Chapter 1119
You Hit My Heart
"But now, since the military has been taken over by their new leader, I
don't know if the previous promises are valid." Luther shrugged.
The Heath family wanted to withdraw from the political maelstrom, but
Otis might not think so.
Otis's desire for power, and ambition, had gone far beyond their
imagination.
Joyce was also worried. Otis received an emergency call last night
before leaving the suburban villa.
She was able to escape as a result. The seemed to be related to the
change that happened today.
No wonder Otis let her go, it turned out to be something more
important.
This man was so terrible. He already had tremendous power and could
not even be satisfied with his position and had to be on the top. How
was such a man willing to return the military power to the government
in the future?
âIvy, it has an impact on the upper class. It doesn't have a big impact on
the people, so you don't have to worry.â Joyce reassured.
"Oh, I'm relieved then." Ivy nodded as she continued back to the
kitchen to wash and clean up the dishes.
Joyce looked worried. For ordinary people, as long as they could have
enough food, all the dramatic changes in the upper class were never
their concerns. It was all the same to them.Anderson sat in Luther's
arms.
Seeing their heavy faces and depressing atmosphere, he put down the
game console in his hand and just watched them quietly.
At this point, the TV station suddenly jumped back to the previous
cartoon.
That seamless cut back to the cartoon characters popping around
inside the screen was as if everything just happened never happened.
Luther rubbed Anderson's head and carried him to the side.
"Good boy, Anderson. You keep watching cartoons and I need go out to
make a phone call.â
With that, Luther stood up and said to Joyce, âI'm going downstairs to
make a call.â
He wanted to go out and call Karl. He probably knew what was going
on.
The forced blockade they encountered in the morning when they
arrived in front of the Military Staff House must be relevant. He also
wondered if Karl had got any information.
Joyce nodded gently.
After Luther left the apartment.
It didn't take long before her phone rang again.
This time it was Justin who made the call.
Joyce's voice was much colder after she got through.
"Ms. Knowles, you didn't finish your sentence earlier." Justin sounded a
little impatient.
"Mr. Henderson, I have nothing more to say.â Joyce closed her eyes,
and through the screen, he couldn't feel her helplessness. It was too
late to say anything now. The worst had already happened.
Justin asked, "Ms. Knowles, why did you call me before? If I heard you
correctly, you called me Justin. Ms. Knowles, when did our relationship
become so close? You reminded me of someone I know.â
âI'm sorry, Mr. Henderson. That was a slip of the tongue and I just
wanted to get closer to you. Please don't misunderstand.â Joyce took a
deep breath, "I hope Mr. Henderson will think carefully about the
current situation.â
"Consider the situation?" Justin wondered.
"Has Mr. Henderson not watched the news? Turn on the TV and see
what just happened. Bye."
After Joyce finished, she hung up the phone.
Originally, she was going to tell Justin who she was.
Now, she couldn't say any more either.
