Luna was completely in a daze upon Aura’s words. Then, she angrily glared at Aura. Her voice was rather croaky due to anger.“I hit your child? You were the one that hit my child! Aura, you will be punished for targeting such a young child!”Aura wiped her tears and stood up. She reprimanded Luna angrily too, “I should be the one saying this!”Aura took a deep breath, wiped her tears, and picked up the microphone. Her voice was filled with grief. “A few days ago, I handed Jake over to you in perfect shape, yet you returned him to me in such a state!”Aura bit her lips. Her tears fell. “Luna, only you would know what you have done! How dare you say I beat your children? You were the one that beat my child up! Your children are being protected properly in Blue Bay Villa every day. How could I beat them? My Jake, on the other hand…”Aura cried while displaying the photos in detail.“Jake only went to your place for a few days, yet he was beaten up so badly! Luna, you’re a mother you
Luna gritted her teeth and glared at the tear-stricken Aura.“What the hell do you want?”“Nothing much.”Aura held onto the microphone. She looked at the reporters below the stage. Her tone was rather aggrieved and sad. “I don’t hate Luna for beating my child up, but I hate Joshua for not protecting our child! I only want to do three things right now.”Aura took a deep breath.“First, Joshua has to find the best medical team to treat my son.“Second, to protect the safety of my son’s life, I want to be like Luna, I want to stay in Blue Bay Villa, to make sure that I can protect him at any time.“Third.”Aura narrowed her eyes and looked at Luna, who was sitting on the floor on the verge of breaking down.“Luna has to turn herself into the police, admitting that she tortured my child!”Joshua was hugging Luna. He swept Aura a cold gaze and said, “Are you sure?”Aura’s heart skipped a beat at that man’s deep gaze.If she remembered correctly, this was the first time Joshua
The reporters captured how arrogant and proud Aura looked.Luna was in Joshua’s arms. She had tried to rush over angrily a few times, but Joshua held her back. Luna tried to struggle, but she was wary of his injuries. She did not dare to struggle too hard.When Aura was done with being smug and arrogant, Joshua narrowed his eyes and looked at Aura coldly.“So, where is Jake? I can get the best doctors to treat him, but provided you hand him over to me.”Aura smiled. “I’ve already sent him back to Blue Bay Villa.” She smugly said to Joshua, “Look at your phone. You should have already received the news.” Joshua narrowed his eyes and looked at his phone. Lily did send him a message.[Neil is back, but he is badly hurt! Sir, I’ll go ahead and get the family doctor over! Please find a specialist too, I’m afraid the family doctor won’t be able to handle it!]Joshua’s gaze instantly turned cold. If the family doctor could not even handle it…That meant that Neil’s situation was mu
Joshua feebly leaned back in the back seat. His voice was so weak it was almost inaudible.He bit his lips and sighed heavily and said, “Call Dr. Rowena Shaw. Get her to send two of the best trauma physicians and an orthopedic doctor over to the house. Head home.”Jude furrowed his brows while driving. “Joshua, I think you should still go to the hospital. Your wound is so serious, getting the doctor to go to your house might…”“Go home.”Joshua shut his eyes and leaned back on the leather seats. His voice was low. “Neil has been tortured by Aura. He is currently in Blue Bay Villa already. I want to go home. I don’t want to go to the hospital. If I don’t see Neil, I’ll worry…”Luna, who had been pressing on his wounds, was stunned upon Joshua’s words. She lifted her head and looked at Joshua in shock. Her voice was hoarse. “You… care that much for Neil?”All this while, Luna never felt Joshua’s love for the children. It was only recently when Nigel and Nellie got closer to him, th
Neil was lying on the sofa, he was covered in bruises.His face was still red and swollen with a handprint on it. His left eye had a black eye, clearly punched by someone.There was not an inch on Neil’s body that was not covered in bruises. Every inch of his skin was either red or purple.A bunch of his hair was pulled off, exposing the white and red scalp.His right leg was limply hanging off the ground. It seemed that the bone of his calf had been fractured.Jude might be almost thirty years old, but this was the first time he has encountered someone in such a terrible state.Even though he was in a bad state, Neil, who was lying on the sofa, still smiled at the doctor who was disinfecting his wounds. “Thank you. You have been disinfecting my wounds for a long time. Do you want to rest for a while? It’s fine, I don’t feel that much pain anymore.”Looking at how strong Neil was being, the doctor wiped away tears while cleaning his wounds. “You’re a good kid. You will get bet
“You are my child! You are mine!”Neil pursed his lips. He reached out his bruised hand and hugged Luna. “Hmm. Mommy, I will be good and listen to you in the future. I’ll get along with Nigel and Nellie. I believe I can find back my memories.”Luna bit her lips and nodded. She wanted to say something when…Bang! Suddenly, the sound of a heavy object landing on the ground rang out.“Daddy!” What followed next was Nellie and Nigel’s agitated yells. Luna was stunned. She turned around.Joshua had already passed out on the ground. His face was a miserable place.Jude and Bonnie immediately helped him up. The doctors immediately tushed in. Some checked up on Neil and treated him, the others stitching Joshua’s wounds up.Luna rushed around helping them out.After a busy day, the Blue Bay Villa finally resumed its calmness during the evening.Neil’s fractured leg has been put in a cast. The doctor said that he is still young. If treated correctly, there should not be any big proble
Luna did not expect that Joshua would wake up at that particular moment. She paused, raised her eyes, and met his tired gaze. She bit her lip. “When did you wake up?” “Just a few moments ago.” He lifted himself up and Luna hurriedly helped him lean back on the headboard, then handed him the glass of warm water from the bedside table. “So you plan to ask Aura to move in with us, then make her believe that we’ve had a falling out so she has a chance?” At her words, Joshua laughed softly as he sipped from the glass. He lowered the glass, gently grazing his thumb over her lower lip as he said, “So you agree that we’re now as close as we used to be?”The rough pad of his thumb grazed lightly over her soft, sensitive lips, leaving her feeling slightly numb and itchy. She blushed immediately, then pulled his hand away. “When did I grow close to you again?” He laughed lightly as he looked at her, his gaze deep and bottomless. “If we aren’t close, how can we have a falling out?” Sh
Luna blushed at his words. She placed the bowl on the table, took the marriage certificates out of her pocket and stuffed them back into his hands. “The person named in the marriage certificate is Luna Gibson, and I’m Luna.” With that, she left, carrying the empty bowl in her hands.The room door was closed again. Joshua clutched the two marriage certificates, the smile hanging from the corners of his lips widening by the second.…The next day. 7 a.m., the doorbell to the Blue Bay Villa rang. Luna frowned as she stood in the kitchen preparing breakfast for Nigel and Nellie, and a lighter version for Joshua and Neil. She knew Aura was moving in today. But…this early?! She had not even prepared breakfast yet. Lily, who was cleaning, rushed to open the door. To Luna’s surprise, the door revealed to open not Aura, but…Granny Lynch. At that moment, Granny Lynch hobbled in slowly with the help of Adrian Lynch and Celia Giles. Luna could not help but bite her lip as she wa
