Theo’s hand that held Luna stalled a little.
“Joshua, I want to go home…“ Luna, in Theo’s arms, subconsciously muttered once more.
She sounded wasted in her drunken state. What she said before, only Theo could hear, but what she muttered the next time, everyone heard it clearly.
Mr. Scott was stunned.
Alice’s face started to turn pale, and she cautiously looked at Joshua at the corner of her eyes.
Joshua looked at Luna, and his gaze was deep. “She’s drunk.“
Theo furrowed his brows and hoisted Luna upward instantly. He shot Joshua a glare before he walked off with Luna in his arms.
Joshua’s gaze remained in the direction where they left, brows tightly furrowed, even when they had left.
“It looks like Luna truly is drunk…“ said Alice tentatively as she observed Joshua’s reaction in fear.
Joshua flatly responded before looking elsewhere. He lowered his head and continued eating.
Looking at his perfectly handsome side profile, Alice smiled on the surface, but she inwardly gnashed her teeth.
That way, Luna’s identity would be exposed sooner or later. She had to remove Luna from Joshua.
When they got out of the hotel, Luna kept yelling Joshua’s name throughout the entire journey.
Theo did not know where her hotel was, so he simply brought her to an inn.
When they reached the room in the inn, Luna started hugging the toilet bowl and vomited into it.
The sight broke Theo’s heart. He passed her some water. “Since you can’t drink, why did you do it?
Even if others force you to drink, you don’t have to bring it upon yourself, right?“
Luna looked up in a daze, her eyes glazed with tears. “But, today is the first time I get to join in a business event with Joshua after our marriage. His business partner asked me to drink, so how could I not drink? I don’t want to be a burden to him. I don’t want him to think that I’m useless.“
Luna then retched into the toilet bowl once more. Theo was baffled.
