THE SPARE WIFE - Season 5 Episode 50

Within a week of breaking up with Howard, Luna officially announced her relationship with Josh. Their high-profile dates, including public displays of affection, made Abigail worry that Luna was pushing things too far and might face backlash.

As Abigail worked diligently on her designs, Eric rushed into her workspace, looking astonished. “Did you know that Josh and Luna are together?”

She felt a bit apprehensive and replied, “Yes…”

“How did they get together? I asked Josh, but he didn’t say anything.” Eric found it all quite bewildering.

The sudden development of public displays of affection was like throwing a torpedo into the high society circle, causing quite a commotion.

“They’re in love, and it’s not for us to judge,” she replied with lowered eyes.

He went to sit on the nearby single couch and said earnestly, “I certainly wish them happiness in their relationship. But I heard that the Pearson Family has been going after you guys and disrupted the collaboration with Fairy Meadow, which is now being terminated.”

“Yes. There were significant tax issues at Fairy Meadow, and the Pearsons reported them. They’re stil! auditing their accounts. The news has spread like wildfire online, and L.Moon fans don’t want us to collaborate with Fairy Meadow to avoid scandals that would harm our reputation,” she patiently explained

to him.

He nodded. “I see. In that case, it makes sense not to collaborate with them. The situation at Fairy Meadow is too chaotic, and you’d be taking on unnecessary burdens by working with them.”

Abigail did not respond. Eric was unaware of L.Moon seeking an alternative, which was why he held that view. She also liked the brand name ‘Fairy Meadow.’ Regardless of the circumstances, she wanted to acquire them.

He chatted with her in her workspace for a long time, and it was not until Josh called and asked him to bring her to the bar that they decided to leave.

Since Fairy Meadow’s new product launch was hanging in the air, Abigail no longer needed to work late into the night, so she went along with Eric. Not for any other reason but because Luna was there.

When they arrived at the bar, they spotted Josh with his arm around Luna’s waist, sitting on a couch and chatting intimately. They were a handsome couple, looking close and affectionate.

They were at an upscale bar frequented by wealthy individuals.

As soon as Luna saw Abigail, she waved at her. “You’re here!”

Abigail could not understand how she managed to be so intimate with Josh when she claimed not to like

him.

“You two seem to be getting along well. Abigail walked closer and quietly commented to Luna.

Luna was all smiles and said. Tve seen worse, he’s grown on me more than Howard”

I can’t keep up with your progress Abigail remarked

Luna chuckled twice and leaned in close to whisper to her, “Because he’s head over heels in love with me.”

Abigail pursed her lips and smiled. “You’re quite the charmer.”

With Luna leading her, Abigail sat down. Josh was engaged in a cheerful conversation with Eric, who appeared to envy his relationship with Luna.

“You can order dishes here as well. The food is pretty good-”

“Oh, what a coincidence! Ms. Quinn and Miss Smith, you’re here too?” Luna’s words were interrupted by Alfie, who suddenly joined the conversation.

The ladies then turned to see Alfie, Damon, and Sean approaching. “Indeed,” said Abigail as she withdrew her gaze.

When Sean saw Eric, he subconsciously tightened his hand on his side. The news of Josh and Luna’s relationship had spread throughout the upper-class circles of Capitalis. As Josh’s good friend, it was only a matter of time before Eric and Abigail became a couple through Luna.

Plus, it was very likely that Luna agreed to Josh’s pursuit because L.Moon could not hold on any longer.

Alfie pulled Damon along and sat down next to Eric. “Since we’re all acquaintances, why don’t we sit at the same table?”

Damon agreed quickly. “That’s a great idea. It’s also an excellent opportunity to discuss the situation with the Pearson Family and how they sabotaged the collaboration between Fairy Meadow and L.Moon.”

His words were rather inappropriate, rendering the previously relaxed atmosphere tense and awkward. In an attempt to disengage from the situation, Abigail grabbed the menu, after which Sean found a seat and signaled a waiter. “Bring a few more menus,” he whispered to the waiter.

Alfie looked at Josh, whose expression was cold, and asked, “What’s going on with the Pearsons internally?” “Since you already know it’s an internal matter of our family, why ask further?” Josh replied in a cold tone.

Abigail was about to order when Luna leaned over and whispered, “Have you decided what to eat? If not, you can take a look at the drinks first.”

Abigail whispered back, “No. Any suggestion?”

Luna looked at the menu while whispering to her, “Are these two close to Sean?”

“Uh.. Alfie has a good relationship with Sean, and isn’t Damon in business with the Willis Family? Abigail answered in a hushed tone.

“The relationships seem quite complicated. Are Alfie and Damon deliberately causing a scene here?” Luna said and then cleared her throat.

Moon’s two victims had not even cornered Josh yet, but Damon and Alfie seemed to be interrogating him already.
