Chapter 1098
You Hit My Heart
The broken golden sunlight spread over the bed like a blanket, and he
wrapped his arms around her as the large double bed sunk deep.
"Don't you mess around! It's daytime!" She warned. Her cheeks were
already flushed and the pinkness haloed above her cheeks like a
morning sun.
âYou mean it's okay for the night?" He propped one hand on the
mattress and looked at her amusedly, taking in her blushing
expression.
âI'm not ..." she gasped, unable to get the words out. He was the best
at misinterpreting her words.
He looked at her more indulgently. His long fingers kept playing with
her long hair, and he wrapped her hair around his fingers and then
drew circles on the side of her neck.
"That's not what I meant!" She was tickled by him and had nowhere to
dodge.
"Just kidding. I haven't slept all night, so now I'm holding you for a
while, okay?"
Luther lay down beside her and took her into his arms, flicking the
switch for the automatic curtains over the bed.
The curtains slowly closed, blocking out the bright shining light, and the
room gradually became dim.
He closed his eyes and wrapped his arms tightly around her.
He was too tired
When he finally saw for himself that she was okay, his tense nerves
were finally all relaxed. After days of running, he was now overwhelmed
by tiredness. With her in his arms, he felt he was holding the entire
world.
He felt at ease and his mind was at peace and quiet.
Joyce was hugged tightly by him and was dissatisfied. She tried several
times but failed to break away from him, and when she looked
sideways, she found that he had fallen asleep.
His breathing was even and long, and his good-looking eyelashes cast
a fan-like silhouette on his handsome face.
His chest rose and fell. His robust chest was now too close to her, and
she could even feel the sexy curves constantly rubbing against her, and
her mind was now a total mess.
It's amazing how deeply he slept.
She bemoaned.
The dim light made her even more drowsy.
In fact, she didn't sleep at all last night either.
After the apprehension and fear, although she finally managed to
escape, her heart was always anxious.
Right now, when she was being held by Luther, to her surprise, she had
a sense of reassurance, soothing her fear and panic. She gradually
quieted down and stopped struggling.
Her eyelids grew heavy until they could no longer be opened.
Her whole body turned soft in his arms and she slept peacefully.
Meanwhile.
Otis had wanted to return directly to the Military Staff House to question
Charlotte.
Thinking he'd better get a grip on more important matters, he turned
back to his command.
At about 5:00 a.m., he received a call from Justin, who told him that the
three billion dollars had been credited to his account on time.
He distributed the funds quickly and wired them separately to the
accounts of those senior officers who were willing to follow him so that
they could pay the soldiers in time. And, he transferred part of the
money overseas, and a group of hired special forces would arrive soon.
He received an inside message.
General Ralph had already learned that Cecelia had an accident and
was in a coma.
At this time, he was rushing back to the Capital.
And he had already arranged enough people to make a midway
interception.
Everything would be done before General Ralph stepped into the
Capital.
General Ralph would never have imagined that he would stage an
army coup at such a time.
Darkness before dawn.
Dawn after darkness.
He had prepared for this day and had actually made arrangements long
before he married Charlotte. Originally, he had patiently waited for
Charlotte to give birth to an heir. He could rightfully take over the Heath
family.
But now, he didnât even have that patience anymore.
He just wanted to be as fast as possible.
He could not wait to sit on the throne and enjoyed the supreme power.
