Chapter 22 Who Is This?-1
“Alright, let’s see what you can dig up!” Timothy grabbed the file and Hipped it open, totally missing Lunas worried look.
Inside was just a simple bank statement. The account had been getting fifty grand a year for eight years, then nothing, but the money was recently withdrawn. There was also a close–up photo of ina with a young woman.
The young woman was stunning, with bright eyes and a sweet smile, and she looked a bit like Luna,
Timothy turned to Luna, “Who is this?”
Luna freaked out, not expecting Zoey to have this photo. I… I dont now who this is. Zoey, did you Photoshop this? Just because you’re jealous that I got more love from our parents, you can’t do this.”
“Why would I Photoshop it?” Zoey snapped, “You reunited with your aunt, which is great, so why are you hiding it?”
Before Luna could respond, Zoey smirked. “Should I spill the beans? Because your aunt is the one who told you to bribe the butler and take the money meant for my upbringing.”
Luna tried to stay calm, “Mom and Dad treat me well, they never lingit my spending, I don’t need to do this for fifty grand.”
“You might not need it, but your aunt does.” Zoey raised her chin, signaling Timothy and Hazel to check out the info, which Included details about Luna’s aunt.
This woman had some bad habits and spent money like crazy. Even though Timothy and Hazel loved Luna, they wouldn’t give her unlimited cash, so the pocket money Luna could give her aunt was limited.
Timothy stared at the info, his face unreadable.
Luna knew things were going south and dropped to her knees, Dad, Mom, I messed up. I shouldn’t have kept it from you, but I was pressured into it!”
Hazel couldn’t stand to see her kneel and reached out to help.
Luna refused to get up, “I was so happy when I found my aunt, I wanted to tell you right away, but she said if I did, you wouldn’t want me anymore. I couldn’t bear to leave you, so I didn’t dare to say it. Later, she said she was sick and needed money for medicine, so I gave her half of my pocket money”
Hazel was both angry and touched, “You silly child!”
Timothy’s expression softened a bit, “You don’t trust us that much?ven though you’re not my blood, I’ve always treated you like my own daughter.”
“Dad, Mom…” Luna was in tears, throwing herself into Hazel’s arms, Her voice choked with sobs. Iwas just scared! I didn’t dare to say it, it’s all my fault, I should have trusted you, I didn’t take Zoey’s money, I just found out today, it must be my aunt. She even lied about her illness, she must have bribed the butler in my name.”
Timothy said angrily, “Your aunt really has had intentions!”
“Alright, no matter what, she’s still Luna’s relative.” Hazel hugged Luna, “It’s okay, we don’t blame you.”
“Dad, Mom, J love you so much.” Luna sobbed in their arms, and Tinkhy and Hazel comforted her.

“Dad, don’t be mad, I’ll go apologize to Zoey and bring her back!” Lala said, turning and rushing out. A sly smile crept onto her lips as she disappeared from Timothy and Hazel’s view. This time, she led to make sure Zoey stayed gone. Luna had to be the sole heir to the King Family’s fortune.
As Luna looked up, she saw a handsome man standing by the car. He thoughts raced, and she immediately put on a pitiful look. “Zoey, don’t go, Mom and Dad don’t want you to leave! It’s all a misunderstanding. I’m not trying to step on your toes. You’ll always be Mom and Dad’s only daughter. If you don’t want ine around, I’ll sledaddle.“
She ran breathlessly to Zoey, seemingly exhausted, and fell to the ground. A business card accidentally slipped out of her pocket.
Zoey frowned at her, “Stop acting, or I’ll beat you up.”
Thinking of Zoey’s terrifying strength, Laina hesitated for a moment then stood up firmly. “As long as you come home and don’t make Mom and Dad sad, you can treat me however you want.”
Henry stared at the business card on the ground, his gaze slowly moving to Luna’s face, his expression instantly darkening. It was like a bucket of cold water had been poured over him. The joy of finding his beloved instantly froze.
“Is this yours?” he asked.
Luna pretended to be surprised and sighed lightly, looking down at the business card, then hurriedly picked it up, a shy blush appearing on her face. “Yes, it’s mine.”
Henry glanced at Zoey, not wanting to discuss this in front of her, and said to Luna, “Come with me.”
They walked to a nearby flower bed, and he stared at the business card in Luna’s hand. “Royal Club?”
Luna was stunned, “How do you know about the Royal Club.
“Seven days ago?”
Seven
Luna was even more confused, but soon seemed to realize something, a shy blush appearing on her face, “Yes, I did go there then…”
“Hey, are you coming or not?” Zoey’s voice rang out.
“Coming! You go back first. The last sentence was directed at Luna Henry turned and left.
Luna stared dumbfounded at his back, biting her lip in anger. Why didn’t he take responsibility?
Damn Zoey, she could climb the social ladder herself but couldn’t stand to see her do we
well.
But it didn’t matter. She had already planted a seed in Henry’s heart, there would be opportunities in the future.
On the way hack, Zoey noticed Henry seemed distracted. Thinking of his mysterious conversation with Luna, she narrowed her eyes, “You didn’t fall for Laina, did you?”
“How could I?” Henry instantly gripped the steering wheel tightly. Just thinking of that pretentious woman made him feel nauseous.
The wonderful memory of that night was still unforgettable. But if he put Luna’s face on that blurry figure, Henry closed his eyes in despair, Better it be Zoey than Luna!
But in Zoey’s eyes, this reaction was just a reluctant admission after being moved, “I have to say.”

Henry looked at her. Zoey said “You have terrible taste.”
Henry remained silent.
Back at the Phillips Family, Zory went straight to her room to pack her things. It wasn’t until eight in the evening that she remembered her chess game with Henry and decided to find him.
Unexpectedly, his door wasn’t locked and opened with a push. Zoey oked up and saw an extremely seductive scene.
Fresh from the shower, Henry emerged from the bathroom, a towel recariously wrapped around his waist, looking like it could fall off at any moment. Water droplets dripped from his hair onto his chest, sliding down his muscles, and finally disappearing into the white towel.
