Chapter 265


    “How did you know I was workingte tonight?“ asked Luna as she munched on the food Theo had


    brought for her.


    Theo chuckled. “What if I told you I ‘d been waiting for you outside since 5 pm?“


    Luna almost choked on her food. “Really?“


    “Of course not, silly.“ Theo leaned against the chair and stretched. “When I was at your friend’s ce


    this morning, I asked for her number, too. I called her just now, and she told me you weren’t home yet,


    so I guessed that you were probably still working.“


    Luna felt relieved upon hearing Theo’s exnation.


    Otherwise, she did not know how to react if Theo had indeed waited for her for more than three hours.


    She stuffed the rest of the food into her mouth as quickly as she could. “Let’s go.“


    Theo chuckled again and helped her clean up the food containers. “Let’s go. Thendlord is waiting for


    us.“


    Luna nodded and followed him out of the office. Joshua had been watching everything from his position


    in a dark corner of the office with none of them knowing. He watched with a somewhat displeased look


    on his face as the two walked to the elevator.


    As Theo got on the elevator, he abruptly turned around and nced in Joshua’s direction, seemingly


    looking straight at him.


    The elevator doors closed, and the two descended. A split secondter, Joshua’s phone rang. It was


    Alice again, asking him toe home.


    Joshua muted the call in frustration and got into the elevator. When he came out of the building, he


    caught sight of Theo’s car that seemed to head in the opposite direction of Anne’s house.


    Was Luna genuinely going home with Theo? That woman had no shame!


    Joshua squinted as he clenched his fists even tighter.


    The phone in his pocket started ringing again. This time, however, it was Nellie calling.


    “Daddy, what time are youing home? That crazydy said that we’re not allowed to eat without


    you. Neil and I are starving! “


    Joshua froze. “Alice isn’t letting you eat dinner?“


    “Yeah! She said that we’re bad children, so she’s trying to teach us some manners.“ Nellie pouted as


    she said it. “That crazydy isn’t letting us have any snacks either. She says it’s bad for us! Thest


    thing I ate was the apple that my teacher gave me at kindergarten, but it’s been more than six hours


    now. I’m going to starve to death! “


    “Alright, alright. I’ming home now.“ Joshua hung up the phone and nced in the direction that


    Theo’s car had left. Then, after a moment, he turned around and got into his car.


    In the end, Luna was just an employee of his. It did not matter who she chose to go home with. It was


    none of his business, anyway.

    Half an hourter , Joshua’s car stopped in front of Blue Bay Vi.


    ”Joshua, you’re home! ” Alice came out of the house and greeted him with a cheerful smile. ”The kids


    and I have been waiting for you.”


    Joshua nced at her, then looked toward the house. He caught sight of two small heads huddled


    together, watching them from a window of the second floor.


    Joshua paused, then put his arm around Alice’s shoulder and led her back to the house. ”My working


    hours are very inconsistent. I’de home on time on some days, but I ’11 also have days when I’ll


    workte. In the future, you and the kids can have dinner first if you’re hungry. You don’t have to wait


    for me.”


    ”No. How can I let that happen? ” Alice pursed her lips and grabbed Joshua’s hand, grinning. ”I have to


    teach the children manners. I can’t have them growing up and bing rude people. I wouldn’t want


    them embarrassing you in the future ! ” She paused and remarked, ”Luna took great care of Neil and


    Nellie, but I don’t think she ever taught them proper manners. I can’t me her, though. She’s never


    been exposed to etiquette like this since she doesn’te from a noble or distinguished family. ”


    Joshua could not help but frown at her words. He had grown up in a noble and distinguished family that


    ced a lot of emphasis on proper manners and etiquette. As such, he hated it when people tried to


    educate their children that way.


    He had discussed this with her when he first got together with Luna. He had told her that he wished for


    their children to be brought up like ordinary folks and not be confined to rules and restrictions like those


    he had grown up with.


    Does Clearly works fine?
