Michael’s words shifted the crowd’s attention back to Neil, and everyone began to murmur among themselves once more.Granny Lynch also frowned hard. Yes. She also believed that Joshua did not have an affair when he was married to Luna, but what about Jake?He looked exactly like Nigel.If Neil did not have the same father as Nigel and if his mother was not Luna’s biological sister, this would not have happened!No matter how Granny Lynch thought about it, she felt that unless Neil had been resurrected, she could not find another explanation to justify this child’s identity.However, Neil had been dead for months. He died in an explosion. How could he be resurrected? Even if he was, how would he have willingly stayed by Aura’s side, being with the enemy and accusing Joshua?Even when she hugged him a moment ago, she could clearly feel the difference between him and Neil.Granny Lynch was confused. She lifted her head, furrowed her brows, and looked at Joshua.“Joshua, this child
It would be unhelpful to the situation. It would only make Neil feel that she was pretentious.Luna could only sit and watch the disappointment in Neil’s eyes grow.She felt as if someone stabbed her heart.“Joshua, you’re saying that this child isn’t yours?”Granny Lynch furrowed her brows and looked at the child called Jake Landry once again. Was he really not related to the Lynch family?“Yes, I’m sure,” Joshua calmly answered Granny Lynch’s question. “If you want me to admit that this child is mine, he has to stay with me. I’ll bring him to a few respectable DNA Diagnostic Centers.“Only when I have solid proof will I admit that perhaps I was truly drunk and made a mistake one night back then. If not, those who claimed that I had an affair yet could not produce any proof will be sued for defamation,” Joshua enunciated every single word resoundingly.The crowd gradually turned quiet.Granny Lynch was stunned. She subconsciously looked at Aura.“What do you say?”Aura narro
Neil nodded his head upon Aura’s words. Since his mother had said so, that meant that for the next three days, Uncle Theo would be fine.Upon receiving his reply, Aura slightly squinted her eyes and pushed Neil to Nigel and Nellie.The three of them finally met each other face to face.Nigel narrowed his eyes and looked at Neil, not moving.Nellie, on the other hand, slowly reached her hand out and passionately held Neil’s hand.“Hello, Jake! Nice to meet you!”Nellie heard how Neil corrected Great-Granny Lynch when she hugged him a moment ago, so Nellie obediently called him Jake instead.Actually, before that day, her Mommy had already told Nigel and her. They knew that Neil was different than before, unable to remember things in the past nor remember who they were to him.Therefore, although Nellie was a little resentful at Neil for saying the things he said a moment ago, she was still willing to accept him.Nigel was a different case. From the beginning, Nigel had been sta
An emotionally-driven child before losing his memory would still be equally emotionally-driven after losing his memory.As long as Neil believed that Aura was his biological mother, he would never treat Luna well!At that thought, Aura sneered.Did Joshua think that if he had Neil by his side, they would be able to work hard on their own and help Neil correct his mindset, regaining his memory?Dream on!Once Neil recognized her as his mother, he would always do her bidding!Joshua, on the stage, obviously saw the scene where Neil rejected Luna. He sighed, turned around, and looked at Adrian and Michael below the stage.“Adrian, Michael, you said that I had an affair. Besides the unidentified child, Jake Landry, do you have any other proof?”Michael paused for a while before he bit his lip. Besides Jake, he had no other proof of Joshua having an affair.Looking at how Adrian and Michael were stumped, Joshua smiled and gracefully looked at the crowd.“Since no one could produce
Luna’s hand was just about to grab the handles of Joshua’s wheelchair when she stopped a little.After a moment, she immediately caught up to Joshua and grabbed the handles to his wheelchair, pushing him out.“Joshua, I know you’re angry at me for going rogue at the last minute, admitting that I am engaged to Michael, but…”Luna sniffled and bit her lips. “I had no choice. The box that Aura gave me. Inside—”Joshua looked ahead as he calmly interrupted Luna, “Inside the box had something to do with Theo and Neil. The letter she wrote was threatening you. She said that if you don’t do according to what she said, she’d hurt Theo and Neil.’”Joshua smiled. He sounded rather self-deprecating. “Am I right?”Luna was completely stunned. After a while, she bit her lip. “How did you know…?”“I made a guess.”“Since you already knew, why did you—”“Luna.”Joshua took a deep breath. He stopped in his tracks and elegantly turned his wheelchair around.He lifted his gaze and looked at L
“You said that you were busy at work, but I saw with my own eyes how you were socializing with others. Women putting their arms on your shoulders, but I still trusted you, pretended I didn't see it. Why did I stop trusting you, then?”Luna looked at him and enunciated, “You crushed the trust I placed in you back then. The incident six years ago, until now, I’m still unsure whether you colluded with Aura to harm me, or if it was only one of you that planned it.“You’re good to me and my children now, and I’m aware of that. I am also very grateful, but this can’t wipe away the harm you brought me in the past. Please don’t blame me for not trusting you. Ever since the accident six years ago, I only trust myself.”Then, Luna took a deep breath, turned around, and strode away.In the empty and cold venue, Joshua was in his wheelchair, quietly looking at Luna leaving. His gaze gradually turned cold.…Blue Bay Villa.“Jake, this is your bed!”The moment they reached home, Nellie imme
Under the moonlight, Nellie slept soundly in her princess bed.Neil stood at her bedside, gripping his knife tightly as he studied her face.In the distance, Nigel lay in bed. He also had a small crossbow held tightly in his hands.Unlike Nellie, Nigel was not willing to naively believe that Neil was still Neil. Despite having lost his memories, Neil was a stranger until he would regain them. One can never be too defensive of strangers.The atmosphere in the children’s room was stifling. Tension and hostility filled the air.After a while, Neil let out a sigh and kept his knife. He reached his small hand out and gently traced Nellie’s face. Although he hated the Lynch family, he could not find it in his heart to hate this naive and affectionate little girl, nor could he be cruel to her.After a long while, Neil took a deep breath, walked out of Nellie’s tent, and threw the knife into the bin.After that, he turned around and carefully returned to his top bunk bed.Nigel, in the
Anne and Bonnie had even made a bet that Luna’s and Joshua’s fake relationship would turn real and they would end up happily together.However, no one expected that such changes would happen that night. Neil suddenly turned out to be Aura’s and Joshua’s children.The man of the hour during the engagement ceremony had changed to another person, too.Both of them accompanied Luna the entire night. Luna was still in the bar even as morning came, at 10 a.m., when she came around.Anne and Bonnie were drunk as a skunk, sleeping soundly. Luna yawned and got up to head out, planning to head out and buy some breakfast for them before waking them up.When she pushed the door of the bar open, she realized that it was raining heavily outside. The skies had changed their colors due to the heavy rain.She furrowed her brows. Just as she was hesitating whether she should risk going out in such a heavy rain just for food, her phone rang. It was from Nellie.Luna immediately picked her phone up
