Jude was amused by this. "So what are you trying to say—that your wife is pretty or not? First, you claim she looks beautiful even without makeup, yet now you say that she won't stand out among the crowd if she goes out bare-faced?"
Jude chirruped, "Did you hear this, Luna? He's a hypocrite!"
Luna chuckled at this. "I don't mind. Perhaps I'm not that pretty in other people's eyes, but as long as he thinks I'm beautiful, that's all that matters."
With that, she picked up her coat and turned around. "Well, I'll be off now!"
Jude sighed when he heard the door close behind her. "The truth is, I'm kind of envious of you and Luna's relationship, but…"
He paused and finally said, "I truly do not dare to get involved with Miss Chance, yet the woman that I love has been chased out of Banyan City by my parents due to her family background. The truth is, you really need to be lucky to find someone whom you love and who is suitable to be with you."
Joshua smiled at this. "What did Miss Chance do to make you hate her so much?"
Joshua, too, knew who this woman was. After all, there were only so many people in Banyan City's upper class, and the Chance family had worked with Lynch Group on many occasions too, therefore Joshua was familiar with their daughter, Vanessa Chance.
"Don't even bring this up." Jude sulked at this. "I've never been tricked by any woman before in my life, and she's the first one! She may look naive, but she's a deceitful and sly woman!"
Joshua was even more curious to hear about this. "How is that so? Did she trick you into sleeping with her?"
Joshua's question seemed to stab right at Jude's weak spot, and he immediately frowned. "Let's not talk about this anymore. Where are Luna and her friend going? I'll meet her there to hand the documents to her."
