You Hit My Heart (Joyce and Luther) novel Chapter 724

"Damn Luther, you put Athena through that and never reflected on it after all these years, and now you've actually put even Joyce in a coma because of you.”

“Damn it, damn it! In this life, I will never let you go!" He gritted his teeth and slammed a few more punches towards the wall in quick succession.

The walls in the hospital were made of diatomaceous earth, pitted and full of granules.

Instantly his knuckles bled, staining the wall red. He didn't even realize it yet, just lashing out in a rage.

"Stop it."

Vicki suddenly stepped forward and held Christian's wrist to stop him from hurting himself.

"I know you've had a deep love for Athena since she was a child, but six years have passed, and for good reason, you should move on from the pain of the past.”

“Otherwise, you don't look like the Christian I know."

She took his hand, her long eyebrows furrowed, "You're bleeding. Just go bandage it up."

"No need."

Christian drew back his hand, unconcerned about his bleeding finger.

"Now that you're here, do you want to go see Athena ?" Vicki asked in a faint voice.

"It's not necessary. I feel ashamed to see her. I have failed to protect her.”

“She has been in a coma for six full years now.”

For these six years, Luther had got enough women around him and must have long forgotten her. But she, who had foolishly given all for him, has now been lying here alone for six years."

Christian's dark eyes lit up with angry flames, "Everything is in vain. I am sitting on a billion dollar fortune, but I can't even do anything to protect the people I want to protect.”

“That was true of Athena before, and it's true of Joyce now."

Speaking of his past, he leaned against the wall in a disheveled and powerless manner, as if he was immersed in the grief of the past.

Vicki looked at him silently, without saying a word.
