Luna slept through the entire night.
In her dreams, she dreamt that she was humiliated by many men. She dreamt that her dead body was
disposed of in the wilderness.
She dreamt that Joshua and Alice drove over her dead body and happily returned to Banyan City.
She woke up from her nightmare screaming in fear. “Did you have a nightmare?“
When she came to her senses, Theo’s voice rang out gently in her ears.
Luna opened her eyes. She was in a foreign environment. White walls and beds and it smelled of
disinfectant.
She rubbed the middle of her brows and got up from the bed. “I’m at…“
“The hospital, “ Theo replied while pouring her some water. “You were attacked and kidnapped last
night. Later on, you were rescued and sent to the hospital.“
Then, he passed Luna a glass of warm water. “Do you remember anything?“
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtLuna accepted the glass of water. She thought for a while. “A little bit.“
Last night…
After sending Gwen back home, she fell asleep in the taxi.
Later on…
She subconsciously lowered her head, wanting to check her own body.
Theo gently pressed into her arms. “You’re fine. They only force -fed and drenched you in alcohol.
They did not do any substantial harm to you.“
Then, Theo sighed, “But if the person that rescued you came a little bit later… it would be hard to say
then.“
Luna bit her lips. She was drunk on alcohol, but while dazed, she still remembered bits and pieces.
“Last night… was Joshua the one that rescued me?“ Theo nodded. “It’s him.“
“We’re in Sea City. He’s from Banyan City, how could he go up against Sea City’s largest gang?“
“He got the second-largest gang for help.“
Theo chuckled a little, “He’s a businessman after all. He is very smart. After he was sure that Liam
Clark kidnapped you, he immediately went to Jones Gang alone to look for Luke Jones. He told Luke
that he has a way to bring Liam down.“
Then, Theo could not help but sigh relievedly, “This was a great move. On one hand, Luke brought
Liam down. The largest gang had no leader anymore, so Jones Gang could directly become Sea City’s
greatest gang.
“On the other hand, Liam has owed the Walter family a favor. All these years, thanks to Liam’s help,
they could remain invincible in Sea City for so many years.
“Now that Liam has fallen, the Walter family has lost their support. Even if Joshua does not target the
Walter family, they would be not as great as before. This is the start of their downfall.
“Lastly, Luke gained a lot from this matter, but he still owes Joshua a huge favor. When the Jones Gang
became Sea City’s greatest gang, Joshua could freely roam Sea City.“

Then, Theo could not help but sigh emotionally, “ Joshua killed three birds with one stone. I even
suspected that he planned all these in advance, if
not, this man’s ability to adapt is terrifying.“
Luna closed her eyes. “Perhaps, he has already planned this from the beginning.“
Theo pursed his lips. “I… I don’t think so. I was just saying.“
Luna’s gaze was flat. “During the inspection a few days ago, Joshua had a document that was the
acquisition plan of the Walter family’s jewelry line.
“Back then, I was still thinking, the Walter family’s jewelry line is doing so well, how could it be so easily
acquired? If last night’s incident was the downfall of the Walter family…“
She lifted her eyes and fixed her gaze on Theo. “Tell me, now that they are no longer the leading
enterprise of Sea City, do you think the Walter family will choose to sell off their jewelry line?“
Theo was silent.
He was only just casually saying, he never would have thought that he managed to guess Lynch
Group’s confidential business tactics. Theo took a deep breath. ”Joshua is a businessman. It’s only
normal that he would do this.”
