Will You Marry Me, My Ex-Wife? novel Chapter 2400

Luna narrowed her eyes upon hearing this.

She pulled Nellie closer to her and met Thomas' gaze, sneering. "So the reason you got in touch with Joey to set up an urgent meeting with me...was to insult me in person?"

Luna knew she had been behaving impulsively and should have noticed the observations that Nellie had made, but it was almost impossible for her to remain calm in a situation where her child's safety was at risk.

She had been questioning Thomas' motives since the beginning, and when he expressed his longing to have Nellie become his daughter and get to know her better...she could not help putting her guard up.

She had already lost a daughter; she could not allow herself to lose another.

She did not want to go through the pain of losing her daughter—or the immense sorrow she had experienced when she thought Neil had died-once more.

This was why she had placed all her attention on protecting Nellie and overlooked the fact that Thomas had not expressed any signs of adoration toward Nellie at all, as he claimed.

"Why are you so apprehensive toward me, Ms. Luna?" Thomas chuckled when he noticed Luna's rage, then crossed his legs elegantly and said, "After all, no matter what happens, I'm sure we'll become business partners anyway."

Luna narrowed her eyes. "I don't feel like working with you anymore, Mr. Howard."

If Thomas Howard were to become her ambassador, there was no doubt it would be a great help to the start of her career, but

She would do perfectly fine, even without his help!

Luna was confident that her career would be smooth sailing, even if she did not reestablish her career with her old pseudonym, Moon, or enlist Thomas Howard's help.

After all, she was experienced and possessed natural talent in jewelry design, so she knew she would be able to succeed eventually.

She did not have to force herself to work with someone she did not like just to speed up the process.

"Is that so?" Thomas picked up his phone and tapped on the screen.

All of a sudden, a screen rolled down from the wall behind Luna, ;f$;TNY> an image was projected onto it.
