Chapter 2021: Let's See Who it Is

After sending Joyce back to her room,

Luther stayed with her for a while before leaving the room and making a phone call by the living room window.

After hanging up, he dialed another number.

As he spoke, his face darkened and his voice lowered, "Just as I suspected. She's already showing her tail. Good, you keep a close eye on her. Tonight, she will definitely take action. I've prepared everything here and we must catch her red-handed."

"Stay in touch."

Luther ended the call and fell silent for a moment. Outside the window, the night was pitch black. He crossed his arms and looked at the dark tree shadows swaying in the wind, occasionally making a rustling sound.

Then, he turned back to the room. Joyce had already fallen asleep, with one slender and delicate arm exposed. He reached out, pulling her into his arms and holding her in bed.

Joyce murmured and nestled into his embrace, wrapping her arms around his waist, sleeping more soundly.

Luther closed his eyes and shut off his mind.

He wasn't actually asleep because he knew something would happen tonight.

And indeed.

In the middle of the night,

Luther's phone, placed under the pillow, vibrated a few times.

He immediately woke up, reached out to silence the phone's noise.

Then, carefully withdrawing his arm from Joyce's neck, he gently got up. Opening the door, he put on his coat and left the vacation villa.

Outside the door, Aaron was already waiting for him in the shadows of a big tree.

When he saw Luther, Aaron immediately said seriously, "Mr. Warner, she has taken action!"

"Hmm." Luther nodded, "Finally taking the bait."

As they were talking, unexpected sounds of a door opening came from behind.

Surprised, Luther turned around. He had clearly gotten up silently, so how did he wake Joyce up? But when he turned around, he was stunned to see that it was Anderson who came out.

The night breeze was cold, and Anderson was wearing a thick coat with a hat on.

"Why are you not sleeping and coming out in the middle of the night, Anderson?" Luther asked in surprise.

Before he could finish his sentence, they heard hurried footsteps coming towards them.

Luther turned around in shock again and saw Kane running towards them from the direction of the guesthouse. He was in a hurry, gasping for breath.

Anderson said at this moment, "Dad, Uncle Kane and I set up a program. We expanded the scope of detection. When something happens, it will directly trigger an alert on our phones. I heard the alarm on my phone just now and woke up immediately, knowing that something was wrong, so I ran out. Dad, since you're here, do you already know what's going on?"

Luther hugged Anderson and nodded.

At this moment, Kane also ran up to them.
