The Luna Is Gone by Angelique Quinn

Diana’s pov

In an instant, everyone fell silent.

After about a dozen seconds, Avia was the first to react. However, she probably didn’t hear what Kate said clearly, or maybe she was feeling guilty herself. A hint of almost undisguisable panic flashed across her face as she stuttered, “Wh–what fake flagship treasure? The crown on my head is obviously real!”

“No!” Kate, oblivious to her unease, shook her head repeatedly. “Of course, I know the crown on your head is real! I mean Diana; she’s wearing a counterfeit.”

“Diana?”

Hearing this, Avia raised an eyebrow, her eyes flickered, and she sighed in relief. She cleared her throat and said in a low voice, “Kate, are you sure you saw it clearly?”

“It’s real! My friends and I saw it just now! We initially thought the crown on her head was the real flagship treasure of ‘Ocean Heart.‘ It wasn’t until we saw the crown on your head that we realized she was wearing a fake one! If you don’t believe

me…‘

Kate’s gaze began to frantically scan the crowd, then abruptly stopped. She almost jumped up, pointed at me, and shouted, “Look, the crown on Diana’s head is identical to Avia’s!”

As Kate’s words fell, countless eyes instantly focused on me. Then, the whole scene exploded.

“It’s true! The crown on Diana’s head is exactly like Luna Avia’s!”

“Diana is wearing a fake!”

“Is she crazy? Doesn’t she know wearing counterfeits is illegal? Daring to commit a crime on such a grand occasion! Does she want to get arrested?”

“It’s probably vanity. She wants to overshadow Luna Avia, but she didn’t expect us to see through her fake immediately.”

“She’s so foolish! Doesn’t she realize she’s just a discarded woman? Who would believe she can afford the flagship treasure of ‘Ocean Heart‘?”

The discussions grew louder. People around me even automatically parted, creating a path straight through the red carpet for me. It was as if everyone was waiting to see my embarrassment.

I raised an indifferent eyebrow, casually scanning the crowd, and finally, my gaze slowly settled on Kate.
