NovelEnglishAlice turned around and shot Joshua a puzzled look. “ Didn’t I…birth two children?“
Was one of the children adopted?
Joshua let out a bitter chuckle as soon as he saw her baffled expression. He was wrong, after all.
Alice shot him another confused glance before she finally left the room.
At the design department.
Luna’s finger was wrapped in a bandage. At that moment, she stood outside her office as she
instructed Shannon and the rest to find an empty desk for Alice.
Seeing that Alice had returned, Luna glanced at her and said, “Since you don’t like my office, I’ve
requested the staff to find a nice, spacious desk for you. You don’t have to do anything in the
meantime, so just try to figure out what goes on in the design department every day and get to know
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtthe rest of your colleagues.“
Alice rolled her eyes, turned around, and plopped down in the seat. Then, she gave Luna a wry smile. “
Thank you so much for looking after me, Director Luna.“
Luna frowned and shot her a glance but said nothing in response. Instead, she turned around and
entered her office.
To her surprise, Alice immediately got up and followed her into the room. She closed the door behind
her and said coldly, “Luna.“
Luna turned around and raised her eyebrows questioningly. “Is something the matter?“
“Neil and Nellie. One of them is adopted, right?“ Luna frowned. “Why are you suddenly asking me
this?“
“Just tell me yes or no.“ Alice exhaled and lowered her voice before saying, “Just now, when I was in
Joshua’s office, he asked me if I was sure I had given birth to two children.“
Luna’s breath caught in her throat as soon as she heard that.
Joshua would never ask a question like that out of the blue. Plus, he had taken her photo away…
Luna had a bad feeling about it. She bit down on her lip and stared at Alice. “What did you answer
him?“
“I said I was sure, of course.“ Alice rolled her eyes. “ Tell me: Did you or did you not adopt one of them?
I always thought both Neil and Nellie belonged to you, but if one of them was adopted, you better tell
me who it is! “
She narrowed her eyes angrily and added, “If Joshua finds out I’m not the real Luna Gibson, I’ll make
you and your children’s lives a living hell! “
Luna heaved a deep sigh. “They’re both my children.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmDon’t worry.“
“That’s good, then! “ Alice rolled her eyes at Luna before she left the room, closing the door behind her.
Luna sat back down in her office chair and stared blankly in the direction of the door.
Joshua must have realized something. Otherwise, he would not have asked Alice a question like that.
Luna wrapped her arms around herself when, all of a sudden, she felt a chill run down her entire body.
If Joshua found out about Nigel’s existence…
Luna did not even dare imagine what would happen next.
If Joshua found out about Nigel, she would have nothing to fight for anymore.
Luna continued to feel dazed the entire morning. She was terrified that Joshua would summon her into
his office and demand to know why she had kept one of her children secret.
After what seemed like forever, she made it to noon. Luna let out a sigh and started packing her things
to head to lunch. All of a sudden, she received a call from Joshua.
“Come to my office,“ Joshua’s steely voice rang out from the other end of the line. “I’ve asked a photo
restoration specialist to fix the picture for you, but I have something to ask you.“
