Nellie pursed her lips but did not reply. The three of them quickly entered Blue Bay Villa’s living room.Inside the living room, Neil was sitting in his wheelchair in silence. Meanwhile, Aura’s arm had been slashed with a knife and was bleeding profusely. At this moment, the doctor was wrapping her arm up.Joshua sat in the distance, his expression dark. No one could make out what he was thinking.The doctor soon finished wrapping up Aura’s wound. “Mr. Lynch, Ms. Gibson is fine now, but…”The doctor pushed his spectacles up on his nose bridge and continued, “Just now, when I did a checkup for Ms. Gibson, I discovered that her blood panel didn’t seem quite right, and it turns out she’s pregnant.“Therefore, I gave Ms. Gibson some medication that won’t harm the fetus, so you don’t have to worry about that.”This was the first thing Bonnie heard as soon as she stepped foot through the door. She furrowed her brows and shot Aura a stern look. “She’s pregnant?”The doctor nodded.
Aura let out a sigh. “This antidote is only enough to save one person.”With that, she lifted her head to glance at Joshua, then at the rest, who had turned pale as soon as they heard this. “The reason why I didn’t bring out the antidote earlier is that I haven’t decided whether this antidote would be used to save Luna or Granny Lynch…”The entire house fell into silence upon hearing this.Neil, who was sitting in his wheelchair, froze in shock. He turned to glance at Aura, then at Joshua. “This antidote can…save only one person?” Neil had always known that Aura had the antidote with her but did not know that…the antidote was only enough to cure one person. One was their well-respected Great-Granny and Daddy’s most important family member.The other was their beloved Mommy.The three children fell into silence as they mulled over this. Bonnie opened her mouth, then quickly snapped it shut. She, too, was unsure of what to say at this moment.Everyone’s gaze fell unanimously
Aura let out an exhale and said, “Actually, the antidote isn’t with me. I need my sister…my friend, to send it over.” She lowered her head to glance at the time and calculated before adding, “It’ll need about three days.”With that, she snaked her arm around Joshua’s and fixated her wide eyes on him. “Even though the antidote will only be here in three days, I have some medication that can help ease Granny’s symptoms. Should we bring it to the hospital for her?” Joshua went silent for a moment, then smiled and patted Aura on the head. “Sure.” This scene pained Bonnie and the three children. The four of them exchanged glances and seemed as though they wanted to say something, but they could not.After all, they could not reprimand Joshua and tell him that he should not save his grandmother, could they?After a long pause, Bonnie said in a husky voice, “Neil, let’s send you back to the hospital. Theo can’t find you, and he’s worried sick.” Neil shot Joshua a meaningful glance bu
As soon as she saw Michael’s frozen expression, Aura knew that something was wrong, but she tried not to show any emotion on her face. “Yes, I’m pregnant with Joshua’s child.”Michael’s expression darkened. “You…”“Michael!” Before he could finish his sentence, Celia, who was standing behind, smacked him and said, “What are you doing? Isn’t it just Joshua and his new girlfriend having a baby together? What’s there to be surprised about? Why did you throw the fruit basket on the floor?” She picked up the fruits scattered all over the floor and sneered, “This basket was prepared for your Granny Lynch. A few of them are spoiled from the drop, but it should be enough for an old lady who doesn’t even have much time left.”She continued in a scornful tone, “After all, we’re outsiders from the Lynch family, so we won’t get any of your fortunes. She should appreciate the fact that we even bought some stuff to visit her with our savings.”Joshua narrowed his eyes upon hearing this. He smi
“Are you sure you have never met her before?”Celia was so stunned by Joshua’s words that her knees almost gave out. She needed to lean herself against Michael’s body for support to help her stand up normally.“Michael, let’s go!” She pretended not to hear what Joshua had said and quickly left the scene with Michael’s help.Joshua could not help but curl his lips into a smirk as he watched them leave.Did they honestly think that they had covered up their tracks so successfully that no one would ever discover their wrongdoings?Despite this, Joshua knew that he had other more important things to deal with at the moment. After all, his mother had waited almost 30 years for the truth to be revealed, so it did not matter if she had to wait a little longer.As soon as Granny Lynch’s problem was dealt with…he would unleash his wrath once and for all. If that happened, none of them would be able to escape!…Inside the ICU.Because she did not receive any booster dose for the poison
Luna watched as Michael approached her step by step. Her face, which was covered by an oxygen mask, was etched with terror. Luna never thought that someone would still have bad intentions toward her, considering that to everyone else, she was a patient on the verge of dying.Luna started panicking. Although her condition was slightly better, her body was still weak. Not only was she experiencing weakness, but when she flailed around on the bed, all the tubes and wires attached to her started shaking and clinking.Michael grew even more excited when he saw how vehemently Luna struggled.He smirked as he approached her and said, “I never thought you’d still be awake. That’s even better: I don’t like sleeping with someone who doesn’t move, just like a dead fish. The more you struggle, the better!”He moved closer and grabbed hold of her chin with his burnt, scarred left hand.His eyes roved over her body lustfully. “Aura slept with me, so she’s my woman. Not only did Joshua have
“He’s my father’s son, and I am also my father’s son. Do you think we have nothing to do with each other, considering this relationship? We’re both from the Lynch family, but he got all the attention growing up. Granny Lynch brought him up and sent him to the best school with the best teacher’s care. Now, he owns hundreds of billions of dollars and assets from Lynch Group.“What about me? I have to survive on Granny Lynch’s charity. She could’ve given my father half of Lynch Group’s share and made our lives better. Instead, she thinks the three of us are nothing compared to Joshua!”With that, Michael stared at Luna with a crazed expression. “Do you think I shouldn’t hate him? I hate him so much that I want to mount his woman and make him live under the shadow of a cuckold!”He grabbed onto the zipper of Luna’s camisole and pulled it down.The sound of the zipper made Luna scream out loud, “No—!"She summoned all the strength within her and covered her bosom with both arms.Alas,
Luna froze upon hearing Michael’s words. She never thought that Michael would be this shameless.“Help me,” Luna feebly cried out, hoarsely, even. “Someone, help me….”She could hear Joshua’s and Aura’s footsteps pause in front of her door.“Hey, why is the door open?” Aura wondered out loud as she walked closer to the room and pulled the door open. “Isn’t Luna gravely ill? How could she have opened this door on her own?”With that, she glanced into the room.The first thing she saw when she looked inside the room was Luna, lying stark naked on her bed, as well as Michael, whose entire body was pressed on top of Luna’s.Aura paused for a moment before a glimmer of triumph flashed through her eyes. She let out a sigh and said, “Luna is resting. Maybe the nurse forgot to close this door when she left the room just now.”With that, she turned and shoved Joshua away from the room. “Joshua, I’m feeling a little unwell now. Maybe it’s because my body is having trouble adjusting to t
