Laura, on the other hand, was a successful woman.
She thought that the higher she climbed the career ladder, the more men would notice her.
However, when she met Joshua, she discovered that this was not the case at all.
No matter how outstanding her performance was, Joshua had never given her even a second glance.
Not only Joshua, but his friend, Jim, and even the artist Theo; none of them even expressed interest in her before.
Laura could not help doubting herself and hating this unfair world.
Why was it that successful women did not
deserve to be fancied? Why, on the other hand, were beautiful women with no brains like Luna and Bonnie so popular among men?
"Dr. Suess.” Luna smiled and fixated her gaze on Laura. "I know you must be angry at the world for being so unfair, and you're frustrated because you don't think you received anything in return for your hard work. Am I right?"
An elegant smile crept across Luna's face as she continued, "Well, there's one thing I'd like you to know, Ms. Laura Suess...
"Before becoming Joshua's wife, I worked as a jewelry designer with the moniker ’ Moon.'
"Maybe you're unsure of Moon's net worth in the jewelry world, but if you don't
believe me, feel free to look it up when you get home.
"I had chosen to give up on my career in jewelry design to take care of me and Joshua's children. You think you're a successful, strong woman, but what I want to tell you is that I'm not as useless as you think I am.
