Luna looked at Alexander in confusion when she heard him say that.
Eve and Clarenceâs poisoning of the original was something only the three of them knew.
Could it be that Alexander also had some secrets?
That was the first time that Luna wanted to understand Alexander.
âLong time no see. Itâs rare for you to be in a place like this.â
A graceful voice rang from behind them. Luna and Alexander both turned around at the same time.
A woman wearing something very intellectual appeared before them. She was around the same age as Alexander.
Alexander was as cold as usual. âYou are also here for the three paintings, Ms. Brown?â
Felicity Brown shook her head and said, âI simply heard that the second daughter of the Brooke family was having her own exhibition. I came over because I was curious. I didnât expect to see you here.â
Luna quietly put down the cake in her hand. The woman was treating her as invisible?
Alexander glanced at Luna and said, âMy wife wanted to come, so I brought her along.â
Felicityâs eyes had finally moved towards Luna, and she spoke as if she had just noticed her being there, âAh! Ms. Brooke! Iâm so sorry, all I cared about was to speak to Mr. White. I hope you wouldnât mind?â
Luna rolled her eyes in her mind, then stretched her hand to grab Alexanderâs arm. âOf course not. Ever since Iâve been with Alexander, there are very few things that could make me angry.â
It was already openly declared that she was with Alexander. This woman was quite undignified for coming to latch on to Alexander.
He then patted the back of her hand, pampering her.
Felicityâs fingers curled without her even realizing, and she clenched them into fists. âWow, the two of you are so loving towards each other. If I didnât know, I thought both of you had known each other and been together for years!â
She was implying that the original and Clarence were together for a few years previously.
âItâs true love!â Luna turned her head and her beautiful face was gently pressed on Alexanderâs arm. âThere are some people in this world that were destined to marry even if they had just encountered each other.â
She intentionally used a loving and childish tone, and even Alexander who was used to being in some major incidents could only stand there frozen.
Had he accidentally picked up an actress? Why wasnât she so affectionate with him at home?
Felicity was so angry that her face turned from pale to red. âTake your time, you two. I still have something to attend to. Iâll see you at the auction hall later.â
With that, she didnât even give the two of them a chance to say anything before leaving. It seemed that she was pretty angry.
Luna tried her very best not to burst out laughing. âThatâs it?!â
After she was further away, only then did she stop hugging Alexanderâs arm and asked, âWhoâs that? One of your admirers?â
Why wasnât there someone like her in the originalâs memory? If she were part of their circle, the original would have some clues about her.
âMy previous business partner who was contracted for a few years,â Alexander slowly explained as he sipped the glass of red wine. âSheâs somewhat weird. She doesnât like to join any parties, and wouldnât appear in any other non-business-related activities. To think that I would meet her todayâ¦â
He didnât finish the sentence, but Luna knew what he meant naturally.
For some reason, she didnât feel too good. âIt must be because the news about you coming here had been leaked, and she especially came here to see you. Oh no, there goes your admirer!â
Alexander looked at her expression and flashed an exceptionally bright smile. âWhat? Are you jealous?â
He had thought that Lunaâs relationship with him was something that she had chosen, not something that she liked.
But seeing her now, he felt extremely happy.
âNo!â Luna pushed away his arm and said, âIâm not jealous!â
She didnât know anything about being jealous.
It was just that⦠She was simply feeling unhappy.
She walked towards the exhibition. Then, Luna saw the sponsor of the art exhibition, the rich man with a big belly.
She rolled her eyes and suddenly walked towards him.
âMr. Mitchell, the manager, is it?â Luna asked him with a polite smile on her face. âThe decor for the art exhibition is wonderful! You must have spent a lot!â
The man always had a good impression of Eve. Otherwise, with just those ordinary paintings of hers, no one would be willing to organize an art exhibition for her.
Even her own father didnât want to contribute anything.
âItâs alright!â Mitchell said. âI only spent a few hundred thousand.â
Luna then glanced at Eve who wasnât that far away busy explaining her work, and there was pity in her eyes. âYouâre quite bold, Mr. Mitchell! You are willing to spend so much even when others would benefit!â
Mitchell didnât understand. âWhat do you mean, miss?â
Luna then said with a smile, âNothing, but Eve already has someone in her heart. The young man from the Oaks!â
âI know about that too. But the two of them are no longer possible,â Mitchell said with confidence. âShe was also just a victim of that. You should stop talking about it now.â
When he was saying the final sentence, his tone had already shown that he was somewhat unhappy.
Lunaâs smile didnât change at all as she continued, âWhy not take a look at this? It doesnât look like they are no longer in contact!â
She took her phone and opened her friend list. She simply pulled it down, and all the pictures of Eve flaunting her love life were shown.
And the time? One day before Luna had gone to Bliss Hotel.
However, most of them were only shown to her to make her angry.
If their friends or others in the family saw it, both of them would be in huge trouble.
Looking at those intimate group photos and flirtatious words, Mr. Mitchell couldnât maintain his smile anymore.
Luna merely patted his shoulder and walked away, giving him a look of sympathy.
Alexander was waiting for her under a painting. When he saw her return with a smile, he asked, âHow was it? Are you happy now?â
Luna blinked and asked, âYou know what I did?â
Alexander said, âDo you have to ask? You definitely went to provoke that manager.â
The bald manâs face had instantly turned from happy to angry and his smile completely disappeared.
âYou canât blame me. Eve was the one that would show all her intimate pictures with me.â Luna merely shrugged and said innocently, âThis is simply the fruits of her labor.â
Alexanderâs smile slowly disappeared. âSo? Youâre taking to heart that sheâs together with Clarence Oak?â
âAll I wanted to do is stir up trouble for them!â Luna answered decisively. âIf you ever betray me, Iâll make sure you end up worse than them! Hmph!â
Alexander pinched her face and said, âDonât worry, that day will never come!â
