Luna's breath caught in her throat as soon a s Joshua brought up her moving her luggage into his room.
That morning, she never thought that Joshua would treat her so coldly.
When she woke up in his bed that morning, she could not help feeling a little glad, even though she was so exhausted that she did not even have a single ounce of strength left in her body.
She thought Joshua had been telling the truth when he told her he missed her.
She thought that when he dragged her into bed that night, it was because he could no longer suppress his longingness and lust for her anymore.
Not only that, but when Luna recalled how nice he had been acting toward her lately, a s well as his enthusiasm in investigating Colin's death in order to resolve the vengeance between their two families, she could not help feeling blissful and ended u p moving all her luggage into Joshua's room.
At that time, Luna thought that some things did not need to be said, just like how he had brought her into bed out of longing and how she had moved her stuff into his room out of the same emotions.
However, she never thought that after doing all this, the first thing she heard when she went downstairs was Joshua telling Lucas that he was single and that there was no 'Mrs. Lynch’ around.
His cold attitude and behavior made Luna think that her moving her belongings into his room felt like an utter joke.
Luna still had yet to figure out how she would sneak into his room to retrieve her belongings, but at this moment, Joshua was suggesting that they move in together.
"What gives you the right to make this decision on my behalf?"
"Well, Theo and Bonnie are both your friends, and staying with me will confer them the best protection they can have. Besides-"
He raised his brows at her. "Didn't you tell Lucas to pass on the message to me that you will only leave after returning your remaining four favors? Won't living in the same room as me allow you to repay your debts even quicker?"
There was a teasing lilt in Joshua's curt tone.
Luna bit her lip and clenched her fists.
She wanted to reject him, but the reasons h e had given were indestructible.
He was right; both Theo and Bonnie were her friends.
