Chapter 176

At this time, Juanita finished copying the materials and came over to

her side, "Joyce, I have copied all the files, is there anything else I can

help you with?"

"And these please. Please help me join them all together. Get them all

done, and I'll be almost done with today’s work." Joyce smiled and

nodded toward Juanita.

The conversation between the two could naturally be heard by Luther

on the other end of the phone.

“Luther, are you done checking in? I'll hang up if there's nothing else. I

want to finish up early, and I have to go back and make dinner for

grandma." Joyce harshly pointed out the intention of his call.

He was a little embarrassed when he heard what she said, "I'm having

some trouble with things here, so I will stay here for another day and

won't be back until the day after tomorrow.”

“Luther, you don't need to report your whereabouts to me. Whether you

come back or not has no effect on me. Bye!" After saying that, Joyce

did not wait for his reply, and directly cut off the line.

At the other end of the phone, Luther stared at the phone with only

"beep-beep-beep” sound. His heart was depressed to the core. Three

days had passed, and it seemed that she was still angry after the

Shelly incident, where he had indeed misunderstood her.

Heh. He couldn't help but smile. This little wild cat.

He picked up the "Wheel of Fortune" necklace he had previously

purchased and held it in his hands, playing with it over and over again.

He never threw it away and finally put it back in his suitcase.

He picked up his phone and sent a message to Joyce.

"Wait for me to come back."

Then he looked at the stone-cold message and shook his head

helplessly. He was now so far away from the country, but he could not

wait to go back. He had never had such a feeling before.

He dialed Casey's number, "Get the materials ready, and we must end

this silly negotiation today."

He was so eager to return that he didn't want to stay a single day

longer.

On the other hand, when it was about four, Joyce finally finished the

work in hand and she started to pack up her things and shut down her

computer.

Juanita was bored playing a mobile game.

Joyce said to Juanita, "Thanks for coming to keep me company, we will

go different directions. I will take a taxi directly back later. You just go

ahead. I'll treat you to dinner some other day."

Juanita quickly packed her bag, "Hmm. No, you'll have to go shopping

with me some other time."

"Good." Joyce smiled with a doting face.

“I'll go first then? Bye!" Juanita waved at her, and her delicate figure

quickly disappeared in the elevator.

Joyce finished all the work and was about to leave when her cell phone

suddenly rang again on her desk.

It kept ringing and ringing, like a death rattle. She thought it was Luther

calling again, and thinking that he had been so annoying she couldn't

help but complain and impatiently reached for her phone. But right at

that moment, her hand slipped and the phone fell to the floor, and

coincidentally, the entire screen cracked diagonally.

Damn, she cursed.

She picked up her phone and it was a number she had never seen

before, not Luther.

Broken cracks across the entire length of the screen looked particularly

hideous.

For some reason, her heart rose abruptly, and her brow furrowed

deeply.

She pressed the answer button.

On the other end of the phone, there was an eerie voice, which was

obviously from a voice processor.

"Go back to the Warner residence right now and go alone! If you dare

to call the police, Stephanie is dead!" After saying that, the phone just

hang up.
