Ryan suddenly understood and nodded with a look of realization.
He gave a dismissive snort. “You’re probably right. I was wondering how someone like Autumn, just an orphan, could possibly have any ties to the Lewis family p>
Grant didn’t respond to that, instead nudging him forward.
“Let’s go. They’re already ahead of us p>
Simon approached Ethan and clinked glasses with him.
“Mr. Sharp, about the collaboration we finalized a while ago-when do you think we can sit down to go over the details p>
He deliberately emphasized the word “finalized,” prompting the other company reps nearby-who had been chasing a deal with Vanguard for ages without success-to exchange stunned glances.
So, the Lewis Group was partnering with Vanguard?
That was huge, and no one had heard a word about it until now.
Ethan glanced at Simon, took a sip of wine, and replied casually, “Appreciate you taking a personal interest, Mr. Lewis. So, who will be handling this project p>
He had a strong hunch it would be Luna but still asked politely.
If there was a way to keep Autumn from having to deal with her, he’d take it.
Simon gestured toward Luna.
“This is my sister, Luna Lewis. I believe you’ve met her. She’s a PhD graduate from Highend and currently one of our lead engineers.
“My sister is eager to learn. I hope you’ll give her the chance to grow under your team’s guidance p>
His voice carried a note of pride.
Luna had always been the family’s shining star.
She had contributed to several major projects even before finishing her degree-something not many could
claim.
So, when it came to her credentials, Simon had full confidence,
Ethan’s eyes shifted from Luna to Julian, then back to Luna.
He asked in a neutral tone, “Ms. Lewis, what exactly is your relationship with Mr. Carter p>
He knew full well she was the one who came between Autumn and Julian-that question was deliberate.
Luna’s cheeks turned slightly red.

She glanced at Julian but didn’t answer.
It was Hector, standing behind her, who stepped in to answer the question for Luna.
“Isn’t it obvious, Mr. Sharp? They’re clearly in a relationship p>
His tone suggested Ethan was being deliberately obtuse-how could anyone miss something so obvious?
“Is that so?” Ethan cast a sharp glance at Julian.
“That’s odd. I’d heard that Mr. Carter is already married. And not just recently-he’s been married for years p>
He said it deliberately, wanting to see how Julian would react.
Parading a mistress around in front of the legal wife?
Only Julian could pull off something so brazen.
Any other man would’ve never had the nerve to be this shameless.
At Ethan’s words, Simon and Hector’s expressions darkened.
Both turned their eyes toward Julian.
Julian, unfazed, met Ethan’s gaze calmly and asked in a measured tone, “And where exactly did you hear that, Mr. Sharp p>
He hadn’t expected Ethan to bring up his marital status here, catching him off guard.
Still, after years navigating the corporate world, he had long since mastered the art of concealing any trace of discomfort.
