Sloane’s mouth fell open, her planned tirade suddenly choked off by Grant’s sharp retort. Left speechless, frustration boiled over. She stepped forward, grabbing his shoulders and shaking him. “Grant, wake up! How can you possibly compare Luna to this seductress? Back when you were with Luna behind Oriana’s back, at least… at least her father could invest in you! Luna could solve your problems, pull strings for you! But this… this creature, what good is she besides luring you into bed?”

Her words grew more frantic, tumbling out uncontrollably. “She’s not even as good as Oriana was! At least Oriana’s heart was in the right place”

“But I’ve already lost Oriana once!” Grant’s face was taut, each word ground out between clenched teeth. “Am I supposed to lose her a second time?”

“What do you mean, a second time? Grant, are you still hung up on Oriana…” Sloane trailed off, confused. Then, her gaze inadvertently landed on Jonathan’s profile. It was like a physical blow to her head. Her eyes widened in disbelief.

“You… you’re using her as a substitute for Oriana”

In her earlier rage, she hadn’t really looked at Jonathan. Now, seeing her clearly, she understood completely why Grant was so defiant, why he insisted on having Jonathan. Grant had never been this way over Luna. The girl hiding behind him… her face bore a striking, seventy or eighty percent resemblance to Oriana’s!

Hearing Grant confess this so openly in front of her, Jonathan seethed inwardly but dared not show it. Her face only displayed a fitting mixture of innocent distress and shame.

Sloane was utterly stunned. “What kind of twisted fate is this? Grant, Oriana belongs to another man now! How can you still be fixated on her?”

“I regret it. I regret using Oriana!” Grant took a deep, ragged breath. “After losing her, I finally understood what true agony feels like. But she refuses to forgive me. I can’t let go, I can’t forgive myself. I think of her until her face is all see in my mind. What else can I do?”

“You-!” This was the first time Sloane had heard Grant express such raw, intense emotion. A complex mix of feelings washed over her, and she could only finally slap her thigh and sigh in exasperation. “You two… what a cursed pair!”

Back then, she’d been so sure Oriana would never leave Grant, and she’d assumed Grant didn’t care for Oriana that much. That was why she’d felt free to act so shamelessly behind. Oriana’s back. Who could have guessed that once she was gone, he’d be unable to forget her? A total self–torture.

Sloane’s chest heaved. Seeing Grant like this, she knew there was no stopping him. He was

Steadying herself, Sloane softened her tone, adopting a placating approach. “Grant, if you want to keep a woman on the side, I won’t stop you. But you have to know what’s important. What day is today? Even if you’ve lost interest in Luna now, the child she’s carrying is yours! You have to think of the child first!

“The housekeeper told me Luna thinks of you day and night, longing for you so much she can’t eat or sleep properly. How can a child grow well like that? Last month, I went to burn offerings at your parents‘ graves, Grant. I told them the good news about their future grandchild. Do you want to disappoint them in the afterlife?”

Pressing a hand to her heart as if in physical pain, Sloane laid down the law. “I don’t care about your… extracurricular activities. All I want is for the child in Luna’s belly to be born safe and sound. After that, you can divorce or whatever, I won’t interfere. But the Holloway family’s first legitimate grandson must be healthy!”

Grant’s expression remained dark and unreadable.
