Chapter 253
You Hit My Heart
"Since Grandma chose to modify her will before she died, there must
be a reason behind it. Grandma died for no reason, and I will not
divorce until we find out the truth.â Luther stated his attitude on the
spot.
Charlotte also heard it clearly, and her face changed.
Find out the truth? She knew best who the real murderer was. The day
they found out the truth, won't it be the day of her death?
She could never let them know about the truth and Luther would never
get a divorce?
âLuther, the Heath family wants to see you. Rodney will meet you
personally. Cecelia and I have agreed on a time, the night after
tomorrow, and we will go together. At least there should be an
explanation.â Jacqueline wanted to use the Heath family to suppress
him.
Luther's thin lips curled up, "Yes, that's exactly what I'm going to do. I'll
make my attitude clear to Rodney in person.â
As he spoke, his eyes glanced over to Charlotte, who had always
pretended to be clueless.
The eyes were so cool, without a trace of temperature.
Charlotte's heart was half cold. His indifferent attitude to her was not as
grateful and indebted as before. Probably he just wanted to repudiate
the marriage contract in person.
At that moment, Joyce returned to the lounge from the bathroom.
Having just thrown up, she looked pale and her lips had lost their blood.
Luther saw the difference in her and nervously stood up and walked
over to Joyce, asking with concern, "What's wrong with you? Did the
wound crack again? Does it hurt? Here, let me see.â
As he said that, his long arm had already swept her to his side, trying to
lift her coat to check the wound.
His mind was all on Joyce, completely forgetting that there were other
people in the room.
Joyce glanced at Jacqueline, and Shelly, and their eyes were like
knives stabbing at her, not to mention Charlotte was still there.
How embarrassing?
He was overly concerned about her.
She hurriedly pushed Luther away, avoiding his touch, and waved her
hands, "I'm fine. Maybe I ate something cold this morning and my
stomach is not feeling well."
"Why? I had breakfast with you, there can't be a problem. Should I just
ask Jamie to come and take a look at it for you." After saying that, he
was about to make a phone call.
"No." Joyce hastily snatched his phone, âI said no! I'm fine!"
Embarrassed, she nudged Luther hard and reminded him in a whisper,
"So many people are here!"
Luther then came back to his senses. He did, just now, see how
uncomfortable Joyce was, ignoring that there were others next to him.
At this point, Charlotte was feeling both angry and desparate.
What a contrast! Twice she had pretended to have dry heaving, and
Luther had simply asked out of courtesy and nothing more. She had
expected Luther to worry enough to take her home or take her to the
hospital so that she could be alone. Who knew that he would do
nothing at all.
But when Joyce had a little discomfort, his nervousness was just so
obvious.
Charlotte felt deeply hurt. No matter how thick-skinned she could
pretend to be, she just could not stay any longer.
She was just looking for embarrassment herself staying there!
"Sorry, I'll leave you guys to talk.â She did her best to show a smile, but
in reality it was worse than crying. After saying that, she hurriedly left as
if she had run away.
When she made it to the front door, Ricky was waiting for her in the car.
And Ricky immediately noticed that there was something wrong with
her face, "What's wrong?"
"Joyce!" Charlotte's eyes were red with rage, "Joyce, she would just
have to die!"
