Chapter 76
In the Bentley, Luther sped along, driving out far from Canal Square before he stopped at the side of
the road.
Joyce placed the lily bouquet in her hand in the back seat of the car.
She unbuckled her seat belt to relieve the pressure and used deep breathing to calm her disturbed
heartbeat.
"There won't be any more reporters coming after us here” After Luther finished, he got out of the car,
went to the trunk to get water, and handed a bottle of water to Joyce.
Just after all the mess, he noticed her dry lips, and the thirsty and tired look on her face.
She didn't think he could be quite considerate.
Anyway, Joyce took the mineral water, since she was indeed very thirsty.
"Thank you for helping me out just now.’ Joyce took a few sips of water, gently wiped the corners of her
lips, and asked, "Are we still going to the Civil Affairs Bureau next?” Luther turned his head and his
deep eyes looked into her eyes.
He snorted, "How is that possible? A divorce now?"
Joyce thought for a moment and explained, "The marriage license being exposed has absolutely
nothing to do with me, please don't misunderstand."
She looked very much like she had a vested interest in being exposed as married at such an important
moment as receiving an award.
If he felt she was relying on him and did not want a divorce.
Luther gave her a contemptuous look.
How could he possibly think that she had leaked the information herself and then let herself be
surrounded by all the reporters at the podium? He did not even have just any logic? "What now?"
Joyce looked helpless, "How long does it take to get to the application?"
"No divorce at the moment, and the timing is unclear.’ He propped one hand on his forehead, closed
his eyes in annoyance, and said faintly, "You were elected Khebury Shining Star and became a
Khebury ambassador.
This event has improved the image of R&S Group even more.
As the chief president, and getting married to you, it is actually a good thing for the group.
Not surprisingly, there will be a lot of media hype.
With that, the R&S Group stock is bound to soar, bringing in huge gains."
"Conversely, a divorce now would have a huge impact on R&S Group's image and cause incalculable
damage."
Joyce kind of heard it.
She laughed half sarcastically, "You mean, today our marriage is exposed, and still make you a big
profit? After all, the president of the high and mighty family disdains marriage alliance and marries the
talented and kind-hearted ‘Cinderella’.
What a perfect fairy tale.
This is the hottest topic for the media:’ "On the contrary, if we divorce.
The media will say that the high and mighty president, after using the ‘Cinderella’ to enhance the image
of the group, quickly abandoned and still chose a business marriage.
You would be like playing with the feelings of a commoner girl.
Thus, your perfect persona collapses, the R&S Group stock plummets, and you lose a large amount of
money? Right?"
Joyce mentally calculated that the market value of R&S Group was one hundred billion, and a one
percent drop was one billion.
Businessmen were just businessmen at the end of the day, giving priority to profit at all times.
She sounded sarcastic, but it was indeed true. Belonging to NôvelDrama.Org.
Luther frowned a bit, and he said in cold voice, "for the company's interests, now really can not divorce’
Joyce laughed softly, and then her laughter grew louder, almost out of control.
She covered her lips with her hand and tried to restrain herself.
It was helplessness, astonishment, incredulity, mixed with sarcastic laughter.
How did she not expect it? It's amazing how things could turn out this way.
After all the things.
Still, they couldn't get a divorce.
"You're in a hurry?” Luther raised an eyebrow and looked at her askance.
Whenever he heard her pushing for a divorce, he always felt discontent within his heart, "You found
Justin? Are you in a hurry to get rid of me?"
"I'm in a hurry? Shouldn't it be you who's anxious?” Joyce laughed, "What does it matter to you if I find
Justin or not?"
