Wrong marriage and sweet love (Joyce and Luther)
Chapter 1712: Never Started, Just Continued

Chapter 1712: Never Started, Just Continued

Joyce didn't answer. She continued browsing the news and enlarged the photos.

She flipped through one photo after another, carefully examining every detail.

"General, should we call Mr. Warner? I don't think there was any estrangement between you before. In a situation like this, you should proactively clarify things. I believe Mr. Warner will give you a reasonable explanation," Darrin said from the side.

"Wait. Look here."

Joyce suddenly pointed to one of the photos and enlarged it. "Although it's obstructed, take a look. Isn't he holding the popular Sharita doll? I've seen outdoor ads for these realistic dolls. Besides being able to change clothes and style their hair, they can also apply eyelashes, do makeup, and paint nails. It's the hottest toy among girls right now."

Darrin sighed and rubbed his forehead. "General, where is your focus? We don't have the mental capacity to study toys right now. Your phone will start ringing off the hook soon. How do you plan to explain all of this?"

"Hush!" Joyce put a finger to her lips, signaling Darrin to be quiet.

Her gaze remained fixed on a corner of the doll, confirming it repeatedly.

Indeed, she hadn't seen it wrong.

Luther bought the Sharita doll? What is he up to?

Continuing to browse, Joyce narrowed her eyes and her expression turned serious.

"Darrin, I might have an idea of what's going on," she murmured.

Darrin froze and quickly asked, "What's going on?"

Joyce looked up and gazed at Darrin for a moment. "I'll tell you when I'm sure."

Darrin remained silent.

Wasn't this driving him crazy with suspense?

"Look at this photo. I think there's a hotel in the background. It's deliberately blurred, and the news didn't mention which hotel they entered. But the person who took the photo must have been following them to capture the image, so they definitely know which hotel it is. They clearly know but deliberately didn't disclose it in the report. What do you think is the intention of the informant?" Joyce pointed to a specific detai in the photo and raised an eyebrow, asking Darrin.

Darrin pondered for a moment. "The informant doesn't want the public to know too many details, but they want the public to know about this matter?"

"That's right. They want both exposure and protection. Contradictory, isn't it? Who would do such a thing?" Joyce continued her questioning.

Following Joyce's line of thought, Darrin suddenly realized, "Are you saying that the woman intentionally leaked the information? The so-called Mr. Warner's first love, Athena, deliberately leaked it, wanting to create a social sensation while not exposing too much of her own privacy."

"Exactly!" Joyce snapped her fingers. "Close enough, it should be like that."

She contemplated for a moment.

"You go and arrange things outside. If there are any reporters, block them all. Let the news continue circulating online, but it shouldn't affect our normal lives, especially Anderson's kindergarten. Go there yourself today and inform all the teachers. No private discussions," Joyce instructed.

"Alright. But..." Darrin was also worried about Joyce. "General, if you need me, call me anytime, and I'll come back as soon as possible."

"I'm fine. Have Mr. Arnold get more people and make sure all the reporters near the Warner residence are kept away. I'll handle the rest myself."

Just as Joyce finished speaking, her phone began to ring.

She looked down and saw that it was Karl calling.

Helplessly, she shook her phone at Darrin. "You see, it has already begun."

Darrin nodded and turned to leave.

Joyce answered the call, smiling lightly. "Hello, Karl. It's been a while since we last spoke. You're worrying about me again."

Karl's voice was calm. "It seems you already know. Your voice sounds calm, so I assume it's not a big deal. How can I help you?"

Joyce said, "Since Mr. Gregory called personally, I can't refuse. I really need your help with a small favor."

Karl asked, "Hmm, go ahead."

"You've seen the photos online, right? I want you to help identify the hotel where Luther and that woman went. It's deliberately blurred. We need to digitally enhance it to determine the exact location. The informant intentionally didn't disclose it," Joyce continued, "I think you've probably noticed it too, it was the woman herself who leaked the information."

"Yes, I called you because I wanted to discuss this with you. In addition to the details you mentioned earlier, I also noticed something else. In the third photo that was released, there's a person in the distance who should be a bodyguard. It's normal for them to have bodyguards when they go out. What's abnormal is the way this bodyguard walks, the posture and movements resemble the professionally trained Rohomes," Karl explained.

Joyce was taken aback. "Rohomes again?"

"Not only that. Try zooming in on the image of that bodyguard, enlarge it as much as possible, and look at his wrist. There's a glimpse of a tattoo," Karl enticed.

Following Karl's instructions, Joyce carefully enlarged the image. "Indeed, there it is. Oh my, Karl, you truly are an expert, exceptional. You notice even the tiniest details. So, what does this tattoo represent?" "The symbol of OGW!" Karl, who usually spoke concisely, got straight to the point.

Joyce was once again shocked. "OGW?! I remember Luther mentioned that the people who were chasing him before, he suspected they were controlled by OGW. How could he be with someone from OGW?" "So, Luther hasn't been with you recently?" Karl keenly observed the problem.

"No. I haven't heard from him for a week, and he still hasn't contacted me even after the news broke this morning," Joyce didn't conceal anything. "Karl, don't worry. Whatever he's involved in, I'll find a way to handle it myself. Please take care of Juanita and let her know I'm fine."

"Heh, I can't hold her back. She'll probably call you in a moment," Karl chuckled.

Joyce sighed. Indeed, Juanita's personality couldn't be changed even after becoming a mother.

"Joyce, I believe Mr. Warner must have his reasons. However, with Rohomes and OGW appearing simultaneously, things are probably not simple. Take care of yourself. If you need help, don't hesitate to ask," Karl stated seriously. "I have a feeling that it's not a new beginning but a continuation of something that never ended. I'll hang up now, contact me if anything comes up."

"Alright." After hanging up the phone, Joyce fell into deep thought.

Karl's words undoubtedly reminded her.

Seemingly unrelated matters were intricately connected to previous events. Otis secretly contacting Rohomes, the recent frequent appearances of Rohomes people in Khebury, and the sudden appearance of OGW?

It's not a new beginning but a continuation of something that never ended.

So, the events happening now are all a continuation of unresolved matters from the past?
