CEO's Passion: Love by Mistake

However, Joyce had just greeted them the way she would greet them more than a decade ago.

As such, her parents couldn't help but get suspicious.

“Should we ask her about it?” Jonathan asked.

Caitlin nodded firmly. “Of course, we must! I need to find out how did she change so dramatically after taking a stroll!”

“Go on, then,” Jonathan replied.

Caitlin rolled her eyes at him. “Fine.”

With that, she passed him the spatula. “Take this. Continue making the dishes.”

“Got it. Go to her quickly,” Jonathan urged after taking the spatula.

Caitlin took off her apron and passed it to him as well before making her way toward Joyce's room.

When she arrived outside the room, Caitlin raised her hand and was about to knock on the door when she heard someone singing.

Caitlin was stunned. That's Joyce's voice! Is Joyce singing? And she's singing an upbeat song? What the hell?

Her expression changed again as a plethora of emotions crashed into her. Ever since the suicide, Joyce had never been in a good mood, and she seldom smiled! So why is she singing now? Besides, she's even singing an upbeat song! Something's definitely not right here. Could it be that she was too sad, and now she's in shock? Is she suffering from a personality disorder? That could happen, right?

With those thoughts in mind, Caitlin didn't bother to knock anymore. Instead, she opened the door and rushed in.

Upon getting in, Caitlin saw Joyce, who was dressed in a set of oversize pajamas, sitting in front of her computer. She had earphones on, and she was moving her head according to the rhythm of the song she was listening to. At the moment, she looked happy.

Why is Joyce acting this way? She's in shock, isn't she? I've only seen her acting this way more than a decade ago. Back then, she would dress unconventionally and act like a child. She only became more mature after she started attending high school. Why is she acting this way now? Caitlin was stumped. “Joyce?”

When Joyce heard Caitlin's voice, she turned around and looked at Caitlin. With a smile, she asked, “Why are you here, Mom?”

At the same time, she took off her earphones and put her legs down from the chair instead of folding them.

Caitlin walked up to her and looked at her with a worried expression. “Joyce, are you...”

Puzzled, Joyce tilted her head and asked, “Am I what?”

After some hesitation, Caitlin finally asked, “Joyce, are you in shock?”

Joyce found the question funny, and she started laughing. “Mom, what are you on about? What do you mean?”

Upon seeing how cheerful her daughter was, Caitlin grew even more anxious. She's definitely in shock!
