Chapter 979

"Perhaps, we can find something interesting behind this painting.”

Joyce spread her hands, "The most traditional way may work the best

for a man like him."

"Haha."

Karl smiled. The appreciation in his eyes was undisguised, and his

eyes were glittering, "Joyce, you are just as smart as ever. You knew

everything. Your analysis is just correct.”

Juanita could see the admiration in Karl's eyes and she looked slightly

dull.

"Hey, I'm so stupid and not as smart as Joyce," she sighed.

Joyce was so good, and she could not be even as good as she was in

any way.

When she thought about it, she couldn't help but feel sad.

“Little fool, everyone is just special, so are you. You don't have to be

like anyone else." Karl noticed the change in her and patted her

shoulder gently to comfort her.

“Is that so?" She raised her head slightly and looked at him with love in

her eyes.

She had admiring him all the time, and she was always afraid that, he

might think she never deserved him.

After all, with Joyce right in front of them, she was really just an ugly

duckling.

"Of course." The person who said it was none other than Joyce.

"There is an ineffable affinity in you and everyone cannot help but want

to be close to you. Your smile is gentle and bright and has a magical

healing power. Once upon a time, I was rather withdrawn and had few

friends, but your presence warmed my frozen heart. With you,

everything's so natural and comfortable. This is something that no one

else can do." Joyce smiled blandly and looked at Juanita with gratitude.

"Yes. You are just like a light that can light up everyone's life." Karl

gazed at her and said seriously, "For me, too."

During the most toughest days, she had always been like a light that

illuminated his heart from afar, but had the good sense not to come too

close or ask him for anything in return. He felt touched inside.

For four years, her silent dedication had been in his heart.

He gently covered the back of her hand and gently asked, “Your

luggage's all at my house. Where are you staying these days?"

"Ah, I am ... Thatwas ..."

Juanita was immediately embarrassed, and her cheeks could not help

but blush.

"Starting tonight, you can stay at my place.” He was quite

straightforward, looking at her compassionately.

Juanita was even more embarrassed. She felt her face burning all the

way up to her ears. She looked at Joyce awkwardly and had no idea

what to do.

Why did Karl suddenly talk about it!? What should she even say!?

Joyce laughed and looked at Juanita in amusement, "Since

Commissioner Karl has asked for it, why do you refuse him? What are

you embarrassed about?"

“No, I didn't ... It was my parents who had all my stuff ..."

Juanita stammered, but could not finish her sentence. After all, what

parents would have to force their daughters to live with a man when

they were not even married?

"Right now, Mr. Clark has had his eyes on you, and you'd better just

stay at Mr. Gregory's house so I can rest assured.”

Joyce gave Juanita a way out as she stood up and grabbed her bag.

“It's late, and I should go back to stay with Anderson. About Mr. Clark, if

you need anything or if you need me to do anything, just let me know."

"Hmm. We still need a plan. Might be missing a hacker." Karl said.

“I can find you one. Kane can help you, and he is one of us." Joyce

said.

"That's good then. After everything's ready, I will let you know." Karl

smiled.
