You Hit My Heart by Kylie Stanford

Chapter 1906: Resolving Grudges with a Smile

"What do you mean?" Christian's voice turned sharp, "Even now, you're still obstinate?"

"Obstinate? Hehe." Athena suddenly pressed a button on the remote in her hand. There was a series of booming sounds, and the surroundings seemed to tremble as if something had fallen nearby. Christian turned alert, scanning around, "What did you just do? Did you seal off the basement exit?"

"You're not entirely foolish," Athena lightly caressed her fingers. After being exposed, she didn't show a hint of panic; she was indifferent.

Christian clenched his fists, glanced at Joyce, and apologized, "I'm sorry. It's my misjudgment and wishful thinking that has caused you so much trouble all this time."

Joyce gently shook her head, her eyes clearly conveying that it wasn't his fault, that he had already done too much for her.

At the same time, she discreetly held Luther's hand. His hand was warm, hers, slightly cold, and warmth transferred through his palm to hers. When Felix revealed the truth just now, events from over a decade ago finally came to light. For her, it held no special significance because she had always believed in Luther.

Luther also firmly held Joyce's hand, intertwining their fingers, feeling her trust, and he was immensely comforted.

"Felix, thank you. You've untied the knot in my heart that has been building up for many years," Luther looked at Felix with sincere eyes. "It's because of Athena that I started to feel disgust and suspicion towards all women. I always felt that they approached me with ulterior motives. Once bitten by a snake, one is scared at the sight of a rope for ten years. Otherwise, I wouldn't have been so suspicious of Joyce when we first met..."

He tightened his grip on Joyce's hand even more, "I wouldn't have doubted her, misunderstood her, almost harmed her, and missed her, even though I had already fallen for her long ago. It's my fault, people are completely different from each other. I shouldn't have equated the harm I suffered from Athena with others."

In her crystalline eyes, Joyce gazed at Luther, not expecting that Luther's initial lack of trust in her stemmed from Athena's initial harm, to the point of madness and self-destruction. Although she had long forgiven him, at this moment, she understood him more, even felt sorry for him. He had been wrongly accused and tormented for more than a decade, unable to explain, even causing a rift with his brother. He bore too much; it must have been very difficult for him.
