Samuel harshly continued, all while he glared at Malcolm's face remotely, "Do you truly think I have no idea about what you intend to do? Ever since you knew that there was something special about Riley's origin, you've been planning to stir up the contradiction between Joshua and that person. If I hadn't stopped you, you would've brought that person here to fight against Joshua. Am I right?"That was a very sharp and brutal question. Malcolm squinted and did not answer."How many times have I told you this? Don't try to go against Joshua! Even if that person becomes his enemy, do you think you could get away from all that scot-free? Your consequences will only be more dreadful than Hunter being stuck between two strong opponents. Why don't you just understand?" Samuel was heartbroken by how brainless Malcolm was.He stared at Malcolm with disappointment. "You even tried to instigate them by shooting a video. Luckily, Joshua was alert and stopped your plan."Leave. Leave now!"He
After Malcolm left, Luna kept the memory cards that Lucas had retrieved and watched every single video on them. Anger rose in her like a tide as she snarled to herself how vicious of a man Malcolm was.In the past, Luna had thought that Malcolm was just cowardly and foolish. At this moment, however, she finally realized that Malcolm was the same person from seven years ago; a man filled with schemes, that everything he did was only for his gain.It was difficult for Luna to imagine what kind of disaster Joshua and her would have faced if the untruthful videos leaked out. Fortunately, Joshua was smart to think ahead of what Malcolm was planning when the nurse informed them that someone was causing trouble at the ICU where Riley was resting.Otherwise…She started to feel pity for herself when she thought of how she had been bullied by people on the internet at one point."What happened?" Looking at Luna's pale face, Joshua walked over and extended his hand to grab Luna's small hand
It never occurred to Luna that Father Samuel was so firm and resolute. 'Kicking Malcolm out of the city?'All these years, Malcolm had built his network and reputation solely in Merchant City, and the moment he exited the city, he would have nothing left and would need to start from scratch. Even if he had any leverage or information, a no-name like him would not be able to cause any big problem.Having that thought in her mind, Luna sighed. "After all the things he did, he deserved it. Let's hope he'll be a better person in the future."Although it was cruel to kick Malcolm out of the city, it would be crueler to Luna and Joshua if Malcolm stayed."There's nothing to worry about anymore." Joshua kissed Luna's ear. "The Quinn family will make sure that Malcolm stays away from the city. We have a more urgent matter to deal with now—Butler Fred and Mickey."Luna sighed again when Joshua mentioned those two men. "Alright. I'll listen to you."In the past, she had been getting hersel
While Luna was drinking the coffee that Joshua brewed for her, she was searching the internet about Thomas Gerald.Luna asked, [When were you ever into superstars? How come I never knew about it?]Luna had known Anne for over six years, and it was the same woman who helped with Luna's first plastic surgery. After that, Luna required more and more plastic surgeries, and Anne's ability was limited. Nevertheless, she was humble to seek advice. From then on, she had been learning more knowledge and skills from the professional plastic surgeon in the industry with the excuse of taking care of Luna and as Luna's best friend.Slowly, Luna's impression of Anne changed from a plastic surgeon to a girl who was willing to work hard. During the darkest moment in Luna's life, Anne was there to give her comfort and warmth. As such, Luna always thought that she understood Anne very well, which was why it puzzled her to hear Anne had started to admire Thomas Gerald, an international superstar.Lun
Although Luna was unclear what was the situation between Thomas Gerald and his family, based on the information from Anne, she had no good impression of this international superstar at all.As such, she silently closed the search result on the computer and changed the topic of her conversation with Anne, which she noticed.She knew Luna was slightly older than her and had been through a lot more than her. Thus, she did not force Luna to admire the same thing as she did. However…[Anne: I saw Shannon, Zayne, Samson, and your assistant, Arianna the other day.][Anne: They said they were ready to go work with you again in Merchant City, but it seemed like something happened at your end. That's why they didn't go and are still waiting for you.][Anne: When are you going to continue with your career, getting back on track?]Luna turned silent when she saw that message.Anne was right. When she went back to Banyan City, she wanted to get Shannon, Zayne, and Samson to come and help her
Luna did not think much about what the nanny said.She gazed at the adorable infant sleeping soundly with her eyes shut, and a smile appeared on her face. "They do look similar, but…" She curled up her lips and looked at the nanny. "Shelly is the daughter of a relative from my brother's side of the family."Previously, Bonnie had tested Shelly's DNA when she brought Harvey to do the paternity test. Shelly's parents were related to Jim, but Luna did not know who they were. Since Shelly was related to Jim, that meant Shelly was somehow related to her or Joshua, hence it was normal for Shelly to look like Nellie.Maybe that was why Shelly also looked similar to Joshua. Perhaps Shelly was related to Joshua, too.The nanny was slightly disappointed with Luna's answer. She sighed and started to collect the toys on the floor. "I've been hearing Nigel, Neil, and Nellie mention that not only do you and Mr. Lynch need to take care of Ms. Shelly, but you also need to take care of the little g
It was rather mean of Luna to chastise the nanny for saying her thoughts as she had said it all with the best intention. Thus, Luna cast the nanny a gentle gaze. "What's your name? How long have you been working here?"Lucas was the one who hired the nanny to look after Shelly and Riley. Since every nanny was different and the children had their preferences, the nanny in their house constantly changed.However, Luna vaguely remembered this nanny had been working in the house for quite some time."My last name is Flores, Ma'am, but you can call me Mrs. Flores. I've been working for more than a week," answered Flores.Luna nodded and smiled at her. "Mrs. Flores, you say? I'll remember that. I'll tell Lucas to give you a raise. You've done a good job."Flores thought that she had upset Luna, but she was thrilled to hear Luna giving her a raise. "Thank you, Ma'am. Thank you so much!"Luna smiled upon seeing how happy Flores was. Just as she was about to say something, however, the na
Although Rosalyn had never specifically said it, Luna knew that Rosalyn trusted Butler Fred and Mickey a great deal. Otherwise, she would never allow Mickey to manage the most precious warehouse where she stored her poisons in.However, the things that Fred and Mickey did only placed Rosalyn at the heart of the fire. There were times Luna felt that somehow, both men knew what Charlotte was planning all along when she had lied to her, wanting her to help locate the poison. That was why they let her and Charlotte obtain the poison so easily.Based on Fred and Mickey's level of perceptiveness, they could not have located the poison so easily. However, Luna dreaded to know her baby's location and did not think carefully about the logic behind it.Thinking back at it, maybe Fred and Mickey knew it all along. They knew that Charlotte was using her and also knew that Charlotte wanted to get her hands on the poison to remove Jim's memory so he could be Charlotte's puppet.According to Char
