    Chapter 456 Sweet and Smooth


    “Also, Luna is very capable. She manages L.Moon’s orders, contracts, and more. She’s the one


    handling everything. If a girl like her isn’t considered outstanding in your eyes, then what kind of girl is


    considered outstanding?” Josh continued to reason with Scarlett.


    “In any case, I won’t agree!” Scarlett’s voice grew louder again.


    After a sigh, he said, “This is prejudice. You upset me.”


    With that, he turned and went upstairs, leaving Scarlett staring at him in disbelief.


    A momentter, she pressed on her chest and looked at Kelly. “Oh my, he’s upset? I’m the one who


    should be upset! He clearly knew we were in conflict with L.Moon, yet he’s dating Luna. He’s trying to


    ruin this family.”


    Kelly patted her chest and said, “Luna and Josh haven’t even met many times. Even if he likes her, she


    may not necessarily like him back. Dating him seems deliberate.”


    Of course, Scarlett knew that Luna had ulterior motives, but she had already captivated Josh.


    “When is Dading back?” Kelly suddenly asked.


    “His overseas project still has some time to go. I can handle this matter,” Scarlett said, wiping away her


    tears.


    Kelly grunted and didn’t press the matter further.


    In the upstairs study, Josh brought drinks for Abigail and Luna, then sat down at theputer desk.


    “How about watching a movie? I can order somete-night snacks,” he suggested.


    Eric looked at Abigail and said, “How about I take Abigail out for a walk first? You two need to talk,


    right?”


    “What is there to talk about? His mother doesn’t like me, but it’s not like he doesn’t like me. I’m not that


    petty,” Luna said in a carefree manner. After all, she had achieved her goal for the day. Scarlett was in


    tears, and Kelly was surely seething with anger.


    As Abigail looked around Josh’s study, she said, “You’ve decorated this study nicely.”


    The study was filled with wooden carvings he had made, but there were also many modern electronic


    devices, giving it a kind of ssical cyberpunk vibe.


    Suddenly, Luna walked up to Josh and casually sat on hisp. “I’ll be leaving with Abigail in a little


    while. Don’t argue with your mother. I’m afraid your father will beat you up when he’s back.”


    Her actions were making Josh itch with desire. However, his more than two decades of gentlemanly


    upbringing kept himposed as he replied, “Okay, but my father won’t beat me up. I’m almost 30”


    She ced her finger on his face and slid it down gently I’m just worried about you. Why are you


    always


    50 serious?”


    This scene was making Abigail tee! increasingly ufortable.


    Luna had the potential to be a seductress, and Josh, on the other hand, was the quintessential


    gentleman They were just like Romeo and Juliet

    As Eric watched them, he was filled with envy. Is this what love is like? It seems even sweeter and


    more exciting than a romance film!


    “We’ll go for a walk outside. Call me when you want to leave, Luna.” Abigail couldn’t stand it anymore;


    she wanted to escape.


    “Okay!” Luna deliberately spoke in a cutesy voice.


    Once Abigail and Eric left, Josh couldn’t resist reaching out and embracing Luna around her waist.


    His voice was slightly husky as he said, “If you keep this up, you won’t be able to leave tonight.”

    Luna moved closer to him, her eyes sparkling. “Abigail will get angry.”


    He nuzzled her nose. It was evident that he was falling for her. “What about a kiss, then?”


    With a smile, she whispered, “We’ve just started dating. Isn’t kissing too fast?”


    “What about you and Howard? You slept with him shortly after meeting him,” he said as he looked into


    her


    eyes.


    “If you’re going topare it like that, we might as well fast-forward to breaking up.” Her tone turned


    cold.


    Hearing that, he pressed his lips together and, in the end, restrained his desires. “No kissing, then.”


    “Shall we watch a movie and chat?” Luna actually didn’t like Josh very much. Everything she had done


    was out of revenge.


    She had some feelings for Howard, but toward Josh, it was only resentment.


    With that, Josh got up and turned on the projector.


    Meanwhile, Abigail and Eric strolled through the neighborhood, with one walking ahead and the other


    following closely behind.


    Eric’s mind was filled with scenes of Luna getting close to Josh, and he couldn’t help but get excited.


    Josh and Luna look really good together. I didn’t expect their rtionship to progress so quickly.”


    “It’s indeed quite quick,” Abigail replied. She didn’t particrly like discussing Josh and Luna’s affairs.


    Noticing herck of interest in the topic, Eric said with a smile, “I wish I could be like Josh, too. He


    really likes Luna. Their rtionship makes me envious.“


    “At the beginning, it’s certainly sweet and smooth, but realpatibility can only be seen after a long


    time,” she said gently.


    However, he was well aware of the suffering underlying her words.


    Abigail, who had suffered setbacks in both love and marriage, knew best that momentary happiness


    didn’t mean much. Only those who went through hardships together and still stayed together were truly


    suitable


    for each other.
