Chapter 1753
Luna and Mr. Hanson’s contract signing was a successful one.
In order to showcase Luna’s efficiency, Charlotte had even employed some reporters from a few major news outlets to help photograph the entire ceremony.
This was Luna’s first time attending something like this, and even though she did not look scared, she was secretly very nervous.
When standing next to Mr. Hanson, smiling for the cameras, she had even inched a little further away from him.
She could not forget what had happened last night at all.
However, to Luna’s surprise, Mr. Hanson snorted in laughter when he saw this. “I should be the one trying to get away from you. After all, you’re clearly the more heartless, more deceitful one of us two.
“What are you trying to do, moving away from me like this? Are you trying to get the reporters to write up an article about this, so people will think I’m a pervert?”
Mr. Hanson lowered his voice and said in a voice so soft it was only audible to the two of them, “Still, I still you’re too impatient. Do you think it’s worth it, using those videos to threaten me into doing business with you when the consequences are not being invited to any parties and gatherings anymore in the future?”
Luna was puzzled to hear this. She furrowed her brows and asked in a low voice, “What do you
mean?”
Mr. Hanson let out another snort when he saw her confused look. “What a great actress.”
This woman had sent her an edited video of him at the dinner party and even threatened to show it to her wife, but at this moment, she was playing innocent and even had the audacity to ask him what he meant.
Was he not allowed to complain a little, even after being forced to give up working with Joshua Lynch, the most powerful businessman in Merchant City, and instead work with her?
As soon as he thought of this, Mr. Hanson, too, shifted away from Luna, so much so that the distance between them could accommodate two more people.
Soon, the long and boring ceremony had ended.
Luna let out a sigh of relief and returned backstage, where she slumped on her chair in exhaustion, letting Roanne take off her makeup for her.
“Where’s Charlotte?” she asked when she could not see Charlotte even after glancing around the room.
Roanne curled her lips into a smile and gently removed the false lashes from Luna’s eyelids.” She just left after receiving a call; she looked extremely worried. Maybe something urgent has happened.”
Luna murmured in agreement, but she could not help recalling what Mr. Hanson had told her
just a few minutes ago.
He claimed that she had threatened him, but she had not done anything at all.
He even called her heartless and deceitful…
Luna closed her eyes and furrowed her brows. “Do you know how Charlotte managed to get M r. Hanson to agree to do business with us?”
She remembered that she had offended him the night before, but at this moment, Mr. Hanson had agreed to work with them. It was clear Charlotte had done something to change his mind.
Roanne fell silent for a moment, contemplating.
Finally, she let out a sigh and told Luna everything, including how Charlotte had placed the pinhole camera and recording device in her bag.
However, she was still careful not to expose Charlotte’s deliberate ignoring of Luna’s calls for help.
Luna was a little displeased to learn that this was how she had earned her first business contract.
She had a feeling that Charlotte had used unethical means to get Mr. Hanson to agree to do business with them, but she never expected that…
She never expected that it was all the work of hidden cameras and recording devices!
After removing her makeup, Luna initially wanted to continue waiting for Charlotte backstage, but she had just sat down for two minutes when she received a call from Theo asking her when she wanted to visit Gwen.
As soon as she thought of Gwen, Luna did not want to wait any longer and instead strode out o f the room, intending to leave.
As soon as she left the room, she caught sight of Charlotte standing at the end of the hallway.
She was pacing around as she talked on the phone, appearing a little anxious.
Luna glanced at the time.
She still had half an hour until her meeting time with Theo, so she had a little time to spare.
