Julius left, leaving only Flora and Eve in the living room.

Eve was sobbing and crying so hard that her eyes were all red. “Mom, Dad is still protecting that b*tch even now! What should we do?”

She had been kicked out of the Brooke family already, yet Julius still didn’t want to give up his chess piece?

Her dad didn’t even want to let her go to apologize in her stead?

Why wouldn’t he think about her? Her reputation was already ruined, did she still have to…

“Don’t worry. I have my ways.” The smile on Flora’s face disappeared the moment that Julius turned and walked away. Only viciousness remained as she said, “Luna, huh? She won’t have much time left.”

She then picked up the phone on the table and dialed a number. “Hello? Can you help me with something, Brother…?”

After she hung up the call, Eve was already smiling despite her tears. “Mom, you’re good! This time, Luna will get everything she deserves! Let’s see who would marry that little b*tch!”

Flora nodded, but Eve suddenly asked, “Right, Mom. Emmett has been away for how many days now? He didn’t even pick up our calls when we went to the Oaks today. Did something happen to him?”

“Emmett was beaten up at the clubhouse while he was gambling. He couldn’t return home as long as there were still bruises on his face. But he wouldn’t tell me who attacked him. He took a hundred thousand from me and left,” Flora sighed when she heard her question. She then pulled her messy hair back to her ears and said, “You have to work hard too. You must get hold of Clarence’s heart. Our future depends on you. Then, we’ll let your dad take care of your useless brother. I don’t want to spend any more effort on him.”

When she heard about that, Eve’s eyes began to flare up with pride, “Don’t worry, Mom! Clarence will do whatever I say. He’ll marry me! I already told him that if worse comes to worst, we can elope together!”

“Are you insane?!” Flora was shocked when she heard that. “You cannot leave with him. Without the Oaks’ support, what does he have to guarantee your future life? Do not believe his empty promises. Your brother is already that hopeless. If you ran away too, who else do I have left?!”

Eve nodded and said, “Yes, I understand. Don’t worry. I will definitely become Mrs. Oak.”

She would not show any mercy no matter who was standing in front of her.

Flora let out a strange smile on her face and said, “That’s what should be done.”

The next morning, when Luna woke up, Mrs. Niles had already prepared breakfast for her.

Alexander had already left, leaving her alone for breakfast.

Back on the website, Grant had already asked her if she could accept new tasks.

She replied to him with a yes and then received the files from him.

Something like that was not that difficult for an A-lister like her. She only spent around ten minutes and then gave him what he had asked for.

She received the balance and looked at that backup that she had. A glint of frost appeared in her eyes.

‘Clarence, oh Clarence. Since you wanted my life, you’ll stay in prison forever.’

She switched off the computer and gave it a thought, then gave Alexander a call.

A ring interfered with the meeting’s progress. Alexander glanced at the screen, and his cold expression blossomed into a smile.

The entire meeting room fell into silence.

‘Seriously? Is our president smiling?’

‘The ice king is melting?’

“Someone’s on the line.” Alexander walked out of the meeting room with his phone, found a quiet corner, and accepted the call.

“Hello?”

When Luna heard that deep, attractive voice, she somehow felt a little bit drunk from it. “About that, I have something I want to tell you.”

“Hm?” Alexander looked at the time. “What is it?”

She should have just woken up at this time.

“I want to make a police report,” Luna said in a clear voice. “I found the evidence I need. Clarence Oak used illegal substances and caused me to suffer from mental issues. He… wanted to murder me.”

Alexander was stunned. “Murder?”

He had investigated Luna’s mental problems. However, where did murder come from?

Luna didn’t want to explain too much and only said, “I’m just telling you this. Don’t say that I didn’t inform you about this!”

This had to go through the proper channels. And since the truth would be laid bare under the sun, she decided that it would be better to let Alexander know about it first.

Since the way he kissed was really making her blush.

“I’m having a meeting right now. Wait for my return,” Alexander stopped for a moment and continued, “Don’t worry, I’ll make it quick.”

Luna wanted to tell him that he didn’t have to, she could do it herself. But Alexander didn’t give her the chance to refuse him and hung up the call.

After about half an hour, Alexander brought his assistant back to the mansion.

Luna was shocked at the speed, “You’re done with your meeting?”

Alexander pursed his lips and said, “Yea.”

His assistant, “…”

‘He finished up the meeting earlier. He didn’t finish the meeting at all.’

The two of them entered the study, and Alexander looked at Luna. “You said that you have the evidence with you?”

After giving it a thought, she took out a flash drive from somewhere and said, “Here is the report for the drugs that Clarence’s labs are making. My mental state was fine. They drugged me.”

“Where did you get this document?” Alexander asked Luna. “You should know that if you get it illegally, it cannot be used as evidence.”

For the past two days, Luna had only gone to a clubhouse once. She didn’t seem to go anywhere else. How had she gottenn her hands on them?

She might be sued for breaching others’ privacy instead.

Luna merely shrugged and said, “Through the proper channels, obviously!”

And they had given it to her themselves.

She believed they would dare say that they had looked for someone on the A list from Website X.

If they did, the Oaks would be targeted by the entire community of Website X.

Alexander looked at Luna suspiciously. For some reason, he felt that this girl was hiding a lot of things from him.

“Then, what kind of proper channels did you use to have Clarence give you something this important?”

Luna smiled mysteriously and said, “That’s a secret. I’ll tell you later.”

Her eyes were shining like the stars in the night sky.

Alexander didn’t want to force her anymore. Instead, he asked, “Then what about the murder? You received news that they took some action lately?”

“They poisoned me earlier, but I don’t have any proof about that,” Luna shrugged. “But once I submit this as evidence, the proof we need will come to me.”

Both Clarence and Eve hated her so much, so they wouldn’t just sit there and die.

Maybe, they would be clutching at straws and try to kill her one more time.

Alexander stared at her and then said, “Let me go with you.”

Luna was momentarily stunned and then said, “Thank you..”
