Wrong marriage and sweet love (Joyce and Luther)
Chapter 196

Before she put her pen to paper, though...

Luther's handsome and upright figure suddenly came to her mind. They, after all, had to end up in such an embarrassing way. What did it matter if he came to sign the divorce papers or not?

It's also good to get back to where they were supposed to be.

It's best for them both.

He had Charlotte, and the baby. She had to find Justin, too, and her unfinished business.

Joyce's pen, slowly falling, and left soft brush strokes on the clean white paper.

Jacqueline's heart hung in the air, full of anticipation for Joyce to hurry up and sign. She of course hid the divorce agreement from Luther and gave Joyce the divorce agreement privately. She had not dared to tell Luther about Stephanie's death. She was waiting for Joyce to sign the divorce agreement and got the trump card before she dared to tell Luther the bad news.

She also had no time to wait and had to get Joyce to sign in the morning. Once Mr. Arnold returned to the Warner family at noon, she could not hide it.

Seeing Joyce about to put pen to paper and sign, Shelly was just as nervous. She could finally drive Joyce away.

Joyce had just touched the paper with her pen when she suddenly stopped.

Looking up, she looked at Jacqueline.

Jacqueline's breath hitched and she didn't dare to breathe at this moment.

Joyce stared at Jacqueline, at first expressionless, then suddenly smiled a little, the irony in her smile obvious.

"If I sign the divorce paper and then inherit Stephanie's estate, this can be my personal property. Are you really sure? Still want me to sign?"

Jacqueline froze, her mind spinning for a moment.

Joyce was just asking, not waiting Jacqueline's reply.

She did not hesitate, and signed her name in one stroke. Her handwriting is smooth, relaxed and powerful, without a trace of lingering.

It's over, Luther.

After signing, she tucked the divorce papers back through the gap under the glass partition.

"Nothing else for the two of you? Then I'll leave first." After saying that, she stood up, opened the door of the parlor straight away and left without looking back.

Only then did Jacqueline came back to her sense, and she and Shelly looked at each other.

Jacqueline said, "Yes, why didn't I think of that? After the divorce, Joyce's inheritance will be all her personal property. If Joyce inherits during the marriage, it is still joint property with Luther."

She covered her slightly hot cheeks with one hand and recalled, "When I repeatedly consulted my lawyer yesterday, I repeatedly emphasized that Joyce was the murderer. So, the lawyer rightfully assumed that she would not inherit Grandmother's property. So it wasn't pointed out to me that this was the case."

"If, indeed, Joyce is not the murderer. We are now giving Joyce all the part of the joint property of the couple that my brother owns!" Shelly screamed. They never thought about that.

Jacqueline rushed forward to cover Shelly's mouth, looking around, "Keep your voice down, don't talk nonsense, Joyce is the killer! It has to be! She won't have a chance to inherit Stephanie's shares! I won't le her get away with it!"

Shelly's eyes widened and she nodded.
