Luther shrugged, "Didn't bring it."
"Why didn't you say so earlier?!" Joyce was not calm. It was obvious that he was the one who wanted a divorce, and they made a trip early in the morning for nothing.
"You didn't ask."
Joyce, "......"
Aaron glanced at them, and did not make a sound. The boss's documents had always been kept by him. Did the boss forget it? Should he remind it? He was struggling whether he should remind his boss or not for a while. Then, he decided to pretend he knew nothing at all.
"Go back to the main house and rest, and get Jamie here." Luther instructed him and left the civil service.
Jamie was the family doctor at the Warner family and came by the last time when Grandma fell down in a faint.
It seemed that they can't divorce today. Joyce was also very tired after a night of tossing and turning.
It was just a matter of going back and catching up on sleep. They had to take a rain check on the application.
The divorce was just delayed.
As graduation approached, Joyce became busy with the school stuff.
Joyce couldn't be bothered with the divorce for a while.
The internship project team of professor Owens' automotive design eventually settled on a studio located inside the R&S Group headquarters.
R&S headquarters has set aside half a floor on the 12th floor for the project team. The team has been busy in the past few days moving machines and organizing various documents.
Joyce, Shelly and a few others were in the design team, while Charlotte was in the sales and promotion team. Shelly ended up in the project team through the Warner family.
They were finally able to leave the school for an internship. Still, these people were in the same place.
Today was the first day of their internship.
Joyce arrived at the R&S headquarters on her own. Although she usually lived in the Warner family, she only let Aaron drove her to the subway entrance. After all, she and Luther were in a relationship that cannot be exposed.
In front of the headquarters building, there was a giant fountain plaza with a spectacular European-style sculpture.
It was her first time to be here. She stood downstairs looking up at this towering building. There were eighty or ninety floors, maybe. The golden glass seamlessly connected each floor. The buiding was so tall as if extended into the clouds. The sunshine was so dazzling that stung people's eyes.
The power of money was surely staggering.
Joyce looked a little out of place from her simple white shirt, black skirt and backpack.
"Look at you. Take off your fancy clothes and you still think you are a princess?"
The piercing, shrill taunt came from behind.
