When Luna knocked on the door and entered with hot tea, Joshua was sitting and talking on the phone.

Seeing her entering, Joshua swept a cold glance at her and continued reprimanding his staff, “How many years have you been on this job? Do I still need to teach you basic respect for your superiors? So what if you’re in a bad mood? Do I, as a boss, need to care for your emotions? If there’s a next time, you can prepare to resign! “
Luna smiled faintly as she heard his words. Joshua might seem like he was reprimanding his staff, but he was indirectly telling them to Luna.

When Joshua lost all mood to even read his emails, he decided to take a stroll in the backyard.
Blue Bay Villa’s backyard was huge. There was a man- made lake, artificial hills, and a cobblestone path. There were assorted pavilions and greenery as well.
