Chapter 1061

Author: Inked Snow
Meanwhile, Luna and Gwen were hidden inside the room. They tilted their heads and eavesdropped on the conversation happening outside the door.

The color drained from Luna’s face as soon she heard what Joshua said.

As soon as she heard that Joshua had arrived, Luna guessed that Joshua had probably found out she was here and rushed over to talk to her.

Otherwise, he would not have arrived without giving Luke a heads-up, considering how close he and Luke were.

What he had just told Luke, however, was that the reason he came was that Luke had meddled with something that belonged to him.

Luna pressed her lips into a thin line.

It turned out that she was nothing more than an object to Joshua.

“What do you mean by this? What thing of yours did I touch?” Meanwhile, in the hallway outside the door, Luke gave Joshua an impassive glance and spoke, a cold smirk playing on his lips, “I can’t seem to remember what it is.”

“Is that so?” Joshua curled his lips into a sneer and fixated his cold

    “Why don’t you just say you’re sending them to jail?”Joshua let out a chuckle and replied impassively, “Well, that’s another way of putting it.“If the two children still haven’t realized their mistake and don’t think they’ve done anything wrong, then it’s about time they need to get treated as well. After all…”He raised his eyebrows. “They’re involved in breaking a mentally insane patient out of her treatment facility.” With that, he stood up and continued, “Luke, I know what you took from me, and I even know where it is, but if you don’t want to hand it over, then it’s okay. “I heard Dr. Robert say that if he doesn’t find his wife before this evening, he’s planning to sue Nigel and Nellie in court. Even though I’m their father, I’ve never been emotionally close to them, so I won’t get involved in this potential lawsuit at all.“If he indeed sues them, then it’s up to the legal system to determine their outcomes. Whether they go to prison or get sent into an education center,

    Seeing that Joshua was staring at her, Luna curled her lips into a feeble smile. “What’s wrong? Didn’t you want me to appear before you so that you can bring me back to the mental asylum?”The mental asylum: the place where she was locked in a windowless room and was subjected to inhumane tortures.Joshua paused for a moment, then asked in a hoarse voice, “What happened to you?”He knew that Luna was here, but he never imagined this was how she would look. He had seen her only a few days ago. At that time, she was full of life, with pink cheeks and clear eyes. This was a stark contrast to what she looked like as she stood before him: colorless and frail, as though she would break into pieces at any moment.Joshua thought that after being rescued by Luke and Gwen, Luna would be happy and carefree.While on his way here from Banyan City, he even thought to himself how selfish Luna was. He thought she was a self-centered, inconsiderate mother who did not care about her children.A

    Joshua stormed into the stairwell without any hesitation, with Luna still in his arms. “Let go of me…” Luna protested weakly.However, she was too tired and in so much pain that her struggles were futile.“I won’t.” Joshua zipped down the flights of stairs and, holding Luna tightly against his chest, said, “I’ve appointed three more teams of medical professionals to reassess your mental condition. You have to go home with me right now. If Dr. Robert’s diagnosis is wrong… I won’t forgive him for this!”Luna let out a bitter smile as she listened to the thumping of Joshua’s heart against his chest. “Three medical teams…”Her voice was so hoarse that it seemed even a simple sentence like this used up all the strength in her body. “So you still need to hire some doctors to determine if I’m mentally insane or not, don’t you? You don’t believe me after all…”Joshua’s entire body stiffened when he heard this. Was that true? Did he not believe her?All of a sudden, Joshua recalled wh

    As soon as he hung up, his phone rang with another call.It was from Granny Lynch.Joshua knew perfectly who it was that was calling him. He let out a sigh and picked up the phone.“Mr. Lynch,” Nigel’s cold voice rang out from the other end of the line. “I heard you went to Sea City. Have you found my Mommy?”Joshua’s eyes narrowed slightly. He had confiscated all of Nigel and Nellie’s devices last night and asked Granny Lynch to take them to the family villa at a rural village to lay low for the time being. The village did not have strong network coverage, so the residents could not frequently communicate with the outside world.Despite this, Nigel still found out that Joshua had gone to Sea City in search of Luna and even managed to find a way to contact him.Seeing that Joshua did not answer, Nigel pursed his lips slightly and said, “Mr. Lynch, I know the signal isn’t good here, but I’ve added a signal booster and got on the neighbors’ good sides so I can connect to their

    With that, Luna lifted her head to stare at Joshua and smiled. “Didn’t Dr. Robert say that if he doesn’t find Janice before tomorrow morning, he’ll sue Nigel and Nellie for kidnapping his wife? Nigel and Nellie are only six.”Joshua interjected curtly, “Even if Dr. Robert calls the cops, he won’t actually sue them in court. You don’t have to worry about that.”However, Luna shook her head. “People all over the internet are already talking about Nigel and Nellie now. Everyone thinks that they’re far more mature for their age and already devoted criminals at their age…”Joshua immediately furrowed his brows. “Who’s talking about this?”“Everyone is.” Luna let out a chuckle. “Ms. Fiona has been taking interviews non-stop and said that even though Nellie and Nigel are only six…they’re actually far more mature than even adults.” She curled her lips into a smirk. “Didn’t you know about this, Mr. Lynch?”Joshua’s expression darkened. He immediately took out his phone and pulled up the

    Joshua’s expression darkened almost immediately. He stared at Luna with a complicated expression and asked, “Do you think…I don’t deserve your trust?”“Yes.” Luna met his gaze fearlessly; coldness and determination were etched into her clear eyes. “I won’t trust anyone who refuses to listen to me and instead chooses to send me into a mental asylum.”Joshua felt as though his blood had run cold. Finally, after a long moment, he let out a bitter smile and replied, “Alright. I’ll do as you wish.”He tucked the sheets around her before saying, “I’ll get a doctor right now and see if they’ll discharge you… Then, we’ll go back to Banyan City.”With that, he turned and left.Luna laid down on her bed, watching him leave, and bit down on her lip. She knew that she should be hating and detesting him, but when she saw the disappointed look in his eyes when she said she did not trust him, as well as the loneliness in his footsteps as he walked away…She could not help feeling a little uncer

    “I can look after Luna. I think you should ride in the other car…”This time, however, Joshua did not reply.Lucas’ offer was met with deathly silence.Despite her eyes being closed, Luna could still feel Joshua’s gaze on her. She could help but feel a little flustered at being stared at like this. With her eyes still closed, she tried to convince herself not to believe what Joshua had said.How could Joshua be worried about her? If he was genuinely concerned, he would not have sent her into the mental asylum in the first place…Luna’s head grew heavier and heavier as she thought of this until she finally fell into a deep slumber.While she was asleep, she could still vaguely feel someone picking up her injured left hand.Joshua stared at Luna’s broken little finger with a penetrating yet somehow complicated stare. To some people, a broken little finger would not affect their daily lives much, but Luna was a designer. Joshua had witnessed countless times how Luna had used

    Luna curled her lips into a smirk as she stared at Joshua. “Alright.”She no longer had the energy to argue with him, so she decided to relent and instead smiled at him. “I believe you, but just this once. As soon as everything is settled, you’ll bring Nellie and Nigel back and allow me to take them away from Banyan City, right?”Joshua’s heart leaped into his chest. After a moment, however, he curled his lips into a smile and replied, “I will.”He had never wanted to convince Luna to stay. After all, he was the one who had caused the death of both Neil and the unborn baby in Luna’s womb. He had no right to ask her and the children to stay by his side.Therefore, even though he knew Luna did not truly trust him and was instead just saying it for his sake, Joshua was still willing to tell her the truth.Luna, on the other hand, was surprised by his answer. She thought that he would find an excuse to change the topic, but this was good, too.Luna’s expression darkened as she said,

"Forget about it.""Steven…" Gwen looked at him, and her tears fell.Her heart was not made of stone. How could she not know Steven's feelings toward her?She was silent for a long while.

    The next day, Rachel flew from Merchant City to Sharnwick City to diagnose Anne's condition. Theo tagged along as well because he had another identity, Rachel's boyfriend."According to the report, Anne's condition is slowly recuperating." Rachel was relieved after assessing the report. "Although she is very weak, she is going to get better with lots of rest."There is nothing wrong with her vocal cords too. It could be a psychological thing that makes her lose her voice. A knot in her heart that causes it." She looked at Luna, then at John. "Considering all factors, I think that knot is Luna."Rachel continued, "John, I know Luna is the root cause of all these bad things. Being away from Luna, Joshua, and other people is going to guarantee a safer life for you and your family. But have you thought about it from Anne's point of view? Other than you and Sammie, she has her own life and her circle of friends. Never has she blamed Luna for what happened, yet you forced her to leave Lun

    It was almost a miracle for Anne to willingly leave the house just to visit him!Robyn, meanwhile, sobbed at the sight.The nurse who accompanied Anne to the ward was puzzled. What was going on with these people?She snuck her phone out of her pocket and took a photo of this surreptitiously. Then, she sent it into the nurse's group chat with the caption, [What a strange family I met today.]The nurses in the group chat began gossiping about this. One of them tagged a fellow nurse named Daisy and said, [Hey, isn't this the guy who saved the old man you're looking after? What a hero!]Daisy was, at this moment, walking into Andy's room to help him change his wound dressing. She saw the message but was not able to type on her keyboard to respond, so she recorded a voice message instead. "Yes, that's the man. What's wrong with his family? What are you guys talking about?"As soon as she finished her sentence, she lifted her head and finally realized that Andy was not there.Instead,

    Anne stared at John for a long time before forcibly smiling and told him in sign language, "Robyn didn't return after so long, so I got worried and came by to check on her.""Daddy, Aunt Robyn, are you two hugging?" Sammie asked, blinking innocently as she raised her head in curiosity.John and Robyn turned pale at this.It was understandable for such a young child like Sammie to misinterpret them as hugging, but what would Anne think of this?John leaped off the bed and staggered toward Anne. "Anne, it's just a misunderstanding…"However, he was still so weak that his legs could not hold up the full weight of his body at all, and he almost crumpled to the ground.Quick-witted Robyn managed to catch him before he could fall, but this gesture appeared once again rather intimate to both Anne and Sammie. Sammie furrowed her brow and asked rather indignantly, "Are you hugging again? Daddy, how can you hug Aunt Robyn like this when you've never even hugged Mommy and me like this befor

    When the nurse pushed Anne to John's ward, she overheard John and Robyn fighting from the door. The fight was about how John was anxious to return home because he was worried about Anne and Sammie.However, as someone who used to work as a nurse, Robyn knew John should not leave the hospital after being shot by a gun. At least, he needed to stay in the hospital and be observed for 24 hours to make sure that he was fine before leaving the hospital. If an infection happened, John's body would crash easily and he would become weak just like Anne.In the ward, John frowned and talked with a serious tone, "I'm really fine. Get me my clothes so I can go upstairs to thank Miss Andie and go back home immediately. If Anne knows that I'm hurt, she is going to worry. She will easily be suspicious since you haven't gone back home for a long time. What if she worries about me and brings Sammie to the hospital to look for me? Can you bear yourself even just thinking about it? She's weak and Sammie

    Sammie's soft and cute babyish voice melted Stefan's heart immediately. It had been quite some time since he actually put a smile on his face. "Hi, there. What's your name and how old are you?"Sammie tilted her head to look at Stefan's handsome face and smiled sweetly, "I'm Samantha but everyone calls me Sammie."Then she did not forget to introduce Anne to Stefan too. "This is my Mommy. Her name is Anne."At this point, Stefan had given all of his attention to Sammie and did not notice Sammie mentioned that her mother's name was Anne. He pinched Sammie's cheek and said, "Your Mommy is not feeling well. You have to be a good girl and take care of her, do you understand?"Sammie nodded seriously and said, "I will.""Alright, sir. I will bring them to where they want to go," the nurse saw Anne signing to her anxiously. She smiled and said, "Don't worry. I will take good care of them."The promise from the nurse gave an assurance to Stefan that they would be well taken off. He smil

    This was the first time Anne brought Sammie out. Ever since she escaped from death, she became a different person—a recluse and was afraid of the sun. This situation became even worse after she became mute.The last time she left the house was two weeks ago when she had to go for surgery.However, she worried about John. In the morning, Robyn told her John was hurt and needed to stay in the hospital to rest. However, she had a hard time believing what Robyn said.After spending so many years together with John, Anne reckoned she was the one who knew John the most. If it was a minor injury, John would never want to stay in the hospital. He cared too much about her and Sammie, so he never dared to let her worry about him. Therefore, it just did not sound reasonable if John would stay in the hospital because of a small injury.Furthermore, Robyn had not returned home since the morning, which was nearly three hours since she left the house. After much consideration, she decided to call

    Tara fell silent upon hearing this. She bit her lip nervously and shot Gwen a tentative glance. "I didn't mean to offend you, Gwen…" "I know." Gwen let out an exhale and interrupted Tara before she could finish, "I know you meant no harm, but I can't deny that this is something I'm still having trouble wrapping my head around. In the future, neither of you—even you, Luna—should bring this up again." Her love life was such a mess that not even she could unravel the ties, much less expect other people to understand. Tara pursed her lips and did not reply. Luna stared at Gwen in silence for a while before finally saying, "But you have to face this eventually, Gwennie. After all that you've been through with Luke, all of us hope for nothing but the best for the two of you. Even if you avoid it now, you'll have to face the truth eventually. Otherwise, are you planning on spending the rest of your life in this complicated relationship with Luke? Can you bear the thought of not being

    Stefan was mildly amused by the look on her face. He extended his arms out in a gesture of defeat and said, "I never intended on ratting you out to Joshua. You three spoke about these secrets in my presence." With that, he shot Andy a rather helpless look. "Don't you agree, sir?" Andy was surprised to be called out all of a sudden. "Of course!" Although Gwen and Luke had been together for a long time, Luke had never much cared for maintaining good relations with his future father-in-law. He always thought his relationship with Gwen did not concern anyone else outside of the two of them. Combined with the fact that Andy had done some hurtful things to Gwen in the past, Luke grew even more disdainful of his future father-in-law. Because of this, he had never given Andy as much as a second glance throughout their relationship and rarely ever addressed him directly like this. The truth was, Stefan had already called out to Andy once before, during their rescue mission the day befor
