Chapter 137
You Hit My Heart
If she answered the phone, it would be hard for her to explain why she
was with Christian. It was about the Warner family and the Ballard
family, and if they had a problem, it would be even harder for her to say.
But if she didnât answer the phone, she was afraid that Luther would
look for her everywhere and everyone would know.
Joyce thought about it again and again, and decided that it was better
not to answer the phone.
She simply turned her phone to silent, and her ears were not bothered.
Christian's eyes glanced at Luther's phone and his lips showed a cold
smile. He knew very well, Luther clearly saw him and Joyce together in
the car. Now he called Joyce. Was he even afraid that he might eat
Joyce?
Joyce picked up the jack, went to the wheel, skillfully drove the
runabout up and used a special wrench to remove the tire.
Christian looked at her with adoring eyes. He never expected a girl
could be so wild and could even change tires for him.
"Amazing! What else can't you do?" He asked curiously.
"There are a couple of things indeed, like getting rid of flies like you."
She retorted.
He felt that he could not speak, and as soon as he spoke, he would be
retorted by Joyce.
And what a fiery little wildcat.
"Hey, I heard that you are the main designer for the integrated casting
technology of the car design project of R&S Group?" Christian asked
as he lit a cigarette on the roadside and held it between his two fingers.
He looked just evilly sexy.
"You've asked around, why are you asking me." Joyce struggled to turn
the wrench and looked up at him, "Got the time to smoke, can't you
help?"
Christian took two puffs and threw the cigarette on the floor and
stomped it out.
"Hold down here and help me wrench it together." Joyce pointed to the
screw, âThis one is particularly tight and I just can't get it off."
Christian squatted down and helped turn the wrench together, and the
two of them worked together and finally took the screw off.
âThere you go." Joyce quickly removed the tires, âIt's hard to remove,
but much easier to reinstall. You just don't stand in the way."
After saying that, she pushed Christian away from her, who was in the
way.
âYou are really..." Christian blackened his face. What a ruthless
woman! Shouting at him when she needed him, and throwing him away
when she did not need him anymore.
Looking at her skillful action, he squatted beside her again, "How much
R&S Group pays you, I give you ten times.
We at the Ballard group also have an automotive program that had
been a strong competitor to the R&S Group. Do you want to think about
it? I'll cover the breach of contract for you."
Joyce put the new tires on and screwed it back, "Doing things the way
they should be done is a matter of professional ethics.â
When she was done, she stood up. In her haste to get up, she didn't
notice that Christian was crouching beside her. Her raised elbow
directly hit his handsome and cool chin.
"Ah." Christian screamed in pain, covering his jaw.
Joyce said awkwardly, "Sorry, I didn't see you.â Seeing his exaggerated
expression, she couldn't help but frown, "Does it hurt that much? It was
my arm that hit you, not a jackhammer."
âIf my handsome face is ruined, you'll be responsible. You will need to
stay with me then.â He said grimly.
"Heh." Joyce put the old tires and tools back in the trunk.
Pull out a wet paper towel from the car and carefully wipe her hands
clean.
Christian leaned against the roadside railing, legs folded, re-lita
cigarette, his whole person immersed in the lingering smoke, and
seemed to thought about the past. He quietly spoke, "Some one like
Luther, simply won't deserve your love. You know too little about him."
