Theo smiled. “I wasn’t planning on letting you go help her clear her name.”He yawned and turned to sit on the sofa. He looked at Luna calmly. “Just now you called to talk about Natasha and Joseph’s problem. I went to their place to have a look. Initially, I wanted to help them, according to what you say, to get a better place to stay in the name of charity. Guess what I saw?”Luna furrowed her brows. She stopped what she was doing and looked at Theo.“I saw Joseph going to Blue Bay Villa. Not long after coming back from Blue Bay Villa, he was taken away by the ambulance. I casually followed them to Central Hospital. After a few rounds of socializing, the nurse secretly told me the truth.”Luna paused for a while. “How is he?”“He’s faking it,” Theo chuckled, “he is still doing great. He was faking the stroke.”Luna shut her eyes and laughed bitterly.She knew it. In the end, Natasha and Joseph were still only thinking about themselves.“So why did you still promise Natasha?”
Joshua looked at Luna’s nervous face. He could not help but think back to her look the night before.He calmed himself down and smiled. “Don’t worry, the incident last night won’t happen.”Luna glared at him. “You’re not welcome.”Joshua leaned back on the sofa confidently. “What if I take Neil and Nellie over?”Neil and Nellie.Luna has not seen them for almost a week. Although the two of them would secretly call them every night, hearing their voice and meeting them were two different things. Furthermore, they almost fell sick the night before…At that thought, Luna glared at Joshua coldly. “Because of Neil and Nellie, I’ll reluctantly welcome you.”…After making an appointment with Joshua to have dinner at home in the evening, Luna accelerated her work.As soon as it was the end of the day, she packed up her things and left work straight away.When she exited the office, she bumped into Shannon, who was also leaving. “Director Luna, so early today?”Luna nodded. “I have
“You cheating mistress! How dare you pretend to be all motherly grocery shopping?” “Leave!” The crowd started insulting her and kicking her. Some even threw rotten vegetables at her.Shannon immediately raised both her hands. “I’m innocent!” Then, she looked at Luna coldly. “Director Luna, I’ll make a move first. You… deal with this on your own.” At that, Shannon immediately went past through the crowd and left.Luna was the sole target of the crowd.She bent down, trying to protect the groceries that she just bought while taking her phone out, planning to call the police.Before she could call, her phone rang.She was being pushed around, so she could not stand properly. Her fingers lost control too, she immediately picked the call up.“Where are you?” Joshua was standing outside Luna’s house together with Neil and Nellie. He calmly asked on the phone.What replied to him was the sounds of people pushing and yelling insults.“A mistress should be killed!” “Breaking o
Her words made the entire supermarket silent once again. Everyone was looking at Joshua.He slightly narrowed his eyes.He was letting off a frigidly cold aura, it was cold enough to freeze the entire supermarket.After a while, he looked at the woman in front of him, then at everybody there.“First, Luna is not my mistress. She is an exceptional staff member of my company and a dear friend.“Next, my wife will not believe these baseless rumors. I also do not need to explain myself.”Then, he looked at the woman in front of him coldly. “Move aside.”The woman was determined to continue blocking Joshua and Luna in their path. “But from what I saw in the video online, it was Mrs. Lynch who first spread the rumor that Luna is the mistress. Before Mrs. Lynch returned back to you, you had a public image of a deeply loving husband. Now that there are rumors of you having a mistress, what you should do is draw a clear line and not protect this woman and not let your wife continue misun
“Mommy!”Once she got in the car, Nellie immediately buried herself in Luna’s arms. “Are you alright?”Neil, on the other hand, was carefully placing the groceries in Luna’s hands properly. Then, he checked her for any injuries.“That woman just now was Alice’s friend,” Joshua said coldly while sitting at the driver’s seat. He started the car.Luna shuddered a little.Before Joshua came, that woman was the one who led the attack and bullied her. The scratches on her face were made by that woman too.Joshua said that she was Alice’s friend, but that woman had a fluent Banyan City accent. She was local.What about Alice? Alice was not from Banyan City. She has never even stepped foot in Banyan City before.The chances of them being friends were extremely slim. It was more like a client and the employed.Luna dug her fingernails deep into her palm. First, she slandered Luna for ruining Theo’s artwork, then she used the power of the internet, releasing the surveillance footage h
Looking at Luna and Nellie’s back, Joshua pursed his lips tight. His gaze was deep and cold.“Mr. Lynch.”Neil, behind him, passed the groceries and stuffed them into Joshua’s hands. Then, he intentionally laughed. “What a joyous occasion. Mr. Lynch, you have Ms. Alice the pretty lady while my Mommy has the good-looking Theo! It’s great that the both of you are happily in love!”Joshua’s face turned blue.He swept Neil a cold glance and walked away with the groceries and a displeased face.Leaning against the car, Neil smiled and looked at Joshua’s back.‘Scumbag, you’re suffering, aren’t you?’ Neil thought.…“Mommy, where is the first aid kit?”
“Of course it is because of their daughter.” Luna smiled. “They announced on my behalf that they will be holding a press conference to properly explain the incidents today. “But.” Luna smiled and looked at Joshua. “They want me to admit during the press conference that I seduced you and had an affair with you. They also want me to explain that I was the one that released the surveillance footage, instigating the bully against Alice online.”Joshua furrowed his brows. He continued disinfecting her injuries. “What nonsense.”It did not matter whether Luna did those things that they claimed or not, she has no obligation to help Alice clear her name.Were they nuts or did they think that Luna was crazy?“I’m planning to go.” Luna lifted her head and looked at Joshua. “Since they want me to go, I’ll go.“But, I plan to clear my name.”Joshua furrowed his brows. He grabbed her arm and continued the disinfection of her injuries. “Clear what?”“To clarify that I did not seduce you n
Joshua lowered his head. He looked at Neil’s face, which was barely bigger than his palm, with a flat gaze. “What answer are you expecting by asking me this question?”Joshua’s gaze was so sharp it felt extremely dangerous.Even if he was a scumbag, Neil could not help but admit that Joshua’s gaze seemed to be able to see through someone.He looked away. He did not dare to meet Joshua’s eyes. “I’m just casually asking.”“If you’re casually asking, I’ll casually answer.”Joshua changed into a more comfortable position on the sofa. Joshua smiled flatly. “I’m still in love with her.”He closed his eyes and said flatly, “I’m still in love with the old her.”Neil’s eyes widened. He loved the old her? The old Alice Gibson was his Mommy, Luna, right? Neil immediately turned around and looked at Joshua seriously. “What about her present?”The present?Joshua changed into another posture. His eyes were still closed. He said nothing.Some questions, even he had no clear answer for th
