Female Novel
Chapter 1170
On Friday, Joyce was getting ready to leave work.
Luther seemed to have gone out and she hadn't seen him all day. She had no idea what he was up to
or who he went out to see. Anyway, she had a vague feeling that what he was doing at the moment
had something to do with her.
All the employees in the office were on vacation, and only Kane was left to revise the program for their
new products.
Joyce said to Kane as she packed up her things and left the office, "I'll go first. You're the only one left
in the office, so check the security system again before you go."
Kane looked up from in front of his computer, "Sis, you're leaving so early today?"
"Hmm. There's nothing going on anyway, so I'll pick up Anderson from school early. It's the weekend
tomorrow and I plan to take him for a good time." Joyce said back.
Kane could not help but roll his eyes in his heart. It must have been because Luther was not here that
she did not want to stay in the office either. She just wanted to meet him. Just now he stole a glance at
her several times, and she looked distracted and she was always looking in the direction of the door.
"Sis, let me go with you to pick up Anderson." Kane's eyes were crystal clear as he suggested.
"No need for that today. You go about your business, I'll go first." Joyce smiled and politely declined, "I'll
bring Anderson out some day and have dinner with you."novelbin
Kane flattened his mouth. He found her words so perfunctory, and he was farther and farther away
from her now.
"All right." He reluctantly returned.
He hadn't even started declaring war and had already lost completely.
"By the way, sis. I think the military have been watching the media more closely these past two days."
Kane suddenly said.
"What do you mean?" Joyce stopped in her tracks.
"Most likely, Otis' power grab is not going very well, and he can't get much support internally and is at
odds with other officers. He can only strengthen the control of external news, and he needs to buy
more time to strengthen his temporary military power." Kane analyzed, "This just represents my
personal understanding."
"Understood, thanks." Joyce looked slightly relieved, "That's a good sign. It means that there are quite
a few people who would defy Otis."
"That is for sure. The Heath family have been there for a few hundred years, and Otis can by no means
deal with that easily." Kane agreed, "Sis, why? Aren't we and the military just a project partnership?"
"Nothing." Joyce smiled casually, "I'm leaving."
Recently, the days passed calmly day by day.
She didn't know what she could do either and she knew she should not force anything to happen.
Otherwise, it would only backfire.
The only thing she could do now was to wait.
She walked downstairs to Cloud Bay Tower.
It's still snowing outside, and it hadn't stopped for two or three days, with flawless white snowflakes
falling in droves. The whole world had turned white, and the snow was like a white carpet.
Suddenly, her cell phone rang.
She thought it was Luther calling her.
When she took out her cell phone, she found that she never saw the number before.
The silent winter day was quiet everywhere, except for the cell phone ringing shrilly and clearly.
For no reason, she panicked inside, her chest thumping hard.
Normally, when she received an unfamiliar number, she would not care at all. But at this particular time,
who could it be that was looking for her?
