Chapter 35
Joshua was a little surprised.
If he remembered correctly, the woman had taken care of Nellie for less than a week. How could she know so much about Nellie? He sat on the sofa and watched her flipping through the children’s clothes, and Luna Gibson’s face appeared in front of his eyes in a daze. If she was by his side, she would be like Luna, buzzing here and there like a hardworking bee, busily taking care of her daughter.
In other words, Luna’s care for Nellie, both in the way she looked after her and the way she seemed to read her feelings, seemed to have far surpassed the relationship between a nanny and her employer’s daughter. He remembered how in the Ferris wheel yesterday, she was determined to protect Nellie even if her own life was at stake. At that moment, he even felt that, even if she approached him with ill intentions, it wasn’t a big deal after all. At least, she was doing her best to take care of Nellie. Nellie had extremely good taste. The moment she came back, she found the most competent maid. “Sir.” Maybe because he had been sitting on the sofa for too long, the salesperson on the side approached him cautiously, “Is that your wife?
I can see that your wife has done her best for your daughter. Then would you like to buy your wife a gift?”
Joshua scrunched his eyebrows, turned his head and took a look. The coldness in the man’s eyes made the salesperson slightly nervous. But the salesman chuckled and pointed to the women’s clothing department behind him, “Your wife is in good shape, she can wear those clothes.” Somehow,
Joshua stood up and followed the salesman into the women’s clothing department. Under the salesperson’s persuasion, Joshua bought two sets of branded clothes for Luna. When he returned to the sofa, Luna had just finished choosing clothes for Nellie. “These are for you.” On the way home, Joshua handed the two sets of clothes to Luna, the expression on his face as cold as ever. The woman took a look and said, “Mr. Lynch, why are you giving me clothes all of a sudden?” “On the one hand, it’s a reward for saving Nellie yesterday. On the other hand, thank you for teaching me how to cook.” ConTEent bel0ngs to Nôv(e)lD/rama(.)Org .
The man turned his head and looked out the car window, his tone indifferent, “You’ve done your best for Nellie and I can see that, but I can’t give you what you want. Take these in return.” Luna was startled, and it took a long time for her to understand what Joshua meant. He still didn’t trust her, he thought she was plotting against him. Her lips lifted slightly, a contemptuous smile hanging from her lips, “Thank you then.” She admitted that when she came back this time, she was indeed conspiring against him, but not right now, and she would not be so straightforward. From the beginning, she didn’t intend to appear in his life as a servant. If it wasn’t for Neil’s little trick, she wouldn’t have to stay by his side for Nellie and be despised by him. The two of them remained quiet for the rest of the journey. The moment they returned home, Nellie looked at the pile of clothes Joshua had bought for her, and excitedly pulled Luna into the changing room to try on all the clothes. She changed into one set after another, and every time she changed into a different set, she requested Luna had to praise her. Luna leaned back on the sofa and looked at the little girl’s excited expression and smiled helplessly. It didn’t take much for her to be happy. When Nellie had changed into her sixth set of clothes, Luna’s cell phone rang, it was a call from Anne. “Luna, what is the relationship between you and Joshua?” Luna rubbed her temples, ” It’ll take some time to explain, but all you need to know is I’m working as a servant at Joshua’s house.”
“I’m not asking you for an explanation.” On the other end of the phone, Anne paused, “Did you not watch the news? You went to the mall with Joshua, and Joshua bought you clothes. All these photos were taken and posted online! Aura Lynch, Joshua’s fiancé, is considered a celebrity, she is crying right now in the live broadcast, and netizens are scolding you, saying that you’re a mistress! “
