Who was this man, and where did he even come from?

“Don’t believe me? If you don’t, I can give her another one, and you can then see if they’re the same.” Christian sneered and lifted Luna’s chin, then lowered his head to kiss her neck—

“That’s enough!” Joshua’s stern voice rang out from the door’s direction just as Christian’s lips were about to graze Luna’s skin.

Startled by Joshua’s voice and tone, Christian immediately paused in his tracks.

Luna seized this opportunity and released herself from Christian’s hold.

A flicker of disappointment flashed through Christian’s eyes.

Just a little more.

Even though it was just a fake kiss and that Christian knew Luna would not let him kiss her, he still could not help feeling a little disappointed by this.

Joshua strode into the room impassively. “What are all of you doing here? Aren’t you all supposed to be doing work?”

Then, he turned around and fixated his cold gaze on Charmaine’s face. “You don’t have to come to work tomorrow.”

    “Is that so?” Fiona blinked innocently at Charmaine. “When have I ever asked you to make Ms. Luna’s life difficult? Why would I even do that? Ms. Luna is Joshua’s favorite employee. She’s brought in significant revenue for Lynch Group, and she’s the star member of our team for the upcoming jewelry design contest.”Charmaine clenched her teeth. “That’s because you’re jealous of her! You’re afraid that she might steal Joshua from you!”“What are you talking about? Do you think Joshua would fall for anyone just like that?” Fiona scoffed, then turned to smile at Luna. “Don’t you agree, Ms. Luna?”Luna, who watched all this unfold with a hint of amusement, did not plan on getting involved in this drama between Fiona and Charmaine. Fiona had singled her out, however, and she knew Fiona was trying to get under her skin, so she curled her lips into a smirk and replied, “Of course. Ms. Blake is such a beautiful woman, and you and Mr. Lynch are such a sweet couple. Don’t you think you’re perf

    Joshua furrowed his brows slightly but still pulled Fiona closer to him. “It’s alright now.”Charmaine was so infuriated by this that she gritted her teeth in frustration. “Fiona Blake! You’re a lying, manipulative woman, you—”“Are you calling me manipulative?” Fiona lifted her head and pulled out her phone tearfully. “Charmaine, I’ve always thought of you as a friend, but you… I initially didn’t want to pursue this matter any further because we’re friends, but since you’ve become so heartless, I don’t think it’s bad of me to retaliate…”With that, she clicked on an audio file that contained a phone conversation between her and Charmaine... “When I saw President Lynch carrying Luna, I was upset. After all, President Lynch is your boyfriend, so how can he be carrying a b*tch like Luna…”…“Joshua was carrying Luna simply because she got hurt, and he wanted to send her to the hospital. That’s all it is. If you got slapped, it’s on you because you jumped to conclusions and talked

    Christian was so stunned by Luna’s reply that he did not know how to answer.“Either way, thank you for your help, but if something like this happens again in the future, you don’t have to help me anymore. I don’t like being kissed in front of so many people,” said Luna coldly. Then, she strode into her office, slamming the door behind her. Christian froze for a moment, then let out a sigh of exasperation. He had to admit he acted too rashly. He could not seem to put his finger on it, but somehow, when he saw how hard Luna struggled to suppress her emotions, he could not help feeling sorry for her. That was why he had rushed forward and tried to kiss her in front of everyone, without any regard for the consequences his actions might have brought. As he had regained his composure, he suddenly realized just how inappropriate his actions were. He contemplated for a moment, then pushed Luna’s door open. “I want to apologize to you.”Luna, who was busy drawing a sketch, did not

    Luna furrowed her brows. “Alright, thanks for telling me.”She had an inkling that Fiona would try to sabotage her during the competition. However, on second thought, she decided that Fiona would not dare to try.It was not because Fiona was a good person, but simply because their team was supposed to be representing Lynch Group. If Fiona sabotaged everything, not only would she humiliate Luna but Lynch Group as well. Seeing that she was Joshua’s girlfriend, Luna guessed that Fiona would not dare to commit a rookie mistake like that. However, since Charmaine had already given Arianna this warning, Luna had to take it into consideration and keep her guard up. After all, since they had already handed in the participants' list to the organizers, Luna could not change anything anymore, much less kick Fiona off the team. …After heeding Charmaine’s warning, Luna grew even more cautious during her preparation for the upcoming competition. She, along with Nigel and Nellie, had

    Luna furrowed her brows. As she glanced at the cup of coffee Fiona was holding, she chuckled. “Keep your coffee to yourself, Ms. Blake. After all, I wouldn’t know what kind of vitamin powder you added in there this time, would I?”Luna was being sarcastic when she said this. She was referring to what happened before when Fiona poured some vitamin powder into her glass and deliberately caused a misunderstanding. As soon as she heard this, Fiona’s expression darkened. However, she did not say anything and instead bit down on her lip and proffered Luna the coffee with a slightly upset expression. “This is pure coffee—there’s nothing added to it. I know you hate me, Ms. Luna, but since I made you this coffee out of kindness… Why don’t you give it a taste?”As she said this, Fiona kept inching closer to Luna. Luna frowned and extended her hands out, feeling somewhat uncomfortable. “I don’t want to—”“Ah—!” Before she could even finish, however, Fiona’s shrill screams pierced through th

    A short while later, some of the employees brought Fiona away with them. The remaining people soon dispersed after realizing there was nothing else to watch. “What a drama queen,” Samson scoffed as he watched Fiona leave with the rest of the people, and his lips twisted into a smirk. “Doesn’t she know not to use the same trick twice? She tried to frame Arianna with hot coffee before, and now she’s using the exact tactic again.”Luna furrowed her brows. She could not help feeling that there was something about the way Fiona acted.All of a sudden, she recalled the design sketch she had left on the desk.Luna immediately turned to look in the direction of her desk.She was right.The desk was empty.“Someone stole our design sketch!” Samson, too, noticed the missing sketch. “I knew Fiona was up to something! She deliberately caused a commotion so someone could steal the folder from right under our noses!”Samson was outraged by this discovery, and on the other hand, Zayne got

    When Joshua finally arrived at the hospital, the doctor was in the middle of cleaning and bandaging Fiona’s wound. He could not stop himself from complaining to his assistant, who was watching from the side, “Why didn’t you tell me to come earlier, knowing how serious her wound was? You’re useless!”The assistant bit down on her lip and answered in a slightly sheepish tone, “She looked perfectly fine, and she even said she was fine. She was just scalded by a cup of coffee, so I didn’t take much notice of her. I didn’t know that…”She did not know how serious this patient’s burn was!At this moment, Joshua strode into the room.The first thing he saw when he entered was the string of blisters on Fiona’s abdomen, as tightly strung as a chain of pearls. As soon as he saw this, Joshua furrowed his brows. “What happened?”Fiona bit down on her lip and answered in a low voice, “Nothing. It was my fault. I accidentally spilled coffee on myself.”“What do you mean, it was an accident

    “Was she the one who scalded Ms. Blake with her coffee?”“Yes. I heard that Ms. Blake’s burns were so severe that her abdomen was covered entirely in blisters. How terrifying! Despite that, Ms. Blake didn’t blame her for anything.”“Not only did Ms. Blake forgive her, but she even asked President Lynch not to reprimand Luna for this. Apparently, she didn’t want to cause any conflict or rifts between them because of the upcoming jewelry design contest.”“Do you think President Lynch will chew her out after the competition is over?”“Who knows? Even though she’s a talented designer, she’s not a good person at all…”…That night, while Luna and the rest were eating dinner at the company cafeteria, they overheard the murmurs and whispers of employees all around them.Samson immediately furrowed his brows upon hearing this. He slammed his fork down on the table forcefully and growled, “How dare they spread lies like this!”Luna, on the other end, frowned slightly and reached out her

    At that, he looked at Gwen. "Actually…"Steven found himself unable to finish his sentence. After a long while, he shook his head and smiled. "Forget about it.""Steven…" Gwen looked at him, and her tears fell.Her heart was not made of stone. How could she not know Steven's feelings toward her?She was silent for a long while. In the end, she stood up and slowly walked over to Steven with arms opened wide. "Give me a hug."Steven hesitated for a while, but he still stood up.They hugged."Gwen." Steven hugged her thin figure.

    The next day, Rachel flew from Merchant City to Sharnwick City to diagnose Anne's condition. Theo tagged along as well because he had another identity, Rachel's boyfriend."According to the report, Anne's condition is slowly recuperating." Rachel was relieved after assessing the report. "Although she is very weak, she is going to get better with lots of rest."There is nothing wrong with her vocal cords too. It could be a psychological thing that makes her lose her voice. A knot in her heart that causes it." She looked at Luna, then at John. "Considering all factors, I think that knot is Luna."Rachel continued, "John, I know Luna is the root cause of all these bad things. Being away from Luna, Joshua, and other people is going to guarantee a safer life for you and your family. But have you thought about it from Anne's point of view?

    It was almost a miracle for Anne to willingly leave the house just to visit him!Robyn, meanwhile, sobbed at the sight.The nurse who accompanied Anne to the ward was puzzled. What was going on with these people?She snuck her phone out of her pocket and took a photo of this surreptitiously. Then, she sent it into the nurse's group chat with the caption, [What a strange family I met today.]The nurses in the group chat began gossiping about this. One of them tagged a fellow nurse named Daisy and said, [Hey, isn't this the guy who saved the old man you're looking after? What a hero!]Daisy was, at this moment, walking into Andy's room to help him change his wound dressing. She saw the message but was not able to type on her keyboard to respond, so she recorded a voice message instead. "Yes, that's the man. What's wrong with his family? What are you guys talking about?"As soon as she finished her sentence, she lifted her head and finally realized that Andy was not there.Instead,

    Anne stared at John for a long time before forcibly smiling and told him in sign language, "Robyn didn't return after so long, so I got worried and came by to check on her.""Daddy, Aunt Robyn, are you two hugging?" Sammie asked, blinking innocently as she raised her head in curiosity.John and Robyn turned pale at this.It was understandable for such a young child like Sammie to misinterpret them as hugging, but what would Anne think of this?John leaped off the bed and staggered toward Anne. "Anne, it's just a misunderstanding…"However, he was still so weak that his legs could not hold up the full weight of his body at all, and he almost crumpled to the ground.Quick-witted Robyn managed to catch him before he could fall, but this gesture appeared once again rather intimate to both Anne and Sammie. Sammie furrowed her brow and asked rather indignantly, "Are you hugging again? Daddy, how can you hug Aunt Robyn like this when you've never even hugged Mommy and me like this befor

    When the nurse pushed Anne to John's ward, she overheard John and Robyn fighting from the door. The fight was about how John was anxious to return home because he was worried about Anne and Sammie.However, as someone who used to work as a nurse, Robyn knew John should not leave the hospital after being shot by a gun. At least, he needed to stay in the hospital and be observed for 24 hours to make sure that he was fine before leaving the hospital. If an infection happened, John's body would crash easily and he would become weak just like Anne.In the ward, John frowned and talked with a serious tone, "I'm really fine. Get me my clothes so I can go upstairs to thank Miss Andie and go back home immediately. If Anne knows that I'm hurt, she is going to worry. She will easily be suspicious since you haven't gone back home for a long time. What if she worries about me and brings Sammie to the hospital to look for me? Can you bear yourself even just thinking about it? She's weak and Sammie

    Sammie's soft and cute babyish voice melted Stefan's heart immediately. It had been quite some time since he actually put a smile on his face. "Hi, there. What's your name and how old are you?"Sammie tilted her head to look at Stefan's handsome face and smiled sweetly, "I'm Samantha but everyone calls me Sammie."Then she did not forget to introduce Anne to Stefan too. "This is my Mommy. Her name is Anne."At this point, Stefan had given all of his attention to Sammie and did not notice Sammie mentioned that her mother's name was Anne. He pinched Sammie's cheek and said, "Your Mommy is not feeling well. You have to be a good girl and take care of her, do you understand?"Sammie nodded seriously and said, "I will.""Alright, sir. I will bring them to where they want to go," the nurse saw Anne signing to her anxiously. She smiled and said, "Don't worry. I will take good care of them."The promise from the nurse gave an assurance to Stefan that they would be well taken off. He smil

    This was the first time Anne brought Sammie out. Ever since she escaped from death, she became a different person—a recluse and was afraid of the sun. This situation became even worse after she became mute.The last time she left the house was two weeks ago when she had to go for surgery.However, she worried about John. In the morning, Robyn told her John was hurt and needed to stay in the hospital to rest. However, she had a hard time believing what Robyn said.After spending so many years together with John, Anne reckoned she was the one who knew John the most. If it was a minor injury, John would never want to stay in the hospital. He cared too much about her and Sammie, so he never dared to let her worry about him. Therefore, it just did not sound reasonable if John would stay in the hospital because of a small injury.Furthermore, Robyn had not returned home since the morning, which was nearly three hours since she left the house. After much consideration, she decided to call

    Tara fell silent upon hearing this. She bit her lip nervously and shot Gwen a tentative glance. "I didn't mean to offend you, Gwen…" "I know." Gwen let out an exhale and interrupted Tara before she could finish, "I know you meant no harm, but I can't deny that this is something I'm still having trouble wrapping my head around. In the future, neither of you—even you, Luna—should bring this up again." Her love life was such a mess that not even she could unravel the ties, much less expect other people to understand. Tara pursed her lips and did not reply. Luna stared at Gwen in silence for a while before finally saying, "But you have to face this eventually, Gwennie. After all that you've been through with Luke, all of us hope for nothing but the best for the two of you. Even if you avoid it now, you'll have to face the truth eventually. Otherwise, are you planning on spending the rest of your life in this complicated relationship with Luke? Can you bear the thought of not being

    Stefan was mildly amused by the look on her face. He extended his arms out in a gesture of defeat and said, "I never intended on ratting you out to Joshua. You three spoke about these secrets in my presence." With that, he shot Andy a rather helpless look. "Don't you agree, sir?" Andy was surprised to be called out all of a sudden. "Of course!" Although Gwen and Luke had been together for a long time, Luke had never much cared for maintaining good relations with his future father-in-law. He always thought his relationship with Gwen did not concern anyone else outside of the two of them. Combined with the fact that Andy had done some hurtful things to Gwen in the past, Luke grew even more disdainful of his future father-in-law. Because of this, he had never given Andy as much as a second glance throughout their relationship and rarely ever addressed him directly like this. The truth was, Stefan had already called out to Andy once before, during their rescue mission the day befor
