Wesley rolled his eyes. “Mr. Lynch claims that his ex-wife isn’t dead and that he’s still waiting for her to return, but it’s been so many years now. I think it’s safe to say that she isn’t coming back anymore.”He continued, “If in a couple more years Mr. Lynch gets tired of waiting for her and wants to remarry, Courtney will be his first choice for sure!”Luna’s lips twisted into a smile and said nothing in response. She could not understand why Wesley was so confident in his prediction, yet at the same time, it was not too far-fetched either. Even if Joshua changed his mind and wanted to marry someone who looked like the past Luna, it was none of her business anymore. The only thing she had in mind was to get pregnant and give birth to Joshua’s child so she could cure Nigel.While Luna was deep in thought, the elevator arrived on the 18th floor.Wesley cleared his throat and led Luna into the department. “Hello, everyone, I’d like to introduce you to a new member of our compan
Perhaps Luna’s gaze was too intense. Joshua, from his office, looked up and noticed her eyes.Their gazes met.Her gaze shifted from dazed to startled, while his changed from shock to aloofness. They looked at each other for a long time before Courtney realized that something was off.She looked up and saw Luna.“That is Luna,” Courtney introduced to Joshua. “When I was in the elevator just now, I saw Mr. Fisher leading her to the department of design to report.”She then smiled gently. “Ms. Luna is very gorgeous. Her beauty mesmerized me in the elevator just now.”Courtney’s words made Joshua furrow his brows. He shifted his gaze from Luna and turned to look at Courtney.“You still haven’t explained yourself. I instructed Lucas to get me a new male secretary.”How did the male secretary become a female in a day’s time? She even looked like Luna Gibson, no less.Courtney must have known very well everything that happened. Courtney’s face turned a little pale. She lowered
Joshua found it comical. “I thought that you didn’t want to serve anybody anymore when you quit your job as my servant at Blue Bay Villa, yet here you are, at my company’s department of design, serving my employees?”Luna smiled without saying a word. “This is Mr. Lynch’s request, so it’s natural that I had to obey.”“You’ll do whatever I say?”“Of course.” Luna smiled. She looked up at Joshua, her eyes rather seductive. “When Mr. Lynch told me not to move, not once have I moved. Do you still remember, Mr. Lynch?” she spoke meaningfully.Joshua’s eyes narrowed as he looked into her beguiling eyes.He could not seem to resist her seduction. Courtney had a similar face to Luna Gibson, more so than Luna, yet he barely reacted to her.Unable to avert himself from Luna’s gaze, he lowered his head, irritated. He randomly flipped through the proposals as he glanced through.“Have you gone through them?” he questioned as he skimmed through the proposals with furrowed brows.Luna knew
“Too bad I still failed.”Luna looked at Joshua with a small smile. “I overestimated your love for your ex-wife. I used to hear others talk about how much you loved Luna Gibson, but it was only after I got close to you did I realize…”Luna looked at him with a cold gaze. “You don’t love her as much as the rumors say.”Joshua furrowed his brows. His tone was frigid. “Just because you have served me for a few days, you think you have the right to question me?”“Of course.” Luna smiled gracefully. “I’ve once served Mr. Lynch. I’ll admit that I look nothing like Luna Gibson, but you still did the unspeakable to me, didn’t you, Mr. Lynch?”Her words instantly brought Joshua back to that wild night.Joshua’s expressions darkened. He frowned hard. That night…she looked so much like Luna Gibson. Too much alike.If it were not for her face, he would even think that they were the same person, but the truth was…Joshua smiled a little. “What I did when I was drunk isn’t worth you recall
It was that one night after work that Luna, out of sheer hunger, groggily got up and unwrapped the box of snacks to munch on.It turned out that she accidentally unwrapped the gift that she gave Joshua and took a bite on the pen.She initially thought Joshua would despise the pen, but she did not expect that Joshua would put the pen in his shirt pocket. “A pen with a bite mark. It’s quite special. Thank you.”He was gentle and kind back then, and she fell hard for him.From then onward, she would chase after his every step, not caring if anyone objected. She had to marry him. Luna knew he never liked her once. She thought that she could melt his cold heart with her fervent passion.Alas, he remained aloof to her feelings.Luna was perplexed. Only she and he knew the origin of this pen. That meant if he threw this pen away, no one would realize that his love for his ex-wife was fake. Why had he kept this pen all along? He even used it…“Ms. Luna.” Joshua’s voice suddenly brou
Everyone secretly eyed Luna from the corner of their eyes when she returned to the design department, trying to see the disappointment on her face after their president reprimanded her. However, there were none.Luna calmly carried the pile of documents back to her desk.Bonnie, next to Luna, pushed up her glasses as she looked at Luna carefully. “Did the proposal go through?” Looking at Luna, she did not look like she got scolded.It was worth mentioning that a few designers had gone to the president’s office and came back with a scolding before Luna went.Some with a fragile ego went in with full confidence only to come back in tears.According to rumors, Joshua, the president, would never lose his temper. He would only use his deadly cold glares. It was so terrifying they would automatically admit to their mistakes.Every lady who went to the president’s office swore that they would never head back there again.However, Luna looked…Was it because the proposal had been a
However, not only was Shannon not embarrassed by it, but she was proud?Luna finally understood why such a simple jewelry design proposal needed to be amended at least five times and more.It seemed that the designers in the design department…had no heart in designing.“You’re amazing.” Once Luna returned to her desk, Bonnie smiled and passed Luna a piece of gum.“You’re the only one in our department that never got scolded by the president nor intimidated half to death. You even brought back a piece of paper with the president’s handwriting! It looks like you won’t be an intern for much longer!” Luna did not know whether to laugh or cry. She stuffed the piece of gum into her mouth. “You’re joking.” “I’m not! Our president is famous for being strict. No one would dare to approach him. The president of other companies would have the opportunity to be in a relationship with their female employees, but our president? He only has eyes for his ex-wife. The HR department has constant
Luna was suddenly asked to copy a document of more than 10,000 words by hand.She was startled when she received the document. It was not a document related to jewelry design or the rules of the design department.They were the company’s rules and regulations, and there were at least 20,000 words.Shannon dropped the document in front of her, gave her some instructions, and left.“Hand it in before you leave for the day.” “Wow.” Bonnie pushed her glasses and calculated. “You have about twenty thousand words. Besides lunch break, you have another five hours left. You have to write at least sixty words per minute.” It was an impossible task! Bonnie kept her phone away. “Strange. You did nothing wrong today, and the president didn’t even scold you. Why is the director making things difficult for you?” Luna calmly searched for a pen and paper to start writing. “Perhaps it was the president who asked me to do this.” She smiled flatly. When she came out of Shannon’s room a mo
