“Even if you want to thank me, you didn’t have to call me out this early in the morning, right?”At the break of dawn, Bonnie sat in the coffee shop owned by her family, yawning continuously. She sipped on her coffee, her eyes blurred, complaining to Luna in a low voice. Sitting in front of her, Luna smiled faintly. “Of course I’m not asking you out just to thank you.” She found the photo Joey Charles sent to her the other day and handed it to Bonnie. “Look.” Bonnie frowned and took the phone, then, her eyes widened immediately. “Isn’t this Aura Gibson?”To investigate her brother, Jason’s disappearance, Bonnie had been conducting follow-up reports on Aura for a long time. In the end, she was even tricked by Aura and stayed in the psychiatric hospital for a long time instead of Aura. But…Joshua sent Aura abroad in the name of furthering her studies and forbade her from returning to Banyan City, right? So why was the photo of Aura taken at the airport in Banyan City? And…W
She took out her phone as she spoke. “The things I said when I went to the competition yesterday were all provided for in the email. The sender was so careful, if not you, who else could it be? All I did was take out what you gave me, and recited the script you prepared then exaggerated with a few sentences of my own.”As she spoke, she tapped her mailbox open. There were two emails lying in her inbox. One of them contained all the videos and photographs, the other was a long, anonymous letter. Luna took the phone in shock and read through the contents of the email. Not only did the sender send the emails to Bonnie anonymously, he even analyzed and predicted what happened yesterday. The sender knew Luna very well. Besides knowing how much effort she poured into the competition, the sender even knew that Fiona would use the rumors floating around online about Luna’s poor personality to attack her. That’s why the sender informed Bonnie of all the appropriate responses and asked
Walking out of the hospital, Luna felt as if her entire mind and body were befuddled and confused.No matter how long she thought about it, she failed to figure it out. If she and Joshua were really the only ones who had seen this photo and Joshua bought it in the end, then even if the person who sent the email to Bonnie was not Joshua, he would at least know about it.But if the sender was indeed Joshua…Then what was his aim?These documents and pieces of evidence were unfavorable to Fiona. He loved her so much, was even willing to accompany her through her final days, then why would he embarrass her in public like that yesterday? Luna was thoroughly puzzled. Back at the Blue Bay Villa, she contemplated the issue for a long while and in the end, told Nigel about the emails. She also sent him the sender’s email address. The little guy immediately understood what she meant. He blinked his big eyes. “Mommy, do you want me to find out the address of the person who sent the em
“Very soon we’ll be able to determine the location from which this email address sent its last email!”Luna was startled and hurriedly poked her head over to her son. Looking at the swirly numbers and codes on the screen, she pursed her lips and had no choice but to retract her gaze, instead, choosing to quietly stare at Nigel’s answer.But she…could not make any sense of it.Seeing her curious yet confused look, Nigel could not help but cover his mouth with his hand and laugh. “Mommy, people specialize in different professions, both you and Nellie are designers, it’s normal that you don’t know this! If you’re good at everything, then I would be of no help to you!”As he spoke, the little guy frowned and glanced at the address on the computer screen. “The Smith Group… Where is that?”Luna was completely startled. “You’re saying, the email address that sent the emails to Bonnie was last logged in at the Smith Group?” “Yes.” Nigel nodded solemnly. “Not only was it last logged in
When Luna rushed to Jude’s company, his secretary stopped her. “I’m sorry, Ms. Luna, Mr. Smith is not here.” Luna narrowed her eyes slightly. She lowered her eyes and took a glimpse of the time. It was past 9 a.m. in the morning, normal working hours. Besides, today was Monday, where could he be if he was not in his office? Right when Luna was wondering about Jude’s whereabouts, an executive of the Smith Group arrived outside of the office. “Secretary Colleen, President Smith called me, he asked me to come over and report to him, he…”The executive's words were interrupted by the secretary. "Director Smith is not here now."The executive frowned. "But President Smith just called me half an hour ago. Besides, I just saw President Smith's car downstairs, he should still be in the company, right?” The secretary grew anxious, gesturing at the executive with her eyes and guarding against Luna at the same time. “President Smith just left…”The executive was surprised, then final
He should have taken Joshua’s advice and escaped through the back door! During their call just now, Joshua asked him to run away, but as the President of the Smith Group, it would be too much of an embarrassment if he ran away as soon as Luna came calling. He thought she would never find him as long as he hid behind the hidden door in his office. But he underestimated Luna and her son’s abilities!His phone was switched off, but somehow it switched on all by itself and started playing music. What’s more, no matter how hard he tried to switch it off, he failed! At this thought, Jude could not help but smile at Luna while he muttered to himself, “Nigel was indeed Joshua’s son… Not only his hacking skills, but even his two-facedness was also exactly the same as Joshua’s…”“Why are you hiding from me, Mr. Smith?” After sitting down with Jude on the sofa, Luna did not want to waste any time on pleasantries and went straight to the point. Since Jude was already avoiding her, that prove
Jude wanted to reject Luna’s suggestion. But… Right when he was about to open his mouth to reject her, Luna took out her phone and pressed the button to set it on loudspeaker. Nigel’s cheerful voice drifted from the phone. “Mommy, if Uncle Jude does not agree, I’ll expose the secrets in his phone to the public! About the identity of the goddess that you have been crushing on for ten years, and how you lost badly at a game and reported your opponent to get his account knocked…I know everything!”Listening to the little guy's slightly immature and threatening words, Jude frowned. “Nigel, it’s wrong of you to do this! If I get angry enough, I will sue you!” “Oh.” Nigel pouted and said, “But Uncle Jude, if you sue me, my Daddy will have a heart-to-heart with you. Don’t worry, he can’t bear to watch as his beloved son rots in prison.”Jude was speechless. “…”The office was quiet for a long period of time. Finally, Jude had no choice but to admit defeat and called Joshua resignedly
Since the moment Jude said he wanted to hide behind the secret door, Joshua had expected this outcome. That’s why he immediately hacked into the surveillance system of Jude’s company and located the CCTV camera installed in his office. He saw the hidden hope and expectation in her eyes when she suspected that he was the one who had sent the emails to Bonnie. Deep down, she still hoped it was him, and still wished the answer he gave her was that he once cherished her in his heart. Otherwise, why would she rush to Jude’s office to question him and force him to call Joshua?But…Joshua laughed bitterly. The lives of two children separated them. Even if she knew that he had feelings for her, and was helping her behind her back… Could she really forget about the deaths of their children and choose to be with him? She would still be in pain; she would still feel conflicted. Him suffering alone was better than the both of them suffering together. Joshua sucked in a deep breath in frus
