“Since you’re Theo’s mother, I won’t expose the recording out of respect. However, if I ever catch you baselessly spreading fake rumors behind my back one more time, not only will I sue you for defamation, but I’ll publish this recording and expose your true colors for the world to see.
“I want everyone to find out what a horrible person Theo’s mother and Mrs. Allen of Allen Group is.“
With that, Luna turned around and walked out of the bathroom.
Celeste glowered at her with hatred seething in her eyes.
She was the mother of a world-famous artist and the Allen Group’s CEO’s wife. How could she let anyone treat her like that?
How could she let a b*tch like Luna threaten her? Celeste bit her lip and recalled what Alice had said to her earlier.
“This woman hurt herself with a cutting knife. It was just a small injury, but she kept pretending and coerced my husband into thinking it was a big deal. My husband values her as an employee very much, so he took her to the hospital multiple times and even spent the entire night by her bedside… Little did we know, this was just another one of her manipulation tactics…“
Celeste narrowed her eyes and fixated her gaze on Luna’s right shoulder.
Although Luna wore a jacket, Celeste could still make out a bulge on her right shoulder that looked suspiciously like a thick layer of bandage.
She narrowed her eyes and lunged towards the hallway and in Luna’s direction—
“Hey lady, what are you doing?“ Before Celeste could grab onto Luna’s shoulder, however, someone’s hand reached out and stopped her.
The hand belonged to Samson, one of the new assistants that Luna had hired this day.
He sneered and flung Celeste away. “Director Luna’s shoulder is injured. You better not touch her.
Otherwise, Lynch Group will make you pay for it. “
Luna did not even realize what Celeste attempted until Samson stopped her. She turned around and smirked at Celeste. “Mrs. Allen, was I being too kind to you?“
