Chapter 412
You Hit My Heart
After the dinner with Karl.
She did not return to the R&S Group headquarters. She did not want to
work overtime today. Last night she had only three hours of sleep, and
then in the morning after the Thomas incident, she had been in the
police station until the afternoon. Now she was exhausted.
By now she was so sleepy that she yawned all the way back to Eden
Apartment.
Arriving at Eden Apartment, she got out of the car and looked around,
relieved that Justin hadn't come tonight.
Actually he had sent her a few messages, but she was so busy that she
did not have the time to reply, until just now in the cab, she sent him a
message. She said she was tired today and would talk about it some
other time.
Justin then replied with a message telling her to get an early night and
said nothing more.
Joyce took a deep breath of the fresh, moist night air. She really didn't
have the energy to deal with Justin tonight, and now she just wanted to
get to sleep.
She hurried back to her apartment, and she opened the door.
In the past few days, she had added some furnishings and fabrics to
make the whole apartment look very cozy.
When she got home, she didn't even have the strength to turn on the
light. She groped her way to the bathroom and took a quick shower,
after which she wrapped herself in a bath towel and pushed open the
door to her room.
She was so tired and sleepy that she was ready to fall back to sleep.
The moment she lay down on the bed, she suddenly realized the
presence of danger, and her whole body was instantly awake from
sleepiness in fright.
Something's wrong, there's someone in her bed!
Someone snuck into her apartment and slept in her bed.
She violently tried to get up and turn on the light in her room.
To her surprise, the man on the bed was startled as well and
overpowered her in an instant. His strong arms pressed against her
body so that she could not move. She tried to kick him away, but his
long legs wrapped around her so tightly that she couldn't move a bit.
The hot temperature of the manâs body, transmitted to her from behind,
was appallingly hot.
Shit, she thought something terrible was going to happen, and was just
about to call for help.
A low, magnetic grunt came from behind, âDon't move, it's me."
This voice... Is it Luther?
Joyce just felt a loud bang in her head, Luther was sleeping in her bed
in her apartment? Justin at least just waited for her downstairs, but
Luther came into the house and slept in her bed.
This shameless man!
"How did you get in here?!" Joyce was hot-headed and completely
furious. She struggled hard, but the man behind her wrapped his arms
and legs tightly around her, as if he wanted to suck her into his own
blood and bones.
âIt's not that simple? Combination lock, your birthday. You never use a
second password.â He sounded tired and sleepy, his hard chin resting
against the soft nape of her neck, the newborn scruff prickling her.
"Good girl, let me sleep for a while, I'm sleepy. I didn't close my eyes all
night yesterday, I was all over Thomas," he said, tightening his arms
around her waist.
Damn it, she cursed under her breath. He knew her usual password
and got right in. It was her fault that she was too lazy to put any thought
into it, and the password was so simple that everyone knew it.
Justin was a gentleman and would not have entered her room without
her permission.
And this rogue man in front of her, who usually looked aloof and
arrogant enough, in fact had no bottom line. And his skin was thicker
than the walls! She felt completely helpless.
