Chapter 299

That evening. Yuliana and Joyce found out through the phone that Winnie had woken up. Joyce, who was busy at that time, hung up after saying a few words. She had no idea what exactly had transpired.

Joyce said, “She was only awake for a few minutes and was quite confused. She could barely recognize me. When I spoke to her, she couldn’t hear me properly.”

Her voice sounded sad, helpless, and a bit tired.

Yuliana knew that Christopher wasn’t the only one exhausted these days. Joyce, too, was tired. She had lost her husband and had to deal with things both at home and outside. Still, she had never said anything to others and carried it all silently.

Winnie’s current situation was not optimistic.

Although she was resuscitated that day, she would not last long. The doctor had already sent a critical notice and informed them to be psychologically prepared because it was only a matter of time.

Yuliana felt a little uncomfortable when she remembered how she had been getting along with Winnie these days.

The two of them fell into silence as neither of them spoke.

After a while, Yuliana called out, “Joyce.”

Joyce turned to look at Yuliana and asked, “What’s wrong?”

Pursing her lips, Yuliana said, “Did something happen between you and Christopher?”

Joyce raised her eyebrows and asked, “Why do you say that?”

“The two of you have been acting strange lately,” Yuliana replied honestly.

Their behavior was unusual.

Christopher and Joyce had always had a good relationship. Christopher respected Joyce very much, and Joyce loved Christopher like her own brother. However, their relationship had been quite tense as of late.

Joyce lowered her eyes. The expression on her face did not matter. She replied, “Things have been tense, but it’s also because of the change in status. He’s now the Acting Chairman of Solace Corporation and responsible for many of the company’s major decisions. Obviously, I have to supervise them, but they’re all official business, and it doesn’t affect our private relationship.”

Yuliana found it hard to believe Joyce’s words. She looked at Joyce’s reaction and asked, “Is that all?”
