CHAPTER 51

Observing all of this, Luna couldn’t help sympathizing with the woman. She tried not to care, but it just seemed to be more than her to ignore the woman’s discomfort. She picked up a cup of milk from the table nearby and gave it to Bruce, cursing herself for caring so damn much.“Give this to her.” She jutted her chin towards the pregnant woman. Bruce furrowed his eyebrows in confusion. “Are you friends with her?”Luna shook her head and looked at Bruce like he was stupid. If they were friends, she would have gone to her with the milk herself.“I don’t know her, but she’s pregnant, and from where I’m sitting, she seems to be having a little trouble. Stop with your questioning and go give her. Some warm milk might help her.”Bruce was still very confused, but he listened to Luna and went over with the glass of milk. The woman was obviously surprised when Bruce came and gave her the milk. They exchanged a few words, then the woman looked at Luna, not very sure what to do about the milk

CHAPTER 52

Her loud scream resonated through the banquet hall.Lara was on a short skirt that could do nothing to protect her knee as it landed on the broken pieces of glass. Her face and ears turned red in embarrassment at her indecent posture.Luna hurried over to help her up.Before she could touch her, a middle-aged man rushed over and pushed her away.“Lara!” he called in a panicked tone and assisted the young Lara to her feet. He was Lara’s father, Johnnie Yerkes. Before long, a crowd had already gathered around the scene.“Dad, someone deliberately pushed me. You have to do something,” Lara said, her vision blurring with tears as she saw the think red liquid oozing out of her knee.When she looked up again, her eyes coincidentally fell on Luna and her eyes went wide. She pointed blatantly at Luna and stated like a spoilt child, “She’s the one who pushed me, dad!”Lara was the cherished gem of her family. She was loved by everyone, and had never gone through a single hardship in her life.

CHAPTER 53

They were so loud and cruel that Luna almost drowned in it. Then, her eyes searched for Rhea until she found her. She had clearly underestimated to what extent Rhea was willing to go just to break her. She thought the cunning woman would at least take a break at the banquet.She was clearly mistaken. To worsen things, Rhea smiled at Luna, knowing very well that Luna had figured out her hand in this. “Mr. King, I’m surprised that your wife is so jealous. But Lara has hurt her knee. I can’t leave it at that.” Johnnie looked at Preston questioningly.“Dad, what are you saying? Just get to the point and ask her to kneel down and apologize to me. I won't let her get away after humiliating me like this. You know such has never happened to me,” Lara shouted.On hearing this, Preston frowned at her.Johnnie held his daughter back and motioned for her to stop. She was acting so recklessly, without thinking about the consequences.However, Lara was naive and didn’t understand why her dad was ho

CHAPTER 54

Before she could put in a word, he scolded her mercilessly, “Were you going to make a fool of yourself out of jealousy? Luna, look around for Christ’s sake! Everyone here is more beautiful than you! Are you going to try hurting all of them too?”His words cleared all doubts Luna had of him. She glared back at him and replied, “I thought you were a smart man. You should have known this was all a plot. Why did you stop me from apologizing to her then?”“What is your apology worth? What good did it do when you spoke those dirty words last time you apologized? You don’t expect me to trust you this time. Do you think I’m blind? I saw you pestering Leon earlier. Did you want to seduce him?”Luna clenched her fists. Why was he bringing that up? She admitted that she said some unpleasant things that day, but she was only retaliating and defending herself. Preston teamed up with Rhea, and made her, his wife, apologize to Rhea.This situation had nothing to do with that one. It was completely d

CHAPTER 55

After listening in for a short moment, Luna understood that the women were appreciating the diamond bracelet on Rhea’s hand. “Miss Evans, the diamond on your bracelet is so beautiful.”“Of course it is! This diamond is called ‘Mystery of the Seabed’, handed down in the 18th century. It is the only one in the world. Money isn’t enough to buy it,” Rhea said, flaunting the bracelet with pride.‘The Mystery of the Seabed? Luna squinted her eyes. She was almost certain that the Mystery of the Seabed was still overseas. “Really? You mean you have the only piece in the world, Miss Evans? You're so powerful.”Luna looked back at the banquet hall where Preston was talking with Johnnie. He couldn't see her, right? In quick tiny steps, she reached the circle of ladies and also acted fascinated by the diamond bracelet.“The Mystery of the Seabed? It’s really beautiful. Can I have a look?”Rhea’s pride shot up upon seeing Luna. She held her wrist out to her and said, “Of course, look to your fill,

CHAPTER 56

As Rhea strode after her into the lounge, she thought of ways to deal with Luna.She couldn't let her off after the humiliation she just gave her.“You cunning bitch!” Rhea exclaimed as she entered the lounge. “I underestimated you. How you managed to deceive Grandma Claudia with a simple box of cookies is beyond me. You're so ugly, yet you still manage to fool people.” Rhea crossed her arms, standing in front of Luna.Luna, who had just taken her seat before Rhea and her minions came in, looked up indifferently at them. Rhea and her minions stuck to her like glue on a piece of paper.It was funny how the most cunning person she knew called another person cunning.Luna ignored that little fact and quirked an eyebrow. “Grandma? Who are you to call Claudia Grandma? Is your last name King?”Luna’s words really struck a nerve with Rhea. Already embarrassed and infuriated,Rhea couldn’t digest Luna’s mockery over the fact that she couldn't call Claudia grandma.Claudia was a wise woman. Sh

CHAPTER 57

“Great idea! Let's do that.”Gently, so as not to alarm Luna, they locked the door from outside. Then, they found the electrical panel mounted on the wall and turned off the power supply for the lounge.The lights suddenly went off in the lounge. Luna looked around and could only see darkness.She reached for her phone for a flashlight, but the power was turned off. She groaned in frustration as she recalled how that happened. While waiting for Preston earlier outside the banquet hall, she played with her phone to kill both the time and her boredom. She played until the battery completely ran down.With a sigh, Luna thought of the layout of the room and walked in the direction of the door, stumbling along the way. When she finally reached the door and held the doorknob, she sighed with relief.However, she pressed it down, but it didn’t budge. She tried a few more times, but the door was locked.This wasn’t right, and it was too much of a coincidence; the locked door and the lights ou

CHAPTER 58

Millie handed the first slice of cake to Claudia before dividing the rest of the cake. Once she was done, she picked up a slice of the cake and went to Preston. “Honey, have some cake.” Preston ignored the cake and stared at her, trying to figure out where she was all this time. Derek searched everywhere and couldn’t find her, only for her to show up out of nowhere at the right time. “Where were you?” He voiced his thoughts. Luna was quite the good actress, and she put up a good act with Claudia. However, Preston’s keen eyes didn’t miss the dust on her skirt. He looked down at her hand holding the cake and also noticed the cut on the base of her palm. Without looking up at Preston, Luna answered, “I listened to you and hid so you wouldn't be ashamed of me.” Preston gritted his teeth. Why couldn't she try to be nice for once? He was genuinely worried earlier. “And where exactly did you go and hide yourself? Derek searched everywhere for you and couldn’t find you. And that cut

CHAPTER 59

Taken aback by his open display of annoyance toward her, Rhea let out a gasp and bit her bottom lip.She whirled around and saw Luna staring at her and Preston with narrowed eyes.Even though she might get in trouble for picking on her, the other woman acted completely unfazed, which baffled Rhea. Clearly disappointed with Luna’s actions, Preston sent a cold look in her direction.The woman must have been so anxious that she exacted revenge right away.Rhea was so shocked by the meeting of Preston’s and Luna’s eyes that she failed to detect the disapproval in the man’s gaze. She thought her eyes were playing tricks on her when she saw the two people communicating with their gazes.“Is that how you look at the men you want to seduce? You're such a bitch!”Suddenly, Rhea’s patience worn thin. She cried out in anger and charged at Luna.“Take Miss Evans to the room so that she can change and calm down.”Rhea stopped in her tracks upon hearing Preston's cold voice.She turned to look at h

CHAPTER 60

The corner of Luna’s mouth twitched.“Tell him that I'd like to schedule a meeting with him. There’s something I want to discuss with him.” “Sir Leon won't agree to that. Just give up.”After saying that, the bodyguard returned to Leon’s side.Luna wrinkled her nose. Leon was strange. She was his cousin-in-law, but she could not even say a word to him. She just looked at him, and he immediately warned her to stay away from him.“Luna, you're at a fancy party, but you’re by yourself and just walking around idly. You can’t even find anyone who wants to talk to you,” Rhea commented mockingly from behind her.She had been watching the woman since she arrived at the garden.Her desire to remove the mask from Luna’s face grew stronger as she recalled the hideous scar she had seen. She was certain that doing so would cause as much chaos as if a bomb had been dropped into a placid lake. Luna turned to her with a smile.“I'm not wearing any flashy jewelry. People don’t talk to me because there
