"If I didn't want Fiona to spend more time with me, why else would I send the emails to Bonnie? For Luna? What a joke. Don't you know? I hated her right from the beginning, for six years. Nothing has changed!"
Joshua's words rang in her ears continuously. After leaving Jude's office, she boarded the first bus she saw. The people coming and going on the bus seemed t o have nothing to do with her. It was not until the bus reached the terminal that she got out of the bus in a daze.
Getting off the bus, she gazed around at her surroundings, and unexpectedly discovered that she had arrived at Anne's house by chance.
It was a working day and during working hours, Anne should be at the hospital right now, right? But recently Anne has been busy with her recent engagement to John Young, she might have applied for leave and stayed at home.
At this thought, she headed upstairs and pressed on Anne’s doorbell. Unexpectedly, Anne was home. Not only was she home, her boyfriend, John was there too.
"It's almost lunchtime, I haven’t prepared lunch yet."
Seeing Luna, John read the room and stood up
quickly. "I'll go get some takeout."
With that, he left in a blur.
"What’s wrong?” After John left, Anne pulled the downtrodden Luna to sit on the sofa. "Didn't you win the competition yesterday? Not only that, it was a beautiful victory, you even successfully cleared the rumors flying about you online. But why do I feel that you’re still very unhappy?”
Luna closed her eyes and sighed deeply. She told Anne about everything that happened in Jude's company, not leaving out a single detail. Finally, she lay on the sofa dispiritedly, looking at Anne with faint eyes. "I feel so confused now."
Anne's jaw dropped open, and it remained unhinged for a long time. "This...this is too much, don't you think?”
