“I’m sure you don’t know this, Bonnie, but this is my uncle, President Lynch’s father!”At those words, Bonnie’s expressions immediately changed.Shannon took the opportunity to continue with her attacks. “My uncle is unhappy that a woman like Luna seduced the president, so he got angry. Did she not deserve that slap? Should she not apologize?”“She should…” Upon Bonnie’s words, everyone agreed in a soft tone.That man was President Lynch’s father! They could not afford to offend him! Bonnie was shocked, too.After a while, she bit her lip. “Here I thought that a powerful person like President Lynch would have a family that’s well-mannered and cultured. Who knew…”Adrian looked at least 50-years-old, but just because his son got together with Luna, he came and slapped her?“More like a shrew…”Bonnie’s words struck Shannon’s nerves. “Who are you calling, uncultured and a shrew?! Bonnie, this has nothing to do with you. How dare you insult President Lynch’s family!”“Presiden
Shannon was infuriated. “Uncle, you’re joking right?”Why should she give up the Design Director position to this b*tch? Adrian should be on her side. He hated Luna as well, but why did he not only not fire or demote her, but he promoted her instead?Who is the crazier one? “I’m not joking.” Adrian calmly looked at Shannon. “Give her your place.”Work is work, it has nothing to do with private matters.Even if he were to demote or fire Luna, it would not affect Luna and Joshua’s relationship too much.On the contrary, the Lynch Group would have lost a world-renowned designer.Moreover, it was Adrian himself who got Luna to work for the Lynch Group. It was hard for him to take back his words at that moment.The best solution was to let Luna work for the Lynch Group while cutting down her interest in Joshua! At that thought, Adrian turned to look at Shannon once more. “You’re unwilling to do so?”“Of course, I’m unwilling!” Shannon panicked. She immediately stood in between
This woman only knew how to boast! However, when they saw Luna sketching the outline of the jewelry, also looking at her mastered sketching technique and her unique sense of composition, everyone was stunned.At that moment, the entire office was so quiet there were only sounds of Luna’s sketching on the paper.Everyone was looking at her sketch seriously.Joshua too.He looked at Luna’s hands. His gaze got deeper and darkened.Luna Gibson’s figure inexplicably appeared in his mind.Back then, Luna Gibson loved to sketch too. She always liked to sit in a sunny room with the window open and let the breeze blow the curtains behind her.She sat in front of a sketch board and started drawing with her naturally skilled technique.She liked to draw many things. The flowers at home or the scenery outside, but mostly, she loved to draw him.His side profile, his eyebrows.He has hidden in the far corner countless times, just like what he was doing at that moment, looking at her ske
“Yes.”Luna lifted her head, and smiled. “Mr. Lynch, are you surprised?”Joshua frowned hard.The next second, he immediately reached his hand out and grabbed Luna by the wrist. He seemed to have gone mad. He grabbed her by the wrist and dragged her out of the design department. They did not even take the elevator. He brutally pulled her all the upstairs to the top floor.Luna’s body was like a broken puppet, being dragged and tugged by him.When they reached the top floor, she was spent. She did not have any strength left in her.She bent down and supported herself with her hand on her knee, gasping for air. “Joshua Lynch, have you gone mad?”“I am mad! I'm going mad because of you!” Joshua pulled Luna into his office.Slam! Once the door was slammed shut, Luna’s back violently hit the door of the office.Joshua’s gaze was filled with fury at that moment.He violently looked at Luna. “You knew Luna Gibson, did you not? You were Nellie’s teacher when she was overseas!
“Impossible, impossible!”Joshua strangled Luna. “You’re lying!”He was extremely strong. He choked Luna so hard her voice was distorted. “Joshua Lynch, you’re mad!”“You’re the mad one!” Joshua glared at her with reddened eyes. “If not, how could you say such things!”Knock! Knock! Just when Luna was about to be choked to death by Joshua, someone knocked on the door behind her.Bang! The office door was slammed open.Standing outside were Zach and Yuri. Behind them were Neil and Nellie.Once the door was open, Luna instantly broke free of Joshua. She slumped onto the ground, clutching her neck, and gasping for air.Joshua, who was blinded by rage, started to come to his senses after this commotion.He remained on the spot. He looked at Luna, then looked at the two children outside. This was the first time he felt rather helpless. He did not know what he should do.“Aunty!”Seeing how bad Luna looked, Nellie rushed over madly. She buried herself in Luna’s arms. “Are you
“Aura’s child?”Joshua furrowed his brows hard. “Since when does she have a child?”“Joshua, what is the point of continuing the pretense at this stage?” Luna looked at that pretentious face. Her gaze got colder. “If it wasn’t because Aura got pregnant, Luna would never have decided to leave.”Looking at Luna talking nonsense, Joshua found it ridiculous.“You’re trying to say that not only Aura has been pregnant, but she also bore my child, is it? You’re also trying to say that because Aura has my child, that was why Luna decided to leave me?”“Isn’t it?”Luna saw the mockery in Joshua’s eyes. Her heart was in so much pain it was as if someone brutally stabbed her! Why would this man still pretend to be innocent even at this stage?Back then, she and Aura got pregnant at the same time. In order to please Aura, he came up with an accident to kill her.They even came up with a fake will to defame her for having an affair after her death.At that moment, she has already openly
“Nope.”Neil looked up and looked at the two tall men by the entrance. “Are you two not going to eat?”“Don’t worry about us, Boss. Go ahead and eat with the little princess first.”Yuri smiled cheekily at Neil. “The things you two are talking about are so secretive, it would be bad if someone overheard you.”Zach also nodded. “Don’t worry, if we’re here, no one would be able to overhear what you’re talking about.”“See.” Neil looked at Nellie smugly. “I still have people who like me.”Nellie pouted and said nothing.After a while, she sighed a little. “I miss Nigel.”Neil’s hand which was holding a spoon paused a little.Nigel…Neil sighed and said, “We will find a way.”…Joshua arranged lunch at the company’s cafeteria.When he held Luna’s hand and entered the cafeteria, Luna felt that it was magical.She thought that Joshua would at least bring her to a more romantic and cozy restaurant downstairs.The cafeteria… was a place which she used to like when she was younge
“It does seem like love at first sight indeed…”The reporter cleared his throat. “So who pursued who first?”Joshua looked at Luna. He wanted to say something, but Luna was one step ahead.She smiled at the reporter and looked at the camera. “I pursued him first, but when I pursued him, I did not care about his status, background, nor his wealth. I only cared about the person. For him, I was willing to give everything. Even if I knew that he does not have me in his heart, I was willing to do it just for a sliver of hope. I was willing to go up against the world. I don’t care if people say that I’m a gold-digger. I don’t care if my family objects to this relationship. I only care that he likes me. A slim hope.”Joshua pursed his lips at her words.From her almost perfect side profile, he somehow saw Luna Gibson.Back then, Luna Gibson had indeed made many decisions that no one could understand to marry him.Her parents, relatives, and friends were all in Sea City.She was willin
