Chapter 1999: Mr. Chinn
Luther walked in.
"Did I hear you talking just now?" he came to the desk and asked softly.
"Yeah, Kane. He video called me for a while," Joyce was still a bit angry, too lazy to look up at him.
Luther was a bit suspicious. "What did he want with you?"
There were too many men around Joyce, which made him feel jealous. Especially someone like Kane, young and full of energy, with thick skin, sticking to Joyce like a leech that he couldn't get rid of. It made him feel uncomfortable.
Joyce didn't even look up, her long fingers quickly typing on the keyboard.
"He's my subordinate, of course we talked about work, what else? Chat about life? Ideals? Can you not disturb me? I want to work for a while."
Her tone was a bit sharp, and Luther felt a bit small.
He held her wrist. "Don't be angry, I'll be careful next time."
Joyce couldn't bear his soft tone, she finally looked up, intending to let it go, but when she saw his handsome face in front of her, short hair slightly damp, with a sexy charm after the passion, so handsome it was suffocating, she suddenly couldn't say a word.
This man was probably here to tempt her.
She couldn't help but swallow hard.
Even if there's the will, there's no strength.
Luther lifted her chin, gazing at her. "Don't make me sleep in another room tonight, okay?"
Joyce, as if bewitched, nodded. Copyright by Nôv/elDrama.Org.
Then, her eyes brightened suddenly. Damn it, she actually agreed to him so easily. What she said earlier was just a joke. This man, if not given a lesson, will never pay attention in the future.
Luther chuckled, taking advantage of her still not reacting, lowered his head and kissed her.
Joyce was extremely annoyed, she was actually tempted by his beauty, she wanted to take it back but it was too late.
She turned her face away, pushing him away. "Move, I need to work."
Luther didn't push it further. "Okay, you work, I'll be here with you."
With that, he walked to the sofa and sat down. Leaning against the back of the sofa, he elegantly crossed his legs and scrolled through his phone.
Joyce went through her emails, dealing with her work. She glanced at him from time to time, and indeed, he was working with her. The study was particularly quiet, only the occasional sound of her typing on the keyboard.
It felt quite nice.
She couldn't help but smile.
Actually, she wasn't really angry. She had long since recovered, she just wanted to tease him, not to be so unrestrained in front and behind people, to be more restrained. Did he think the security guards standing at the door didn't know what was going on inside?
They met every day, he was shameless, but she would feel embarrassed.
After working for a while.
The video phone in the study rang.
Luther stood up and answered the video call.
Finally, he hung up the phone, turned to Joyce and said, "Chinn has arrived. Shall I arrange it or do you want to meet him?"
Joyce had just finished her work, so she stood up. "I'll go with you."
"Okay," Luther looked at his wrist, "Andres and Alisha will be home soon, according to their usual time, about 5 minutes. It's a good time to go together."
"Yeah. Let me tidy up my desk, wait for me for a while." Joyce closed her computer and tidied up the files on the desk.
"Oh, I need to change my clothes too," she lowered her head and looked at her clothes, which were a bit wrinkled, so it was better to change.
"No rush. I'll have them arrange Chinn's accommodation first, then he can come up," Luther replied.
After Joyce changed into a suit, Luther and she came to the living room together.
They heard Anderson and Alisha's voices from a distance, they had already returned.
Joyce hastened her steps into the hall.
Chinn had arrived and was at the end of the hall.
Tall, sharp eyebrows and eyes, full of vigor, he looked stable and rigorous.
Seeing Joyce, Chinn immediately saluted, "Good evening! I am Chinn."
Then, he also saluted Luther, "Mr. Warner, good evening."
Joyce looked at Chinn and thought he was quite good.
"No need to be so polite with family members," she waved to Alisha. "Come here."
Alisha ran to Joyce's side, calling sweetly, "Mommy, is this uncle my instructor?"
"Yes," Joyce nodded, introducing Chinn to Alisha, "You should address him as Mr. Chinn. Remember."
"Okay, mommy," Alisha nodded vigorously, then she called out to Chinn with a sweet voice, "Hello, Mr. Chinn, I'm Alisha, call me Alisha, okay?"
"Yes, miss," Chinn still addressed Alisha as miss. There are rules in the military.
Luther asked, "Is the accommodation arranged? Do you find it comfortable?"
"Thank you, Mr. Warner, for your hospitality," Chinn was very polite.
Alisha eagerly asked, "Dad, I really want to learn archery, can I start today? Is that alright?"
Joyce laughed and patted Alisha's head, "Look at how eager you are. Let Mr. Chinn settle in first."
Chinn immediately said, "Lesser General, I can start anytime."
Joyce smiled and shook her head, "No rush."
"What needs to be sorted out now is the issue of the training ground. I've seen a few training grounds, but they are quite far from home," Luther said next to them. "If it's too far, I'm not too comfortable with it."
"I remember the Saunders family has a shooting range, it's located downtown," Joyce suggested, "I remember you took me there."
Luther raised his eyebrows, "Right, how did I forget about Felix. The Saunders family's shooting range has been closed for some time, but with some cleaning up, it can be used. I'll call him and have it ready for us."
"Okay," Joyce said to Alisha, "Today, you can play with Mr. Chinn using a slingshot for a while? Get to know each other. Tomorrow at the latest, you can start your archery training. Okay?"
Although Alisha was a bit disappointed, she was still happy, "Alright."
"Mr. Chinn, let's go to the fourth floor. There's a room specifically for playing with slingshots."
Joyce pulled Alisha back, "Wait, let Mrs. Hurley take Mr. Chinn to explore the house first, okay? Wait for ten minutes. Andres, do you want to play with Alisha on the slingshot?"
Anderson nodded, "Sure. If I have the time, I can learn to shoot a bit, can Mr. Chinn teach me too?"
Luther raised his eyebrows, "Andres, do you want to learn to shoot as well?"
Anderson nodded. He didn't originally have a strong desire, but after seeing Alisha so eager, making him itchy to learn.
Luther smiled, "Of course. It looks like our family will have the national archery team under our command in the future."
Joyce burst into laughter.
