You Hit My Heart (Joyce and Luther) novel Chapter 1

Civil Affairs Bureau.

Joyce Knowles got married today.

When she signed her name and was about to write the name of her husband, she looked up at the man beside her.

The man was so handsome that even the Civil Affairs Bureau staff stole glances at him from time to time. Come on, a woman would just have to be so lucky to get married to such a man, right?

"What's your name? Sorry, I forgot." Joyce paused.

Luther Warner's handsome face darkened. Did this woman really not know his name? Or was she just pretending too well?

Could there even be a woman in Khebury who did not know the name of Luther? He had such a stunning face and such a perfectly proportioned body. He was the dream of every Khebury woman. Of course, he was even the head of R&S Group, a real king in finance, e-commerce, real estate, and entertainment.

He snatched the form from Joyce's hand, and dropped his name directly. The handwriting apparently showed his bold and domineering personality.

That's it then, after the stamp.

Joyce packed her things neatly.

Luther was just about to speak.

But he was eventually interrupted by Joyce, "When is the divorce?"

"The doctor said Grandma may not make it through the month." He retorted in a cold voice.

Her words put him in an extremely depressed mood. When is the divorce? Shouldn’t he be the one to feel worried? What was her hurry?

Joyce frowned. Three months ago, she met an old lady on the roadside. The old lady was having pneumothorax and serious airway occlusion back then, and her situation is critical. Luckily, she was able to give the old lady pericardiocentesis just in time.

The ambulance then arrived shortly and the old lady was eventually safe.

Little did she know that the old lady was a terminal stage lung cancer patient who insisted that her grandson marry Joyce before the end of her life.

"Why can't you just use a fake certificate?" Joyce was still puzzled. They could then save all the trouble then.

Luther gave her a blank look, "We just can’t. Grandma will send someone to check on it."

"I have a request," Joyce said.

"Hmm?" Luther raised his handsome eyebrows slightly, expecting whatever tricks she would play.

"As much as I would like Grandmother to live a long life and enjoy her days. But there comes a time when this fake marriage will end, and I hope that by then you will use your powers to remove the traces that you and I have once received such a license." Joyce said with a serious face.
