Chapter 1103

7 pm.

Because there were many guests coming, Luna specially set up the garden behind Blue Bay Villa as the
party venue.

Many years ago, when she first got married to Joshua, Luna had come up with an interesting thought
while she was taking a walk in this garden…

She longed to host a small gathering with her friends in this garden, laughing and having fun together on
a summer evening. How marvelous would this be!

However, she knew that this was just wishful thinking.

For starters, she was from Sea City, so after moving to Banyan City, she did not have any friends at all,
apart from her sister Aura.

Secondly, at that time, her entire world revolved around Joshua.

Joshua did not like noise or large crowds, so Luna did not even dare suggest this idea to him for fear that
he would get upset or think she was not obedient.

The irony was, after all these years, Luna still ended up hosting her party right in this exact spot.

“You didn’t invite Joshua?“ Gwen, who at this moment was munching on one of Luna’s homemade cakes
next to her, furrowed her brows and glanced at Luna. “Even though he sent you into the mental asylum
and did so many bad things in the past…you yourself also said that the only reason you could save Nigel
was that Joshua betrayed his precious Ms. Blake.

”Not inviting him to your celebration party seems a little harsh, doesn’t it?”



Anne rolled her eyes upon hearing this. ”What do you mean, harsh? You do know Joshua was the one
who sent Luna into the mental asylum and cost her a finger, right? His good deeds don’t make up for his
wrongdoings, so Luna was right not to invite him. This is a joyous occasion celebrating both Luna and
Nigel’s escape from death, so we shouldn’t bring up that stupid man who fell for Fiona in the first place! “

Every time someone brought up Joshua, Anne could not help but recall how he had defended Fiona,
even though Fiona had hurt John terribly.

Gwen let out a sigh and turned to exchange a glance with Luke but did not say anything in response.

Although she pitied Luna’s fate, at the same time , she could not help but feel that Joshua had his own
reasons for doing all this. Maybe it was because Luke and Joshua were close, so she could not help but
sympathize with him.

She did not think Joshua was as bad a person as everyone made him out to be.

Seeing that Anne and Gwen were about to get into a dispute, Bonnie, who up until now had been playing
with Nigel and Nellie, raised her brows and pointed a t the couple’s seat in the distance. ”There’s
someone who still hasn’t arrived yet. Who is it?”

Luna had specially allocated different seats for the party tonight; the singles shared a table, while the
couples had special seats just for themselves.

However, all the couple seats were taken apart from one.

Luna curled her lips into a smile as she replied, “It’s Shannon and her boyfriend.“

Bonnie and Shannon had known each other for a while. Previously, when Bonnie still went by ‘Lane’ as
her last name, she had worked at the Lynch Group design department for a while, and at that time,
Shannon was her head of department.



Bonnie let out a sigh and said, “Even Shannon has found a boyfriend now. I’m the only one left.“

Seeing how defeated Bonnie looked, Luna smiled and handed her a banana. “I ‘m single too, just like
you.“

At the same time, Christian strode over, holding a fruit platter in his hands.

As soon as he heard what Luna said, he could not help but tease her, “If you give me a chance, then you
won’t be single anymore after tonight.“

Having downed a few drinks beforehand, the women immediately got excited when they heard this and
pestered Luna to give Christian a chance.

“Come on, Luna. He’s nineteen. What a fresh face! Why don’t you give it a try?“

“Yes, he’s handsome and tall and appears to have a great body too…“

“Young, handsome, and elegant. Isn’t he better than that good-for-nothing scumb*g, Joshua Lynch?”

”Is that so? ” As soon as Anne finished her sentence, a cold voice rang out from the garden entrance.

Everyone immediately glanced in the direction where the voice had come—
