Chapter 1728: A Grand Display
Surrounded by a crowd of journalists, Joyce walked out of the cafe's entrance.
Although the reporters encircled her, none of them dared to get too close. After all, her identity was
there, and she couldn't be compared to a celebrity.
Joyce didn't answer; instead, a mysterious smile played on her lips.
The reporters were unwilling to give up and continued to ask questions.
"Young Marshal, can you answer? How is your relationship with Mr. Warner now? Will your marriage be
affected?"
"Mrs. Warner, as you hold shares in R&S Group, if you were to separate, would it cause a drastic
fluctuation in stock prices?"
"Young Marshal, Mr. Warner has not appeared or made a statement yet. Could there be any
misunderstandings?"
"May I ask, how would you evaluate the woman who left just now?"
Joyce nodded in acknowledgment to the reporters, continuing to walk away.
It was only when she reached the open space in front of the main entrance that two columns of soldiers
in warlord uniforms jogged forward. Darrin, unusually dressed in formal military green uniform, stepped
forward. The insignia of a junior staff officer shone brightly.
The grand display of military personnel made the reporters tremble with awe, quickly splitting into two
sides and not daring to act recklessly.
Darrin approached Joyce and saluted, "Young Marshal, it's time for us to go back."
Joyce nodded, glancing back for a moment. She speculated that Athena was probably hiding behind a
nearby tree, secretly observing. She smiled contentedly.
Then, Joyce cleared her throat and began to explain to the reporters, "Since you all came here today, I
will state my position."
The reporters eagerly awaited, their cameras clicking non-stop, capturing every moment.
Joyce spoke solemnly, "Firstly, it is a fact that a third party has attempted to intervene in our marriage.
As previously reported and witnessed just now. Secondly, there are no cracks in the marriage between
me and Luther; it is solely the unilateral wish of the third party. Finally, I want to say that no matter what
happens, I will defend my marriage and drive away the third party. Please wait and see."
Joyce knew that some were broadcasting live from the scene.
She chose to speak clearly and directly, leaving no room for Athena to maneuver. This was the result
she desired.
If Athena thought that she would easily give up Luther or cry after being abandoned, she was gravely
mistaken.
After finishing her statement, Joyce's lips bloomed with a stunning smile.
Confident, beautiful, graceful, and elegant, combined with her heroic bearing, her flowing hair dancing
in the breeze, she looked absolutely gorgeous in front of the cameras.
The reporters erupted in applause almost simultaneously. Joyce's image was exactly what they had
imagined a young marshal should be like.
After the applause subsided, reporters expressed their own doubts.
"Young Marshal, this only represents your own opinion. Are you sure Mr. Warner hasn't committed any
infidelity? How would you respond if Mr. Warner wholeheartedly wants a divorce?"
"Yes, Young Marshal. We admire your courage, but could you please tell us in detail about your plans?
How would you handle it if Mr. Warner insists on ending your relationship?"
Darrin, feeling displeased, was about to step forward and drive away the reporters.
Joyce extended her hand to stop him.
She smiled and looked at the two reporters who had asked the questions.
"Since you addressed me as Young Marshal, don't you know that Luther and I are in a military
marriage? Unless I agree, we cannot get a divorce. From the moment I put on the uniform of a young
marshal, our marriage has been protected by the law."
The reporters were momentarily stunned, then slapped their foreheads in realization. "Oh, right, how
could we forget? Sorry, Young Marshal!"
Finally, Joyce finished answering the reporters' questions.
She nodded with a smile as a sign of acknowledgment.
At this moment, Darrin approached her. He greeted her, and they walked together. He escorted her to a
dedicated military vehicle, followed by dozens of military vehicles lined up in a grand and majestic
formation.
After several loud engine roars, the line of vehicles departed, creating a magnificent scene.
Athena, hiding behind a tree at a distance, observed everything clearly. She was furious, and anger
couldn't describe her current mood. She had never felt so stifled before.
From childhood to adulthood, she believed that no one was more beautiful than her.
She had to admit that Joyce was truly beautiful, with a unique and captivating charm. No wonder Luther
was infatuated with her.
But she would never admit defeat, nor would she retreat.
Luther originally belonged to her, and he always had. From the moment she laid eyes on him, she
vowed to have this man. There was nothing in this world she couldn't obtain. Power, money, men-it was
all the same!
Just now, Joyce had put on a grand display, clearly trying to assert her dominance over her.
And she could only hide and observe from a distance, which made her extremely frustrated. It felt like
she was hiding in a dark corner, unable to bear the sunlight.
Damn it.
The more she thought about it, the angrier she became. She angrily punched the tree trunk in front of
her. Her delicate fingers got scraped, but she didn't feel the pain.
Suddenly, as if venting her frustrations, she tore the divorce agreement in her hand to shreds. Damn it,
damn it, damn it! She cursed repeatedly. She completely ignored the fact that Luther and Joyce were in
a military marriage. It seemed that as long as Joyce didn't agree, they couldn't get a divorce!
She felt like she was going mad.
Joyce! Since you won't divorce, then I'll have to kill you!
She fiercely kicked the tree in front of her, causing leaves to rustle and flutter in the wind.
Rage consumed her. Now, all she wanted was to kill Joyce!
Meanwhile, Luther was still in the hospital room, holding Alisha in his arms.
He knew that Athena would definitely go to find Joyce to sign the divorce papers. Throughout the day,
he had been anxious and uncertain.
It was only when he saw the breaking news that a relaxed and relieved smile appeared on his lips.
Joyce, she really did it. She lived up to his expectations and proved herself. She was capable,
courageous, and extraordinary. She had always been like a shining star, illuminating his world.
Captivating him, making him unable to resist.
Not only did she refuse to sign the papers, but she also announced to the whole city that she would
defend her marriage.
Moreover, she had an excellent reason.
Yes, how could he forget? In a military marriage like theirs, if one party unilaterally requested a divorce,novelbin
even if he had signed the papers, it would have no effect. Heh, Athena's plan had gone completely
wrong!
Now, it was up to him. He was planning a comprehensive plan to rescue Alisha.
Once successful, he could reunite with Joyce immediately.
