"I will." After reminding Theo of some important details, Luna finally hung up. Putting away her phone, she closed her eyes and leaned back on the leather upholstery of the car, her thoughts in a mess.
If not for what happened to Gwen, maybe she... would not consider taking revenge against Alice. She was a woman too, she understood too well how painful it was to go through what Gwen experienced. And the source of this pain was Alice's hatred towards Luna. If this time she did not make Alice show her true colors and force Joshua to expose her true identity, all the pain that Gwen suffered would be in vain.
She intentionally sent Theo abroad because of this too. One of her friends had already suffered. If unfortunately, she failed, she did not want to drag Theo down with her.
"What are you thinking about?" All of a sudden, Luke's voice dragged Luna's mind back to the present. She opened her eyes and smiled in his direction. "I heard you have been busy getting rid of the Walter family's and Liam Clark's remaining followers?"
Luke laughed, "Why?"
Luna raised her eyes, looking at him calmly and indifferently. "I can help you."
The man lifted his eyebrows, opened the car door and
climbed back into the passenger seat, then raised his eyes and looked forward. "How?"
By the time Luna and Luke finished discussing Alice, i t was already past 11 a.m. The moment the conversation between them ended, Luke's phone rang, it was a call from Gwen. Luke pressed the button for the loudspeaker.
"This is Luke Larson."
The woman's voice drifting from the other end of the phone was still very weak, her breath unsteady. "Are you lying to me again? You said Luna is here, where is she? Luke, I’m begging you, please don’t treat me like a fool again, please?"
