The Spare Wife by Nadia Gordon

Chapter 456 Sweet and Smooth

“Also, Luna is very capable. She manages L.Moon’s orders, contracts, and more. She’s the one handling everything. If a girl like her isn’t considered outstanding in your eyes, then what kind of girl is considered outstanding?” Josh continued to reason with Scarlett.

“In any case, I won’t agree!” Scarlett’s voice grew louder again.

After a sigh, he said, “This is prejudice. You upset me.”

With that, he turned and went upstairs, leaving Scarlett staring at him in disbelief.

A moment later, she pressed on her chest and looked at Kelly. “Oh my, he’s upset? I’m the one who should be upset! He clearly knew we were in conflict with L.Moon, yet he’s dating Luna. He’s trying to ruin this family.”

Kelly patted her chest and said, “Luna and Josh haven’t even met many times. Even if he likes her, she may not necessarily like him back. Dating him seems deliberate.”

Of course, Scarlett knew that Luna had ulterior motives, but she had already captivated Josh.

“When is Dad coming back?” Kelly suddenly asked.

“His overseas project still has some time to go. I can handle this matter,” Scarlett said, wiping away her

tears.

Kelly grunted and didn’t press the matter further.
