Remarried After I Secretly Divorced the CEO novel Chapter 186

That was when Luna finally spoke. “Mr. Sinclair, you shouldn’t believe every bit of gossip you hear. After all, business partnerships are about capability, aren’t they?”

That “gossip” was clearly aimed at Autumn.

In Luna’s mind, Autumn loved nothing more than spreading negativity about them.

It didn’t affect her position, her own ability spoke for itself, but it was still a petty, underhanded move.

Going quiet and then slipping in a jab in front of others?

Classic backstabber behavior.

Then again, it wasn’t surprising.

Autumn didn’t have much else to work with, so she tried to tear others down instead.

A knife in the back was pathetic.

Keith’s fingers paused mid-tap on the table.

He lifted his gaze to Luna, his expression deceptively calm, but the weight of authority behind it was unmistakable.

“Miss Lewis, are you questioning my judgment?”

Under the pressure of his stare and the weight of his question, Luna froze for a moment.

But she quickly regained her composure.

“Mr. Sinclair, you’ve misunderstood. I’m not questioning you. I simply think we should stick to the matter at hand instead of blurring the lines between personal and professional.

“Acting on hearsay—that’s not really your style, is it?”

She knew perfectly well Keith was defending Autumn, but there was no way she would let him stir the pot against her in front of her brothers.

Everything she had now had been hard-won, and she wasn’t about to let them destroy it so easily.

Still, she had to admit Autumn’s game had leveled up.

If she could latch onto someone like Keith , then Luna had clearly underestimated her.
