Luna only took a few steps when she turned around and swept Luke a cold gaze. “I can’t
meddle too much into your affairs with Gwen, but if a thing like that happens again, I’ll finish
you!
“Also…” Luna took a deep breath and continued, “Since you placed Gwen here, don’t let her witness all
the bloody scenes. Don’t let too many people know about this place. Do your deadly business
somewhere else. Don’t let it affect Gwen.”
Then, Luna turned and left.
Luke leaned back on the sofa with a sneer on his face as he watched Luna leave.
It was only after Theo and Luna vanished from sight did the butler by the side sigh. He picked u p the
teapot and poured Luke a cup of tea.
“Sir, it looks like someone misunderstood you again. Why don’t you explain it clearly to Ms. Larson?
You’ve never killed her fiance. It was her fiance that…”
Before the butler could finish his sentence, his words were forced back by Luke’s icy glare.
Luke looked at the butler coldly. “I don’t want her to know.”
Luke would rather her continue to be misled than for her to know the truth. The truth would b e too cruel
for her.
“Send the orders.” Luke changed into a more comfortable position. He raised his hand and rubbed the
middle of his brows.
“From now onward, no one in this mansion is allowed to mention anything about the people o r matters
of Sea City. Otherwise, they’d be cast out of this gang!”
Although the butler was unhappy, he could only lower his head and reply, “Yes, Sir.”
Luna continued to ponder Gwen’s words on the journey from Luke’s mansion to the Landry Mansion.
If others might think that Charlotte’s orders to demolish the small house came from her, could it also be
that someone secretly burned Malcolm’s mansion, then let others think that Malcolm was the one who
did it?
Luna closed her eyes and Heather’s last words before her death inexplicably appeared on her mind.
Heather told her to beware of Charlotte and distance herself from her.
Heather also said that back then Charlotte had to do with the accident she and Aura planned
with Jason, too.
If that was true…
Luna narrowed her eyes, and a terrifying thought crept into her mind.
Could it be that…Charlotte was the one who ordered for Heather to be silenced for good?
The more Luna thought, the more they felt that it was possible.
Charlotte had long said that she did not go along well with Heather; they were like oil and water. If it were
not for Heather being kicked out of the Landrys, Charlotte would not dare to return to Merchant City.
Furthermore, it looked like Heather had a lot of leverage on Charlotte too.
At that thought, chills ran down Luna’s back. After all, if Charlotte could secretly order the demolition of
the small house, she might have got people to burn Malcolm’s mansion down, too.
At that thought, Luna was suddenly worried about her meeting with Charlotte the next day. If Charlotte
was truly such a manipulative and scheming woman…
She would not return her child to her that easily.
Just like that, Luna fell asleep filled with worry and anxiety.
The next morning, she was woken up by the ring of her phone. It was from Charlotte.
Luna accepted the call with apprehension. However, what came from the other end was not Charlotte’s
voice but a baby’s cry. 1 Luna’s heart instantly skipped a beat.
