However, Zenith would never reveal the truth since he was being flattered and admired by theCrestfalls. He could use this chance to win Luna’s heart.
Zenith was over the moon. He waved his hands and said casually, “It’s nothing. Don’t mention. it. Withmy father’s word, Timothy Kerr won’t have the nerve to do anything. This is what he got for accusingLuna.
Following his words, the others echoed in agreement.
“You’re right!”
“The Mangolds are awesome!”
“It’s in the bag!”
“Young Master Mangold!”
The family surrounded him as if they were planets and he was the sun, except for Dick and Colin. Thetwo of them did not expect the sudden turn of events.
Timothy had succumbed to pressure and exposed the two of them.
Disaster was upon them. They were sweating profusely. Sweat as big as peas trickled down theircheeks and fell from their chins.
“Dick, Colin!” Harry roared, “It’s you! You two leaked the prescription to Timothy Kerr and HydraPharmaceuticals!”
He glared at the two of them coldly and emotionlessly. “With the prescription, our company alreadysigned an agreement with the Medical Society to mass produce the medicine. In time, it woulddefinitely have grown bigger and stronger.
“But you two! You two idiots! What you two did almost cost us everything! Luna almost got arrested!You two are the leeches of the family, a sickness that poisons us all!”
Following his criticism, the others joined him in berating Dick and Colin.
“Dick, Colin, how could you two turn on us?! How could you two think of such a vile way to accuseLuna?! Despicable!”
“Dick, Colin, where is your conscience?!”
“You two will suffer the consequences!”
The father and son duo stammered in silence while their family berated them. They were unable tocome up with anything to argue back. Then, they clenched their teeth and decided to ask for Luna’sforgiveness.
“Luna…”
“Uncle Dick.”
Before Dick could say a word, Luna stopped him. With an emotionless face, she questioned him, “Inever did anything to hurt either of you, so why did you accuse me?”
“I… I…” Dick stammered and failed to form a complete sentence.
“What is it?!” Harry bellowed. “We will go see Father right now!”
He then dragged his brother and his nephew into the car and headed to the Crestfalls‘ mansion.
The family arrived at the Crestfalls‘ estate and informed Belarus about what happened.
With the whole family there, in addition to Zenith, the young master from the Mangolds, Dick and Colindared not resist or argue.
“What?!” Belarus was furious when he learned what happened. He looked at his son and his grandsonkneeling before him. His aged face was filled with disbelief and anger.
“Dick, you are a Crestfall. You were born and raised here. Luna is your niece! Yet you… Why did. youdo that to her?”
Belarus used to serve in the army when he was younger. Despite his age, when he got angry, the auraof a soldier erupted and his white brows were raised.
Dick was silenced, and his head was lowered.
“From today onwards…” Belarus glanced at them coldly, his heart bleeding, but he must announce thepainful decision, “Dick Crestfall and Colin Crestfall are to be relieved of their duties at New MoonCorporation. And… their assets are all confiscated. They are to move back to the old house in the olddistrict. Now, leave.”

Now, they had lost everything. Colin dared not picture their future anymore.
“Just wait.” Dick turned around and looked at the estate viciously. His eyes narrowed. “I will make Lunapay for what she did to us.”
Colin clenched his fists tightly and muttered viciously, “Luna, it’s either you or me. There is no in–between.”
