Luna received a call from Theo during lunch.
He first apologized to Luna on Celeste’s behalf before asking her out for dinner that night.
“I have other arrangements tonight.“ Luna ate while looking at her memo on her phone.
That night, she had to pick Bonnie out from the hospital together with Jason.
At the thought of Jason, she could help but furrowed her brows. This man still gave her the chills at the
thought of him.
Regardless, she did not want to give up the chance to get to know Jason.
After all…
Luna narrowed her eyes.
Jason, of course, knew how Joshua wanted her dead back then. He was the weapon that Joshua used
against her.
If she was about to make the incident back then known to the public, to let everyone see clearly how
despicable Joshua was, Jason was an indispensable link!
“What time do you end tonight, then? I’ll go pick you up?“ Theo’s voice sounded graciously considerate
on the other end of the line. “Are you having a business gathering?“
“No, I have made arrangements to pick up a friend from the hospital.“
Luna took a deep breath. “You don’t have to pick me up. You’re busy enough.“
On the other end of the call, Theo was silent for a while.
After a long moment, he sighed. “Luna, I want to do something for you. To compensate… My mother has
done such terrible things to you, and I want to help her apologize to you.“
Luna paused for a while. She inexplicably became soft-hearted.
Theo was indeed a gentle and kind-hearted man.
Even if she was displeased with Celeste, hearing how gentle Theo’s tone was, she could not bear to
continue reprimanding him.
However, she also understood that if she did not let Theo do something, Theo would probably feel
uncomfortable.
Thus, Luna furrowed her brows. “If you want to do something, you can help me investigate a few
people.“
Theo was instantly spirited in their call. “Who do you want me to investigate?“
“Do you remember Irene Cook from this morning? She got beaten up by a few men last night. Those
men pretended that they were under my orders. Help me check where those men come from, along with
the IP address and address of the person they contacted most recently. Hand them to the police
afterward.“
Luna suddenly felt that this problem would be too challenging for Theo.
“As for the IP address, you can contact Nigel.“
“Okay! “ Theo happily accepted this mission. “Don’t worry. Leave it to me and Nigel! He’ll be in charge of
the internet, and I’ll be in charge of the physical aspects. We’ll find this out for you! “
Luna nodded. She exchanged a few more words with Theo before hanging up.
Since Alice wanted to pin the identity of Hailey Walter on her, Luna would play along and destroy Alice in
the process.
She did not believe that once she sent Mr. Walter into prison, just like Dennis Walter, Joshua would still
suspect her of being Hailey Walter!
After lunch, Luna returned to the design department from the company’s cafeteria.
On the way back, people kept commenting on her. Each sentence was worse than the previous one.
Luna pretended not to notice.
“You just take their ridicule and defamations of you just like that?“ Samson chased after Luna and went
into the elevator together with her.
“Before I came, I thought you were someone who’d fight for the truth. I never thought that you
wouldn’t fight back, even after such grievances.“
Luna slightly raised her eyebrows and smiled. “Who said that I don’t fight back after being aggrieved?“
Samson harrumphed coldly. “From what I see, you’ve always been cowardly.”
“Does that mean that when someone gossips about you, you have to jump up and slam the table,
scolding them back harshly? That only then are you not a coward?”
Luna yawned. “If you want to go according to what you say, perhaps I am a coward.”
Samson raised his brows. “Am I wrong?”
Luna rolled her eyes at him. She crossed her arms around her chest. “Child.”
Luna looked in front, her gaze flat. “The people that were bad-mouthing me just now, do you know which
department they come from or what kind of position they hold?”
