It only hurt a little when Luna had to copy the documents during the daytime.
“Mr. Lynch punished me yesterday. Mr. Quinn yelled at me today, too.“ Lily lifted her head. “I know my
fault.“
Luna paused for a while before she gently patted Lily’s shoulders. “I know you have no ill intentions.
Don’t mind them; I understand. I’ll pay more attention to this problem in the future. I’ll also keep in touch
with Malcolm more frequently.“
Lily was stunned, not expecting Luna would react in such a way. She was so stunned that she was
suddenly lost for words.
Nellie sighed as she gently pecked Luna on the cheeks. Then, she turned and grabbed Lily’s hand. “
Lily, let’s go!“
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtSeeing Lily taking Nellie away, Neil slightly furrowed his brows. “Why are you being so nice to her?“
“Who doesn’t make mistakes? “ Luna sighed as she grabbed Neil’s hand. “She took great care of the
three of you when we were overseas all those years. I’m not going to be petty with her.“
Luna held Neil’s hand as they headed to the bus stop, telling about her day as they did, about Zach
and Yuri, and about her new colleague, Bonnie Lane.
“Mommy, you’re too trusting,“ came a child’s grim voice abruptly.
Luna paused for a while before realizing it came from the necklace around her neck.
Nigel made the necklaces for everyone when he first got to it. Later on, because Luna and Nigel were
in a cold stand -off over coming back to the country, she took it off.
After the Ferris Wheel incident, Luna put it back on. “Why am I too trusting?“ Luna furrowed her brows.
“I’ve checked up on Bonnie’s background.“ Nigel, on the other end of the line, leaned against the bed in
the patient ward. The afternoon sun shined lazily on him.
“She graduated and majored in Mass Communications. She’s no designer intern, but a… reporter. Yes,
she’s a reporter that has always covered negative news about Aura Gibson. After the incident with
Aura, she suddenly resigned from her job at the newspaper publishing company and assumed another
identity, becoming an intern in the Lynch Group’s design department.“
Nigel’s voice was very low. “At first, I thought that she’s friends with Aura, deliberately publishing bad
publicity on Aura, to help push up Aura’s fame. I then realized that she just despises Aura to the core.
She’s pretty objective when she covers other people, but she’s feisty when it comes to Aura.“
Nigel softened his voice. “Mommy, perhaps you could get close to her. I think there must be some
deeper connection between her and Aura, but you have to be careful. She doesn’t seem friendly.“
Luna paused for a while and felt as if her brain was going to explode. How was that possible?
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmBonnie’s obedient look inexplicably appeared on her mind.
However, Nigel’s research would not be wrong, too.
She brought Neil home with a mind full of questions. The two of them just went up when they saw
someone sitting by their front door.
Upon seeing them, Natasha immediately got up. “Ms. Luna. I heard that you’re working in the Lynch
Group.”
Her haggard face broke Luna’s heart.
Luna pursed her lips. “Why are you here?” she asked as she opened the door. “Let’s go in first. Have
you been waiting here for long?”
“There’s no need.” Natasha subconsciously took a step back. “I’m not that acquainted with you yet. I
only wanted to ask you if you have any news about my daughter.”
Luna’s hand on the doorknob paused a little.
‘Actually, I am also your daughter, ‘ Luna thought to herself.
