Luna was a little stunned at Aura's words.
After a while, Luna smiled. "Congratulations, Ms.
Gibson.”
"I know that you can't believe it.” Aura slowly put the wine glass down on the table. She looked at Luna with her intricately made-up eyes.
"You're just short-sighted. It’s not your fault. How long have you been working for Joshua?"
Aura smiled smugly. "Do you know why Luna Gibson, that coward, only dared to send her daughter back but not show herself?”
Luna lowered her eyes and fiddled with the wine glass on the table. "I don't know."
"Because she does not dare to come back. She knew better than anyone that her accident back then was not an accident. Someone planned it."
"Is that so?" Luna raised her eyebrows. She looked at Aura. "How do you know, Ms. Gibson?"
"Because Joshua was the one that planned the accident. Of course, I know about it.”
Aura’s voice was still calm, but her smile was smug." Joshua always liked me. When he knew that Luna was pregnant, he was afraid that I would be unhappy, s o he decided to get rid of her. I only knew about this
later on. I even had a huge fight with him over this."
Luna dug her nails into her palms. She forcefully suppressed the overwhelming emotions.
"Why are you telling me all this, Ms. Gibson? I don't think we're close enough for you to share your secrets with me, right?"
Aura must be up to something for telling her all these out of the blue.
"I'm not sharing secrets with you," Aura sneered," you're not worth it. I only want to tell you that I am the one and only in Joshua's heart."
Aura looked at Luna arrogantly. "I’m only showing off. After all, you are the only woman who has been a threat to me, after so many years. But, after tonight...”
Aura raised her eyebrows. "You will be utterly defeated by me."
Then, she stood up.
"I hope you stop trying to seduce Joshua after tonight, i f not..."
Aura calmly smiled. "Luna Gibson who was pregnant with triplets could be hit off the bridge into the sea, that could be you too." 1
