Chapter 1759: The Fortunate Misfortune


    Chapter 1759: The Fortunate Misfortune


    As early summer gradually arrived, the days became longer.


    At six o''clock, the evening sun and the red glow still hung in the sky, casting a beautiful hue over


    everything.


    Room 708 on the seventh floor of Cloud Land.


    Joyce arrived early and sat in the private room. The window disyed a stunning sunset, with the


    lingering rays of sunlight shining upon her, giving her a radiant glow.


    She absentmindedly gazed at the passing cars outside the window. The soundproofing of the private


    room was excellent, and she couldn''t hear any noise from the outside world. Her inner peace was


    astonishing.


    She knew that Luther must have received her call and heard her confession, which is why he remained


    silent for so long.


    The situation was far more serious than she had imagined, and she couldn''t stay on the sidelines any


    longer.


    Darrin apanied her tonight, but he didn''t enter the private room. Instead, he stayed outside,


    protecting her. Beforehand, Darrin skillfully inspected all the equipment and corners of the private room


    to prevent anyone from tracking their movements or eavesdropping.


    A few minutes before six o''clock.


    The door of the private room was opened from the outside, and Vicki and Felix entered one after


    another.


    With just one nce, Joyce could tell that the atmosphere between them was different from before.


    The main difference was Felix, whose affectionate gaze couldn''t be concealed.


    Joyce couldn''t help raising an eyebrow. Had something happened between the two of them?


    After entering the private room, Felix took the initiative to pull out a chair for Vicki. Unexpectedly, Vicki


    stepped on the chair leg with one foot and said, "No need, I can do it myself."


    With that, Vicki kicked the chair away and sat down.


    Felix couldn''t help but facepalm at Vicki''s bold and heroic demeanor. Vicki was Vicki because she was


    so unique and different from everyone else.


    Joyce smiled and said, "Well, Mr. Saunders, you seem to be in a good mood."


    Felix took a seat and wore a smile. "Of course, Vicki and I got married today." He couldn''t contain his


    excitement and had wanted to announce it to the world. He had admired Luther for a long time, and


    now that he had just gotten married, he naturally wanted to tell Joyce first.


    Joyce was momentarily stunned, as she hadn''t expected their rtionship to progress so quickly. She


    had heard that they were somewhat ambiguous with each other, but in the blink of an eye, they had


    even obtained a marriage certificate. It was like lightning speed.


    She quickly reacted and smiled. "Oh, congrattions. This is a momentous asion. Make sure to


    invite me to the wedding."


    Just as Joyce finished speaking, Vicki smoothly continued, "There won''t be a wedding. Don''t wait for


    it."


    Felix, "..."


    He knew it would be like this. He actually wanted a grand wedding. Obviously, Vicki wasn''t interested.


    He had already pushed his luck by getting married today, so he couldn''t push it further. When it came to


    the wedding, they would discuss it slowly when Vicki was in a better mood.


    Damn it, weddings are usually something women look forward to, but now he was the one who wanted


    it.


    Felix coughed lightly. "We moved back to the Saunders family. We''re not considering a wedding for


    This content belongs to N?/velDra/ma.Org .


    now. Everyone already knows, so it''s fine. Besides, you and Luther didn''t have a wedding either. When


    do you n to have one?"


    Joyce''s expression momentarily showed a hint of mncholy. Yes, Luther had always intended to have


    a wedding. However, he had been busy with the warlord situation and was currently pregnant with


    twins. The wedding had been postponed time and time again.


    A more difficult issue was Luther''s poisoning and her daughter whom she had never met.


    As she thought about it, her mood grew low, and her heart sank bit by bit.


    Vicki furrowed her brow slightly, seemingly sensing that Joyce''s expression wasn''t right.


    She pushed Felix lightly and said, "We''re here to discuss important matters. Let''s not talk about


    useless things."


    As Vicki raised her hand, Joyce narrowed her eyes, sensing that something was wrong. "Vicki, is your


    arm injured? What happened? Is it serious?"


    Felix anxiously held Vicki''s arm. "Be careful, don''t hit it. After all, it''s a gunshot wound."


    Joyce furrowed her brow. "Gunshot wound? Is it rted to OGW?"


    She had already guessed it.


    Vicki nodded, confirming Joyce''s suspicions.


    With a deep breath, Joyce said, "As expected. OGW has started to take action."


    Vicki ced her injured arm on the table. "It''s just a minor injury, it''s fine. Tell me, since you took


    theinitiative to contact me, there must be something urgent and important."


    Joyce nodded. "Alright, let me briefly exin the situation. We can exchange our information."


    After about an hour, Joyce recounted everything she knew about the situation.


    At the same time, Vicki shared any relevant information she had.


    Felix also talked about Luther''s contact with him and the tasks he had been assigned.


    After they all finished speaking, they came to a unanimous conclusion.


    Vicki summarized, "It''s clear that Alisha is currently in Athena''s hands. Based on the tasks Luther


    assigned to Felix, we can make the following conclusions. First, Luther''s movements are definitely


    restricted. Normally, no one can restrict him unless they have a significant threat to his loved ones, in


    this case, Alisha. Second, it''s certain that Luther is nning to rescue Alisha. Based on the anesthesia


    and detonator unlocking mechanism he needs, we can deduce..."


    Before Vicki could finish her sentence, Joyce smoothly continued, "We can deduce that Athena has


    imnted a detonator in Alisha''s body. That''s the fundamental reason why Luther is being hindered."


    After speaking, Joyce clenched her fist tightly, almost crushing the teacup in her hand.


    "Damn it!" Felix eximed, his voice filled with anger. "Damn Athena, she''s a snake! To do something


    so vicious to a four-year-old child, she''s worse than an animal!"


    Vicki furrowed her eyebrows. "It was my carelessness. I should have discovered that Alisha was being


    hidden by Athena earlier. If I had, things wouldn''t have developed to the current situation."


    Joyce took a deep breath. "How can you me yourself? You''ve already done so much to help. At


    least now we''ve rified the situation. What we need to do now is to discuss how to assist Luther in


    rescuing Alisha."


    "What about Luther''s poisoning?" Felix suddenly asked.


    Joyce''s breath hitched, and her emotions became even more deste. Even if they sessfully


    rescued Alisha, there was still the matter of Luther being infected with the bio-toxin. They had no clue


    how to handle it. The unknown fear made her deeply afraid.


    Vicki rubbed her temples. "We''ll tackle one thing at a time. Let''s save the child first."


    Felix sighed. "That''s all we can do."


    Joyce rested her chin on her hand, looking increasingly deste.


    She was left with such a difficult choice. Her current energy could only be focused on rescuing Alisha.


    Her daughter, whom she hadn''t seen since she gave birth...


    Confirming that Alisha was still alive was a fortunate misfortune.
