This was not right! This had the same taste as what Luna Gibson made!
His job needed him to socialize a lot. Back then, when they were still together, Joshua would always come home drunk. Every time that he was hungover, Luna Gibson would make him this soup to sober him up.
She liked to add a special spice into the soup, making it taste unique. Joshua has not tasted her soup for six years already.
However, at that moment, the soup that Luna did was exactly the same as Luna Gibson’s!
Joshua could not care for anything else. He immediately got down from the bed and rushed downstairs.
In the kitchen downstairs, Luna was making a bowl of oats for Nellie. She was engrossed in her work, so she did not notice the flurry of steps behind her.
When she noticed Joshua’s presence, he was already standing behind her.
Joshua turned her over and clasped her jaw with his large hands. He looked at her dangerously with his hawk-like eyes. “Who taught you how to make the soup?“
Luna was startled by his sudden actions. She instinctively wanted to resist, but he clasped her jaw tighter.
In the end, she looked at him. “No one. I made it myself.“
“Impossible.“ Joshua’s voice was raspy due to his hangover. “The taste is not right. Who taught you how to make it? Are you related to Luna Gibson? Did she send you here?“
The more he said the stronger he felt that his deduction was right.
A jewelry designer who was famous overseas came back to Banyan City. She did nothing related to her previous job, she did not further a second career, yet she came to Blue Bay Villa to be Nellie’s personal maid without any complaints.
She treated Nellie like her own daughter. She shared the same name with Luna Gibson. Her taste in home decor was the same as Luna Gibson, even the soup she made tastes exactly the same!
If it were not for her eyes, which looked different compared to Luna Gibson, he might even suspect that Luna the maid was Luna Gibson that had undergone plastic surgery!
However, he knew for a fact that she was not.
Luna Gibson would look at him with love and light. Luna the maid looked at him like he was a stranger. Those eyes could not belong to Luna Gibson.
Joshua was taking in everything, looking at Luna closely.
Luna panicked. She did not expect that a bowl of soup was enough to let Joshua suspect her!
She bit her lips and tried to calm herself down. She looked at him without any fear in her eyes. “Mr.
Lynch. I do not know what you are talking about. No one taught me how to make this soup. I got the recipe from the internet.“
Luna tried her best to talk in a slow manner, making her seem calm. “I don’t remember who I learned it from, but I have seen Luna Gibson’s Twitter account. Perhaps, she shared it there.“
Joshua’s hand that was clasping Luna’s jaw tensed.
Yes. Luna Gibson was a person that loved life. She loved to share a life with others. At that thought, Joshua let Luna go with detest.
His dark eyes turned cold. “I almost forgot. You’re a person that likes to imitate my wife.“
He remembered.
Luna from the start imitated Luna Gibson to get his attention. At that moment, this soup was probably just one of her tricks.
He looked at her coldly. “I hope you can be yourself. Don’t try to be my wife’s replacement. No one can replace Luna Gibson.“
Then, he turned around and left.
She did not know why, but Luna read a hint of loneliness in Joshua’s back.
