Luna's face, despite being moody, still looked beautiful to Hayden. The woman he had always liked. Although he was faster than Diego, he currently had the power to take Luna away from Diego.
"That pretty face shouldn't always be moody, right? What's wrong Luna? Is the young master of the Thaw group still bothering you?" Hayden's question took Luna by surprise.
Hayden then slowly promised, if he would be able to get Luna out of the Thaw group. The Giordano family's power was greater than Antonella's, so Luna immediately believed what Hayden promised her.
"The Giordano family isn't big enough, but to release you from the Thaw group, I think it's very easy. My father knows the Thaw family well. With a dinner or lunch, I will very easily ask him to forgive you. After all, it's been a few months, hasn't it? They must have gotten a bigger tender than that. You just relax, Luna," Hayden said sweetly.
"Is it that easy, Hayden? Can you do it for me? It's been a few months, this is really bothering me a lot. It's not just about the money, he even intends to sleep with me. Really, I can't possibly sleep with that fat guy!" Luna said.
Hayden smiled at Luna's words. Not because he was sure he could do it. But because Luna mentioned fat man, young master Thaw was not a fat man. It was a short and annoying man, paid by Hayden to scare Luna.
Hayden was there and saw what happened. Thaw couldn't have lost the tender just because Luna misplaced the folder he was carrying. Of course, they always anticipated this by carrying backup files. Times were also getting more sophisticated, files like that were very easy to photocopy back. But the threat from Thaw's group sent Luna into a tizzy.
Hayden used this to keep the pressure on Luna. He even paid Thaw a lot of money to keep the pressure on Luna, until he would later show up to be the Rising Hero for Luna.
Just by promising that to Luna, Hayden managed to draw Luna in and that made Diego very jealous. Upon seeing the young master of the Giordano group enter together with Luna, Selina felt that this was a good thing for her family.
The Giordano family was certainly one level higher than Antonella's. Knowing that the Antonella family's youngest granddaughter was gaining strength from Giordano, Selina turned gentle.
"Young master Giordano, thank you so much for coming to my humble party," Selina said softly.
"Of course, Mrs. Antonella. Happy birthday Selina Antonella. I brought a little gift for you. I hope you like it," Hayden said handing Selina a small parcel and it turned out to be a pearl necklace. Selina used it with great pleasure. She would definitely put Hayden first tonight.
"Oh yeah by the way Hayden, your company is building some things, can we work together? I've submitted a proposal, but no response yet. Can't we work together? We have the best building materials." Jacky interrupted and felt this was a good opportunity.
"Oh yes, of course. But I want someone to be the head of the project. Can I choose it myself, Mrs. Antonella? I want Luna to guide the project, wouldn't that be nice, Mrs. Antonella?" Hayden asked winking at Seline asking her to agree.
Seline saw that and immediately thought about it. She understood that Hayden seemed to be infatuated with his youngest granddaughter.
"Oh yes, of course. Luna, you will lead the project together with young master Hayden, you will work together!" Seline exclaimed, much to Diego's displeasure.
"No, I don't agree!" Diego exclaimed to everyone's surprise.
"Hey stinker, are you still here? Who needs approval from you? Hey, why doesn't anyone kick this guy out of here? He doesn't belong among Antonella's family!" Jacky shouted.
Jacky then ordered some of his men to drag Diego out. Seeing that, Eliza whispered something to Diego and told him to go home.
"Don't fight and go home Diego, maybe this is a good start for Luna. She's been appointed to hold a project, you know what Luna did to get that all this time? Don't mess it up, Diego, just go!" Eliza whispered with emphasis.
"But mom..."
"Go away!"
Diego couldn't argue and could only surrender as the executioners dragged him away. Seeing that, Hayden really felt very victorious.
It was getting cloudy outside, but Diego didn't make any move to leave. His wife was still inside with the person he hated most in his life. Hayden was his cousin, the person he thought had the most influence and the best chance of destroying his father. Yes, Hayden and his father had hated them both for a long time.
The big fence had been closed since Diego was kicked out. He wasn't allowed in. And that made him very angry. Hayden and Luna were seen talking on the balcony of the top. knowing Diego was still there, Hayden was really upset.
But then he had a plan to turn up the heat on Diego. It was no secret that Diego was just a husband on paper as Luna. He knew that Diego had never even touched Luna, even though they had been dating for a long time.
That's why, Hayden heated him up by holding Luna's waist. He was even very close to Luna, even their breathing seemed to be very close. Seeing that scene, Diego was furious.
"Hey let go of my wife!" Diego shouted from behind the fence and that got Luna's attention. She glanced at Diego and was surprised that he was still there.
"Diego!" Luna said.
"Oh Luna, leave that useless guy alone. How about we start discussing something?" Hayden said distracting Luna and holding Luna's chin. That made Luna turn her head. but Diego's shouting made her turn her head back.
"Hayden, let go of my wife!" Diego shouted.
Hearing that Luna then immediately left Hayden alone. Hayden became upset. When Luna left him, he went inside and met Mrs. Antonella, Seline seemed surprised to find that Hayden was no longer with Luna.
"Mrs. Antonella, it seems your grandson is very busy taking care of the smell. I'll just go home tonight. I'm not in the mood to talk business right now," Hayden excused himself with a bad face.
"What, but why?" asked Seline in surprise.
Hayden was in a very bad mood and he intended to leave Seline without giving her any explanation.
Seline then immediately looked for Luna and realized that Luna seemed to be in the middle of talking to the smelly guy by the fence. Seeing that Seline was really angry and approached her.
"You're still taking care of that stinky, Luna? Is he so important that you left young master Giordano? He went home because of you! We could have gotten a project. Your first project. Leave that smelly man alone forever Luna, what's the point of expecting him again?" said Seline.
"But..."
"There's no buts. If you do manage to get the project with the Giordano group, I will return all the funds to your family again. You and your mother no longer need to be in that cramped house especially with your poverty, you want that right? Iys, I'll do it. I'll return the financial intake to you again. If you can get that cooperation signature, I'll do it! And leave immediately, that stinker! Young master Giordano seems to be interested in you, he was quite jealous when you did this, get rid of him Luna!"
Immediately after saying that, Seline rushed in and left Luna and Diego outside. Luna could only remain silent and couldn't promise anything. Her heart couldn't deny that she still wanted to be with Diego.
But for the past 7 months, she had been trying to be alone, while Diego had never once been able to help her. Speaking of Diego, she was even too disgusted to get close to him.
Even though Luna knew that Diego went to business school, he was even born into a business family. but Luna was too fed up and disgusted to be close to Diego after what happened in her life. She blamed everything on Diego. Including the bad things that happened in her family.
"Luna..."
"Go away, I want to be alone."
Luna turned away from Diego and went to her car. The car Luna had owned for almost a couple years. It often crashed every time she left. Especially in the morning.
The rain seemed to be pounding the earth as Luna left the large yard of Antonella's family home. Diego was the only one there. Music could be heard coming from inside. Diego had no intention of going back inside. He started to walk away from the place.
Diego's steps were sluggish. His stomach was rumbling. Tiredness and disappointment haunted him. He didn't care about the rain pounding on his body. Diego saw a bus stop ahead of him and intended to cross and take shelter there.
Unfortunately for Diego, his eyes were blurred by the falling rain along with the teardrops, obscuring his vision. Suddenly, a sedan hit him at high speed, sending Diego's body flying.
