Bruce pointed at a pile of stones and continued, “These stones represent Preston too. I can kick farther than you.”“You wish! I can kick farther than you.” At the satisfying sound of another stone plunging into the lake, Luna clapped her hands, her face beaming with joy.“Now it’s my turn.” “Hahaha! Hahahaha! I can kick farther than you...” At this point, Luna and Bruce had engaged in a playful contest of kicking stones, or versions of Preston, into the lake.While they had fun, Preston bristled with anger not far away. His body tensed up and his face darkened. It took all of his self-control to be able to stay in place.“Mr. King, is everything okay?”Derek asked him upon seeing the expression on Preston’s face. He stifled his laughter and tried to act as serious as he could. Luna was one of a kind. She was literally comparing Preston to a stone. Hilarious! Not only did she call it smelly and hard, but she went as far as kicking it and stepping hard on it.“Stop, we can stop now. I’

“Gemma, are you here yet?” “Really? Okay, come over quickly. I’m waiting.”The next second after Luna hung up, a taxi pulled up in front of them, and Gemma got out of it. When she got to Luna and saw Preston, she got a little nervous and timid. “Mr. King,” she stuttered.“Let's go, Gemma!” Luna grabbed the other woman's hand to leave.Preston grabbed Luna’s arm and held her back. How dare she disregard him like that?“Where are you going?” His voice was chilling enough to make one tremble.Luna faced him, her eyes meeting his in a silent battle.“Gemma, I'll stand aside and wait for you,” Gemma murmured and stepped away, unable to stand the intense atmosphere. Luna answered him coldly, “I’m going shopping with Gemma to get some clothes. Do you want to join us?”Preston let his gaze travel from Luna’s head to her toes and back again. Then, he said without thinking, “You want to get clothes? And who will you be wearing them for?”“For everyone to see. And since I will be attending grand

Gemma let out a gasp, her eyes fixed on the large display screen on the wall. She then grabbed Luna’s arm to get her attention and pointed at it.“This is bad! Look at that.”On the large screen, the headline was displayed in white font against a red background, and it was accompanied by photos of Luna’s ugly face and Preston’s handsome one. This arrangement made the news easy to read at a glance.Luna’s eyes grew wide, and the hair on the back of her neck stood up. How was this possible? Who leaked that information to the media? “I didn’t do this,” Luna muttered, still in shock.“Don't you dare deny it. You’re the one who'll benefit the most from this. Now, everyone knows I’m not crippled, and you’ve jumped to success just by marrying me,” Preston accused.Luna pursed her lips as she stared at her unsightly photo on the screen. Seconds later, she felt her blood boiling in indignation. Where Preston got the idea that she was responsible for this, she had no idea.She clenched her teet

Meanwhile, in a high-end boutique, Gemma could not contain her awe as she gawked at the exquisite-looking items on display. “Wow, these clothes are gorgeous. As expected from high-end brands.”They were approached by a sales lady who informed them, “These are all the new arrivals to our store. Please feel free to look around, ma’am.”Luna approached a light blue fishtail dress and ran her hand over its silky, smooth fabric. Putting the dress on a model would undoubtedly make it stand out even more.“I’ll try on this dress.” “You've got a good eye, miss. This dress is our store’s masterpiece.”Suddenly, she heard murmuring behind her. When Luna turned around, she noticed some women staring at her and talking among themselves.“Look, she’s wearing a mask. She must be the rumored ugliest woman in Preagend, Luna Miller.”“Did you see the news? She took her sister’s place and married Preston. What a vicious woman! Fortunate for her, Preston is not a crippled man.”“How could we miss such b

“You're lying. If this dress was already reserved, it wouldn’t have been on the model. I know what this is. You just want to sell it to her.The store manager took in a deep breath and repeated more firmly to Gemma, “I already said it was an error on my part. Miss Miller, please take off the dress quickly. We won't be able to sell it if it gets dirty.”Luna glanced at Rhea who had a self-satisfied smirk on her face.If only Luna didn’t look so good in the dress, maybe Rhea would have let it go. But Luna looked stunning in it. “Mrs. King, they simply don’t want to sell the dress to you. It’s outrageous!”Gemma’s voice was filled with indignation.Luna touched her waist, then raised an eyebrow as if a thought just crossed her mind.“You're right,” Luna said, looking at the store manager. “I shouldn't be trying to get the dress when Miss Evans already reserved it. I'll go and change right away.”“What? No, Mrs. King, you can’t just let them win!”Gemma was really mortified, but Luna gave

As soon as Luna’s card passed and the payment was done, the shop assistant smiled so much that her eyes were barely visible. Luna took one of the bags and gave it to Gemma. “Take this, Gemma. It’s for you.”Gemma’s mouth dropped wide open as she looked at the bag. “No, Mrs. King. Thank you, but I can’t accept this. It’s worth ten thousand. It’s too valuable for me.”Luna pursed her lips disapprovingly.“Stop with the false modesty and just take it, Gemma. It was obvious from the way you stared at the dress that you wanted it. Now you have it. Take it so we can go.”That evening, in the most luxurious private room of the Skyline Restaurant, gathered around a table of cards, were four exquisitely dressed men. The fragrance of tea filled the room as they played good-naturedly.Preston threw out a card he had picked up. He had been in a very bad mood since he came in.Mylo Barrett, who was seated closest to him stole a glance at him and asked, “Is it because of the news that was published

Their conversation distracted Luna. She saw that one of the men in the room was familiar. However, she didn’t waste a second to figure it out when Grace was probably dying somewhere. She skipped past them and walked inside.These bastards must have hidden Grace in the back room.The lounge was empty, but Luna didn’t give up. Her eyes stopped on the closed wardrobes. She rushed towards them and pulled them open one by one, creating a loud continuous sound in the room.Mylo observed Luna for a while, then suddenly looked back at Delmor and winked as if he had just figured something out.“Grace is a girl’s name, right? Look at how angry Mrs. King is. She is ready to tear this place apart. Preston, did you cheat on your wife with another woman called Grace?” Mylo asked, looking at Preston in disbelief. That was the only explanation he had for Luna’s actions.Preston blinked several times in confusion. What was Mylo talking about? An affair?Luna became increasingly desperate. There was no

"Explain your absurd behavior tonight right now. That is an order. If you can’t give me a good explanation, I'll throw you out the window and you'll fall to your death. Just so you know, this is the eighth floor.” Luna’s eyes darted towards the window anxiously. She was going to blame this stupid man if anything happened to Grace.Looking for an escape route, Luna’s gaze fell on his strong and powerful arm exposed by his rolled up sleeves. Without any warning, she lowered her head and sank her sharp teeth into the arm.Preston roared at the pain, but didn’t relinquish his hold on her.“Let go!”“You let go first!” Luna returned and sank her teeth back into his skin.The more she bit into his skin, the weaker he became until he finally let her hand go.Immediately, Luna stood up straight and shook her aching hand. Why did it hurt so much? Maybe he really broke it.Then, she felt something cold and wet on her lips. She touched her lips and brought down her hand only to see a red liquid
