The night deepened.
Sitting in the hotel room, Malcolm Quinn looked at the scene on the big screen, frowning fiercely.
He had been looking for Luna for more than two hours now, combing through every corner of the hotel.
Finally, he spotted her slim figure in the CCTV recording from a roadside camera.
The woman on the screen was dead drunk, stumbling in a certain direction.
And the direction she was headed toward… was Joshua’s Blue Bay Villa.
White half-moons appeared on the tips of his fingers that were clutching the wine glass.
Luna only knew he was here today to attend Granny Lynch’s birthday party, but she did not know he
came purposely for her.
He and Joshua were sworn enemies.
The Quinn family’s business endeavors didn’t extend to Banyan City.
He rescheduled a few meetings just to come here and see her.

But the woman he cared about and valued above everything, not only did she drink for another man
right in front of him, later, dead drunk, she stumbled to his house! His phone rang again beside him. He
answered it coldly.
“Boss, there’s only two more hours until your flight, should I delay it?”
“No.”
He closed his eyes silently. “It’s time to go.”
In the morning, Luna was rudely awakened by her ringing phone.
Its incessant ringing annoyed her.
In a daze, she grabbed the phone from on top of the bedside cabinet and answered without even
looking to check who was the caller. “Hello…”
Her lazy tone silenced the caller.
A moment later, the man on the other end coughed quietly, “You’re Luna?”
She frowned, massaging her temples to relieve her headache from her hangover, and said softly, “Of
course I am… who are you?”
“I am Adrian Lynch. I’m right downstairs. Tell Joshua to come down.”
Luna paused.
Adrian Lynch?
Downstairs?
Joshua?
She opened her eyes tiredly. “Mr. Lynch, I don’t…” Before she could finish, she paused in shock.
This was Joshua’s bedroom!!!
She lowered her head in a daze and looked at the phone in her hands.
It was not hers…

“Miss Luna, I understand you youngsters’ lifestyle, but I have been waiting for almost an hour. Ask
Joshua to come down right now! “
With that, Adrian hung up the phone. Placing the phone down, Luna was dazed.
She turned around stiffly, looking at the big bed behind her.
And met Joshua’s deep, soulful eyes. Their eyes met.
“I…”
Luna opened her mouth, but only a single syllable popped out.
Wasn’t she drinking with Malcolm last night? Why would she wake up in Joshua’s bed?
She looked down at both of their ruined clothes, strewn across the floor, and the hickeys on her body,
without any further explanation, she understood what happened last night…
Luna felt as if her head was about to explode.
”You were drunk.”
Joshua sat up, elegantly reaching for the robe beside him and put it on. ”I was drunk too.”
Even though he too was surprised at the sight that greeted his eyes, he was much calmer than her.
