After the auction hammer fell…
Joyce felt so relieved to stop the two of them from going crazy at the charity party.
She sat down smoothly in the seat next to Luther and gently patted her chest to smooth her breath.
She also heard all the chatter around her.
To be honest, she didn't expect that Luther would easily give up. With his financial power, it's not a matter of price.
She simply didn’t want them to make a scene with their bidding contest.
She glanced obliquely at Luther. He really was not what he used to be. If it were the old days, he would not have allowed such a thing to happen, and even less willing to lose to Justin easily.
So, she was not wrong and he indeed just gave way to Justin.
At that moment, Justin, who was sitting in the front row, turned around coldly and looked directly at Luther.
When their eyes met, an inexplicable electricity was seen between them.
Suddenly, Justin got up, picked up the wine in front of him, and walked straight to Luther.
People around, whimpering and holding their breath, were wondering what would happen next, and everyone was both expectant and nervous.
Luther gently wrinkled his eyebrows. He deliberately avoided Justin every time, and never wanted to have a head-on confrontation with him.
It was his fault that Joyce fell off the cliff and he had been suffering from guilt. He also understood Justin's obsession and madness.
Now that he had found Joyce, he felt slightly better.
It was obvious that Justin must not have noticed the connection between Zora and Joyce.
He wouldn’t told Justin about that either.
Justin kept walking up to Luther.
Only, he turned to Joyce in the end and smiled faintly.
Joyce was stunned that Justin was walking towards her. What was he going to do? She stared at him without opening her mouth.
"Miss Zora, I'm really sorry that you didn't get to work with me."
