Sophie’s voice was delicate and coquettish as she purred, “But I’m upset! Just imagining you spending your anniversary with her and what you two will do later makes me sick.”
Guessing Sophie was jealous, Simon chuckled lightly and coaxed her, “Be good. I’ve already given you every single drop in me. I won’t touch her tonight. Besides, didn’t we do it three rounds two hours ago? Are you still not satisfied?”
“Hmph, but I want more… Send her home quickly and come to me.”
“You little minx. Follow me in your car later. We’ll do it in the car.”
“You’re such a bad boy!”
Soon, the sounds of sticky, intimate kissing came through the line.
Luna’s hands trembled as she ended the call abruptly.
She stared at the cake in front of her, a wave of nausea and revulsion washing over her.
It felt as if something was gripping her heart, twisting it until she was breathless, dizzy, and utterly uncomfortable.
Gripping the fork, she stabbed at the chocolate plaque that read “Happy 5th Anniversary,” smashing it to pieces.
Simon returned half an hour later. When he noticed Luna had barely touched the cake and saw her pale face, his heart clenched with concern.
“You look pale! Are you feeling unwell? I’ll take you to a doctor right now.”
The urgency in his tone was palpable, but Luna turned her head away, refusing to look at that hypocritical face.
“I heard something disgusting. I don’t feel like eating anymore,” Luna snapped.
“What did you hear?” Simon’s thick brows furrowed, his anxiety apparent.
“You wouldn’t want to know.” Luna’s eyes were red.
Simon was at a loss. He stood and tried to hold her, but she dodged him.
Luna got up and strode out of the cake shop, immediately hailing a cab. She instructed the driver to take her straight home.
“Lulu, wait for me!”
Simon, unable to stop the cab, hurried back to his Bentley and started chasing after it.
Luna sat in the back seat, her gaze fixed on the rearview mirror.
The scene playing out behind her was almost comical—the Bentley followed the cab closely while the pink G-Class trailed right behind the Bentley.
Once they entered the villa area, Luna stepped out of the cab. Simon got out of his car immediately and anxiously grabbed her hand.
“Lulu, why are you upset? Is it because I went to deal with the car issue instead of staying to eat cake with you?”
Luna tilted her head up, staring directly at him.
Simon’s handsome face was full of concern and guilt, yet there wasn’t the slightest hint of fear of being caught cheating.
“Yeah.”
Simon sighed upon hearing that. “I’m at fault for handling things poorly. Next time something like this happens, I’ll stay with you even if the car gets wrecked.” He paused, then gently held Luna’s hand and cautiously asked, “Luke called just now. An important client had an accidental fall and is in critical condition. I need to head over. Is it okay if I go, Lulu?”
Luna frowned, her sharp instincts catching the flicker of excitement and anticipation hidden in his otherwise helpless expression.
Simon sure was eager to rush to his rendezvous. He was even making up a lie about a client’s accident.
Luna only put on a small smile. Not wanting to waste her energy on exposing him, she simply responded with a calm hum.
She walked toward the villa, but when she reached the front door, she didn’t go inside.
Instead, she turned and headed toward the parking lot. There, she saw the two people passionately embracing and kissing inside the pink G-Class.
Inside the car, Sophie’s sultry eyes sparkled.
“I wore these black stockings just for you. No underwear, of course. After all these years, I know your tastes haven’t changed.”
Simon’s dark eyes were filled with unrestrained excitement. His hands eagerly reached under her skirt as his voice turned hoarse. “Are you planning to drain me tonight? I can’t wait anymore. Let me put it in first.”
Sophie stopped his hand. When she saw the frustrated look in Simon’s eyes, her red lips curled in a smile. “Let’s go somewhere else. You like the lakeside, don’t you?”
Simon smirked, his Adam’s apple bobbing as he replied, “Are we doing something so bold tonight?”
“You’re spending tomorrow with me for my birthday, right? Think of this as your reward.” Sophie winked playfully.
The pink G-Class quickly started and drove out of the underground parking lot.
Luna’s phone suddenly vibrated. She received a WhatsApp message from Simon.
She opened it to find a location pin by the lakeside.
