Luna hesitated for a long time, but with the three children's encouragement, she finally decided to go
ahead.
By the time she reached a decision, it was almost noon, and Thomas Howard had intended to meet her
at 1 p.m.
With Nellie's help, Luna brainstormed the prototype for her jewelry design and developed a simple draft
for Thomas Howard.
By the time they finished this, there were only 20 minutes left till the meeting time.
Nellie was worried that Luna would not be able to tap into her full creative potential due to her worries,
so she volunteered to go with Luna to meet Thomas Howard in hopes that she could help alleviate her
nerves.
"Aren't we going to send some guards to keep an eye on Mommy and Nellie?"
As soon as Luna and Nellie left, Neil furrowed his brows and glanced at Nigel, who remained
motionless on the sofa.
"Are you sure it's going to be safe for them?"
"Why wouldn't it be?"
Nigel replied impassively as he stared at the surveillance tape on the laptop screen.
"You know fully well how big of a star Thomas Howard is.He has reporters following his every move—
even to the toilet.
"Haven't you seen how crazy the traffic became as soon as he arrived in Merchant City this morning?
He'll be surrounded by reporters and fans no matter where he goes.
Even if he and Mommy conduct their business meeting in a private booth and no one can hear them,
there will still be plenty of people with their eyes on him.
"If you were Thomas Howard, would you dare to harm Luna and Nellie in this case?"
Neil nodded in agreement upon hearing this, then propped his chin up in his hand and added, "You're
right.Not only that, but the restaurant that Uncle Joey proposed for their meeting is a fine dining place,
and it'd be harder for them to hurt Mommy and Nellie even if they wanted to."
Nigel nodded.
"That's right.To be frank, celebrities like him don't get much privacy at all."
"But they get to be famous."
Neil turned around and glanced at his brother with a hint of curiosity in his eyes.
"Nigel, do you think I have the potential to be a famous superstar? Do you think I should try to pursue
this path?"
Nigel, who was busy typing on his keyboard, froze when he heard this.A split second later, he lifted his
head to meet Neil's gaze.
"I don't think you should."
Neil pouted.
"Why not?"
"I don't like being deprived of my privacy."
"But I'm the one that's going to be famous, not you."
Nigel shot Neil a look of distaste, then replied in exasperation, "Have you forgotten the fact that we're
identical twins?"
Neil was silent for a moment.
"Oh...right.But since we're identical twins, doesn't it mean you'd be able to share the limelight if I
became an international superstar? After all, if someone were to call me hEFq![oKNsome, they'd be
complimenting you, too."
In response, Nigel hurled a throw pillow in Neil's direction.
While on the way to Bamboo House, Luna contemplated for a long time before finally deciding to call
Joshua.She gave him a brief description of what had happened over the last two hours, including the
conversation with Joey and the decision she had made alongside the three children.
Joshua was silent for a moment before finally saying, "I think your decision is right, but please be safe,
considering you have Nellie with you, too.I'll send some of my guards to Bamboo House to keep an eye
on you, and remember to call me if anything happens."
Luna felt the weight lift off her shoulders when she heard this.She let out an exhale, leaned against the
seat in relief, and closed her eyes.
"Alright.Have you...heard any news about Sean?"
