Jude wanted to reject Luna’s suggestion. But-
Right when he was about to open his mouth to reject her, Luna took out her phone and pressed the button t o set it on loudspeaker.
Nigel’s cheerful voice drifted from the phone." Mommy, if Uncle Jude does not agree, I’ll expose the secrets in his phone to the public! About the identity o f the goddess that you have been crushing on for ten years, and how you lost badly at a game and reported your opponent to get his account knocked...I know everything!”
Listening to the little guy's slightly immature and threatening words, Jude frowned. "Nigel, it’s wrong of you to do this! If I get angry enough, I will sue you!”
"Oh." Nigel pouted and said, "But Uncle Jude, if you sue me, my Daddy will have a heart-to-heart with you. Don’t worry, he can’t bear to watch as his beloved son rots in prison.”
Jude was speechless."..."
The office was quiet for a long period of time. Finally, Jude had no choice but to admit defeat and called Joshua resignedly.
After a few beeping tones, the call was connected.
Joshua's low and indifferent voice drifted across the
radio waves. "She left?"
Jude pursed his lips and nodded silently. "Yeah, she left. I told you I don't have to leave through the back door, I can just hide behind the secret door. Luna isn’t so all-powerful that she can guess where the secret door in my office is."
On the other end of the phone, Joshua laughed faintly at his friend’s words and said, "That’s true, she has always been silly and stupid. She’s not that bright either."
