It was like Luna no longer recognized Jim at that moment.
No. It could not be. All these must have been done by the media. They were falsely reported.
Jim always treated her, his younger sister, well. He would never do this sort of thing!
At that thought, Luna took a deep breath. She lifted her head and looked at the two bodyguards.
“Get Jim to come out. I want him to tell me in my face.”
Unless Jim told her to her face that he was the one that did all those things, she would not believe a
single word she read!
The bodyguards looked at each other. Finally, one of them sighed and looked at Luna.
“You just don’t know when to quit!” Then, he turned around and entered the mansion.
Luna stood straight and remained in the same spot, letting the rain drench her.
Theo took an umbrella over to shelter her.
“I’ve already reported the fire, but they said that the fire has been going on for more than an hour.
They’re already here. They said that someone in the Landry family said that they were just clearing old
things. Someone in the family was watching over the fire. Nothing would happen, so they went back.”
Luna’s heart hurt so badly as if an invisible hand was squeezing on it tightly.
She looked toward the back of the hill. The rain was getting heavier, yet the fire there did not even seemt
o be doused out tremendously.
She shut her eyes and laughed bitterly.
The Landrys were clearing old things, so they burned her mother’s warehouse. In this case, did it seem
to the Landrys that Rosalyn’s things were old things that needed to be cleared? Was that it?
Luna did not understand. She did not understand why things would take such an abrupt, sour turn when
she had just left Merchant City for a day. Everything turned on its head.
The brother she loved the most gave orders that she could not enter the Landry Mansion. He even said
that she tried to murder her father, mother, and Heather.
Why?
She could not understand.
Could it be that Jim had long wanted total control of Landry Group, that he had been pretending all this
while?
Luna stood under Theo’s umbrella for almost half an hour, yet no one appeared.
The bodyguard returned. He said that Jim wanted her to wait.
“Maybe no one would come out.”
Theo saw how Luna was shivering from the cold. He said rather heartbrokenly, “Why don’t we go home?
It was almost midnight. She had been stressed for a long time, and her body could not take it.
However, Luna shook her head. “I’m going to wait for my brother.” She had to ask him herself what was
going on and why he did, and was doing; everything he had done.
Theo sighed. He wanted to say something when the sound of footsteps came from the mansion.
There was also the sound of high heels clicking.
Luna immediately perked up and lifted her head.
“Luna.”
The first to appear was a woman in a white dress, holding an umbrella. She had a pretty face and
exquisite facial features. Her skin was fair and smooth.
Luna furrowed her brows and sized her up for a long time. She could not recognize this woman.
It looked like someone she did not know.
“Don’t you recognize me?” Looking into Luna’s confused eyes, the woman smiled and said, “I’m
Charlotte.”
