Chapter 974

After Mr. Clark was gone...

Joyce turned around and said with concern, “Juanita, are you okay?"

“It's okay, Joyce. You're here just in time."

Juanita shook her head.

“Karl, I'm sorry. I didn't have time to hang up the phone and make you

worries and you had to run all the way here."

Juanita bowed her head to Karl and apologized.

Karl's arm tightened, his anger not going down at all, "What are you

talking about? Should I stand by while you're in danger? What kind of

person do you think I am?"

“I, I didn't mean that. You have a special status, and I'm afraid Mr. Clark

will ask that Mr. Moore of the Military Intelligence Agency to investigate

you. You rashly ran here, and now Mr. Clark knew our relationship and

he knew about Joyce. I am afraid that it will affect our plans.”

Juanita's voice got lower as she spoke.

“Is the plan important, or is your safety important?" Joyce also got

angry and went up and knocked Juanita's little head, "Mr. Clark

obviously wants to force you to marry him by corrupting your reputation

and then spreading the news recklessly. This is no small matter."

“Juanita!” Karl shouted out her name, “I didn't think you'd have the guts

to do that! This must not be the first time he's ever hit on you, so why

haven't you ever mentioned it before.”

“I, I thought he wouldn't dare ..." Juanita stammered.

"Dare?" Karl couldn't help but retort, “A horny old man, what do you

think he wouldn't dare?"

“I'm sorry. I know I am wrong."

Juanita saw that she had made him so unhappy and hastened to admit

her mistake.

She had always been very good at admitting her mistakes and,

moreover, she was always very quick to do so.

Karl stared at her helplessly, and he was really unable to do anything

about it.

"By the way, your wedding date has been decided? When is it?"

Joyce heard Karl mention it earlier and she asked curiously.

“Next month. Our parents are in quite a hurry.”

Karl said back.

Juanita was a little embarrassed to mention this. Since she agreed, her

parents simply could not wait to sweep her out of the house sooner,

and they had even packed all her luggage and sent it directly to Karl's

home.

They seemed to be quite afraid that she might regret, and she felt like

she was a bit homeless even now.

She was too embarrassed to actually live in Karl's house.

She could only spend a couple days in the hotel, and a couple days

with a friend of hers.

“That's great. I'm so happy for you guys. Unfortunately, I don't know if I

will be able to attend your wedding then.”

Joyce had some regrets.

"Joyce, the fact that you are still alive is the greatest comfort to us.”

Juanita gently stroked Joyce's shoulder and said comfortingly, "As for

the rest, it doesn't matter.”

"Hmm."

Joyce nodded her head.

“Let's find a place to discuss the plan to deal with Mr. Clark. We might

not have so much time."

Karl looked around and suggested, "It's not convenient to talk here.

We'll talk at a cafe near the House of Inspection.”

"Good."

Juanita nodded her head.

Joyce responded, "Well, no problem. I'll call home first."

She walked to an unoccupied place and called Ivy. She asked Ivy to

take care of Anderson, and told her that she would be home pretty late

tonight.

According to Ivy, it seemed that Luther did not return to Blue Ocean

either.

She wondered what Luther had been doing today. He didn't even go

back when it was already so late?

How strange!

Meanwhile...

Luther heard what Mr. Ward said and was lost in thought for a long time

before he finally came to his senses.
