“Nope.”
Luna took a deep breath. She pushed aside the unhappy emotions that were aggravated by Aura. She
moved aside to let Malcolm sit and got him to sit next to her.
“When did you arrive?” “Just a moment ago.”
Malcolm smiled a little. He sipped his wine while observing the crowd. “It’s a pretty huge affair.”
Luna nodded. “After all, it’s Granny Lynch’s eightieth.”
Malcolm changed into a more comfortable posture. He smiled. “If I hadn’t investigated the Lynch family
before, I wouldn’t have dared to go up against Joshua, looking at the crowd here today.”
Luna paused a little. “You… want to go up against Joshua?”
“I intend to.”
“There’s no need, Malcolm.”
Luna sighed, “I’ll deal with my matters myself. I don’t need you to help me.”
“It’s just a business competition. ” Malcolm smiled a little. “But, if you need me, I’ll always be supporting
you.”
His words sounded too intimate. It made Luna a little uncomfortable.
After a while, she cleared her throat. “Have you seen Neil?“
“Hmm. “ Malcolm smiled. “I saw him outside, with two bodyguards. Your son is just like you. He has the
ability to compel people. He could make two burly adult men call him boss.“
Luna shook her head. “He has the ability, I don’t have it.“
If she had it, she would not have had to lose so much, to even be abandoned mercilessly by Joshua.
“You do.“ Malcolm probably saw through her. He smiled. “He just doesn’t know what’s good for him. If I
were him, I would never…“
Before he could finish his sentence, Luna interrupted him. “It’s starting.“ His words were forcefully cut off,
but Malcolm did not get angry.
He changed into a different position and leaned next to Luna, looking at the center stage.
“Everyone, welcome to Granny Lynch’s eightieth birthday banquet! “
The emcee spoke passionately. “Let’s invite Granny Lynch up on stage! “
At his words, Granny Lynch, who was in a long and elegant dress, walked to the center stage with the
help of Aura.
“Thank you. Thank you everyone for celebrating my birthday with me.“
Granny Lynch smiled while holding onto the
microphone. After a round of pleasantries, she grabbed Aura’s hand. “I have an important announcement
to make today! “
The relatives and friends were all nosy people. Every one of them knew about Joshua and Aura’s
engagement!
At that moment, Granny Lynch was holding onto Aura’s hand, saying that she had something to
announce. It was pretty self-explanatory.
They were in an uproar.
“Is Mr. Lynch finally going to announce his marriage with Aura?“
“It has been five years! The engagement is finally coming to an end! “
“I can’t wait to see this perfect match-made in heaven get married…“
People kept chiming in.
Luna bit her lips and looked at Aura on stage.
At that moment, Aura was also looking at her. Her eyes were filled with condescension and arrogance.
“You all got it!“
Granny Lynch and Aura exchanged looks, then she smiled and held her hand. “My grandson, Joshua
Lynch, has finally decided to marry Aura! “
It was an instant uproar.
After the uproar died down, they finally found a problem. If it was a marriage announcement, why was
Joshua, the man of the hour, not there?
”Granny, Ms. Gibson, where is Mr. Lynch?” Someone boldly asked.
