"If you want to talk about beefs…"Heather looked up and laid her eyes on Gwen, who was next to Luna. "I did have a small altercation with Luna's friend."Gwen instantly frowned upon Heather's words."What do you mean by that? Heather Landry, are you trying to say that I deliberately hurt Luna's mother to frame you?"Gwen harrumphed coldly and said, "If I dislike you, why do I need to hurt others to frame you? I'll just choke you to death!"Gwen knew better than anyone else how important Rosalyn was to Luna, yet Heather was trying to frame her!Looking at Gwen's reaction, Heather could not help but cross her arms at her chest and sneer. "Choke me? You, a nobody? Without Luke Jones' help, you won't even be able to defeat a starving beggar on the streets."Gwen was so infuriated that she gritted her teeth."Stop it!" Right when both women were at a tense stand-off, Malcolm took a deep breath and finally opened his mouth. He pulled Jim over and pointed at the break in the time-lap
The entire room was instantly in silence.Luna looked at the servants in front of her in disbelief. She looked at the servants kneeling on the ground, yet their voices seemed to come from far away."Vivian, say it one more time. Who came here yesterday?"The servant named Vivian lowered her head even more. "J—Joshua Lynch." Vivian bit her lip and toughened herself up. "Every one of us received bribes from Joshua, so no one wanted to admit it, including… Including the security in the surveillance footage room. They received bribes from Joshua to delete the footage of his appearance…"By the time she said that, Vivian's entire body was almost on the ground. She took out a bank card from her pockets, handing it to Luna with both hands."Joshua said that there is a hundred thousand in this card… Every one of us received the same card…"Luna stood on the spot and almost lost her balance.The lights above her became extremely glaring, and her brain hurt as if it was pricked by needl
"You two still refuse to believe that Joshua was the one that hurt Rosalyn?"Jim narrowed his eyes, not saying anything. Luna's head hurt. The words Mickey told her that night appeared in her mind.She closed her eyes as despair washed over her. From the moment she knew that her mother was the main culprit in killing Granny Lynch, she knew that Joshua would never let it go easily.However, she did not expect that he would bribe all the staff in her house while she was gone and do such a cruel thing to her!He was bullying a person in a vegetative state! He should have just stabbed her instead! Jim lowered his and sighed slowly.When she saw them not talking, Heather was extremely smug. She sneered and said, "Thank goodness we found out about Mom early tonight. Otherwise…"Heather's gaze turned sharp and looked at Luna."You'll be the person to blame! Mom had been doing well at Landry Mansion, yet you were the one who insisted you wanted to care for her, sending her to this g
The documents that Malcolm gave Luna was an agreement of equity transfer.The agreement stated that to help the Landrys during the time of crisis, Luna was willing to take out all the shares and properties that her parents had left for her, and work together with the Landrys to go through these difficult times.Looking at the agreement and the amount that Malcolm demanded from Luna, Luna's hand could not help but tremble.She still remembered what Rosalyn told her when she first returned to the Landrys. Back then, it was because Charles lost Luna, making her live alone outside for more than 20 years. The Landrys owed it to Luna. Thus, Rosalyn and Charles agreed to take out a portion of the inheritance for Luna as compensation.However, Luna refused at that point. She was willing to return to the Landry family because of her strong connection with Rosalyn, not because of the Landrys' money.However, she never expected that Charles and Rosalyn had truly left the lump sum for her. Th
He never would have thought that Charles would be so careless…Jim's silence explained everything. With the agreement in her hands, Luna hesitated for a very long time. Finally, she took a deep breath, lifted her head, and looked at Malcolm and Heather closely."I'll agree to sign this agreement." Malcolm and Heather's eyes were filled with utter delight.Their intention that night was only to accuse Joshua and drive a wedge between Luna and Joshua. Malcolm was planning to get Luna to sign only after Rosalyn's death. A moment ago, Malcolm went with the flow and improvised on the spot, not knowing that Luna would agree to him. It was a delightful surprise! "Luna." Compared to Malcolm and Heather's excitement, Jim furrowed his brows."Don't be reckless. Have you ever thought that if you were to give them all the assets, it still won't stop Joshua's attacks against the Landry Group? The Landry Group will truly have nothing left by then."At that moment, even if the Landry Group
Malcolm and Heather were stunned.Even Jim was stunned, too, as he looked at the aloof-looking Luna. She somehow seemed like a stranger to him.A few months ago, she was the little sister that needed his protection.A few weeks ago, she grieved terribly for her lost child.However, at that moment, the woman in front of him was filled with aloofness and calmness. Jim wanted to applaud her. He saw the greatness of Rosalyn in her, back when Rosalyn was overseeing the Landry family.Seeing Malcolm's and Heather's pale faces, Luna took a deep breath and smiled."But, since you brought this up in front of Mom, let me formally tell you my thoughts too. As I said, I'll sign the agreement, taking the assets out to help the Landry Group, but on a few conditions."Luna changed to a more comfortable position."First."She pointed at Heather. "You and your people. Those that haven't contributed to the Landry Group for the past six months have to leave. They can no longer partake in any of
What right did Luna have?!Previously, Heather only knew that Charles had money which he did not take out for the company. She wanted to slowly take them from him while he was sick! It was only until that day she found out that Charles and Rosalyn froze almost half of the Landry Group's assets for Luna!What right did Luna have, just because she was their biological daughter?Luna was not the one staying with them for more than 20 years. She was the one! She was the one calling them Mom and Dad! Charles kept complaining that Luna and Jim were terrible children, but what did he do behind his back?Not only did he hand over the Landry Mansion and Swan Lake Chalet to Jim, but he even gave Luna half of the Landry Group's assets! She had been taking care and serving Charles every day, yet she received nothing! The more Heather thought, the angrier she got. It was unfair! Thus, when Luna had left the door, Heather took a deep breath, grabbed the switchblade in her pocket, and r
"Why wouldn't I dare to show myself?" After wrapping up his wound, Joshua shot Jim and Malcolm a cold glance and said, "If I didn't come, then I'd be framed as a cold-hearted, cruel man."Jim could not help furrowing his brows when he heard this. "Framed? You tried to kill my mother, and we have concrete evidence to support this, so how can you say someone is trying to frame you? Who is doing that?"It's already so late at night, and yet Joshua still found out about what's going on here, so who is the person spying for him?"Malcolm quickly helped Heather up, who had been tackled onto the ground by Luke. She rubbed her sore body and screamed at Luna, "Was it you? You knew that Joshua's scheme had been foiled, so you contacted him and asked him to come here and claim that someone had framed him, didn't you?"Luna, your entire mind is filled with thoughts of Joshua Lynch, so much so that you don't even care about the vengeance between both our families. Your mother was almost kille
