It was only by clinging to the identity of the Lewis family’s heiress and using her charm that Luna managed to shine in front of Julian.
But if Autumn’s true identity was ever revealed, Luna’s carefully maintained image as the rightful girlfriend would fall apart in an instant.
Simon’s expression turned cold as he demanded, “Autumn, what are you trying to say p>
Autumn didn’t even blink. “Exactly what it sounds like. If you don’t understand, go look it up online or check a dictionary.
“I don’t have time to waste arguing with you. If you want to keep defending Luna, that’s your business, but don’t bring it to me.
“I don’t care about trash I threw away myself. If Luna’s that eager to pick it up, I won’t stop her p>
With that, she turned and walked off.
Her stomach had started churning again, and she felt absolutely awful.
Maybe it was a visceral reaction from seeing these people.
Everything about them made her sick.
The moment she turned around, she could no longer keep a straight face.
Her brows furrowed tightly as nausea surged.
Clutching her mouth, she ran toward the restroom.
Hector frowned and muttered in frustration, “What’s that supposed to mean? She’s physically disgusted by us now?
“Where does she get the nerve? She’s the one in the wrong, yet now it looks like we’re the villains p>
Watching her flee with her hand over her mouth only made him angrier.
He hadn’t expected her to start detesting them outright.
It was insulting. The more he thought about it, the more infuriated he became.
Simon stared in the direction she’d gone, eyes darkening. “Forget her. Focus on the partnership. We should go talk to Ethan p>
Just then, Julian and Luna walked over, followed by Ryan and Grant.
Luna smiled at Simon. “Simon, are you heading to discuss the collaboration with Ethan? Let’s go together p>
In the middle of a conversation with several industry leaders, Ethan glanced over, preparing to introduce Autumn, only to pause when he spotted the group approaching him.

He instinctively looked behind him.
Strange.
She wasn’t there.
Where was Autumn?
She had been right behind him just moments ago-how did she disappear so quickly?
Did she sneak off early to avoid running into those people?
The thought made Ethan’s expression darken.
Birds of a feather, every one of them had bullied Autumn.
Naturally, he had no reason to be polite.
If it weren’t for Simon’s sincerity and the fact that their collaboration had already been finalized, he truly would’ve considered calling off the deal.
Trailing behind Julian and the others, Ryan tugged Grant’s arm and pointed toward a figure vanishing around the corner.
“Hey, did I just imagine that, or was that Autumn? I think I saw the Lewis brothers talking to her just now p>
“They shared the same last name. You think they might be related or something p>
Grant glanced in the same direction.
He thought he’d seen it too-Autumn speaking with the two Lewis brothers.
They were too far to hear what was being said, but judging by their expressions, it didn’t look like a pleasant conversation.
He frowned thoughtfully. “Maybe they saw Autumn trying to get close to Julian, so they stepped in to warn her off and told her not to go after Luna’s boyfriend p>
