However, the person in front of him now was Karl.
As far as he knew, with Karl's powerful political background, nobody could help him this time.
More importantly, the person Shelly wanted to hurt was Joyce.
This was something that made him most uncomfortable with.
Just when he thought that Joyce may have been hurt at that time.
His heart seemed to be pressed with a boulder, and he felt depressingly breathless.
And, for some reason, his heart inexplicably ached at the thought of Joyce's near miscarriage.
Why did he feel so heartbroken when it was clearly not his child?
He could not understand.
"Come here."
He reached out, trying to pull Joyce to himself. Perhaps out of guilt, perhaps out of a desire to protect her.
Joyce froze and subconsciously avoided it, hiding directly behind Karl.
This scene deeply stung Luther's eyes.
This damn women wanted the protection of another man.
He was so angry, and his anger had reached his extreme. Blue veins popped up on his tightly clenched fists.
Any onlooker could tell that he was on the verge of an outburst.
Juanita was usually the best at rounding up, but now, even she had no idea how she could deal with the situation.
She looked at Joyce with concern.
"You may go back first. We will stay in touch," Karl told other witnesses.
“Maybe we will even call you. Please cooperate with us when that happens."
