Chapter 226 - Luna Knows Bastian And Evelyn's Cunning
At four o'clock in the afternoon, Andrew and Nathalie just returned to the office after having a meeting with a client. Because before parting ways with Ethan for lunch, they were given the mandate to represent Ethan to meet clients.
"We should just go home, Drew. Why do you have to go back to the office again, it's already home time, right?" Nathalie chuckled annoyed that Andrew took her to the office again.
"I left my phone on the table, if I didn't take it, Alexa would have been confused because I didn't answer her calls," said Andrew.
Hearing Andrew's words, Nathalie chose to remain silent, because she was quite hurt by Andrew who instead chose Alexa as a lover.
Arriving at the office, Andrew immediately got out of Nathalie's car. He walked into Ethan's magnificent building, towards the elevator that would take him to his room which was on the twentieth floor. Meanwhile, Nathalie chose to just go home because she was tired.
Arriving at his study, Andrew took his smartphone that was left on the table. He checked the sophisticated object and saw that there were a lot of missed calls, from Luna, Ethan, and also Alexa. The most calling is Ethan's number, up to 20 times missed calls.
"Why did Ethan call so many times? Not usually."
Andrew sat on the edge of the table. Then he tried to call Ethan many times until it was connected.
"Hello, Tan. What's wrong with you calling me so many times? During the meeting, I left my phone behind."
"Sorry, the owner of this phone hasn't realized yet..he was injured and received a lot of stitches, he is not conscious at this time because he also lost a lot of blood," said the person on the phone.
Suddenly Andrew got up from his seat and looked panicked. "Oh my God, what's wrong with Ethan?"
"He almost lost his life, someone stabbed and strangled him in the car."
"Oh my God, who could do that? I'm going to the hospital right now. Send me the address!"
Andrew immediately hung up the phone and rushed out of the room into the elevator, pressing the button for the ground floor.
___
At the hospital, Ethan lay weak and naked chest because the doctor had to take off his top, to treat the stab wound caused by Edward. Five stab wounds were deep enough to require stitches.
Ethan was weak and pale from losing a lot of blood and was strangled, luckily someone immediately stopped Edward's brutal action.
"I'm so sorry for him, if I'm late, maybe he already ..." said the man in the green jacket.
"Have you conveyed the message?" asked another man standing to Ethan's right.
"Not yet. I've called many times and didn't pick up. And just now he called when I was about to say the message was turned off immediately." The man in the green jacket explained.
"Ouch, even though that seems like a very important mandate." the man on Ethan's right began to worry.
"The person named Andrew will be here soon, I have sent the address of this hospital. We'll just convey the message directly if he isn't conscious yet," said the man in the green jacket, looking at Ethan with pity.

feeling hungry and resting, Luna decided to go to the cafe for a while. At first, she wanted to be accompanied by Fito and Kevin, but remembering the gossip that Ethan said, made her reluctant to be near the two men in public other than for work.historical
Currently, Luna is enjoying spaghetti with a sauce that is not too spicy, because she doesn't like spicy. While busy eating, Luna's gaze fell on the figure who had just arrived.
"Bastian with Evelyn?"
Luna felt reluctant to be seen or approached by them and moved her seat with her back to them. Uh, right now they were very close at only about two meters.
'Hope they don't notice me, I'm so lazy when it comes to that Bitch. Why was Bastian with her anyways? didn't he say he didn't like her?'
Luna started to feel something was wrong, she looked down a little and tried to stay calm so that Bastian and Evelyn wouldn't notice her.
"Why is your face so bruised, Bas, who beat you?" Evelyn asked.
"Damn thugs, I paid them to annoy Luna and I came as a helper. It turns out that they beat me more seriously to this point," Bastian explained with a sour face.
"Hahaha, who told you to be a hero?" Evelyn chuckled.
"That's for the return of my love, especially now that he has separated from Ethan, my chances are getting bigger," Bastian said with a faint smile.
Luna stopped her eating activities when she heard Bastian's words with Evelyn. 'So, what happened last night was just a setting?' her mind was furious.
Luna tried to remain calm and felt compelled to hear the chatter of the sly people.
"Ah, it wasn't in vain that I sat haphazardly on Ethan's lap, the result was unexpected. They immediately separated." Evelyn was feeling triumphant.
"How is it warm in someone's husband's lap, hmmm?" Bastian seduces.
"More comfortable with you or someone else, he was very rude and immediately pushed me to the ground. Crazy isn't it?" Evelyn grumbled at the memory of herself falling on the floor and getting hit by a cake that made her clothes dirty. ah, she is a Bitch and maybe her body has been touched by many other men.
"Hahaha but I paid you quite a bit, so don't regret it." Bastian chuckled seeing Evelyn's annoyed face.
Luna shuddered and was furious to hear the chatter of the two crafty people. 'So, Ethan wasn't wrong and . . . and Evelyn had sex with Bastian and other men too? They are despicable, so disgusting!'
Luna was getting impatient and got up from the chair. She turned to look at Bastian who realized that she was right behind him.
"You guys So disgusting!" sneered Luna then took the orange juice on her table which was still intact and immediately threw it at Evelyn and Bastian.
Instantly Evelyn's eyes went wide as her clothes were wet because she didn't have time to avoid Luna. She immediately got up and stared at her clothes furiously.
"Luna... damn you!"
"Luna, I can explain." Bastian got up from his seat and grabbed Luna's hand.
Luna immediately waved her hand to get it off Bastian's grip. "What are you going to explain? Your cunning? I don't want to hear it! I hate to ever make you my lover. You're my worst past!" Luna glared at Bastian, who now could only remain silent because he had been caught badly.
Luna immediately left Bastian and Evelyn feeling annoyed and furious at being fooled. She returned to the car and immediately drove it in any direction.
Evelyn and Bastian just stayed in their annoyance, just happy because they managed to make Luna hate Ethan, even though they had been found out and at the same time it was known that there were many visitors to the cafe.

Andrew arrived at the hospital and immediately went down the corridor to the emergency room where Ethan was still in intensive care because of his severe injuries.
Arriving there, Andrew saw Ethan was awake and lying weakly with the two strangers who had helped him.
"Ethan."
Andrew approached Ethan and saw the many bandages around his shoulders.
"Have you met Luna?" Ethan whispered.
"Not yet, when you called I didn't know, because my phone was left behind," Andrew replied.
"Edward is free and he's hanging around after hurting me," Ethan said angrily.
"What? He's free, how come?" Andrew shook his head in disbelief.
"I don't know, for sure Luna and the kids are in danger right now." Ethan was very worried.
"He was very brutal and even injured you." Andrew looked at Ethan with pity.
Ethan closed his eyes for a moment as he felt his wound begin to shrivel up. "Hurry up and meet Luna, contact the bodyguards as well to hurry to Shandra's house to look after the twin. I'm sure Luna is still at the shooting location."
"Ah yes. I will call Luna now. you calm down, Edward won't dare to hurt her," said Andrew then immediately contacted Luna.
Until a few moments of contact, Andrew still not connected with Luna. He also contacted the bodyguards at the office to guard Keenan and Keyra, Ethan's house, tighten company security and find out where Luna is. Looks like he also needs to add a new bodyguard.
