Chapter 518

When she left the Warner residence, she didn't take any of her fancy

clothes and jewelry with her. She was not interested in these.

"Mr. Warner, why didn't you give me an invitation for your

engagement?" She suddenly asked.

Luther froze, not expecting her to make such a request.

“You're coming?" He frowned.

"Why not?" She raised an eyebrow.

“I'l have Aaron send you an invitation tomorrow.” He said back, "I'll go

first.”

With that, Luther turned and struck out of the apartment.

When Luther left, Joyce breathed a long sigh of relief and sat down on

the couch.

She had to admit that the sofa was too much more comfortable than

before. It was soft enough and gave her back enough support. Even for

sleeping, the new one was more comfortable than the previous one.

The whole apartment, now equipped with master-class furniture, was

still small but had a full sense of sophistication.

Sure enough Luther was quite generous on everything he did.

She was lying on the couch and it was late. She took out her phone

and found some missed calls and unread text messages. Probably she

had put it on silent when she was at the Heath residence so as not to

disturb anyone and forgot to turn it back.

The text message was from Karl, asking how she was doing.

She immediately replied to the text message, "He has gone, it's fine,

thanks for your concern.”

The missed calls were from Justin, three in total.

Joyce thought about it and called back.

Soon, the call was answered and came Justin's gentle voice, "Joyce,

you finally returned my call.”

"Oh, put it on mute, didn't notice. What is it?" Joyce said back.

"Nothing, just wanted to hear your voice, and I was going to go see you

at Eden Apartment. Can I have some tea in your apartment?" He asked

in a soft voice.

Joyce looked at the clock, and it was past twelve, "Sorry, it's too late,

I'm going to rest."

"Joyce, we have become much more estranged from each other. You

used to stay overnight in the house we rented just so that you could

take care of me. Now, you really can't? I can sleep on the couch,

Joyce, and I really want to see you. I'm right near your apartment, and

I'll be there as soon as you agree." Justin insisted using a soft tone,

and if he didn't take the initiative, Joyce wouldn't respond.

Joyce stroked her forehead. Now she had a chaotic situation here and

really could not let Justin come over.

More importantly, with all the furnishings in the house, it took just a

glance for someone like Justin to know that they must be expensive,

not at all like the style she would like.

The key reason was that Luther showed up from time to time.

She remembered that Luther had just said that the reason he was

staying here before the divorce was to prevent her from bringing

another man back and cuckolding him. Now Justin offered to stay

overnight at Eden Apartment.

She was so overwhelmed with headaches.

“Justin, you should understand that it's impossible for us to go back to

the old days.” She replied feebly over the phone.

“I know. I won't force you. I'll wait until you want to. It's very late and I

won't bother you. Tomorrow at noon, is it okay if we have lunch

together?" He asked.

"Okay. I'll hang up then." Joyce couldn't bear to say no to all of them, so

she had to agree.

After hanging up the phone, she took a quick shower and lay down on

the bed tiredly. The new bed was comfortable and she quickly fell into

sleep.
