acting in such a manner. It was as if Simon no longer cared about his image. He usually could not even stand it if a tiny corner of his suit was wrinkled, but he was currently lying on the floor, and his shirt was
stained with red wine.
The secretary shook his head and picked up the bottles from the floor before dragging Simon to the couch. After that, he left.
Once Simon sobered up, he managed to pick himself up. He took a shower and left after he put on a new suit.
An hour later, he showed up in front of Luna’s house. She had just woken up, so when she heard the doorbell ring, she reluctantly went to the door and shouted, “Who is it?! Why are you bothering me so early in the morning?!”
However, the moment she opened the door, she saw a gaunt–looking Simon with a stubble on his chin. All of her drowsiness vanished. She was stunned for a few seconds before she threw herself into his arms in delight. But then, she started acting all sad.

In the past, Simon would immediately pity her the moment she started crying, but this time, he pushed her away coldly. He headed to the living room and sat down before extending his hand to her. “Give me your phone.”

“I’m giving you one chance to explain yourself.”
Luna had not figured out what had happened yet, but when she saw Simon’s stern gaze, unease filled her heart. She slowly looked at the screen, and when she saw the chat, she froze.
Back when she sent those messages, she had imagined Simon learning about them from Bertha. But when she noticed that Bertha just kept quiet and ignored her, Luna thought that she would never tell Simon anything. She had almost forgotten that she had done it too.
When Simon dug her chat up, she realized that she had underestimated Bertha. That quiet woman had actually shown him all of her chats and even her account information!
