The lighting technician looked at Nick with a questioning glance. Nick nodded slightly, his expression frosty, and said in a low voice, “Do as she says.”

Seeing that Nick had agreed, the lighting technician immediately went to the switch panel and turned on the lights.

First, he shone a beam of cold light onto the button on Bonnie’s back. Immediately, the button began to shimmer with a white glow.

A moment later, the technician adjusted the lighting to a warm red hue, and the button’s color shifted accordingly, turning into a blazing red—as if a flame were burning on her dress.

“It really changes color!” gasps of admiration rippled through the crowd.

I curled my lips into a small smile. “As you all saw, because the moonstone button was coated with a special substance, it reacts to different lighting conditions and changes color.”

“Alright, now please shine the light onto Bonnie&rsqu

    (Wendy’s Perspective)My mind raced.Indeed, compared to the headquarters, the French branch was far looser in management. Given the distance, it would have been much easier for someone to tamper with things there. While thinking, I spoke coldly, “We need to immediately investigate exactly where in France the problem occurred—how the radioactive elements got into the products. Even in the French branch, tampering isn’t that easy. There’s a high chance we have an insider in our company.”“I’ll have someone look into it immediately,” Nick said, his eyes slightly narrowed in agreement.I pressed my lips together, resolute. “I want to go to France myself.”To get to the bottom of this, I felt it was necessary to go personally. After all, anyone who could tamper with a Brown Pack factory is not to be underestimated. And as the head of the Moonlight Rose project, it is my duty to uncover t

    (Wendy’s POV)I glanced at the stack of test results the man held in his hand. It was hard to tell at a glance whether they were genuine or fake. Right now, the most important thing was to find out the truth.I spoke in a firm voice, “We will investigate this thoroughly. Until the investigation concludes, I hope you can cooperate. Why don’t you go back for now? I’ll send someone to verify the necklaces you purchased to see if there’s truly an issue. If it’s indeed our mistake, we will give you a satisfactory solution.”“Of course there’s a problem!” The middle-aged woman pointed at me aggressively. “Don’t think you can stall. If you don’t resolve this today, we won’t leave!”I furrowed my brows, about to reply, when a cold, commanding voice cut through the tension.“We will find out the truth and give everyone a proper explanation!”I looked

    (Wendy’s POV)The next morning.I woke up to find Nick leaning against the edge of the bed, his deep eyes fixed on me.“Nick, what are you doing in my bed?!” I immediately snapped awake, glaring at him with full alertness.Nick raised an eyebrow, a teasing smile playing on his lips. “Look carefully. This is my bed.”I scanned the room, still confused. “Why am I in your bed? What are you planning?”Nick’s half-smile didn’t fade. His voice was calm but carried an undercurrent of mischief. “Don’t you remember what happened last night?”Last night?What happened last night?I rubbed my temples, slowly regaining my memory. I had gone to the bar with Lily, only to encounter that thug Seven and end up being drugged.Later, Nick appeared out of nowhere and took me away. I remembered being unbearably hot and losing consciousness.Vague memories of… inappropriate things with Nick flashed through my mind.I qui

    (Wendy’s POV)“Move? Fine, let’s go. You can do whatever you want, play however you like.” The man in the red shirt eagerly reached for me.I slammed my heel into his foot. He yelped in pain and loosened his grip.I spun around to leave, but he wasn’t done. He grabbed my arm, pulling me toward him. “Tonight, you’re mine!”Bam!I snatched up a nearby bottle and smashed it against his head.Blood gushed instantly.“You little bitch! You’ve had enough, huh?” The man, known as Seven, hadn’t expected my sudden counterattack. His eyes gleamed with murderous rage. “Do you know who I am?”I lifted the bottle slightly, a cold smirk curling on my lips. “I don’t care who you are. Now, scram.”The music on the dance floor roared on, everyone else lost in their own world, oblivious to the chaos in the bar’s corner.Seven

    (Wendy’s POV)I stood quietly, watching it all unfold.Faced with Bruce’s accusations, Bonnie was thrown into a panic.“No, Bruce, listen to me, I don’t even know him!” she stammered desperately.“Baby, how can you say that?” The stranger leisurely rose from the sofa, not the least bit bothered by his nakedness. “Didn’t you tell me you loved me to death? That I was your mate chosen by the Moon Goddess herself? You begged me in tears to complete the bond with you.”Oh? What a performance. It looked like Rina paid him quite a hefty sum.Since he didn’t know me, he naturally assumed Bonnie was the woman in question. Which only made him double down on the act. He slung an arm around Bonnie’s shoulders.“Come on, sweetheart, don’t be shy. We’re all adults here. What’s wrong with a little pleasure? There’s nothing shameful about it.”

  • Stand-In Luna: The Alpha's Real Mate   Chapter 69

    (Wendy’s POV)The night was quiet, the kind that made people feel at ease.I stood on the second-floor balcony, leaning against the railing, gazing up at the stars. My thoughts drifted far away.Nick dancing with Rina… what does that have to do with me?So why does it bother me so much inside?A cool breeze swept past, and I shivered slightly. Just as I was about to head back to the banquet hall, a female voice rang out:“Wendy, so here you are. I’ve been looking all over for you.”I frowned and turned. It was a blonde, blue-eyed mixed-race woman—Bonnie.The memory of the unpleasant incidents with her earlier flashed in my mind, and wariness instantly tightened in my chest.I cast her a cool glance. “What do you want?”“Yes,” Bonnie walked toward me, carrying a tray with two glasses of red wine.She picked one up and held it out to me. “Miss
