It was that one night after work that Luna, out of sheer hunger, groggily got up and unwrapped the box of snacks to munch on.
It turned out that she accidentally unwrapped the gift that she gave Joshua and took a bite on the pen.
She initially thought Joshua would despise the pen, but she did not expect that Joshua would put the pen i n his shirt pocket. "A pen with a bite mark. It's quite special. Thank you."
He was gentle and kind back then, and she fell hard for him.
From then onward, she would chase after his every step, not caring if anyone objected. She had to marry him.
Luna knew he never liked her once. She thought that she could melt his cold heart with her fervent passion.
Alas, he remained aloof to her feelings.
Luna was perplexed. Only she and he knew the origin of this pen. That meant if he threw this pen away, no one would realize that his love for his ex-wife was fake.
Why had he kept this pen all along? He even used it...
"Ms. Luna." Joshua's voice suddenly brought her back t o the present.
Rattled and dazed, she immediately retracted her gaze. "Mr. Lynch, have you finished writing?"
"Yes." Joshua inserted the piece of paper into the file.
He swept a glance at the pen. "You like my pen?" 1
She had eyed the pen for a long time.
Luna nodded. She smiled rather embarrassingly. "I didn’t expect your pen would have a bite mark on it."
Mr. Lynch glanced at the tiny dent on his pen. "This isn't a bite mark. I accidentally hit it against something."
