“Yes.“ Lucas nodded.
“You have been with Ms. Gibson for so many years, yet you have never bought clothes for her once. But, today, you especially picked two sets of clothes to give to Luna.
“Last time, no servants in the house would dare to defy you. Those that did would have been fired.
However, Luna has contradicted you so many times, yet you are not mad at her. Neither did you fire her. Also…“
“Enough.“ Joshua coldly pursed his lips. He interrupted Lucas. “I will pay attention to the distance between her and me in the future.“
Then, Joshua closed his eyes and lazily leaned back.
“Lucas. This is the first mistake you’ve made after working for me for so many years. I ‘ll forgive you for now, but it won’t happen again.“
Lucas was delighted. “Are you going to pursue this matter?“
He meant Aura. Joshua smiled coldly. “I have my plans.“
The report of the Ferris Wheel incident was not out yet. He could not determine if the incident has to do with Aura or not, but the incident that morning would not be forgotten so easily.
“But…“ Lucas wanted to say something else when Joshua suddenly opened his eyes.
The temperature in the car dropped to sub-zero. Lucas immediately shut up and started the car.
Ever since coming back from Aura’s apartment, Luna has been unhappy. Even Nellie could see that she was not in a good mood.
“Aunty, could you make me some pastries? You’ll feel better eating pastries! “
Nellie was hugging her stuffed animal in her arms in the living room. She looked at Luna with her round eyes, her tone cautious.
Luna gently sighed and patted Nellie on the head. “ I’ll go and make some for you now.“
Then, she went to the kitchen and got busy. Work would make her forget all about her emotions.
Nellie was lying on the sofa looking at Luna working while sending messages to her brothers.
Nellie: (Mommy is in a bad mood. Who did it?] Neil: (Most probably Nigel.]
Nellie: (Why?]
Neil: (Because Nigel became a spammer and created a program to scold Mommy! ]
Nellie: (How horrible!] Nigel: (…]
Nellie: (Nigel, don’t worry, hand it to me. I’ll cheer Mommy up! ]
Then, Nellie kept her phone. She started planning on ways to cheer Luna up.
However, the mind of the adults was really hard to grasp. Nellie thought that she was doing a good job cheering her Mommy up, but Luna’s smile was always quite flat. There were still hints of sadness in her eyes.
Nellie tried all ways to cheer Luna up all the way until before bedtime, but to no avail.
Nellie went to sleep in regret.
After putting Nellie to bed, Luna received a message. It was from Nigel.
It only wrote, (I’m sorry].
Seeing the message, Luna became silent. She knew that Nigel sent her this message because he was a spammer and was partly responsible for spreading the rumors and insulting her online, so he was apologizing to her.
