Luna did not sleep well the entire night, so even though she had drunk soup before she went to bed,
she still woke up the next morning with an ear- splitting headache.
Despite this, she forced herself to crawl out of bed and glanced at her phone.
There were two new messages from Joshua.
(Fiona was fiddling with my phone just now, and she sent you a message by mistake.]
(Just pretend like you never saw it.]
Luna felt like her headache grew even more severe. She felt as though someone continuously poked
her scalp with a needle, and the pain was starting to irritate her.
She tossed her phone aside and closed her eyes, recalling Joshua’s messages.
Fiona had sent the message to her by mistake and wanted her to pretend like she never saw it.
Joshua was a smart man, so Luna guessed that he probably knew what Fiona was actually trying to
do: showcasing her authority.
Despite that, he still tolerated her behavior, so what right did Luna have to object to this?
Luna lied in bed for a long time before she finally exhaled and crawled out of bed to get ready for work.
As soon as she stepped through the doors of the design department, she saw Shannon gesturing to
her.
Luna asked, puzzled, “What’s wrong?“
Shannon pointed at Luna’s office door, which was still closed, and mouthed, “Fiona is inside.“
Luna’s brows furrowed. What was Fiona doing in her office so early in the morning?
“How could you let her in?“
Even though Luna did not keep valuables in her office, it was still her workspace, and therefore
contained project proposals and drafts of her designs. These might not seem like valuable items to
some, but to Luna, the consequences would be dire if she lost any of them.
Shannon let out a feeble sigh and approached Luna, lowering her voice as she apologized, “She’s the
CEO’s girlfriend. She insisted on entering your office, so we had no choice but to let her…“
Luna pursed her lips.
Shannon was right. She could not blame them for letting Fiona into her office.
Fiona had sent her a video using Joshua’s phone to demonstrate her authority. Even then, Joshua still
managed to find an excuse for her actions, claiming that she had sent the message by mistake.
Even though Fiona had barged into her office without permission, Luna knew she would not face any
repercussions for her actions. Even if Fiona somehow burned her entire office down, Joshua would still
find a way to excuse her behavior.
Luna let out an exhale and regained her composure before she walked to her office and pushed the
door open.
Inside the office, Fiona was standing with her body tilted slightly, pouring a sachet of white powder into
Luna’s water.
The powder soon dissolved in the water and disappeared entirely from view.
While pouring the sachet, Fiona muttered under her breath, grinning, “She can’t possibly tell.“
Shannon, who had followed Luna into the room, spotted what Fiona was doing and immediately roared,
“Ms. Blake, what are you doing?“
Was she trying to poison Director Luna? How dare she?
Even if Joshua was rooting for her, she still should not have barged into Luna’s office and tried to
poison her in broad daylight.
Fiona’s entire body stiffened when she heard Shannon’s voice. She drew her hand back, but after a
moment, she seemed to recall something and extended her hand to touch the glass again.
Before her fingers could even make contact with the glass, however, a hand reached out and took it
away.
