“Ma’am, you’re hurt. Let me ask the driver to take you to the hospital p>
But Autumn shook her head.
“No need. He’s probably already driving Sienna somewhere. Just bring me the first-aid kit. A little medicine will do p>
Zoe helped her to the sofa, then brought over the kit and carefully tended to her wound.
Meanwhile, Sienna had just gotten into the car and immediately called Julian.
The moment the call connected, she began crying as she recounted what happened.
Tears streaming down her face, she wailed, “Julian, you need to divorce Autumn. I went to your place today and asked her to make something for Mom. Not only did she refuse, she slapped me twice!
“You have no idea how arrogant she was. She even said I should go tell you myself and have you divorce her.
“Julian, I can’t take it anymore. You need to leave her and marry Luna. Autumn is a scheming and manipulative woman. She’s not good enough for you p>
Julian frowned faintly.
Since when had Autumn grown so bold?
She actually dared to hit his sister? Was she no longer interested in staying married?
Listening to Sienna’s endless sobbing, he felt a wave of irritation and muttered, “Got it p>
He hung up without another word, just as a hand reached over and took the phone from him.
Luna was dressed in a low-cut camisole today, and when she leaned forward, the curves of her chest were barely concealed.
She settled herself on his lap, gently massaging the frown between his brows.
“What’s wrong? Something bothering you again? Tell me, I might be able to help p>
Julian closed his eyes, clearly enjoying the way she worked her fingers.
He wrapped an arm around her slim waist, pulling her closer.
After a brief pause, he said, “My sister just got back and already got herself slapped. Now she’s all worked up and calling to vent p>
Sienna had been spoiled by their mother.
The moment something went wrong, she acted like the sky was falling, blowing every little thing out of proportion.
It was exhausting.

“I see,” Luna murmured, resting her cheek against his.
“Don’t worry, I’ll give her a call later. Girls like her are easy to pacify p>
Her red lips brushed against his, slowly trailing downward until they reached the base of his throat.
She tugged gently at his tie, expertly loosening it and tossing it onto the desk, then started unbuttoning his shirt.
Julian’s breathing grew heavier, his eyes darkening with desire.
In one motion, he gripped her waist and lifted her up into his arms.
His low, husky voice rumbled above her. “That eager, huh p>
Luna wrapped her arms around his neck and leaned in, lips brushing his.
“Because I’m a little kitten that can’t be satisfied, remember, darling p>
The teasing words sent a rush of heat straight through Julian, fanning the fire already burning inside him.
He lowered his head and captured her tempting lips in a kiss, deep and consuming.
Just as the two became entangled, the phone on the desk started to ring.
Luna nudged him gently and murmured, “Your phone’s ringing. Maybe it’s something important p>
The interruption clearly annoyed him.
A flash of irritation crossed his face before he quickly composed himself.
He growled into her ear, voice thick with desire. “Ignore it. Let’s keep going p>
With her soft body in his arms, the last thing he wanted was any outside distraction.
He chose to simply tune it out.
They quickly lost themselves again, slipping into the lounge room nearby.
Before long, heavy breathing and low moans filled the space.
The phone, still ringing on the desk, went unanswered-its persistent caller trying again and again, undeterred.
