The phone rang over and over again.
Luther's originally burning eyes slowly cooled down, "What, cheating and afraid of being known by your next man?"
The next man. What an extremely unpleasant way to put it.
Joyce bit her lips tightly, shaking with anger.
Finally, the phone stopped.
Luther also let go of her at the same time, his voice as cold as ice, "Really think I am interested in touching you? Just a little test to see how far your scheming and acting can go."
Joyce was finally released by the man and immediately snatched her phone back.
It's not a big deal for him to get the call from Justin, but he must not see the content of her messages with Karl.
"Are you done? I can go now?" She quickly pulled a quilt and hid on the living room couch, away from him.
"You stay here tonight. If I let you go now, who knows what you are going to do behind my back."
He finished and just walked into the bathroom. Now he needed a cool shower to douse a nameless fire in his heart and body.
Joyce lay down on the couch and quickly sent a message back to Justin.
"Something's up tonight. Call you tomorrow."
Whirling around, she switched to the chat with Karl.
Sure enough, Karl had left her a message.
"As you expected, Charlotte left the military hospital just now. Ricky also left the hotel where he was staying. I'll go over there myself. I've got everything ready, wait for my news."
Joyce replied, "Don't get yourself in danger, be safe."
A few moments later, Karl replied, "Don't worry."
