The entire table grew silent, apart from the sound of Gavin sipping his water.
Alice stared at Joshua with an expression of disbelief and horror, unable to trust her ears. Was Joshua
suggesting that another woman feed him in front of his wife?
”I don’t want to do that.” Luna shot Joshua a dismissive look before she glanced at the frozen- in- shock
Alice. She then lowered her head and picked up her phone, about to read the news.
Alice smiled. This was the first time she and Luna agreed on something. ”Alright. Since Ms. Luna refuses
to do so, I guess I should feed you.”
”What right does she have to refuse? ” Joshua tapped against the table with his left hand. ”I injured
myself because of her. I had to get stitches! It’s not too much to ask her to feed me in return, is it?”
Luna was still reluctant to do so, but she did not have much of a choice. She lifted her head to glare at
him. ”Mrs. Lynch is already feeding you, isn’t she?”
”Yes, but she hasn’t eaten yet. Since you’ re already done, why don’ t you take over so she can eat? I got
injured because of you, and I now want you to feed me. Is that too much to ask?”
Luna paused for a moment, then came to a sudden realization. The only reason why Joshua wanted her
to feed him was so Alice could take a break. Alice had not even taken a single bite of her food ever since
they stepped foot in the restaurant. This was Joshua’s way of expressing his concern toward Alice.
‘Why hasn’t he ever shown me that sort of concern before?’ Luna could not help but think to herself.
Despite that, she scoffed and stood up anyway. She inched past Gavin and walked over to Alice. ”Please
switch seats with me, Mrs. Lynch.”
Alice bit down on her lip and shot Joshua a helpless glance. ”I ‘in not even hungry, Joshua. I’ll eat after
I’ve finished feeding you.”
Joshua stared at Alice and let out a chuckle. ”It’s okay. You should eat. You haven’ t eaten all day, and I
wouldn’t want you to starve.”
Alice had no choice but to relent. She gritted her teeth and glared at Luna before she got out of her chair
and sat down next to Gavin. She picked up her cutlery and started eating somewhat rashly.
Luna let out a sigh before she picked up Joshua’s fork and knife. Then, she stabbed a chunk of lettuce
with the fork and brought it up to his mouth. ”Open.”
Luna’s tone was cold and harsh, but she deliberately forked the food Joshua liked. Joshua smiled at her
before he opened his mouth obediently.
Luna continued to feed him that way. She was not gentle at all, and her actions were firm and lacked
feeling. Despite that, however, Joshua could not help but feel a tingle of warmth in his heart.
He recalled the nights where he held her against
him. At that time, she was tender and affectionate, a stark contrast to how she treated him at this table.
She treated him so coldly as if she wanted nothing to
do with him at all.
Joshua could not help but wonder which was the true Luna. What were her true feelings toward him?
Joshua did not realize that he was staring blankly at Luna, but Alice certainly noticed. Her motions
became more and more aggressive.
“Ahem,” Gavin gently cleared his throat when he noticed Alice’s change in mood.
Joshua finally came to and hastily shifted his gaze from Luna. “Open, ” Luna ordered again as she
brought another forkful of food up to his mouth.
