Chapter 2394
"Have you decided to go for it, Master Moon?"
There was a newfound hint of joy in Joey''s voice as he eximed, "Have you decided toe out of
your retirement for this? If yes, I''ll get in touch with Thomas Howard''s assistant right now!"
With that, he hung up the phone.
Luna remained stunned as she clutched the phone in her hand, listening to the dial tone.
A split secondter, she sighed and tucked her phone away.
Just as she was about to lock her phone, however, she received a message from Joey.
[Thomas Howards wants to meet you this afternoon! 1 p.m.at Bamboo House, a restaurant on the west
side of the city!] Luna nced at the time, frowning.

It was already past 11 a.m., so she would be meeting Thomas Howard in less than two hours.
How impatient was this man? The rational voice in her mind was telling her that something was wrong
—that Thomas Howard must have had ulterior motives for setting up this once-in-a-lifetime business
opportunity.
Luna knew that she should have discussed this with Joshua at a time like this, but...She nced at the
gazebo in the backyard, where Joshua and Jim were seated, frantically making phone calls to their
subordinates.
They were already preupied with trying to track down Sean and Luke''s assistant, so she did not feel
like wasting their time with such an insignificant matter.
Therefore, she quickly found an excuse, bade Rosalyn and Charles farewell, then returned to Joshua''s
house.
While on the way home, she had talked to Neil on the phone about this prospective business venture,
so by the time she arrived home, all three of the children were already seated on the sofa, waiting for
her.
"Mommy!"
Nellie immediately leaped from her seat and grabbed hold of Luna''s hand as soon as she saw her walk
in.
"Is that superstar really going to work with you? This is fantastic news! "I''ve done some research, and I
found out that this man''s bone structure, as well as the length of each of his individual fingers, are
perfect for jewelry advertising! There''s no one out there who''d be a better than him!
"Mommy, we have to seize this opportunity to rebuild your career in jewelry design once more!"
Neil nced at his sister as he poured Luna a cup of tea, then said calmly, "Nellie, have you ever heard
of the phrase, ''There will always be a price for what fate bestows on you''?"
Nellie furrowed her brows and stared dubiously at her brother.
With her head tilted in slight confusion, she asked, "What does that mean?"
"What it means is that there is no such thing as a free lunch, and everythinges with a price,"
Nigel, who had been tapping at hisptop all this while, suddenly piped up.
''Mommy asked us to help her investigate this man because she doesn''t think something so good would
happen without an ulterior motive."
Nellie pouted, then swiveled her eyes in deep thought, and finally eximed triumphantly, "Maybe this
celebrity secretly admires Daddy and intends to build a rtionship with Daddy by working together
with Mommy, which will allow him the opportunity to work with Daddy''spany in the future! After all,
Daddy''spany is world-renowned, so surely he would want to work with him!"
Nigel nced at her and smiled.
"If this celebrity needed the money that desperately, your theory would be right, but..."
He turned hisptop around to show the figures on the screen to Nellie and Luna.
"I managed to track some of the money in Mr.Thomas Howard''s bank ount."
"Tens, hundreds, thousands, ten thousand, a hundred thousand...
"Nellie recited as she counted the number of digits on the screen.The chain of digits was so long that
finally, she gave up.
