Chapter 373
You Hit My Heart
âI'm going to Hotel Clarenhill. Drop me off at the front intersection,
please.â
Joyce said suddenly.
Justin was stunned, obviously feeling Joyce's aloofness towards him.
"Reporters are all around this place, and they may be following us. If
they catch you getting out of my car, it'll be all over.â
Joyce thought about it and said, âThen I'll go to a hotel a little farther
away. Go to the Hotel Royal on the outskirts of town, I don't think that
the reporters will be able to follow me there."
Justin's good-looking eyebrows were gently tweaked.
"Joyce, we haven't seen each other for a long time. I've been thinking
about you day and night. Have you ever thought of me?"
The car was lit with a yellowish light, reflecting on her beautiful face.
Today, when she first appeared in the Riveria Haze ballroom, he had
actually seen her. More than three months, she had become more
beautiful. She had lost some of her youth, but she had more charm
than before.
He had his heart set on her before, and now he could not stop thinking
about it.
He gently picked up her hand, brought it to his lips, and gently kissed
her fingers.
She froze and jerked her hand back.
"Justin, since you disappeared from the hospital, I never stopped
looking for you.â She admitted, âI'm glad to see your legs recovered so
that I'm finally relieved, too."
Justin was slightly stunned, she was, indeed, still only thinking of duty
in her mind.
Although he had always known that she never loved him.
However, from the beginning, he was 100% in love with her.
âJustin, thank you for helping me out tonight.â Joyce felt the need to
make it clear, "But you know very well that the child in my belly had
nothing to do with you."
Her tone was cold and distant.
Justin's heart stung, "Joyce, it was my fault in the past. I know that the
child in your belly has nothing to do with me. I don't care whose baby it
is either. From now on, let me take care of you, okay?"
Sincerely, he held her hand tightly.
âYour child is my child.â
At this moment, Joyce's heart was somewhat shaken.
Justin had changed and was not at all the same self-loathing he once
was.
Now he was much calmer and more composed. He was now mature
and aspiring.
She wondered what exactly he had gone through in the past three
months or so.
But the Henderson family, as she had learned, was definitely a deep
pool.
Today, Justin was the CEO of the Henderson family bank.
She later learned that the Henderson family was full of internal
conflicts. The eldest son Derrick was in fact an illegitimate son, and
Justin, born by the wife of the old Mr. Henderson, was the second son
of the family, and Derrick was eight years older than Justin, so there
was no such things as brotherhood between the brothers.
Justin disappeared for more than two years, and Derrick finally took the
position of CEO.
Now, the power had suddenly shifted to Justin, did it mean that the
structure of the Henderson family had changed?
Today, a reporter asked a sharp and sensitive question. More than two
years ago, the leg injuries of Justin, was it related to Derrick?
She always thought that she was the one who made Justin unable to
stand on his legs.
Could it be that there was something inside that she didn't know?
The past was something she did not want to explore anymore.
As long as Justin's legs were back to normal, she had no regrets.
The responsibility that was once more important than her own life could
finally be put aside.
She didn't want to owe anyone anything, be it Luther, or Justin.
