Wesley rolled his eyes. "Mr. Lynch claims that his ex-wife isn't dead and that he’s still waiting for her to return, but it's been so many years now. I think it’s safe to say that she isn't coming back anymore."
He continued, "If in a couple more years Mr. Lynch gets tired of waiting for her and wants to remarry, Courtney will be his first choice for sure!"
Luna's lips twisted into a smile and said nothing in response. She could not understand why Wesley was s o confident in his prediction, yet at the same time, it was not too far-fetched either.
Even if Joshua changed his mind and wanted to marry someone who looked like the past Luna, it was none of her business anymore. The only thing she had in mind was to get pregnant and give birth to Joshua's child so she could cure Nigel.
While Luna was deep in thought, the elevator arrived o n the 18th floor.
Wesley cleared his throat and led Luna into the department. "Hello, everyone, I'd like to introduce you t o a new member of our company,” he announced.
"This is Luna. Our CEO, Mr. Lynch, hired her to be a design intern and assistant. If there’s anything you need, feel free to ask her for help!" Wesley patted Luna's shoulder gently. "Please get to know your
colleagues."
With that, he turned around and walked out, leaving Luna to fend for herself.
Shannon McCartney, the department head, gave Luna a dismissive glance and led her to an empty desk. " You can sit here," she ordered, tossing a stack of documents onto the desk that sent a cloud of dust flying through the air.
"These are the proposals that the CEO sent back to us for amendments. I want you to run up to his office and resubmit them to him." She gave Luna a smirk before leaving. "Don't mess this up."
There was a girl sitting next to Luna’s desk, who appeared to be a university student. She nudged her glasses and whispered to her, "Luna, please be careful. This proposal has been sent back to us five times now, and every single person who submitted it ended up getting scolded by the CEO. Shannon sent you because she's trying to make things difficult for you.”
Luna gave her a small smile. "Do you happen to have some tissue?"
The girl paused and handed her a packet of tissue papers.
