"Yes, Mr. Henderson, I already know about that. The past is in the past, and Mr. Henderson could just let it go." Joyce said with relief. Garrett's days were numbered, and she couldn't possibly be bothered with him.

"Hey, my son, Justin, just can never forget about you. He is my son, and I know him the best. He grew up very obedient and never did anything to displease me, until he said he wanted to marry an orphan girl, and I was furious and firmly opposed. Once I thought that I could force him to give up and he would listen to me, but I did not expect... he ran away from home for more than two years. I have known a little bit about you two, and it's thanks to your care over the past two years that Justin has been able to get back on his feet." Garrett sighed and said with heartfelt gratitude.

"Actually it was nothing, even if I knew the truth of the matter at that time, I would have taken care of him without any hesitation." Joyce smiled lightly. Indeed, even if it was out of friendship, she would still take care of Justin.

"And without beating around the bush, may I ask, is it true that between you and Luther, it's just a fake marriage because of Stephanie?" Garrett asked bluntly.

Joyce's bright eyes flashed slightly, thinking, "Yes. On the 18th of next month, he and I will be officially divorced. I believe you should also have received the invitation. Next month, he will be engaged to the daughter of the Heath family on the 19th." She felt that she could not explain the complexity of her relationship with Luther. It was better to just say there was nothing between them.

"Yes, I have received the invitation." Garrett nodded.

"You don't have any feelings for Luther, at all?" He pursued.

This time Joyce didn't even think about it and said straight back, "No."

Her answer was so quick that it seemed like she was trying to hide something instead.

"Justin won't marry any other woman but you, and I just want to ask, would you, would you like to marry him?" Garrett suddenly looked deep into Joyce's bright eyes, as if he wanted to see her through. Joyce was stunned, not expecting him to ask that.

She hesitated; she did not want to marry Justin. Not in the past, not now.

Her momentary hesitation was immediately apparent to Garrett, who had been in the business world for a long time.

"Oh, I knew it. That silly boy will have to get disappointed this time!" Garrett let out a long sigh. In fact, he had seen that Joyce and Luther must have feelings for each other. It was only for this reason that she was so quick to deny the relationship between the two. It seemed like Justin would have no hope this time. If he did not try to stop it before, there would not be a Luther.

"Joyce, I was wrong about you at the beginning. Although you are not of any high origin, you are of good character and have excellent ability. I have also heard a little about your design achievements and contributions in R&S Group. In the past, you are just so calm on the fields and I also know that. I regret that I should not have hindered you because of your background and my old-fashioned ideas. Now I also know that it is all too late."

After that, he let out a long sigh again, "I am old now, and I can't control him anymore. I hope you can persuade him to take over the Henderson family bank and not to start a new business against me all day long."

Joyce was completely surprised get an apology from Garrett today.

She had thought that there would be only humiliation again.
