You Hit My Heart
Chapter 12

Married?

This time it was Joyce's turn to be surprised.

She didn't like the idea of being a third party in a fake marriage.

Luther, still indifferent as ever, snorted lightly, “You don't mean, themarriage contract with the Heath family?"

Jacqueline nodded repeatedly, “That's right, that year our family andCecelia Hurley really agreed that the eldest son and daughter will bemarried later."

"But the daughter of the Heath family has been missing since she wasa child, and the Heath family is known all over the world for not beingable to replace her," Shelly interrupted.

"The Heath family is really going to replace their daughter this time. Theyhave already got some clues they say." Jacqueline said to Luthercautiously, "Luther, although our Warner family can be rich. After all, itwas only business we deal with. The Heath family from the capital havefirmly controlled the military power for a hundred years. You shouldunderstand the importance of this marriage. Marriage is not to be takenlightly?"

"Wow, a daughter of the Heath family, even nobler than a real noble."Shelly looked really envious this time. The Heath family was onlysecond to the royal family when it came to power. It was noexaggeration to say the daughter of the Heath family was almost aprincess.

Luther was just about to speak.

Joyce snaps, "I'm sorry, I didn't know Luther has a marriage contract. Ifyou want me to do anything about it, just say it."

Marriage between these two families, so they could have both wealthand power each. Were they planning to conquer the world? How couldshe just stand in their way?

Luther plucked out a livid look at Joyce.

When she heard Joyce's words, Shelly finally saw the opportunity to dosomething. She immediately stepped forward and took Luther's armaffectionately, "Brother, you should hurry up and divorce Joyce.Professor Owens’ project was invested by our family. No wonder shecould get in, it was because of you, right? Brother, you have to help meget her out of this program.”

"Ahem, you don't mean Professor Owens’ automotive design program?I got in that program myself."

Joyce couldn't resist interrupting and correcting her.

This fake marriage and how she got into the program were two differentthings.

"Stop it, who do you want me to blame for your not being good enoughto get in?" Anyway, Luther still loved his sister.

And that was why Shelly was always a bit arrogant.

However, Luther knew that Professor Owens was an old-fashionedscholar who was so dedicated to academics and would not do such athing for money. Moreover, this vehicle design project led by ProfessorOwens was very important to R&S Group. For the company, it wasnothing less than a key to the whole global market.

He didn't realize Joyce could be part of the project.

There were just more and more interesting sides he could replace from thisJoyce.

He just could not imagine how Joyce could be so good at academics."Brother!" Shelly was so angry that she stomped her foot. How couldshe stay in school after this?

“Luther, hurry up and get a divorce. You cannot hide it, and there will bemore trouble if the media replaces out." Jacqueline worried.

“You are leading a wolf into the house. You won't be able to even getrid of her if you want to in the future. Brother, don't be fooled by her.""Shut up, all of you!"

They were all interrupted by the voice of an old lady. Despite the tracesage had left on it, its former majesty was still undiminished.

At the end of the living room, an old lady walked slowly over with acane.

Although her hair was already silver-white, her face full of wrinkles,Joyce could still see the grave fortitude in her heroic youth and imaginethe stunning beauty she had when she was young.

"Grandma, why are you out." Luther rushed forward to hold her. He justloved his grandma so much.

On the contrary, he did not much of a feeling for his biological motherJacqueline.

“I'm not dead yet. What, already thinking about dividing up theproperty?" Stephanie Chapman gave Jacqueline a fierce glare.

“Mom, I didn't mean it like that." Jacqueline lost her breath at once.

“I heard it all. Joyce is my granddaughter-in-law. If you don't want toshare the family with her, just don't forget I still have some shares!"Stephanie raised her voice, exasperated.

Joyce saw Stephanie's face turn livid, so she went forward and saidgently, "Grandma, you don't look well, please don’t be angry. You musttake care of yourself."

Stephanie held Joyce's hand, looked at her kindly, and smiled withsatisfaction, "You can stay here with no worries. With me here, no onedares to do anything to you."

"Yes, yes, yes." Joyce nodded awkwardly.

She grew up without a family, but Stephanie gave her a sense ofkinship. She felt moved by her love.

When she first agreed to the fake marriage, she simply hoped thatStephanie could have no regrets in this life.

Jacqueline did not dare to say anything. Her mother-in-law Stephaniewas one of the founders of the Warner family and owned ten timesmore shares than she did.

“You guys! Are you all hoping for my early death?!"

Stephanie stomped her cane hard and pointed angrily at Jacqueline,who was just about to speak. However, Stephanie's face suddenlyturned pale and she fell upright to the ground.J0000000000
