner family that afternoon, including the strange, threatening call she had received while at the group, including her own vigilance in asking Juanita to help her call the police, including being taken to the police station's second precinct and meeting Karl.

She told Luther all the details.

After hearing this, Luther propped his forehead with one hand and fell into deep thought.

After a short while, he said softly, "I never suspected that you killed Grandma. I know very well that it doesn't make sense."

After listening to Joyce's narrative, he was even more convinced of his judgment that the death of his grandmother was definitely not related to Joyce, and certainly not to Jacqueline, much less Shelly.

For sure, there must be another force that they had not known, manipulating the whole thing behind the scenes.
