Anne pushed her into the bedroom. “You should do nothing and think nothing. Just have a good sleep!”Luna was helpless. She wanted to say that she could help with the dishes, but John quickly pulled Anne into his arms. “I want to be lovey-dovey with Anne, doing dishes together in your kitchen. Don’t be our third wheel.”While Luna was still stunned, John immediately took Anne and left.It was only until the two of them vanished from sight did Neil smilingly remark, “Mommy, stop looking.”Luna paused a little and subconsciously lowered her head. Neil and Nellie had already changed into their pajamas, and each hugged a small pillow as they stood by the door to the room. “We want to sleep together with you tonight, Mommy.”Nellie yawned. “We haven’t slept together in such a long time! I missed it!”Neil smiled a little. “Yes. You’ve been so busy that you don’t chat with us anymore. It’s nice that you can return the favor tonight!”Luna’s heartstrings were tugged as she heard the tw
That night, Luna slept exceptionally soundly.Neil was on her left while Nellie was on her right. Nigel’s light breathing came from the necklace that hung by the head of the bed.In a way, her three most important persons were next to her.She hugged Neil and Nellie tightly, and all of a sudden, her problems no longer seemed like problems.As long as her loved ones were next to her, everything could be resolved.The next morning, Anne’s knocks on the door woke her up from her dreams.“Luna, open up! Luna, wake up! Good news!”Luna groggily opened her eyes while rubbing her aching head. She got off the bed and opened the door.“Be quiet. Neil and Nellie are still sleeping.”Anne paused a little and looked a little apologetically into the room. The two kids on the bed were still sleeping soundly, undisturbed by her pestering.Luna closed the room door. She yawned and pulled Anne toward the sofa and sat down.“What good news?”“This!”Anne passed her the newspaper of that day
Anne’s mouth gaped wide open.Luna rubbed the middle of her brows. She sighed heavily. “I never would’ve thought that things would be resolved so easily.”She thought she would need a day or two to come up with a plan. She never expected that everything would change overnight.Nigel pursed his lips. “I’ve told you to have a good sleep and when you wake up, everything will be solved. I wasn’t lying, right?”Luna chuckled. After a while, she exhaled. “I’m just curious—how did you make Mo Sam listen to you?”“Nothing much.” Nigel laughed gently. “I hacked into his computer and took away everything on his hard disk, including his diaries of wetting the bed when he was young and how he failed to pursue the girl that he has a crush on. Also…“Also, evidence of other designers’ drafts.”Luna paused for a while before slowly saying, “So, his identity as a talented designer…”“Mmh,” Nigel responded, “it’s all fake. He’s only a person that loves jewelry design a lot, but he only likes th
Luna’s hand that held her phone stiffened instantly.“Mr. Lynch, he…”“He knows some hacking skills, too.”On the other end of the line, Lucas scratched his head rather confusedly. “Technically, with his busy schedule, Mr. Lynch wouldn’t have the time to cultivate a hobby, but he’s a pretty skillful hacker. He said that he studied it many years ago when he was bored.”Lucas then added, albeit emotionally, “Mr. Lynch truly is the smartest man I know. Hacking is such a challenging skill, yet he could learn it when he was bored! How amazing!”Luna’s hands shuddered a little.If she remembered correctly, when she just married Joshua back then, she remembered she once told Joshua that she thought men who knew how to hack were very cool.She even naively asked him whether he had any hacking skills.However, Joshua swept her a cold glance. “Hackers are only smarter programmers. Why don’t you like programmers, then?”From then onward, Luna no longer mentioned how she liked hackers t
“Is his hacking skills…good?”“It’s great.” Nigel pursed his lips. “I might need a few more years of training to reach his level.”Luna’s heart sunk deeply upon Nigel’s words.She casually caught up with Nigel for a little while more before hanging up the call and returning to the living room.Anne had made breakfast. She called Luna over to have some food, though with furrowed brows as she looked at her. “Mo Sam has admitted that he stole your designs, and this is good news. Why does it feel like you’re not in a good mood?”Luna forced a smile. She lowered her head and seriously started eating.…Five hours later, at Lynch Group Tower.It was the same conference room with the same people. Everyone was called in for a meeting.Sitting at the main seat, Joshua could not hide the tiredness and haggardness on his face.Even so, he was equally dignified and arrogant-looking.With a small smile, he tapped on the meeting table rhythmically with one hand. “I’m sure all of you have
Everyone was instantly quiet upon hearing Shannon’s words. They subconsciously look at Alice.After a long while, everyone started discussing in hushed tones.“Mrs. Lynch and Luna never had a good relationship...”“But Mrs. Lynch won’t do such a thing that would ruin the Group’s reputation, right?”“Who knows? Perhaps Mrs. Lynch knows that Mr. Lynch spoils her, he might not mind…”The discussions went on.As the person in question, Alice was surprisingly calm.She calmly swept a glance at Shannon. Her eyes were filled with surprise. “Are you sure that computer fifty-two was the one that I used?”Shannon furrowed her brows and nodded.“I’m sure. I was the one who arranged that computer for you back then.”Alice furrowed her brows. “Are you sure? How could it be…”Alice looked at Shannon confusedly, then she looked at Joshua. Her reactions turned from surprised to stunned, then into a rage.“There must be a mistake! How could it possibly be sent from my computer?”Then, she
Luna felt like she saw black.Sure enough.Alice and Courtney joining forces meant that they were up to no good.As for the recording, she never expected that Alice would have blamed it on her after all.After all, she was waiting to see Joseph at the police station the entire afternoon the day before.She never expected that Alice would target Arianna. Arianna was the assistant that Nigel found for her on the internet due to her busy schedule previously.Nigel said that Arianna was intelligent. He screened through all of the candidates thoroughly before selecting her.Luna trusted her son the most, so she directly hired Arianna. Therefore, Arianna’s hiring skipped through the vetting from Human Resources.Everyone in the Lynch Group knew that Arianna was on Luna’s side.However, at that moment…Alice put the blame for the uploading of the video on Arianna. She even said to find out who was the main person behind it.“Am I going to get fired?” Arianna looked at Luna with t
The conference room was instantly in silence.Everyone looked at Luna closely. They seemed to want to read her thoughts from her face.“Luna.”Sitting on the main seat, Joshua swept her a glance indifferently. His gaze was cold. “What is going on?”When he picked her up from the police station the day before and when she saw the video on the internet, her expressions did not look like she was faking it.However, at that moment, the person that uploaded the video was Luna’s closest assistant.Either she was extremely scheming and great in acting even duping him, or her assistant has been bribed by someone.Joshua turned over and looked at the little girl next to Luna. Her face has lost all of its colors. She was sweating profusely and trembling violently.If it were not for her hands gripping the sides of the tables tightly, he believed that she would have fallen to the ground already.Joshua furrowed his brows.How could this assistant of Luna, who was direct and wore her hea
