Chapter 47 - Aiko Chen Is Below Me (2/2)

”I'll be meeting with my business partners around. You go and find your best friend in the crowd. I'm curious to see what kind of show Jasper Mo and Aiko Chen prepared for us,” Hero said as he adjusted his collar.

Luna nodded and didn't utter a word.

”Stay with your friend if you must. I don't trust Aiko Chen if you're left alone with her. Joanna will also attend so you may stay with her.”

At that, Luna clenched her hand tightly on her clutch bag. Her eyes shone with defiance and anger for Aiko Chen.

”I wouldn't let her step on me again,” she said decisively.

Hero chuckled at her words, pleased that his wife was starting to grow some backbone to defend herself. He leaned forward and placed a chaste kiss on her cheek before whispering on her ear.

”That's right. Show them what you got. Show them that my wife isn't easy to be bullied.”

Luna turned to face him with a straight face.

”Aiko Chen is below me. She isn't worthy of my time at all.”

She saw the smirk that spread on her husband's lips before he parted with her.

The elevator arrived at their floor, and the door opened.

”I'll see you later. Don't go around making a scene, Luna.” He threw a side glance at her, and she smiled faintly.

This party was hosted by the Mo family who had prestige in the business world so the majority of the guests invited would attend just to give the Mo family some face. This was also the reason why Hero Li came to attend even if he despised seeing Jasper Mo's face.

When the couple arrived at the hotel, it appeared that many people had already arrived at the party. Luna glanced at the direction where her husband went and saw him being flocked with older businessmen.

”Luna! There you are!” Someone called her name and turned to the direction where it came from and saw her sister-in-law striding towards her with a big smile.

”Joanna…” Luna lifted her lips into a small smile in response. ”Hero told me you'll be here.”

”Oh? He did? I was planning to surprise you, and yet he ruined my plan?” The woman pouted and then wrapped an arm on Luna's. ”Stay with me. My brother is such a demanding person, but it's a good thing you're here. I despise this kind of occasion. Just a bunch of people trying to show off.” She scoffed.
