Luna closed her eyes.
She had reasons to suspect that Alice was probably the one that posted the video online.
Alice was deliberately attempting to put Luna in a dilemma.
On one hand was her career, which she has worked hard for many years and wanted to continue doing so for the rest of her life.
On the other hand were her biological parents, who raised her for the past 20 years.
Both were equally important to Luna.
Luna secretly clenched her fists tightly. She had been too naive. She was so engrossed in her work for the past half a month that she almost forgot Alice, a ticking time bomb, was near her.
After a long while, the car stopped.
Joshua’s voice rang in her ears. “Get down.“ Only then did Luna open her eyes.
She opened the car door and realized that Joshua had sent her back to Swan Lake Residences.
“Thank you, “ she thanked him and left.
“Luna.“ The moment she turned around, Joshua called after her gently.
She furrowed her brows and turned back subconsciously. “Is there anything I can help you with, Mr. Lynch?“
Joshua elegantly placed his hands on the leather seat. His gaze was calm. “Aren’t you going to invite me up for a meal?“
Luna furrowed her brows.
Joshua might say that he wanted to head up for a meal, but once he was upstairs and alone with her, no one would be able to say what might happen.
Even if she was desperate to bear his child to cure Nigel, due to the complicated situation that day, she could not bring herself to be excited.
After a long while, Luna let out a long breath. “If the plagiarizing incident didn’t happen today, I’m more than willing to invite you up for a meal to celebrate, Mr. Lynch, but now…“
Luna could not help but sneer. “Now that the Lynch Group’s Director of Design is being under fire for plagiarism and the Lynch Group’s stock prices have been plummeting, I don’t think you’d want to celebrate either, Mr. Lynch.“
Joshua raised his eyebrows and smiled. “I never knew that you paid attention to Lynch Group’s stock prices.“
