Substitute Bride and Her Husband Who Disappeared novel Chapter 128

Luna glanced at her, scoffed, and shrugged off her hand, striding into the room.

"Do you think Young Master Firth is spending every day on set with Nancy to flaunt their love, or does he truly care for her?

The question hit Vivian like a bolt of lightning. She stood there, stunned, and then managed to stammer, "But... isn't Charlie... gay?"

"What 'gay'?"

Luna tossed her bag onto the nearby couch, and then gracefully sat down, crossing her hands over her lap. She regarded Vivian with a cold, half-smile.

"Vivi, do you really believe a man as proud as Charlie would play lovey-dovey with Nancy on set just for show?"

Vivian bit her lip hard. She knew better than anyone Charlie's aloof nature. If he weren't genuinely fond of someone, he would never stoop so low as to accompany a woman at her mundane work.

"But…"

She shuffled over to Luna, sat next to her, and stared intently at Luna.

"Luna, that doesn't count. At the opening ceremony, the way he treated me... it seemed alright, I guess, but I could feel his indifference."

As she spoke, she clutched Luna's hand as though it were a lifeline. "His affection for Nancy must be an act, right? Just for show?"

Luna shot her a glance, shook her head in resignation, and sighed. "Vivi, I can't answer that. I can only say that Charlie treats Nancy very well. If he is pretending, and then he's doing an excellent job."

"He's definitely pretending!"

Vivian spat out her words through gritted teeth. "There's no way he could fall for that wench Nancy. She has nothing to offer him. Why would he like her?"
