Chapter 920: Please Respect Me
Luna was shocked as she looked at the man in front of her.
Had Orion actually known about her identity all along? He just didn’t show it?
The thought made her heart race.
She tried to suppress the flurry of thoughts in her mind.
If she wanted to stay here, to stay by Star’s side, she had to keep pretending.
Whether Orion knew or not, she had to keep up the facade.
Only then could she continue to take care of Star.
If that window paper barrier was torn down, she couldn’t continue like this with Orion.
For Star’s sake, she had to keep pretending.
“I am a married woman, I don’t like being tied down by marriage, and I especially don’t like men.”
She took big bites of her food.
Alf Hicks sighed, unable to resist a quip, “It seems there are only two types of people who can’t sleep in a bed, both are awkward.”
Luna was very stern, “Please don’t make jokes with me.”
Alf Hicks said, “I’m not joking.”
Suddenly, Star’s cries could be heard.
Luna didn’t hesitate at all, she immediately set down her chopsticks and rushed to Star’s side.
Star was awake, her skin pale, her eyes red from crying.
Tears still clung to the corners of her eyes.
Luna gently wiped away the tears with a tissue and lifted her up.
“Star, are you hungry?”
Luna placed the bottle she had prepared in front of Star, and once she started eating, she stopped crying.
“Star, your godfather has come to see you.”
Alf Hicks also walked in, playing with a small bell next to Star.
“Star seems to remember her godfather, godfather is very happy.”Content is © 2024 NôvelDrama.Org.
Even Luna didn’t expect Star to smile so widely when she saw Alf Hicks.
A lot of milk leaked out, and Luna followed behind to clean it up.
Star, full and content, was in high spirits, waving her hands on the carpet.
Excitedly kicking her legs.
Nobody knew what she was so happy about.
Alf Hicks teased her with a toy, and she reached out, trying to grab the toy.
Just then, Orion’s video call came in…
Alf Hicks, who had intended to leave, stopped in his tracks when he saw that it was Orion calling.
“Kelsey Silverton.”
Alf Hicks clucked his tongue.
Orion chose to ignore Alf Hicks and instead looked at Luna.
Rather than approaching the camera, Luna stayed to the side.
“Don’t worry, Mr. Russo, Star has taken two naps today, and I even took her to play in the garden.”
Orion understood.
It was clear that Luna was willing to say more, but not willing to see him.
He purposefully found something to say, “Kelsey Silverton, does Alf Hicks’s posture seem off to you? Star seems uncomfortable.”
“Alf Hicks, help hand over the phone to Kelsey Silverton for a hug.”
Alf Hicks, this man, truly prioritized love over friendship!
Using him as a tool just to pick up women?
“Hurry up, my time is limited.” Orion urged, shooting Alf Hicks a meaningful look.
Alf Hicks, “…”
Fine, he was just a living tool.
Tools have no life.
But he was a high-level tool with a life.
“Do whatever you want to me.”
He took the phone and handed it over.
With the camera pointed at Luna.
Star wanted to be held, her little mouth pouting as if she wanted to cry.
Perhaps it was because no one was playing with her.
Luna picked up Star.
Orion looked on at Luna and Star as if it was his due.
Alf Hicks, with a black face and holding the phone, was clearly impatient. He’d been turned into a phone stand, hadn’t he?
“Alf Hicks, point to your left, I can’t see my daughter.”
Following his instructions, Alf Hicks moved a little to the left.
“Alf Hicks, move a little to the right!”
Amid Orion’s complaints, Alf Hicks kept making adjustments.
Until he finally couldn’t take it anymore.
“Orion! I didn’t come here to be your phone stand!”
He thrust the phone into Kelsey Silverton’s hands and sat off to the side.
Aerated.
Luna repositioned the phone, and Star, looking at Orion on the screen, reached out her little hands.
Seeing her, Orion wished he could be home at that moment, so he could hold his Star tightly.
But the team’s progress was still a bit slow, and only today’s materials had made some progress.
“Star, just wait a little longer for Daddy to come back.”
“Mr. Russo, are you coming back?”
Luna was uneasy, she didn’t want Orion to return so soon. She was getting along well with Star like this, but the next moment she saw Orion shake his head.
“The time might have to be postponed a bit, but I will be back as soon as possible.”
So the comforting words just now were just to placate the child, she almost believed him.
Thank goodness he wasn’t coming back.
“By the way, why haven’t I seen Vivian?”
Luna suddenly remembered.
It seemed that she hadn’t seen Vivian since Alf Hicks arrived.
“I don’t know, she hasn’t come back since she left.”
Vivian was still on her way, with a roast goose sitting on the seat next to her.
She was rushing to Orion’s place.
But it didn’t take long for Orion to figure it out, Alf Hicks must have played a trick.
But it didn’t affect Luna, which was good.
After a moment of hesitation, Orion spoke, “I’m sorry for inconveniencing you by making you move rooms.”
Luna shook her head, she never felt inconvenienced.
Her child was here, she could live anywhere.
As long as there was a bed, that was enough.
“Not inconvenienced, it’s already good enough.”
Star soon started to make a fuss again, tugging at Luna’s clothes.
“Star, can Auntie perform magic for you?”
Her clothes were slightly undone from being tugged at by Star, but Luna remained unaware.
She picked up a cloth from the side and covered her hand with it.
“Star, hoo~”
Luna demonstrated for Star, and Star also blew air on Luna’s hand.
“Change!”
A little duck appeared on Luna’s hand, delighting Star to no end.
Luna handed the little duck to Star, who grabbed it and cooed.
With her pink lips, like cherries, saliva even dripped down.
The little duck honked as Star squeezed it, and she continued to be amused.
For Star, this might have been an amusing magic trick, but to Orion, the clumsy trick appeared childish.
“Miss Silverton, you’ve worked hard.”
Star’s attention successfully shifted, and Luna subconsciously looked at herself in the video.
Then she noticed that a button on her chest had come undone at some point.
Luna, “…”
Orion didn’t shy away, his gaze direct.
Luna quickly turned her back, holding Star with one hand and quickly buttoning up with the other.
She pursed her lips tightly.
He saw it, and he didn’t even remind her?
“Mr. Russo, please respect me.” She said with her back to the camera.
Orion asked, “How haven’t I respected you?”
