“I’m with Mr. Lynch. He says that Luna left her bag behind, and so I’m here to retrieve it.”
The guests furrowed their eyes, glancing at the place Luna had been sitting before she left.
Lo and behold, there was indeed a handbag sitting on the chair.
Mr. Hanson was a little displeased by this. “Quickly retrieve it and get out of here! Close the door behind
you when you leave!”
The woman nodded, scampered over to retrieve Luna’s bag, then left, closing the door behind her.
After coming out of the booth, Charlotte removed the pinhole cameras from Luna’s bag with a sneer,
then took out the recording device she had placed in a hidden pocket in the bag.
She had placed these items inside Luna’s bag without her noticing at all.
After exiting Lucky Den, Charlotte tossed the pinhole cameras and recording device to her assistant,
Roanne.
Roanne furrowed her brows as she started downloading the videos and audio files from these devices.
“What should we do, now that Ms. Luna was taken away by Joshua Lynch? Should weg o save her?”
Charlotte sneered. “There’s no need.
“She had been poisoned by the men at the party, so Joshua Lynch has shown up just in time to help her
counter the poison’s effects.”
Roanne was confused by this. “But…what if, after sleeping with Joshua, Luna does not want to fight with
Lynch Group anymore?”
“You’ve underestimated Luna.” Charlotte curled her lips into a smirk. “Hatred has already started to plant
its seed inside her, and because of this, she and Joshua won’t be able to reconcile so easily.”
With that, she narrowed her eyes and continued, “Also, don’t forget that we’ve utterly lost all contact with
Luna now, and if we were to save her from Joshua, wouldn’t that reveal that we had deliberately cut off
communication with her when she was inside Lucky Den?”
Roanne froze for a moment, then nodded in reply, not daring to say another word.
Charlotte was right. When Luna had called for their help, Charlotte had ignored her cries of help because
she had yet to record anything that could be used to threaten Mr. Hanson.
If they were to rescue her at this moment after ignoring her cries for help earlier… Luna would not trust
them anymore.
Lynch Mansion
Theo was video-calling Dr. Rachel in the living room.
“Rosalyn’s condition is improving, and her will to survive is far stronger than I had thought.
“If my guesses are correct, she must have displayed other signs of intending to wake up from her coma
previously, but because no one had noticed this, they failed to help her seek appropriate treatment in
time,” said Dr. Rachel to Theo as she ate her noodles.
“According to her current situation, she’ll be able to wake up in no time. She seems to have a lot holding
her back, and even if I weren’t here to help her, she’d still wake up within a year.”
“Really? That’s great news!” Theo was so excited that he almost leaped into the air.
A glimmer of disappointment flashed through Dr. Rachel’s eyes when she saw how delighted h
e was.
A split second later, she put down her fork and said, “If Rosalyn wakes up, you’ll become Luna’s savior,
and she’ll surely reciprocate your feelings.”
Theo paused when he heard this.
A split second later, he chuckled and replied, “She…”
Slam!
Before he could even finish his sentence, the door was kicked open with a slam.
Joshua strode into the room, holding Luna in his arms.
Theo widened his eyes in shock and quickly approached him. “What’s going on here?”
Joshua strode over, placing Luna on the sofa, and replied, “She was drugged.”
After putting Luna down, he walked into the kitchen to pour her a glass of cold water. “Does your doctor
friend know how to treat her?”
The tablet on the coffee table displayed Dr. Rachel’s frowning face. “Well, his doctor friend knows that
the only antidote to this drug is to have sex with someone, so which one of you is going to sacrifice
himself for the greater good?”
