Joshua raised his eyebrows and flatly swept a glance across Luna’s face.
He has not seen her for a long time.
Ever since he knew the meaning of her design, he has been trying to avoid her at all costs.
Since she said that he was evil and aloof, a person that should have long died, why should he appear in
front of her and make each other unhappy?
Only that, Joshua did not expect that Luna would openly block his path in the streets.
Joshua lit a cigarette. He stood there elegantly mixed with a hint of thuggishness.
“I’m avoiding you?“ “Are you not?“
Luna raised her head and met his gaze fearlessly. “I have been trying to look for you all this while but fail
every single time. If I attend a company meeting, you will refuse to join in. If you’re not avoiding me, then
what are you doing?“
Joshua inhaled a huge puff of the cigarette and turned to look opposite the road.
Outside Bamboo Palace, Theo, in white, was still hugging a bouquet of roses. He lowered his head and
looked at his watch and looked around anxiously at the same time.
Joshua smiled and exhaled smoke at Luna. “Ms. Luna, you leave your boyfriend waiting for you, yet here
you are questioning me if I’m avoiding you or not. It’s not good, right?“
Luna bit her lips. Of course, she knew that being late was not a good thing. Obviously, she was already
late! However, to her, the chances of being able to bump into Joshua were much rarer.
Luna bit her lips. “Joshua, answer me. How long are you planning to avoid me? All this while, I have
thought long and hard. I have never done anything that made you angry or dissatisfied. Also, now I’ve
already helped your jewelry company have a great start. I want to know the reason you’re avoiding me.“
Joshua sneered, “You don’t need to know.“ Then, Joshua lifted his legs and was about to go around
Luna.
Luna furrowed her brows. She unrelentingly opened her arms wide, continuing blocking in his path.
“Joshua, how the hell have I offended you?“ Joshua was rather annoyed. He sneered. “Ms. Luna, don’t
you know it clearly?“
Joshua took another puff of the cigarette. He was wrapped in a mist of smoke. He swept Luna a flat
gaze.
“Evil, cold, something that should have long died but still existed. Isn’t this how I am in your opinion?“
Then, Joshua raised his hands and flung Luna’s hand away with force. He turned and left frigidly.
Luna remained in the same spot, stunned.
Cold, evil, and something that should have long died
Her brain stopped working for two seconds before Luna finally understood.
Previously, Joshua took away her design with a skull that she once drew for Nellie as a game.
Also, after Irene’s incident came to an end, she and Theo met with Joshua’s best friend, Jude.
When Jude entered, Theo and she were still discussing what the skull symbolizes.
Those words from Joshua seemed to be the explanation she gave Theo previously, about what the skull
meant to her.
At that thought, Luna’s body could not help but stiffen.
Thus…
Did Joshua think that she thought of him as someone evil, cold, and should be long dead?
Although back then when she drew this, this was her thought.
However, at that moment, she needed Joshua. She needed to get close to him.
“Tsk, tsk. Looks like you guys are in a fight.“ Suddenly, Luke’s thuggish voice rang out in her ears. Luna
lifted her head.
In front of her, Luke inhaled the last puff of the cigarette. He threw the cigarette butt into the bin. “ You
two are pretty interesting. The first time I met Joshua was because he wanted to rescue you.
“That day at the abandoned factory, seeing him carrying you away, I thought you two were a pair. Who
would have thought that you two weren’t?
What are you two playing at now? A lover’s quarrel?” Luna lowered her gaze. “You won’t understand.”
“I don’t understand you women, ” Luke sneered, “ you and your best friend. Both of you are equally
difficult to deal with.”
Upon hearing Luke mentioning Gwen, Luna lowered her head and straightened her coat.
She asked casually, “Is she still alright?”
