You Hit My Heart (Joyce and Luther)

Chapter 1910: Aftermath

Chapter 1910: Aftermath

Seeing Luther approaching, Alisha slipped off Cecelia and ran towards him, heading straight into his

embrace.

Luther bent down, lifting Alisha into his arms, holding her tightly.

"Daddy, everyone came. Shall we go home together? Grandma said that Daddy and Mommy have their

own home here. I haven't been there yet. And my brother, I haven't seen him in a long time, I miss him

too." Alisha held onto Luther's neck tightly, her soft little arms feeling weightless.

Luther's eyes were full of tenderness. "Alright, let's go back now."

Joyce stood beside Luther, also showing Alisha a gentle smile. She softly spoke, "Alisha, can mommy

hold you?"

Alisha's round eyes, sparkling like black grapes, turned, shaking her head. "No."

Joyce felt a pang of disappointment.

It was still somewhat distant, but Alisha recognizing her made Joyce content. There was time ahead,

and she would definitely hold Alisha in her heart and protect her.

Unexpectedly, Alisha added, "Grandma said mommy has little brothers in her belly. Alisha has to be

good, then she can hug mommy in the future."

Joyce felt her eyes welling up, almost bursting into tears on the spot.

She was so overwhelmed. She had finally waited for this day.

"Alisha is so understanding." Joyce reached out to touch Alisha's rosy cheeks, her heart filled with

happiness.

Felix and Vicki had never seen Alisha before. The two of them curiously approached. Felix exclaimed,

"So this is Alisha, wow, she's so beautiful. Luther, Alisha looks so much like you did when you were

young."

Luther showed a proud expression, "Of course she looks like me."

Vicki felt a bit envious, "I also like daughters, but unfortunately, the ones in my belly are sons."

Felix quickly reassured, "Sons are also good, sons usually take after their mother. Just like you, you

like daughters. We can have more children in the future. Have both sons and daughters."

"Who wants to have so many with you? Do you think I'm a pig?" Vicki rolled her eyes at Felix.

Felix awkwardly chuckled. Belongs to (N)ôvel/Drama.Org.

Luther said, "Felix, Vicki, handle things here, Mr. Ball is nearby, let him take charge. I'll take them home

first, okay?"

"Of course, no problem," Felix agreed. "But you need to explain to us what's going on with Aldis so we

can adapt."

Luther narrowed his eyes, looking around, before speaking, "When Cloud left, he told me that if OGW

fell apart, Clint would definitely send someone to intervene. This was a good opportunity to make a

move on the person sent from Rohomes. I had initially placed someone close to Athena, knowing all of

Athena's movements. Therefore, I used all my resources. In the past, I had a certain relationship with

Rohomes. Through the higher-ups, I found Aldis, with whom I had prior connections. I reached an

agreement with him, of course, offering some enticing conditions. So, Aldis found a way to replace

Cloud and came to Khebury. From there, all of Athena's movements were under my control."

Felix was somewhat displeased, elbowing Luther in the chest. "You scoundrel, pretending to discuss

things with us every time. You knew everything from the start. You're so bad."

Luther laughed, "Both of us have families to take care of. What does it matter what I do in the process?

The most important thing is that the outcome is good. I did it to protect everyone. Now, you and Vicki,

your children are all safe. Isn't that good?"

"True, what you said is right. I'm just not happy, why couldn't you trust me?" Felix still wasn't satisfied.

"He didn't even tell me," Joyce also expressed her dissatisfaction. "I was so worried, you have to

compensate us for our mental distress."

"Alright. Whatever compensation you want, it's fine," Luther shook his head with a smile.

"By the way, Aldis betraying us is top secret, known only to a few of us here. Perhaps in the future,

Aldis could still help us, so his identity must not be revealed," Luther cautioned.

"Understood, undercover," Vicki raised an eyebrow.

"So, where is Aldis? We haven't seen him since we entered the basement," Joyce asked, puzzled.

"He's already left. After we entered the basement, he was responsible for sending the two children

away. After that, he would pretend he had no part in Athena's revenge plan. That is to say, all of this

was solely Athena's doing. He has already taken care of everyone who knew about it. In a couple of

days, he will naturally disband the entire OGW and then return to Rohomes. All responsibility will be

pushed onto Athena, and he will have no connection to it," Luther explained.

"Heh, indeed he is a cunning and sly person. He can benefit from you, report back to Rohomes, and

also eliminate OGW. Killing three birds with one stone. Rohomes people really don't make bad deals,"

Vicki chuckled. "No wonder when I first saw Aldis, I felt something was off. He looks gloomy and fierce,

but his eyes are very clear. There's definitely something fishy."

"You noticed?" Felix couldn't believe it, asking curiously, "How did I miss that?"

"Experience comes from meeting many people," Vicki shrugged.

"So you've been calm all along? Because you felt something was amiss?" Felix inquired.

"Not really. But I saw Mr. Warner was calm, so I didn't need to panic. Besides, in that situation, any

panic or worry would have been unnecessary. Since it couldn't be changed, it's better to accept it

calmly," Vicki spoke lightly, but Felix was still scared.

"It's time to get in the car," Cecelia stood nearby for a while, smiling as she urged, "Anderson is waiting

at home. He's a bit anxious. He won't relax until he sees you."

"Alright. We're leaving now."

Luther held Alisha in one arm and linked the other with Joyce, boarding the military vehicle, waving his

hand, "We'll leave this to you."

Felix straightened his back, "Don't worry. Leave it to us, you go back quickly."

Luther and Joyce nodded, then drove away.

Felix and Vicki soon met with Mr. Ball. The three of them discussed how to handle the aftermath, and

then left all the follow-up matters to Mr. Ball.

Afterward, Vicki said to Felix, "We need to go to the hospital. Westbrook and Kiki are in the hospital

now."

"Okay, let's go," Felix said, taking Vicki's hand. "The children must have been scared. Should we buy

some toys and fruits for them and comfort them later?"

Vicki stared at Felix's hand, "We're not kids, holding hands outside like this is too childish. Who do you

think I am?"

"I'm holding my own wife's hand, is that not allowed?" Felix protested, squeezing Vicki's hand harder.

"From now on, I will keep a close eye on you, don't leave me."

Vicki said nothing.
