Chapter 276
Granny Lynch took the check from Theo and glanced at it. Her expression changed to that of a confused one. Why was Joshua’s name signed at the bottom?
Theo smiled. “The reason I ‘m here today, besides picking up Luna from work, is that I wanted to return this check to Joshua.“
Granny Lynch frowned as she tried to make sense of what was happening. Then, after a moment, her eyes widened, and she looked back at Theo. “Is this the check that Joshua paid Mr. Allen with? Are you…“
“I’m Theo Allen.“ Theo grinned at her. “I also want to explain to you, Granny, that the real painting worth ten million dollars is still in my study. I’d never display it publicly. The painting ruined that day was a fake one.“
He glanced at Granny Lynch’s astonished face and continued, “As soon as he found out the painting was ruined, Mr. Lynch immediately issued me a check as compensation. However, I knew I couldn’t take it, so I decided to return it to him.“
Granny Lynch was so shocked that she said nothing in response.
“Now that I’ve returned the money, Luna shouldn’t have to resign anymore. Do you still have any issues with this?“
Granny Lynch lowered her gaze to look at the check, speechless for a moment.
“Alright then…“ muttered Granny Lynch, biting her lip. “She doesn’t have to resign anymore, but she still has to apologize to my granddaughter-in -law!
Although the painting was a fake one, she still ruined it in an attempt to upset Alice! Also, she injured me just now, so she should apologize to me as well! “
“Apologize?“ Luna crossed her arms in front of her chest. “The painting I ruined belongs to Theo. If anything, I should apologize to him and not Alice. Besides…“
Luna turned her head and glared at Granny Lynch. “I didn’t injure you just now, and even if I did, it was because you ruined my design sketch. In that case, shouldn’t you be the one to apologize?“
Joshua immediately froze at Luna’s words. “Granny ruined your sketch?“
“She tore it in half, “ answered Theo with a smile. “ Luna spent a whole afternoon working on that drawing.“
Theo’s reply made Joshua’s brows furrow. He did not answer but glanced at Luna instead. “Hey, I’m asking you.“
Luna rolled her eyes at him. “Yes, your grandmother tore my sketch in half. Although I did grab her just now, I didn’t injure her. Even if I did, I don’t think I’m wrong to do so since she provoked me in the first place. I won’t apologize to her.“ This text is property of Nô/velD/rama.Org.
Granny Lynch’s face turned pale instantly.
Joshua rubbed his eyebrows in frustration and shot Granny Lynch a glance. “Apologize to her.“
Granny Lynch felt defeated, but she perked up as soon as she heard Joshua say that. “Did you hear that? He wants you to apologize! “ she snarled at Luna. “It’s just a drawing, but you injured the CEO’s grandmother just now, so you have to apologize immediately! “
Joshua could not stand any of that anymore. “ Granny, I want you to apologize! “ he bellowed. “ How many times have I told you to stay out of my business? Luna is working for me now! You tearing up her sketch is no different from tearing up a piece of contract in my office! “
Granny Lynch knew she was in the wrong, but she pursed her lips begrudgingly. “That’s different; every contract of yours is worth millions of dollars. How can you compare this to her drawings? It’s not like she’s Moon.“
Theo snorted in laughter. “What makes you think she isn’t?“
Looking at Granny Lynch’s bewildered expression, Theo let out a chuckle. “I guess you didn’t know this, huh? Well, Luna is the legendary Moon herself. It’s a n honor for Lynch Group to have her working here, but she’s not getting the respect she deserves.“
Granny Lynch’s face lost its color. She glanced at Luna dazedly, then looked back at Joshua. “That’s… impossible! “
Ever since she found out that Moon was the most talented and distinguished designer in the field of jewelry design, Granny Lynch had tried to track down Moon’s products, hoping to purchase some for her collection.
