Chapter 1502

• Grant was a mess of nerves. His hands were clammy, and his heart pounded with anxiety. The situation had exploded online, and the backlash was growing worse by the hour. He kept imagining what might happen if those powerful families—Gu, Brook, Xue, and the rest—discovered the full truth: that he had barged into Bright Moon’s lounge, tried to intimidate her, and then lied, claiming she had tried to seduce him.
• How would those families react when they learned the truth? He couldn’t even bear to think about it.
• Panicked, he left the office in a hurry. He looked around until he found a quiet, secluded corner of the hallway. His hands shook as he pulled out his phone and quickly dialed Nuella’s number.
