Chapter 1847: Awakening

At five o'clock in the morning, as if sensing something, Joyce abruptly woke up from a nightmare. She opened her eyes and tried to sit up from the bed. Her movement woke Luther, and he pulled her into his arms, covering her face with darkness and kissing her lips.

"What's wrong? Did you have a nightmare? It's okay, I'm here," he reassured her.

The wet and warm kiss mesmerized Joyce for a moment. As long as she was with him, she felt particularly at ease. Gradually, she felt drowsy again and curled up in his arms, dozing off for a while.

Around six o'clock, the first light of day began to seep through the cracks in the curtains.

The phone placed on the bedside suddenly vibrated.

Joyce woke up again and nudged Luther. “I had it on silent. It's your phone.”

Luther murmured in response and reached for the phone on the bedside table while still kissing her.

"Hello? Who is this?"

Unexpectedly, an anxious voice came through the phone, causing Luther's sweet kiss to pause. His body stiffened, and he suddenly opened his eyes, propping himself up on Joyce's neck with his left hand.

"Why do you have my number? What's happened?”

Joyce realized something was wrong and clung to his shoulders with both hands, feeling her anxiety rise.
