Semua Bab Young Bride in a Lightning Marriage: Never Tired of Mr. Leon’s Love: Bab 141 - Bab 150

Once they had introduced themselves, Lucy set aside the papers she was holding and gave Matthew a soft smile."Did you manage to grab something to eat on your way here?"Matthew gazed at Lucy fondly. "Nope, I was waiting for you to finish work."Lucy let out a sigh. "You have to eat well even when I'm not around. What if you upset your stomach?"She was about to lead Matthew and Charlie to the company cafeteria for a quick bite when she turned to Charlie. "Mr. Jennings, any foods you don't eat? I can let the kitchen know. And what's your favorite food? I'll have them whip up a special plate for you."Charlie, hearing this, had to hold back a laugh. She was being so thoughtful, but the way Matthew was showing off their love was worthy of an eye roll. Matthew caught the look on Charlie's face and gave him a cool glance."Don't worry about it. No need to ask him what he wants."What? Lucy looked at Matthew, her face a picture of confusion. She thought, 'He's your buddy, isn't he?

Lucy was having a great chat with Matthew and Charlie when the phone rang, cutting through their fun."Hello?" Lucy answered."Hey, Lulu. What's up with your company? You're in court again?"It was Casey on the other end.Lucy got it in a flash. Lunar Arthouse must have tried to get Casey on board. She reassured her friend with a smile, "Don't worry, all's good here. We've got the case under control, and we're sure to win."They talked a bit more and then said goodbye. Charlie and the rest, who had waited for her to finish, asked, "Who was that? They know about the trouble you're having already?"Lucy thought for a moment before deciding to reveal the details."That was my friend, the best lawyer around. The Quinns probably wanted them for their defense, but my friend declined and called to check on me."Lucy could obviously sort this out on her own, no help needed.…On the other hand, after their setback with Casey, the Quinn family quickly hired a new lawyer to defend them

Lucy walked out of the courthouse without even glancing back at Luna. She was heading home and missed the sight of Luna's twisted face entirely.The cameras caught everything, though. The reporters were thrilled. They rushed back to their offices, eager to share the juicy story.By the next morning, the tale of the Quinn sisters' courtroom clash was the talk of the town.Luna saw her angry face on the news and felt a surge of fury. In a flash of rage, she threw her phone so hard it shattered. She frantically called her team, ordering them to pull the story from the headlines.It was too late, however. The news had spread far and wide, and removing it would cost a fortune.By the time Quinn Corporation's PR team got the news off the websites, it hardly mattered. Everyone had seen it, and the damage was done. People were buzzing with gossip about Luna's company.The company's reputation plummeted, and investors pulled out, causing the share price to nosedive. The only thing keeping

What good would that do?!Matthew had embarrassed Timothy so badly. Any guy would find it hard to let that slide, and Timothy knew it all too well.Trying to keep his cool, he told his dad, "Don't worry, I've got this."He then hung up.Slumping into his chair, Timothy held his head which was aching with worry. What now? He could not let Lucas Corporation, a hundred-year legacy, crumble on his watch.Just then, Luna rushed into his office, all flustered."Tim!"Seeing her, Timothy's worries lightened a little. He always tried to keep it together in front of his woman."Nana, what's wrong?"Luna was on edge. "Tim, my company needs more money. That lawsuit hit us hard, and we can't bounce back fast enough. If you don't help, I might go under!"Timothy's forehead vein popped. Not this again. Always asking for money, without a single thought for Lucas Corporation's share price.Timothy's mind wandered back to the days he spent studying finance with Lucy. She would not have misse

Timothy could not see Luna's face, but he thought she understood. After he hung up, he drove back to their place.The moment he walked in, a black bag was pulled over his head, and then he felt a hard hit on the back of his head.He fell to the floor, knocked out, with Luna standing over him. She had hatred in her eyes.Luna was panting with a look of triumph in her eyes. "That's what you get for ignoring me and thinking you can replace me," she thought. She grabbed the hemp rope she had bought earlier from the coffee table and tied up Timothy's hands and feet. Then, using a small cart, she pushed him down to the basement of the villa.The basement was a hidden place meant for safety during big disasters. It was stocked with lots of emergency gear and medical supplies.Knowing her way around, Luna took out an IV drip from the medical box, set it up for Timothy, and then used his phone to transfer a bunch of money from his bank account to hers using his fingerprint.Luna gave a
