Chapter 1129

"Hmm. What? Don't want to part with me?" He pressed his handsome face down to her ear and

snickered.

"Fuck you." She shrugged him off awkwardly.

She stood up, moved her limbs and joints, and said coolly, "Just a casual question. Anderson will ask

me when the time comes."

"Tsk, who cares what kind of flowers you have outside and need to entertain. We're not a couple. Just

do what you like." She did not forget to add a faint sarcasm to her words.

Luther looked at her with amusement. No matter how long it had been, no matter how she had tried to

disguise herself, her nature was always like a hedgehog.

With just a gentle touch, all her thorns would stand up. It was simply too cute.

The more this happened, the more he liked to tease her sometimes.

"I'm just meeting with Karl. What flowers are you talking about." He said back.

Joyce froze, "Karl?"

Something wasn't right. What could they possibly talk about?

Although the two of them did know each other before in Khebury, after they arrived at the Capital, they

got nothing to do with each other except for the case of Mr. Walsh.

Luther's expression froze as he realized he had said the wrong thing.

Unintentionally, he mentioned Karl.

"Uh, yeah. It's Karl ... and I … There's something I want to discuss with him." Luther tried to think of

something to say at this moment. But he could not think of a suitable reason.

"With the director of Special Investigation Unit? Mr. Warner has a lot of friends. I wonder what do you

have to say to the people of House of Inspection in private? Since when you got so close?" Joyce

questioned.

"It's not really that important." Luther couldn't really think of a reason and had to put it off, "I'll tell you

later."

He looked at his watch, "I have to go, bye."

Having said that, he hurriedly left her office.

Damn, he almost told her everything.

If she knew that he and Karl had formed an alliance, it would not be difficult for her to guess that he

already knew her identity.

He still wanted to keep it a secret for a little longer

Right now, the time was not right.

Joyce looked suspiciously at Luther's hasty back, and her eyebrows furrowed gently.

That's weird.

Karl had also been oddly quiet lately.

When she told him about being held hostage by Otis and his recognition of his identity, he was pretty

calm. It was too unusual.

She wondered what Karl was planning.novelbin

She stretched her body around the office, and she was tired after drawing for several days in a row.

Perhaps she should relax herself a little with this afternoon.

Since Luther went out to meet with Karl, she could simply contact Juanita. They could talk about what

happened lately.

With that in mind, she took out her cell phone and dialed Juanita's number.

"Hello Juanita, are you free this afternoon?"

"If you're free, I’m definitely free then." Juanita laughed cheerfully.

"Can you come around my apartment for a coffee? I have a little time before I pick up Anderson from

school." Joyce said softly.

"Okay, no problem. Just send me the location and I'm leaving now."

"Well, I'll see you later."

Joyce tidied up her office, grabbed her bag, and then left the office.
