I Am The Luna (Moonlight Muse) novel Chapter 263

Chapter 0263 

“Afternoon Ms Toussaint.‘ 

*Afternoon Mr Payne,” I reply as I sit back. 

“I like it when you call me that.” He says, sauntering over to my desk as the door 

slowly thuds shut behind him. 

“Keep at that and people will think we are together.” 

“That’s not a bad thing.” He winks at me. 

I shake my head as I stand up. “Mr Harrsion gave me these and I don’t know what to make of them. It’s Sebastian’s plan for Mr Harrison’s project. Why would Mr 

Harrison give it to me?” 

“Unless someone told him to give it to you… have you handled these with bare 

hands?” 

“Yeah…” 

He frowns. “Go wash your hands and I need some gloves. It could be poisoned…” 

I nod, quickly doing as he says before I retrieve some latex gloves from the first aid box, and pass them to him. 

“So, did you find anything?” I ask as he begins examining the file.” 

“Yes, and I think we might know who it was that Annalise met in my pack.” He answers, his brows furrowed as he examines the file. 

“Who?” I ask, my heart skipping a beat. 

“Check it out.” 

He motions at his briefcase, and I pick it up, opening it quickly as he continues 

examining the paper. 

There’s a laptop inside and I flip it open and instantly recognise the lavender- themed décor from that New Year’s Ball. 

My heart is racing as I watch intently, 

“The man in the dark brown,” Atticus says. “Keep observing him.” 

I notice him after a few seconds. He blends in well and I don’t know why, but his 

posture feels familiar…. 

Almost like an itch, you can’t quite reach… 

I watch as he disappears through those doors and then the camera switches to that very corridor, where I had heard Annalise talking to someone in one of the rooms. 

It’s dark and you can’t see his face as he walks swiftly down the hall. 

“I feel like I recognise him…” I murmur. 

“We couldn’t get it any clearer, but when he leaves, there’s a clearer shot, and I think I’ve seen him around here.” He says, now leaning over me as he speeds it up a little 

“It’s like he knows where the cameras are. He hides away well.” I say, not once is his 

face at a clear angle. 

“I think it’s on purpose because in the shot that I’m talking about, he seems a little 

startled and it’s like he looked up on reflex,” he replies. 

I watch as the man disappears into a room, and then I see myself coming down the 

hallway. 

“Still as beautiful as you were back then.” He murmurs 

I look up at him, but it’s a mistake as our eyes meet and he’s a little too close. His 

gaze dips to my lips before I quickly turn away and look back at the screen. 

He chuckles lightly, brushing it off, but I know him better than that. 

I hate that I’m hurting him too…. 

He speeds up the video a little before he stops. 

“Around here “he says, and that’s when I suddenly sit forward, my heart 

thundering as the man turns his head sharply and at that moment I catch a glimpse 

of none other than-
