Luna was completely stunned. Oh no, Alexander was suspicious of her.
“Is it important?” After quite some time, she asked him back as she looked at Alexander.
Alexander pressed the question. “Isn’t it? What else are you hiding from me?”
Luna stayed silent for a while, then said with a smile, “About that, you’ll have to discover it yourself! However, there’s one thing you can be sure of. I won’t hurt you.”
She had too many secrets. If she told Alexander everything, she would be dragged to be experimented upon and become a topic of interest.
She wasn’t that foolish.
Alexander looked into Luna’s eyes. He wanted to find something in her eyes. But her eyes were too clear, so he couldn’t find any signs that she was lying.
He lowered his head and kissed her lips, and then said, “It’s fine. When you’re willing to tell me, then you can tell me!”
They had plenty of time. He could wait until that day.
The two of them then drove back to the mansion. Alexander had also said that he would dispatch someone to ask Dyson Suth about this, and who was the one that told him to trouble her.
Luna stopped him. If Alexander’s men appeared, they would be on high alert.
“I don’t usually appear outside, let me go!” After giving it a long thought, she still felt that it would be best to do it herself. “Not to mention that no one would be serious with me even when I’m exposed because I’m a crazy woman, right?”
Alexander wanted to stop her, but when he remembered the men lying on the ground just now, he nodded in the end. He said, “Alright, but I’ll arrange several people to protect you from the dark. If you really encountered Dyson Suth and can’t win, just give up. No need to fight fire with fire, alright?”
Dyson Suth would murder if he was forced to.
And now Luna’s personality was a little bit tough, his worries were not without good reason.
Luna looked at him and couldn’t help but burst into laughter. “You really do look like a dad.”
Alexander, “…”
“But are you sure you’re fine with me walking over just like this?” Luna immediately used this chance to change the subject. “I thought you would stop me!”
Alexander glanced at her and said, “Would you stay if I don’t let you go?”
After the short time they spent together, he didn’t think that Luna would be someone that obedient.
Rather than letting her sneak out, it was safer for him to do it this way.
“True!” Luna blinked and looked at Alexander with her sparkling eyes. “But seeing that you understand so much about me, when are you going to fall for me?”
After a brief period of training with those people just now, she was able to relieve the pressure in her chest left by the original. She was feeling quite good at this time.
The flirting came so suddenly that Alexander wasn’t expecting them at all. He said, “…Can you be a little more reserved?”
Luna pretended to give it a thought, and then raised her head with a faint smile, “Sorry, no can do.”
Alexander, “…”
Seeing his helpless expression, Luna decided to stop teasing him and said, “Eve’s art exhibition is tomorrow. I’ve collected some proof. I’ll send it to your phone later?”
Alexander said, “Sure.”
Because he still had something to do back in the company, Alexander once again drove back to his company.
Luna went home and back into her room and then sent the things to Alexander. After a few minutes, he responded by giving her an address.
There was no need to guess that the address belonged to Dyson.
Luna replied, “Thanks.”
When Alexander saw those two words, he couldn’t help but feel something was missing.
Alexander, “Don’t you have anything else to show?”
Luna, “…”
Luna, “I’ll help you get whatever you want from the art exhibition.”
Alexander’s smile was gone from his face, and he didn’t reply after that.
Luna was getting nervous as she held the phone in her hand. Didn’t he want to make an acquaintance with Master Gideon?
Alexander had been so weird lately!
Ah well, whatever. She needed to go to Dyson’s territory and walk around to gather some information.
Luna walked towards the full-length mirror and looked at the long dress that she was wearing.
Unfortunately, it would attract too much attention if she walked over like this.
She changed into her gym outfit. Her brown, wavy hair was tied up using a hairband. She had also removed all her makeup.
Now, she looked like an innocent, harmless student.
Especially those eyes of hers, which were like the sea under the night sky. Dark and deep beyond belief.
After greeting the butler, she then drove away in a car.
Meanwhile, at the Brooke residence.
Flora’s face was filled with disappointment as she looked at the man in front of her.
“Since when did that little b*tch become that strong and deal with everyone that Dyson Suth sent over?!”
“How would I know? I’m thinking of ways too. Why are you so nervous?!”
“Brother, you have to help me! Eve’s reputation had all been ruined by that little b*tch!”
“Alright, I know. Let me go and talk with Dyson again. There must be a way to handle her!”
“Wouldn’t Dyson call us out? I heard that Alexander White went to look for that girl too.”
“He won’t, don’t worry. What about you? When will you deal with Emmett’s problem?”
“Don’t talk to me about that useless kid! He makes me so mad! Once Eve marries into the Oak family and stabilizes her position, Emmett’s future will be secure. The main thing we have to do now is to make him quit gambling. If this continues, my husband’s wealth is going to be used to pay his debts.”
“I’ll have someone to take him back! Damn it, how much money have we lost because of him?! And he still doesn’t want to change!”
With that, he quickly called a number. “Immediately send someone to Golden Paradise and get Emmett Brooke back to the Brooke residence! Right now! Yes, it’s an order! If anything happens, I’ll handle it!”
Flora sighed and said, “It’s fine, Brother. Let’s end this here today! You should go. My husband’s almost back.”
Trumble Springfield stood up and nodded, “Alright, I’ll leave then.”
Once Flora escorted him to the door, Trumble suddenly turned around and asked her in a whisper, “Do you know that Adam Hill moved his entire family back to Auburn? Julius doesn’t know about you and Adam, does he?”
Flora’s expression changed slightly. “No. However, when I went to play cards with Mrs. Smith and the others, I met his wife. She was exactly the same as a few years ago. She didn’t socialize at all. How narrow-minded!”
How could the daughter of a small family be worthy of the son of a large, rich family?
If it weren’t because she had already chosen Julius then, Grace Forrester would not even be in the picture.
However, Trumble seemed to have seen through her thoughts and quietly advised her, “Don’t do anything stupid. Currently, we have to focus on having Julius work for the Oaks, and let Eve become the Oak family’s madam.”
“Don’t worry, I know.”
However if Adam Hill were back, even if she wanted a mountain of gold, he would give her one without hesitation as long as she asked, due to their relationship all those years ago.
She had saved his life back then!
