In reality…Bonnie wanted to transfer all her fortune over to Luna, then disappear from the face of this
earth entirely. However, Luna was a calm and level- headed person. Bonnie knew that if she did not
agree to Luna’s terms, Luna would definitely refuse to take the money.
Bonnie bit down on her lip and remained silent. After a long while, she finally let out an exhale and
chuckled. “Well, since Luna thinks that accepting all of the Craig family’s fortune is too much and insists
on only taking one million dollars, I ‘ll gladly do so.
“As for the rest…we’ll discuss this again in the future.“ With that, she turned to glance at one of her
lawyers, who had been waiting backstage all this while. “You don’t have to draft the transfer contract
anymore. Just get me a contract for a transfer of one million dollars for now.“
The lawyer nodded, and after a while, the contract was printed and passed over to Bonnie.
Exhaling, Bonnie dragged Luna to a table on the stage and signed her name on the contract, right
under the audience’s watchful gazes.
After that, she handed the pen over to Luna. “Now, it’s your turn.“
Still clutching the pen in her hand, Luna stared at the contract before her and heaved a deep sigh.
The moment she signed this contract, she would receive one million dollars from Bonnie.
With this money, she could finally quit her job at Lynch Group and go back to taking care of Nigel and

As soon as she signed this contract, she would no longer have to see Joshua every day at work, nor
would she have to subject herself to Fiona’s manipulative tactics.
Everything was about to come to an end.
Luna let out an exhale and placed her pen at the signature column—
“Wait a minute,“ a low voice rang out through the room, just as Luna scrawled the first two letters of her
name.
Startled by the voice, Luna stopped right that
instant, causing her handwriting to transition into an indiscernible scribble.
Bonnie lifted her head in surprise. “Joshua Lynch?“ She did not remember inviting Joshua to her party
this night.
“Yes, it’s me. “ Joshua curled his lips into a smirk and stood up gracefully from his seat on the sofa. “
Ladies, before you sign this agreement for a one million-transferal, why don’t you check to see if Ms.
Craig can even afford to pay this sum?“
Bonnie’s brows furrowed as soon as she heard this. She gave Joshua a contemptuous look and said,
“Are you trying to make a joke, Mr. Lynch? I’m the only living kin of the Craig family and the sole
heiress of the Craig family fortune. I own more than ten billion dollars’ worth of assets belonging to the
Craig Group. How dare you even suggest I can’t afford to pay one million dollars? Are you trying to be
funny?“
Joshua did not seem fazed by Bonnie’s taunting. Instead, he smirked and replied, “Ms. Craig, why don’t
you check the Craig Group’s shares right now, and we’ll see who’s laughing?“
Bonnie frowned and immediately took out her phone.
Although she was not very adept at buying and selling shares, she still understood what was
happening on her screen. The steep decline of the Craig Group’s shares highlighted on the screen
made her freeze in shock.
At this moment, Lucas brought out a projector and displayed projections of the Craig Group’s market
shares on the stage’s backdrop.
Joshua gracefully sat back down and leaned against the seat, his legs crossed elegantly on top of one
another. “Ms. Craig, do you have any idea what this means?“
With that, he shifted his gaze from Bonnie’s pale face onto Luna’s. “Luna, do you know what this
means?“
Luna clenched her hands into fists.
The projections were clear. The Craig Group’s shares had dropped from their peak to an all-time -low in
only ten minutes.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmTen minutes ago was when Bonnie announced that she would be gifting all her assets to Luna.
This meant that as soon as Bonnie made her
announcement, someone had sold all their shares of Craig Group, causing the market shares to drop
to an all-time low.
However, Craig Group was a large company. Whoever was behind this must have possessed an
insurmountable amount of power and wealth, so much so that they could bankrupt Craig Group in only
ten minutes.
There were only two people in Banyan City who possessed this kind of power: Joshua Lynch and Jude
Smith.
As soon as she thought of this, Luna glanced at Jude, who was holding a glass of wine and chatting up
a beautifully dressed woman below the stage.
It was clear that Jude was not the mastermind behind this. Therefore, there could only be one other
person.
Luna shifted her gaze to look at Joshua, who was leaning against his seat triumphantly, looking like
royalty, and felt as though someone had dunked her heart in ice-cold water.
It was obvious why he did this.
If Bonnie gave her one million dollars, Luna would not have to work at Lynch Group anymore and be
subjected to his and Fiona’s tormenting.
He was trying to force her to stay.
