Chapter 477: Edward & Moira 22

The scalding coffee spilled all over Luna's face, and she screamed in shock.

She never dreamed that the man she loved, Edward, would personally disfigure her.

She was really full of hatred!

"Why! Why! I love you so much, yet you hurt me like this!"

Edward stood up and helped the still-shocked Moira to her feet. He said word by word, "You dare to bully my lover, you must be tired of living!"

Luna's face turned red, and she hysterically shouted, "What makes her better than me? She has no family background, no talent, no looks, she's inferior to me in every way!"

Edward could clearly feel Moira's body trembling. His eyes were fierce, and his indifferent voice sounded, "But I just like her! Don't think that just because it involves Moira's father, this matter is over, and you won't get any lawsuits. Go back and tell your father, the Ellis Group is waiting for bankruptcy!"

Edward held Moira and walked towards the door, only Luna's piercing cries could be heard.

They got into the car, and Moira still hadn't recovered.

"Just now, did you avenge me?"

Edward couldn't help but laugh, "How could you doubt such an obvious thing? You're really stupid!"

Moira blinked, "Is this the legendary superpower of a domineering CEO?"

Looking at Moira's cute and silly appearance, Edward couldn't help but pinch her cheek, "Yes."

"I forgot to ask, how much did you pay to redeem that necklace?"

Edward clicked his tongue, "Three hundred and fifty thousand dollars."

"What?" Moira's eyes widened, "The interest increased by fifty thousand dollars in just a few days? That's too much!"

"Fool! That necklace is worth that much, isn't it normal for the interest to be a bit high? By the time you repay three hundred thousand dollars, it could be worth a million dollars."

Moira pursed her lips, "I'm sorry."

Edward looked at her guilty expression and wanted to laugh, "I've lost so much, have you thought about how to compensate me?"

Moira whispered, "I have no money."

Edward leaned in, his nose touching hers, "Then pay with your body, I like that."

Before Moira could say anything, Edward's lips covered hers.

Taking advantage of the moment when Moira was catching her breath, Edward asked in a hoarse voice, "Moira, what kind of hypnosis did you do to me? It makes me want to make love to you every day."

Moira blushed deeply, "This kind of thing needs moderation, you can't do it every day, otherwise, you'll have kidney deficiency."

This sentence was simply an insult to Edward. He squinted his eyes, "Don't you know if I have kidney deficiency? But if you think I do, then make me some tonic soup."

Moira felt like she had created trouble for herself.

Did Edward really need tonic soup?

If he really drank it, she might die in bed.

Suddenly, she thought of something and pulled away from Edward's embrace, "What about that underground casino?"

"Reported it. Should such a place continue to harm people?"

"What about the money they scammed from us?"

Edward felt that Moira's brain was finally working again. He smiled, "Naturally, it has returned to my hands."

Moira was a bit annoyed, "Then you made me feel like I owed you a lot, you're really bad! And you still want me to pay with my body!"

"Will you pay or not?"

"No!"

"Really?"

Moira looked at Edward in front of her, smiled, and leaned on his shoulder, "Edward, it's really good to have you."

"Then stay by my side obediently."

Moira thought, she was willing, just afraid that he would get tired of her someday.

She responded softly.

"I'll take you home to record a video first, then I'll go back to the company."

"Okay."

Edward took Moira home. Before getting out of the car, Moira kissed Edward on the lips.

"What do you want to eat tonight?"

"As long as you make it, I like it, but I want to make love to you first."

Moira snorted, "No way."

Edward rubbed her hair, "I have a dinner party tonight, don't wait for me to eat, just make me some ginger tea."

Moira nodded and got out of the car.

Watching Edward's car leave, she turned and went upstairs.

Edward returned to the company and went straight into the conference room for a meeting, it was a project in collaboration with Sunrise Group.

Edward leaned back in his chair, his fingers tapping lightly on the armrest, his gaze falling on Max, cold and contemptuous.

Max felt uneasy under his stare, very uncomfortable.

"Mr. York, do you have any other opinions?" asked the project director of Sunrise Group.

Edward tilted his head and chuckled, "I don't think this project needs to be collaborated on."

Max frowned, "Mr. York, what do you mean?"

Edward smiled, "I don't like your proposal, I don't want to collaborate."

Max was very angry, "Mr. York, you personally promised my father this project."

"If it weren't for your father, you wouldn't even have the chance to sit here and talk to me!"

Max didn't expect Edward to humiliate him, he got up angrily and left the conference room.

The people from Sunrise Group also left dejectedly.

Edward vetoed the proposal, and naturally, his subordinates couldn't oppose it, even though the project from Sunrise Group was very well done.

Max, having lost the collaboration, felt depressed. As soon as he got into the car, he received a call from his father, Peyton Santos.

Peyton scolded him harshly, "Did you offend Mr. York? How could I have such a useless son? You're a fool! You might as well give this position to your brother!"

What brother?

Just a half-brother born out of wedlock.

Max angrily said, "Who knows what kind of madness Edward is having!"

Peyton said, "The Ellis Group is under investigation, did you know that?"

Max, "Which Ellis Group?"

"Loshanda only has one Ellis Group! It's said that Luna offended Edward and got disfigured! Now that this project is no longer a collaboration, I'm naturally thinking if you also offended Edward! In Loshanda, there are two families you can't offend, the York family and the Howard family. Do you want our Santos Group to go bankrupt? Next Monday, you will step down from your position!"

Max didn't expect to lose his CEO position over such a small matter.

He hated that idiot Luna even more, and he hated Edward's ruthlessness, wanting to destroy him completely.

Fine, if Edward wanted to make him lose everything for Moira, then he would make Edward taste the feeling of loss too!

After the meeting, Edward received a call from his friend Gavin Aguilar.

"Edward, my sister is arriving tonight, can you pick her up for me? I have some issues here."

"Sure. What time is her flight?"

"I'll send you the time. Just take her directly to Red Rose Bistro! She has a dinner party tonight."

Edward, "Okay, I have a dinner party there tonight too."

After hanging up, Edward held two more video conferences.

Looking at the time, he pressed the intercom and called Vance to go to the airport.

The airport was bustling with people, and Edward, tall and handsome, was the most dazzling presence in the crowd.

At this moment, a woman in a red trench coat, wearing sunglasses and a mask, waved at him, "Edward, I'm here!"
