Chapter 2009 Surprises
After Elsa left, Luther pulled Joyce up from the chaise lounge, glanced thoughtfully out the glass door a few times.
Joyce tidied her clothes slightly.
"Let's go." Joyce linked arms with Luther and walked downstairs.
Passing through the long corridor, they arrived at the lobby on the first floor, where Joyce was genuinely stunned to see someone
standing in the living room.
Besides Anderson and Iris, there was another man standing with his back facing them.
The figure looked very familiar.
The man turned around.
It was Kane!
"Hey, sis! Surprised? Unexpected?" Kane's sunny smile, like a big boy, instantly brightened up the entire living room.
Luther had a dark expression on his face, this troubleslittle puppy had cback. It was hard enough to send Kane away to
Mufron, but now he was back again. He subconsciously held Joyce tighter in his arms. He naturally had a guard up against younger
competitors, especially someone like Kane, with a top-notch background and abilities. What he cared most about was that during
the four years Joyce had been by his side, Kane was the one who accompanied her the most. They started a business together, and
Kane even helped Joyce through the toughest days, watching Anderson grow up. These were the things he envied the most. Just
the sight of Kane reminded him of his foolishness in the past. Like a mirror, constantly reflecting on him.
Joyce's beautiful eyes shimmered, then she smiled, "Why didn't you tellin advance that you were coming, | could have sent
someone to pick you up at the airport."
Feeling Luther tightening his arms, she found it funny that he was possessive, but she didn't stop him, she knew his thoughts.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtKane blinked, "Telling you in advance would spoil the surprise. Look, | brought you something good!"
With that, Kane took out an exquisite blue velvet box from his pocket, very high-end.
Joyce was about to take it.
Luther snatched it away, opened it in front of Joyce.
Inside the velvet box, there lay a pendant encrusted with green diamonds in the shape of a revolver, exquisite and valuable
because green diamonds were rare and expensive.
Joyce exclaimed, "Wow, so unique."
"How is it? Do you like it? | had it meticulously crafted for you, | hired top craftsmen and it took two months to make. It not only
suits your style but is also one-of-a-kind. This is my wedding gift to you." Kane looked proud.
Luther's face darkened, "It's my business to give her jewelry, you don't need to worry about it. Keep this gift and give it to someone
else."
With that, he closed the velvet box and handed it back to Kane.
Kane's face stiffened, Luther's guard against him was too obvious, almost written on his face. Did he really need to be so wary? He
had been exiled to Mufron for so long, and Luther still didn't trust him?
Joyce smiled awkwardly, took the velvet box back from Kane.
And she pouted at Luther, "He meant well, it's just a pendant.”
Luther's jealousy was too much, and to make matters worse, Anderson and Iris were present. It made her both angry and amused.
Kane was younger than her, and he was here for the wedding, she couldn't understand why Luther was making an issue out of this.
If Justin were here, he would have gone crazy. Even Christian, she didn't dare inform him.
"Well-intentioned?" Luther's voice was displeased, "Are you sure it's well-intentioned for a man to give a woman jewelry?"
At this moment, Anderson emerged from behind Kane to diffuse the awkward atmosphere, "Dad, this is a special pendant."
Kane snorted, "Yeah, | haven't finished introducing it, why are you so impatient?"
Joyce opened the box, took out the pendant again, and examined it carefully.
Luther raised an eyebrow and glanced at it.
Iris was even more curious and approached, "What's different? Letsee."
"Children shouldn't meddle. The less you know, the better." Anderson forcefully pulled Iris away, "Mom, Dad, Uncle Kane, I'll take
my sister to play first. You guys can chat."
With that, Anderson dragged Iris upstairs and disappeared around the corner of the stairs.
Iris grumbled unhappily, "Aren't you a child too? How can you talk about me?"
Luther asked, "Kane, why are you here with Anderson and Iris?"
"Hehe. Because I've always kept in touch with Anderson. The first thing | did after getting off the plane was go straight to
Anderson's school. Then | followed Aaron's car and cback with them." Kane looked even more proud, "I've watched Anderson
grow up since he was a child, we have a deep bond, so it's normal forto see him first after getting off the plane."
Luther, "..."
Damn Kane was flaunting his achievements both overtly and covertly.
Joyce didn't pay attention to the banter between the two men and carefully studied the pendant in the shape of a pistol.
Suddenly, she exclaimed, "This is a miniature communicator! No! Not just a communicator, but also a pinhole camera."
"Yes!" Kane clapped his hands lightly, "How is it? You can't tell until you examine it closely."
Luther then took the pendant back from Joyce again, carefully examining it. If you were unfamiliar, you would not be able to tell.
"How did you do this?" he asked, "What specific functions does it have?"
Kane looked even more pleased as he introduced, "This is my latest creation. Letshow you."
Kane lightly pressed the clasp of the pendant, and before their eyes, a small floating visual frappeared, not very large, only
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmthe size of a single eyeglass lens.
"This pendant is unique, it has a pinhole camera function connected to my main device. Through the pinhole camera, | can see
everything in front of you. It also has holographic projection and voice control capabilities, and I've implanted the latest artificial
intelligence system. This means, the user only needs to give voice commands, and the floating visual frin front of their eyes
can satisfy basic information queries. | can also project the information | find onto the floating visual frfor communication.
Aside from images, sound can also be transmitted." Kane introduced one by one, "Waterproof, resistant to electromagnetic
interference, metal detector-proof. It can bypass all security checks."
"Amazing!" Joyce lifted her head and admired, "No wonder it took you two months to make this pendant."
At this moment, Luther's expression softened a bit. If it was for Joyce's safety, he naturally wouldn't object.
"Sis, with this pendant, once you activate the button, we can contact each other anytime. | can also help you investigate any
information you want to know and relay it back to you." Kane raised an eyebrow, "Are you satisfied with my gift?"
Joyce put the pendant away, smiled lightly, "Thank you, it will cin handy."
Luther didn't say anything more, "Since you're here, I'll arrange your accommodation. We'll gather tonight, and tomorrow we'll set
off for South Island. You can also help check the communication devices on the island."
Kane snapped his fingers, "OK."
