How nauseating.
How did she fall in love with such a selfish person back then?
Coming out from the hospital, Luna just got in the taxi and headed back to Blue Bay Villa when her phone rang incessantly.
There were messages and calls, one after the other. Luna lowered her head and looked through them.
Luna did not need to see to know that Joshua must have announced Fiona taking over her.
It made sense, too. There were only two days left until the competition. Big news like replacing someone last minute should be notified as early as possible.
Otherwise, Fiona would not be able to memorize the script on the design concept.
Luna lowered her gaze and looked through each of the messages.
In the end, she directly addressed everyone in the competition team chat group.
(Swapping Ms. Blake as the leader is the conclusion Mr. Lynch and I came to. I was the one who suggested this. I hope all of you understand. Not only did I put in hard work for this competition, but everyone else, too.
(I hope all of you could cherish the work we put in. It doesn’t matter who leads the team. What matters most is that we win. I hope that all of you actively cooperate with Ms. Blake. Thank you.]
Then, Luna let out a long sigh. She was about to leave the group chat when she realized a message was sent immediately after hers.
It was from Fiona.
(Actually, I don’t want to be the leader, but Joshua persuaded me for a very long time. He said that this i s the best solution. As long as I lead, it’ll be fine. He also said that Ms. Luna begged him for me to be the leader. I know that Ms. Luna is thinking of the big picture, and I hope everyone does so, too. I believe that our team will win the competition! Ms. Luna’s and everyone’s efforts won’t go to waste! ]
After Fiona finished, the two that helped Fiona ‘ expose’ Luna during the meeting immediately chimed in.
(Yes, yes. Ms. Fiona, you have a great character, and you’re so talented! You’ll be able to lead our team to be champions! ]
However…
Since Joshua wanted to take that to give it to his new lover, Luna could not let the team members’ effort go to waste and be disqualified from the competition because of her own selfish reasons.
Luna kept her phone. She closed her eyes and leaned back in the backseat, suddenly feeling exhausted.
She was mentally exhausted.
At that moment, her phone rang.
It was an unknown number. Luna furrowed her brows and answered the call.
On the other end of the call, a relaxed and cheerful man’s voice rang, ”Master, it’s me —Joey Charles ! I hear that you’re now in Banyan City. I ‘in going to be a judge in a competition in two days. Do you have time for a meal together?”
