Chapter 1633: Gathering Together

Luther drove towards the warlord's inner courtyard. The sky had already darkened, and along the way, neon lights flickered on and off. The light inside the car also intermittently brightened and dimmed. Joyce turned her gaze towards him. He held the steering wheel with one hand while propping his chin with the other. Although his eyes were on the road ahead, his mind seemed elsewhere. Her intuition told her, he had something on his mind.

A moment later, Luther snapped back to reality, realizing Joyce had been watching him. He felt a bit nervous and forced a smile, “What's wrong?" Seeing her silence, he tried to tease her to divert her attention, "Are you fascinated by me?"

"Uh-huh. You look very good, I'm fascinated," Joyce simply played along with his words.

This caught Luther off guard. Joyce's uncharacteristic response could only mean something was amiss. Embarrassed, he asked, "What's wrong with you?"

"Nothing." Joyce cast a deep look at him, "Who were you calling in the bathroom earlier?"

"Oh." Luther turned his head guiltily, steering the car while replying, "It's nothing, just some work-related stuff that suddenly came to mind, so I made a call."

"What work-related stuff exactly?" Joyce asked further.

Luther hesitated; usually, she wouldn't probe. He dodged the question, “Logistics and port trade stuff. Casey called me at the hospital last time about the new port construction. Some decisions need my presence, so I made a call to give some instructions about an important link that I suddenly remembered.”

"Heh, you didn't remember it all afternoon, how important could it be?" Joyce's voice cooled slightly.

At that moment, she was certain, he was lying. She had heard a few words at the door, although not very clear, but it should be related to pharmaceuticals. She had heard the words “pharmaceuticals”. But he said it was about port construction, which was far from the truth.

She glanced at his handsome profile. By now, there were no barriers between them. She had given her heart to him, and she could also feel his deep affection for her. But why should he deceive her, what was he hiding?
