Chapter 1664 The Tanaka Family

Chapter 1664 The Tanaka Family

Three days later, Luther returned to Khebury with Joyce, Anderson, and

Darrin. The Mufron group was ultimately unsuccessful. Upon returning

to the Warner residence, the matter was not publicized and only a few

people knew about it. After Mr. Arnold found out, he destroyed

everything that had been prepared to move lIris's grave, as it seemed

ominous to prepare such things when life and death were uncertain.

The jet lag was a bit tough, and Anderson lay in Joyce's arms, rubbing

his eyes. After holding back for several days, he finally couldn't help but

ask, "Mommy, is it possible that my sister is still alive?"

Joyce took a deep breath. "Well, for now, no news is good news."

Her eyes dimmed. "Sleep now. You've been through enough these past

few days. Daddy and Mommy will take care of these things, so you

don't need to worry."

"Mm, goodnight, Mommy. I hope my sister is okay." Anderson closed

his eyes and fell asleep.

Joyce walked out of the room and closed the door. She looked up and

saw Luther already dressed and ready to leave. “Are you going out? It's

so late," she said, looking at the clock. It was almost ten o'clock, and

she was puzzled.

"Yeah, Felix has been looking for me a few times, so I have to go,"

Luther said, hugging Joyce and kissing her ear. "I might come back

very late. Don't wait for me, go to bed early."

Joyce reached out and held him. "Wait."

Luther turned around.

Joyce pulled him down and stroked his handsome cheek. "You seem to

have something on your mind."

Luther kissed her lips. "How could I not have something on my mind?

Did you notice? Sorry, I didn't want to affect your mood."

Joyce sighed. "Don't put too much pressure on yourself. Whatever the

outcome, I won't blame you."

Luther's heart shook, and his thin lips trembled slightly. "Okay, I know.

Rest well. I'm leaving now." He turned around and left, his tall figure

disappearing at the door.

Joyce's eyes dimmed again. She felt that something was wrong with

him, and it wasn't just the pressure he was under. He seemed restless.

One night, she woke up in the middle of the night and found him

standing in the hotel living room, looking out the window. He didn't

sleep and just stood there, looking out the window until dawn. She

didn't know what he was thinking.

And then there were the strange things he said.

She shook her head and told herself to trust him. She shouldn't be

thinking too much.

She went to the living room and sat on the sofa, flipping through the

news aimlessly. She had seen Luther look at news about the Rohomes

monarchy dispute before, and she happened to come across it again.

The dispute over the Rohomes monarchy was like an epic historical

drama, with complex and intricate relationships between the characters

that were bizarre and chaotic.

She noticed that there were two major families in Rohomes, the Tanaka

family, and the Yoshikawa family. One controlled the monarchy, and the

other controlled the military. One was the emperor, and the other was

equivalent to the old shogunate. They balanced and restrained each

other, while also marrying each other and being enemies.

Over the centuries, the two major families had constantly split, merged,

and split again, in a legendary experience.

Tanaka...

Joyce suddenly remembered the man she had met at the National

Hospital, the grandson of an old man. When he introduced himself, he

seemed to have mentioned Tanaka. She thought about it carefully and

remembered his name: Reuben!

That silver-haired man was named Tanaka. She hadn't paid much

attention at the time because there were also many people named

Newman in Pascaylia. She didn't think about it too much.

The names of the members of the Rohomes monarchy were not made

public. Although there were many people named Tanaka, she had a

feeling that the silver-haired man was not an ordinary person. She

didn't know if he had any connections to the monarchy, or why he

would appear in Pascaylia.

Joyce thought for a long time but couldn't figure it out. She shook her

head. Recently, Rohomes had appeared in her line of sight frequently.

The third-party force related to Otis, the man with excellent skills she

had met at the Capital Peninsula Bank, and now Reuben.

She had a feeling that something unusual was going to happen.

On the other side, Luther arrived at Felix's place.

He frowned when he pushed open the door.

The room was full of the smell of alcohol, the curtains were tightly

closed, and there was no light in the room, making it lifeless.

He kicked the wine bottle onthe floor and walked to the window. With a

"whoosh," he opened the curtains and the window, allowing fresh air to

come in.

Felix was sitting on the floor, and the cold wind of the night blew in,

cutting his face like a knife, making him feel even more despondent.

When he saw Luther, he said, "You finally came."

Luther frowned. "Why did you do this to yourself? Is it because of

Vicki?"

Felix picked up a bottle of alcohol from the floor and was about to drink

it.

Luther took the bottle from him and said, "Don't drink anymore."

Felix held his head. "She hasn't talked to me for days. I went to look for

her, but she wouldn't see me. These past few days, she even left

DeNox without saying goodbye or whether she would come back. Don't

laugh at me, but I really can't be without her now. I can't stand even a

day without her. Is her heart made of stone? We've been together for

four years. She can't have no feelings for me, can she?"

His voice grew even more mournful. "Even though I explained it so

many times, Christian still won't believe me. He's still obsessed with the

Athena matter. What does he want? We even ended up falling out over

it."

"She didn't die,” Luther said coldly, suddenly breaking the silence.
