The woman’s expression darkened when she heard this. She glared at Luna and snapped, “Fifty
thousand dollars is compensation for ruining my clothes. Why do I have to give it away to you?“ Then,
she took out her phone. “There are four of you and I stand alone, so I won’t be able to convince you
otherwise, but I’ll call Ms. Blake now and get her to settle this once and for all! Ms. Blake has a wealthy
and powerful boyfriend, you know. In the future, when she marries her boyfriend, she’ll become the
most respected woman in Banyan City. Since I’m her most trusted and loyal servant, you’ll definitely
reap the consequences of offending me!“
With that, the woman dialed a number and stepped aside to make a phone call. “Ms. Blake…“
“Ms. Blake? “ As soon as the woman left, Samson, Zayne, and Shannon exchanged glances and, after
a moment, turned to look at Luna altogether. “Is this… the Ms. Blake that we’re thinking about?“
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtLuna smirked. “It is.“ Letting out a yawn, she made her way past the crowd and sat down at their
designated table. “Come on, let’s have lunch.“
The three of them were speechless at this sight.
“I can’t believe you still have the appetite to eat. “ Samson scoffed and plopped himself down in the
seat across from Luna. “What an unpleasant coincidence. This morning, she injured my Arianna, and
now, her servant is causing me so much trouble! “ he complained, affronted.
Zayne slowly handed everyone their cutleries and said, “She’s not yours.“
Samson rolled his eyes. “She will be, soon enough. You can’t beat me! “
Zayne chuckled at Samson’s declaration. “We’ll see.“
Luna let out a sigh and started eating. Youngsters at this age were so sure about what they wanted.
Their lives were laid ahead of them, clear as day. Unlike her, She had met Joshua around their age, an
age where one should have experimented with love. However, because of Joshua, she never managed
to experience love and relationships to the fullest.
“Ahem.“ Feeling a little annoyed by Zayne and Samson’s spat, Shannon immediately interjected, “
Actually, I have something to tell you guys.“
Samson and Zayne both fell silent and turned around to look at her.
“That woman’s dress… “ Shannon let out an exhale and continued, “I bought the same one for my
mother before—the exact same style, brand, and material. I picked it out for my mother myself, so I’d
recognize it anywhere.“
Samson gave her a thumbs up and said, “Judging from the clothes you usually wear, I didn’t think you’d
be so generous to spend so much money buying clothes for your mother. You’re a good daughter! “
Shannon rolled her eyes at him. “What I wanted to tell you was, that dress doesn’t cost fifty thousand
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmdollars at all! I bought it at a department store, but even then, it only cost five hundred. I couldn’t
believe my ears when the lady demanded fifty thousand dollars from us in reparation.“
She glanced at Luna and added, “The lady said Fiona was the one who bought her the dress. Do you
think… Fiona lied to her about the price, or was the lady just trying to scam us?“
Luna curled her lips into a smirk. “I’d say the former is more likely.“
The woman kept bringing up Ms. Blake and seemed to be very proud of Fiona. In that case, if Fiona
managed to land a boyfriend like Joshua yet only bought her most loyal servant a five-hundred-dollar
dress, the lady would not have thought she was a good employer at all, much less be so faithful toward
her.
Just as the three of them continued to discuss this interesting revelation, Luna’s phone rang.
It was a call from Joshua. “Where are you?“ Luna smiled. “I’m at the hospital’s cafeteria.“
Joshua paused slightly, then said, “That’s perfect. I need your help. I’m a little busy now, and Fiona’s
condition is still a bit unstable, so she can’t go downstairs either. Fiona’s maid had just called us and
said someone was bullying her in the cafeteria. Gather the rest of your troops to help her. I’ll ask her to
meet you downstairs.“
