NovelEnglishLuther took a few steps to catch up with Joyce and reached out to pull her in.
Joyce turned her head, feigning surprise, "Why did you followhere? | told the driver not to wait for me, it would just waste
everyone's time."
"l also told the driver not to wait for me." Luther replied faintly.
"So how are you going to get back? Have Aaron pick you up? It takes him more than three hours to cand go." Joyce asked
knowingly, "Forget it, | don't want to ask you. I'll go find my phone first."
She walked all the way back, until she walked near the beach, passing by the previous tarot card stall, and the soothsayer had
closed the stall, leaving only an empty tent.
She searched around the tent and found nothing.
Then she continued on her way and returned to the hair accessories stall she had visited with Juanita earlier.
The store had not yet closed.

Joyce went up and asked, "Hello, my friend and | just bought shair accessories here. Have you seen a red cell phone left
here?"
The shopkeeper shook his head, "Sorry, | haven't seen it. You can go look elsewhere."
"Strange, | obviously sent a text message nearby. It probably slipped out of my pocket, but it should be nearby." Joyce pretended to
try to recall, "It can't be wrong, it must be nearby."
"You didn't turn off your phone? I'll call your phone and find out." Luther took out his cell phone and dialed Joyce's number.
The hair accessory stall was also closing. They leaned over to the tent.
"Listen carefully, | think | can hear a little faint ringing of my cell phone." Joyce followed the sound until she cto a reef bush.
Luther dialed again.
The ringing gradually beclouder and louder, and Joyce searched for a moment in the reef bush and finally found her phone.
"Oh, it's a good thing | didn't lose it. There are a lot of important records in there, and it's a lot of trouble to lose this phone." She
let out a sigh of relief and wiped the phone clean.
"So | have found my phone. Now what? How are you going to get back?" Joyce asked Luther.
"By the way, you haven't called Charlotte back yet. | just suddenly remembered."
"So what?" Luther raised an eyebrow.
"If you don't answer, she'll think | didn't tell you. Not good." Joyce pointed to Luther's phone, "It won't take you a minute to get
back to her. Don't make it hard for me."
Luther narrowed his sharp eyes and glanced at her coldly, and then dialed Charlotte's number.
Charlotte picked up almost instantly.
"Hey, looking for me?" Luther's voice was clear and cold as if she could never get close to him.
"Not going back tonight."
"Not tomorrow, there's a meeting."
"Okay, you take care of yourself."

"Hanging up then."
From the the answered the phone to the the hung up, Luther said only five sentences in total, and none of them showed
any concern about her.
Joyce knew from Luther's conversation that her purpose had been accomplished.
For one thing, Charlotte thought Luther was with her and stayed overnight in the seaside town, and now she must be furious. For
another, Luther refused to visit Charlotte in the hospital, and Charlotte must have taken it out on herself. Charlotte must think she
seduced him again.
So what would Charlotte, who was angry to the core and bent on revenge against herself, do at this point?
Joyce flexed and sat on the reef, "Got to deal with sbusiness messages now."
In fact, she was opening her chats.
Earlier Karl had sent her a message but back then she hadn't had tto reply to his messages.
One of Karl's messages read, "Confirmed that Ricky has arrived in Khebury. He first put his luggage back to the Heath family and is
now staying in a hotel near the military hospital."
