He paused thoughtfully before proposing, “Since Mr. and Mrs. Sterling are here, why don’t we take this opportunity to visit him together? We can sincerely plead your case to Xander.”

Luna felt her world collapsing.

How could she have anticipated Grant would betray her like this?

How could the Sterling family possibly know about her close connection with Xander?

Just as Grant finished speaking, Bramwell and Evelyn both gasped in astonishment, their faces registering complete shock.

“Wait, Mr. Xander Stone? Luna, is it the general I’m thinking of?”

“Who else could it be?! Luna, how do you know such an immensely powerful figure? Why didn’t you tell us

sooner!”

Bramwell looked frantic, as if he’d missed out on hundreds of millions!

Facing Bramwell’s furious glare, Luna’s heart quivered.

She adopted a pitiful expression, her eyes instantly reddening as if she had suffered a great injustice.

“Daddy, Mommy, have you forgotten? I told you last year at the mobilization meeting that I met Mr. Stone purely by chance! I only send greetings during holidays! And after coming to Jindiwood, I only visited out of courtesy, never with any ulterior motives.”

Here, Luna gave a heavy sob, clearly starting to cry. “Could you possibly think that if I were close to Mr. Stone, I would deliberately hide it from everyone?”

Finished speaking, as if unable to bear the bitter pain of being misunderstood by her closest family, Luna buried her head in her hands, her shoulders trembling uncontrollably.

“Baby, don’t cry! It breaks my heart to see you cry!”

Evelyn hurriedly stood up to hug and comfort her in a low voice, her own eyes reddening as she complained to a now–awkward Bramwell. “What kind of talk was that? Luna isn’t some ungrateful wretch! You were there at the event back then too! You forgot yourself. How can you blame her?”

Bramwell opened and closed his mouth, finally softening his tone to apologize.

“Yes, I’m wrong, I remember now! It was all Oriana’s fault that time! If she hadn’t burst in and messed things up with the speech draft, how could I have forgotten? Luna, I apologize.”

Even Grant chimed in to coax her for a good while before Luna finally lifted her head, her nose red and tear stains on her face.

“I’m not angry… I’m just a little sad that Daddy didn’t believe me…”

“Yes, I deserve punishment. Luna, you say how, and I’ll accept any punishment.”

Luna chided playfully, “How could I bear to punish Daddy?”

“Ah, still my good girl! It’s good that we’ve cleared the air as a family!”

Bramwell laughed, “Since you didn’t manage to see Mr. Stone during the Spring Festival, how about we try again this time?”

Luna secretly sneered. Of course Bramwell wouldn’t let it go!

For the sake of his precious son, he wanted to use up her last bit of connection?

There was no way Luna would agree!

She didn’t commit immediately, instead being vague. “Let’s see… Mr. Stone is a very busy man; we might not get to see him. I’ll ask him in a few days if it’s convenient.”

“Alright, Luna, remember to ask.”

“Okay.”

With that topic addressed, the family, each harboring their own thoughts, began ordering and eating.

Oriana hadn’t expected Micah to come pick her up from work specially.

Bowing her head as she got into the car, she saw Micah whose long legs seemed to take up half the cabin, and a smile bloomed in the corners of her eyes.

“What are you doing here?”

She closed the car door, then suddenly thought of something, her expression mixing helplessness and warmth. “It’s not because of what I told you this afternoon, is it? I really didn’t take it to heart.”

Micah reached out, one arm wrapping around her waist, the other supporting behind her knees, and effortlessly pulled her onto his lap.

Oriana’s face flushed red. “Micah!”

“I see nothing,” Kieran said stiffly, staring straight ahead, as he silently raised the partition.

Micah laughed, repeating Kieran’s words. “See, he says he sees nothing.”

Oriana tapped his forehead. “You’re the champion of self–deception.”
