Chapter 2402
As soon as he finished his sentence, Luna instinctively pulled Nellie closer to her side, staring at
Thomas with a guarded look.
"Don''t you dare try to hurt my daughter!"
Thomas could not help chuckling at the sight of Luna''s anxiety.He took another sip of his tea and swept
his nce over Luna''s face.
"Didn''t you hear what your daughter said just now? I''m not at all interested in her."
Then, he shot her a meaningful look and added, "However, I might be interested in some of your other
daughters, should you have any."
Warning bells sounded in Luna''s mind.She bit her lip and shot him a murderous re.
"In your dreams!"
Thomas stared at her for a long time, and then, all of a sudden, a cold sneer crept across his face.
A split secondter, he sighed and nced impassively at Nellie, whom Luna held protectively in her
arms.
"Well, your mother doesn''t allow you toe to me, but what do you think?"
Nellie nced first at Thomas, then at Luna.
Finally, she pursed her lips and reached out to pry Luna''s hand off her body.
For some reason, she could not help feeling that this man meant no harm to her, despite admitting the
fact that he had lied about liking her.
Therefore, Nellie removed herself from Luna''s grasp and picked up the documents they had prepared
for this meeting.
She ambled over to Thomas'' side and plopped down in the seat next to him.
"Mr.Howard, because of the unfortunately short timing, Mommy and I only managed to draft a simple
n.
"Because the majority of your fans are women, we decided to customize some unisex jewelry pieces in
lieu of the market demand.This is the proposal that Mommy and I came up with..."
Nellie''s childlike voice was a stark contrast to the earnest look on her face as she exined the
sketches to Thomas.He could not help narrowing his eyes as he listened to her systematic and logical
exnation.
To be frank, he was not fond of children at all, and he had been lying about liking Nellie, but...
At this moment, she was so cute that he could not tear his eyes away from her.
If only Nellie were not Joshua Luna''s daughter...He could not believe that Joshua and Luna had raised
Nellie in such afortable environment, whereas Riley...

A glimmer of malice shed through his narrowed eyes.
Meanwhile, Luna stood opposite them, watching anxiously as Nellie presented her design scheme to
Thomas.She bit her lip nervously, and she could feel her heart thumping in her chest.
Even at this minute, she still could not figure out what this man had up his sleeve.
After all, Nigel had already investigated Thomas Howard from head to toe before arriving at Bamboo
House, and they found that he had nothing inmon with the Lynch or Landry families.
However, he seemed to be so familiar with everything about her! Not only that, but Luna could feel the
hostility radiating off this man''s body.
Why was this so? All of a sudden, the image that she had seen on Anne''s social media popped into her
mind.
Could the man that had helped Thomas with his luggage be Malcolm, after all? If Malcolm had indeed
started working for Thomas...everything would make sense.
She and Malcolm had been friends for six years, and he knew almost everything about her, but...
Why was he working for Thomas, and why would Thomas even obey hismands? Why was
Thomas so hostile toward her? Luna could not seem to find an answer to either of these questions.
As Luna''s mind was swept away in this current of thoughts, Nellie had finished exining the design
concept and scheme to Thomas.
"What do you think about this, Mr.Howard?"
Thomas had never been interested in jewelry at all, and on top of that, the only thing on his mind during
Nellie''s presentation was Riley, as well as his hatred toward Luna and Joshua.
