    Chapter 1797


    Luna was so shocked that she was speechless for a long while. Jim was like Joshua. They had a lot of


    trade confidential information on them, thus their phone held the lifeline to thepany. They would


    never simply leave their phone, let alone leave their phone with someone they were not close to. Luna


    furrowed her brows. “Why are you with my brother?”


    Charlotte, on the other end of the line, merely smiled. She looked at Jim, who had passed out slumped


    on the table in front of her. “It’s because he asked me out, of course.” Then, she sighed and said,


    “Don’t get me wrong. He looked for me not because he wanted to get back together with me. It’s


    because…” Charlotte raised her eyebrows. “He wanted to chase me away while you’re not in Merchant


    City. He wanted me to stay away from you.” Then, Charlotte sighed and said, “But I don’t have the time


    to waste on you. He’s overthinking this.” Luna furrowed her brows. She wanted to say something else


    when Charlotte gave the excuse that Jim had returned and hung up. Luna clutched her phone tightly as


    she heard the dial beeping. Waves of unease washed over her.


    Luna did not believe what Charlotte said. After all, even if Jim truly asked Charlotte out for coffee to


    warn her to stay away from Luna, he would not have given his phone to her when he went to the


    bathroom, This was not something Jim would do. However, she was in Banyan City at that moment.


    She could not personally verify if what Charlotte said was true. After a while, Luna could only take her


    phone and call the butler of the Landry Mansion. She got him to send someone to look for Jim to make


    sure he was alright. After hanging up her phone, Luna closed her eyes and leaned back on the car


    seat, resting. When the car was by Bonnie’s house, only then did she suddenly recall that she had


    forgotten to pass the check that John got her to return to Joshua. She took the 500000 dor-check out

    from her pocket, looking at Joshua’s mboyant handwriting. She helplessly rubbed the middle of her


    brows. She was rather forgetful recently. Could Jim be like her, forgetting his phone, leaving i t with


    Charlotte? Coming out from the taxi, Luna had only entered the courtyard of Bonnie’s mansion when


    Jim called. “Luna.” Jim’s voice sounded rather exhausted. Luna pursed her lips. “Jim, just now, did


    you…” Jim yawned and sounded a little groggy as if he had just woken up. “I was having coffee with


    Charlotte just now. I left my phone with her. Were you looking for me?”


    Hearing Jim’s voice, Luna paused for a while. Something was not right. “Jim, you don’t seem like the


    type who’d leave their phone with other people.” Jim chuckled. “Well, I’m not perfect; I make mistakes


    too. Don’t worry about it. The butler sent someone to check on me. Did you send for him?” Luna


    responded calmly. “Don’t do such a thing again in the future.” Jim sounded serious. “Although you’re


    the head of the Landry family and the butler should follow your orders, I’m still your older brother. Stop


    getting the servants to check up on me. If you really don’t trust m e, you could just chase me out of the


    family, and I’ll stop being the vice president of the Landry Group.” Luna could not help but widen her


    eyes upon Jim’s words. “Jim, that’s not what I meant.” She just did not trust Charlotte, worried that


    something might have happened to him. Why did the situation morph into something as though she


    was sending people to spy on him and control him because she supposedly did not trust him?
