“How did you know I was working late 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 place

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 explanation.

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. The landlord 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 glanced in Joshua’s direction, seemingly

looking straight at him.

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

Alice again, asking him to come 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 you coming home? That crazy lady 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 crazy lady isn’t letting us have any snacks either. She says it’s bad for us! The last

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’m coming home now.“ Joshua hung up the phone and glanced 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 hour later , Joshua’s car stopped in front of Blue Bay Villa.

”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 glanced 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’d come home on time on some days, but I ’11 also have days when I’ll

work late. 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 becoming 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 blame her, though. She’s never

been exposed to etiquette like this since she doesn’t come 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

placed 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.
