Chapter 693

"Breaking: Magnificent engagement party turned into a tragedy. A war

of jealousy between the new and former Mrs. Warner?"

He kept flipping forward. For three consecutive days, all the major

pages and headlines were filled with news about them.

He stared blankly at the phone, and his normally dark and dazzling

eyes, at the moment, were completely dim.

It was as if his brain had been emptied, and his body and mind was

long hollow, as if everything important had been taken away, leaving

him only a shell.

He felt his thinking muddled and he didn't know what he was thinking.

There was only one message in his head.

Joyce was not yet found!

Not yet found!

Joyce was not yet found!

He felt that he could not breathe. He pressed his hand tightly against

his chest. The pain was hurting so bad and he could hardly hold on.

The alarm was connected to the nurse's desk. When he sat up just

now, he unplugged the real-time monitoring instrument. Soon, doctors

and nurses all arrived in a hurry.

They pushed in the door and Jacqueline was there. She followed the

doctors and nurses into the VIP room.

When she saw Luther, she heaved a sigh of relief. Just now the alarm

suddenly went off, and she was so scared thinking that something was

wrong with Luther.

She was relieved to see that he had woken up and was okay.

However, she did not dare to approach Luther, let alone forward to

embrace him. As a result, she could only look at him timidly far away

from the bed.

The doctor and nurse came up and asked, "Mr. Warner, you're awake.

Are you feeling uncomfortable?"

Luther shook his head.

The doctor added, "Mr. Warner, you were seriously injured. You had

three broken ribs, broken soft tissue, and varying degrees of organ

bleeding. We have fixed them all for you with the surgery, but still, you

will need to take a long rest before you can fully recover. Fortunately,

your life is not in danger. Please rest assured!"

“I'm fine, and you guys get out.” Luther coldly gave the order.

"Okay, Mr. Warner, if you have any questions, feel free to call us."

The doctor and nurse nodded their heads and then politely exited the

VIP room.

Jacqueline did not leave and stood still.

Now that Luther was okay, she finally felt at ease. Although she was not

yet clear about the whole story, she had a rough idea about it.

“Luther, you are ... it's good that you're okay ... you're hurt badly, and

I'm really worried ..."

Jacqueline stammered.

Charlotte cheated on her, and that was something she did not expect.

She knew she was wrong, and she had made a big mistake. She really

did not expect that Charlotte would do something like that while she

looked so mild, lovely, dignified and well-mannered.

Not only did she and Ricky have a shameful obscene affair, but that

Ricky was also a vicious criminal. Almost even Luther's life was lost in

Ricky's hands.

If they really let a horrible woman like Charlotte into the Warner family.

She could not think about the consequences.

On that day, as for what happened afterwards, she was not clear. The

police had not made any official announcement so far.

All she knew was that the news had been reporting about Joyce falling

off a cliff and now she was missing...

She opened her mouth a bit, but eventually thought better of it. She

better not talk about Joyce in front of her. She didn’t need to since the

way he was checking his phone had told her everything.

“I'm okay?" Luther sneered, and his expression was as cold as ice.

"Oh, I'm fine?" He suddenly smiled sardonically, with pathos, "You know

why I'm fine? You know why I'm still alive, lying here?"

"Why?" Jacqueline asked timidly.
