Luna had a rough night. She kept having dreams then woke up from them before she fell back into
another dream.
In her nightmares, Luna’s photos were circulated all over the internet, and everyone judged and
condemned her. Some even went so far as threatening to end her.
By the time Luna got woken up by a phone call in the early morning, she was drenched in cold sweat.
She picked up the phone with a throbbing head. “Hello, who is this?“
“It’s me, “ Theo’s voice rang out. “Nigel contacted me this morning and told me you were bullied in Sea
City.“ Theo let out a sigh. “I still have some things to settle here at the art gallery, so I’ll only be able to
go over to Sea City in the afternoon.“
Luna paused. “I’m fine. You don’t have to come over.“
“Of course I have to.“ Theo sighed again. “Nigel told me everything. He told me what happened at the
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtcocktail party and the cameras you found in your room. It must be tough for you to be there all alone.
Joshua and Alice are back together now, so he’ll definitely stand on her side. If I ‘m not there for you,
who else is?“
Luna felt her heart skip a beat. She bit down on her lip and was speechless for a while.
It seemed that…in Sea City, the place she had lived in for 20 years, there was no one there she could
rely on.
Luna finally heaved a deep sigh and said, “Alright then… Thank you.“ Luna was not as strong as she
looked.
“Don’t worry, you have me now, “ Theo reassured her. The two talked for a little while more before they
ended the call.
Luna set her phone aside and lifted her head to stare at the ceiling.
After a while, she heard someone knocking on her door. She opened it and came face-to-face with
Alice.
Alice handed a bag of food over to Luna. “Joshua and I went out to buy breakfast, and we got you one,
too.“
Luna glanced behind her and saw Joshua standing by one of the windows in the hallway as he gazed
at the scenery.
Luna pursed her lips and shoved the bag back into Alice’s hands. “I’m not hungry.“ With that, she
slammed the door in Alice’s face.
Alice’s voice rang out from the other side of the door, “Joshua, look at her! Why is she being like this? I
bought her breakfast out of kindness, and she won’t even look at it!“
Joshua replied coldly, “Well, if she doesn’t want the food, I’ll have it.“
“You’re the best, Joshua.“
Listening to their conversation from inside her room, Luna suddenly felt like laughing.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmTheo was right. Joshua would always be on Alice’s side, but no one was on Luna’s.
At 9pm, Lucas knocked on Luna’s door. “Ms. Luna, it’s time to go.“
Luna put on her jacket, grabbed the materials Joshua had given her last night, and followed Lucas out
of the door.
An RV was parked in front of the hotel. Luna flung the door open and discovered that there were three
people sitting inside: Joshua, Alice, and another man Luna had never seen before.
Seeing Luna’s arrival, Alice immediately grabbed Joshua. “Luna, this is one of the designers from
Walter Group. His name is Gavin. Hailey Walter sent him to join us on our field trip to the suppliers.“
She gave Luna a gentle smile before she added, “Since the Walters have sent someone over to
accompany us, they’re probably feeling bad about what happened that day at the party.“
“Yes.“ The man named Gavin pushed his glasses up on his nose and gave Luna a once -over. “Ms.
Luna is such a charming woman. It’s no wonder the misunderstanding happened.“
