“I’ll only take a few minutes of your time.”Luna frowned. “I’m not here to put in a good word for her, I’m here to explain the misunderstanding I caused.”“You…”When they were talking, the crowd had already reached the entrance to the elevators.John scoffed and entered the elevator immediately.Luna had no choice but to follow him upstairs.In the elevator, she was afraid John would run away, so she unconsciously held onto his sleeve, lowered her voice and said, “Listen, I can explain…”The minute the words left her mouth, a man’s condescending voice rang beside her, “John, why would you bring your woman to a business dinner?”Another man laughed, “I heard you just got a new girlfriend a few days ago, a young, pretty girl who’s never been in a relationship before, is this her?”“You’re so lucky, not only is your girlfriend pretty, she’s so needy too.”John opened his mouth to explain but did not know how to.In the end, he could only pull Luna’s hand off of his sleeve har
“What do you really want to say?”After closing the door to the stairwell, John shook off Luna's hand. "Don't explain, don't try to lie to me! With an easy woman like you as a friend, Anne can't be that clean herself!"Luna rolled her eyes.If it were not for Anne’s countless tears for this man, she really wanted to beat him up!She suppressed her anger. "Mr. Young, I don't know which remote, deserted island you grew up in, you’re so close-minded. I linked my arm through yours because I just wanted to force your hand in front of your colleagues, and force you to come over and listen to my explanation. I didn't kiss you or sleep with you, and you say I’m casual? Haven’t you ever been in contact with the opposite sex growing up? Besides, if it wasn't for Anne, that loyal fool who is still crying for you at home, do you think I would come and see you?"When Luna said that Anne was still crying, a hint of worry appeared on John's face. "Is she... still crying?"It's been seven hours
“Even if I can’t, are you in the mood to discuss business now?”“Room number 402, I leave it up to you!”With that, he turned around and almost flew as he rushed downstairs.Looking at his retreating back, Luna sighed faintly.To be honest… she was quite envious of a relationship like this.Even though John still left her a bad image, but he could not pay attention to his work because of Anne, he was even willing to forgo making new business to go see her.And what about she, herself?The person she liked the most when she was younger, his career always came first, regardless of whether she was sick and having a fever or lonely and helpless.In his heart, she was nothing compared to his work, his career, and even lesser when compared to Aura. She remained in the stairway for a little while longer, then after Luna organized all the frenzy and messed up thoughts in her head, she sucked in a deep breath, turned and returned to the corridor.The corridor that was packed just a m
“Ms. Luna, you can really handle your alcohol.”In room number 402, Luna had just finished her sixth glass of the day.She set down the wineglass, leaned on the table with her cheek in her hand and licked seductively at the remaining wine gathered at the corners of her lips. She looked charmingly at the big, fat man beside her and said, “Director Wilson, you promised, if I drink another glass, you would sign the contract. Such a big boss like you, you wouldn’t lie to a little woman like me, right?”Her tone lifted upwards slightly, purring like a kitten, incredibly seductive.Hearing her talk to him like that, Director Wilson almost forgot his own identity.The beauty already put it that way, how could he forgo his promise now? “I’ll sign, I’ll sign!”Director Wilson immediately reached out and grabbed the contract out of the manager’s hands. “I’ll sign right now!”The men present were all stunned.To win this deal, they had tried all the methods they could think of.They ha
“Of course not.”Luna smiled. “I like older men.”With that, the door behind her was opened.Everyone else in the room looked in surprise in the direction of the open door, but none of them dared to say a single word.However, Luna and Director Wilson were focused on tricking each other and did not notice the new development behind them at all.Director Wilson smiled as he drank the wine Luna handed to him. “Who is more handsome, me or your old lover?”Luna rolled her eyes in her mind, this old man was shameless indeed.She laughed lightly and said, “Of course you’re better looking.”Her eyes flashed and she thought of a way to scare off the old man.“Even though I play around with a lot of men, none of them are worth a mention.”With that, the air in the room turned terrifyingly cold.But Luna continued finishing her words as planned. “Especially the one yesterday, sick and ugly…”At the entrance, Lucas looked on as his boss’ expression turned darker and darker, finally, w
The moment the words left his mouth, the entire room fell silent.Everyone’s gazes flitted dumbly to Luna and Joshua.The meaning behind his words was obvious. Luna just said the last man she slept with was ugly, dirty, and sick, and Joshua oh-so suddenly asked her what sickness he had…Director Wilson took a step back in shock. “Mr. Lynch, you… You must be joking, right?”Everyone in the entire Banyan City knew Joshua Lynch was a clean and upright man, loyal to his ex-wife Luna Gibson.When she was still alive, he never attended any drinking events where women were present because he was worried she would get the wrong ideas. After she passed away, he drank so much to the point his stomach bled. Plus, to protect her sister, he remained engaged with Aura for many years.At the birthday party two days ago, he even announced that he got word Luna Gibson was still alive, so he wanted to break off the engagement with Aura and look for Luna Gibson.The past few days, the entire inter
The car door slammed shut with a bang, closing them off from the outside world.Luna felt like her head had exploded.She exerted all of her strength and struggled against Joshua. “Let go of me!”“Didn’t you say I was sick?” He turned vicious, locking her down securely. “If I didn’t spread my sickness to you today, how could I live up to the defamatory labels you stuck on my back?”He managed to know it all that night, but what if he did not? Would she take it a step further, making up tales about him while flirting with other men?At the thought of the scene that greeted his eyes, his gaze turned cold as he pressed her hands to the top of her head.Luna gritted her teeth and wanted to put up a fight, but her rational mind told her she should not.She should cooperate with him; Nigel’s illness needed her to provide a cure…At that thought, she made up her mind as she abruptly lifted her lips in a light, airy laugh. “What’s wrong, Mr. Lynch? Can’t you control yourself anymore?
Luna’s anger still sizzled in the pit of her stomach as she stepped out of the taxi. It was by chance that she saw Neil sitting near the flower bed at the entrance to their housing area, seemingly talking on the phone. She frowned and approached him. “Why aren’t you home?”The little boy shrugged. “Godmother and her boyfriend are acting all sweet and lovey-dovey. I don’t want to be the third wheel.”With that, he glanced at Luna silently. “Mommy, do you want to go upstairs and be the third wheel?”Luna was mum for a moment before she cleared her throat. “How long have they been up there?”“Around half an hour.”Neil sighed. “Mommy, do you think we can still spend the night at Godmother’s house tonight? I saw her crying in her boyfriend’s arms just now, and both of them were laughing and crying.”He switched to a more comfortable position and swung his short little legs in the air. “Are dating adults so emotional?”Luna rolled her eyes at him. “You won’t understand.”Anne and
