Chapter 352
Andrius?
Luna frowned.
Her heart was leaning towards the secret boss of Celestial Enterprise, so when she was forced
to look at Andrius again, she found nothing but dissatisfaction.
He was boastful, incompetent, lazy, and had no ambitions.
She never knew what her grandfather saw in Andrius.
“Fine.”
Luna did not want to waste any more time on Andrius. She shook her head to discard him out of her mind and agreed to bring him along.
“Andrius…” Harry was not in a good mood when he mentioned Andrius either. “That guy is rude, conceited, and full of himself. You’d better warn him not to cause any trouble before we leave.”
“I will.” Luna nodded in agreement.
Then, Harry left the office.
Luna called Andrius.
“What are you doing?”
“I’m… drinking with a friend.”
Drinking again?
Luna realized the guy seemed to be drinking most of the time when she called him.
She wanted to scold him, but since they were just playing pretend, there was no point for her to be angry. She suppressed her thoughts and informed him about the birthday celebration.
“Tomorrow is my grandmother’s seventieth birthday. We are going to the capital to join the celebration. You are coming as well.”
“Oh.”
Luna was rendered speechless by Andrius‘ brief reply. He was always nonchalant and frivolous. He never showed any concern when she talked to him about serious matters. He never cared about anything but did not have the capabilities to support his frivolous attitude.
Fortunately, whatever his attitude was did not matter because they were never going to have a future together.
Luna was fed up with his attitude. She hung up on him after that.
Meanwhile, at Noir’s garage, Andrius and Noir were drinking together happily.
“Andy, what did she say?” Noir heard Luna’s voice but had no idea what the call was about.
“Her grandmother is having a 70th birthday celebration at the capitol tomorrow. She wants me to tag along.”
“Her grandmother? The Conerys…”
Noir frowned. He worked many jobs under Andrius‘ command, and one of them was to investigate the Conerys.
Andrius noticed the pause. Bothered, he glanced at Noir and asked, “What is it? Something wrong with the Conerys?”
“It’s not that.” Noir explained, “I did some investigations on the Conerys. They are quite well- known in the capital. Luna’s grandmother, Jane Montecarlo, was a snob. She always looked down on Luna’s father, Harry.
“But… her daughter, Jade, married Harry in the end, which caused the fallout between the two families. Especially after Jade died of sickness, the two families never contacted each other anymore. They were like strangers.
“Only Rainbow’s father, Bernard, kept in contact with the Crestfalls, but were not too close either.”
Andrius did not know about the complicated relationship between the two families. He shook his head and finished another glass.
“I think…” Noir shook his head and smiled meaningfully, “The old lady knows that New Moon Corporation is doing well lately because they took down Simon–Tooke. That’s why…”
He did not continue, but Andrius knew exactly what he meant.
“When they are poor, no one cares; when they are doing well, people come to them like a flock of birds. It’s actually understandable. It seems like…” Andrius sighed and continued, “I have to prepare a big surprise for the event to make Luna look good.”
“Hahaha.”
“The Wolf King attending her birthday event is the biggest surprise that she could ever ask for. Unfortunately, the old lady will never know.”
The two of them continued drinking.
Before they could move on to the second pint, someone called. It was Sonia.
“Mr. Moonshade, do you remember Norman Houser? The old man we visited the other day? He’s here, begging us to save his granddaughter.”
Norman Houser was the father of a deceased soldier!
His son had died on the battlefield. Not only did he fail to get the compensation, but his son was also accused as a renegade.
Fortunately, Andrius intervened and made him a promise.
