That night, when Nellie was at Lynch Mansion, she had drunk the poisoned tea that Celia had made for Granny Lynch…Joshua’s guess was correct.Granny Lynch let out an exhale and grabbed hold of Nellie’s hand. Then, she lifted her head to glance at Celia. “Even if I had to give the antidote to someone else, I’d never choose Michael.“Nellie, on the other hand, is already a talented jewelry designer at six years old. Her future is full of potential.”Granny Lynch let out a kindly smile, then lowered her head to gaze at Nellie’s tiny face. “How did the milk I gave you taste?”Nellie nodded earnestly. “It was delicious!”Everyone—apart from Nellie—was so stunned by this sudden turn of events that none of them could say a word.Celia gaped at the empty bottle that Nellie was clutching.If she remembered correctly, Granny Lynch had instructed Nellie to drink the milk only after she barged into the room with Neil as a hostage.Therefore, Nellie had drunk the milk right in front of he

Inside the hospital room.Luna bit down on her lip and stared at a white-haired Granny Lynch with a pained expression. “Granny…” she said in a hoarse voice. “Why did you…”Granny feigned nonchalance and reached out her hand to stroke Nellie’s head, then squeezed Neil’s hand reassuringly. “I’ve already told you; Celia was right. I don’t have much time left, so I’m glad that I get to do something good for my great-grandchildren.”Luna’s eyes were red-rimmed. “But Granny, Joshua and I went to so much trouble to obtain the antidote and cure you. You’re the only elder that Joshua respects, and you’re the only family member that not just him, but the children and I cherish…”She sniffed and continued in a choked voice, “Nellie is still young; she still has such a long way to go. I highly doubt that the poison within her body will never be able to get neutralized. We’ll eventually find a way to save her, but you…”Granny Lynch was more than 70 years old. When Luna first got in touch with

“Now…I can’t anymore.” She let out a bitter smile and stared at Joshua. “Having lived such a long life, I no longer have any regrets. The only person I’m worried about is you.“Your mother passed away when you were born, and your father never cared about you at all, so I was the one who raised you. I know how stubborn and how lonely you are…”With that, Granny Lynch glanced at the door. She could make out the four people through the matte glass.Neil was sitting in his wheelchair while Nigel stood behind him. On the other hand, Luna was crouching in front of Nellie, wiping the tears from her face.Granny Lynch stared at their vague silhouettes through the glass, a faint smile playing on her lips. “Luna is a good woman. I’m glad that you have her by your side, and I’m extremely touched that she’s willing to sacrifice so much for an old lady like me, but…”She lifted her head to gaze at Joshua. “I have two requests for you.”Joshua gripped her hand tightly and said, “Please tell me

When Joshua came out from the room, Luna had just finished consoling a crying Nellie.Even though she was just a child, Nellie fully understood the consequences of Granny Lynch’s action when she tricked her into drinking the antidote that would cure her disease.Nellie had stopped crying but was still sniffling. “Great-Granny… How much time does she have left? Will she get better if the doctors draw out my blood and give it to her?”Luna sighed and pulled Nellie into an embrace but said nothing in response.“Great-Granny won’t want your blood.” Joshua closed the door behind him, strode over to Nellie, and squatted in front of her. He looked straight into her eyes and continued, “Nellie, Great-Granny is willing to give the best to you because she wants you to be well. In that case, she won’t want to see you suffer, will she?”Joshua’s words made Nellie cry. The tears streamed out of her eyes and down her cheeks. “What will happen, Daddy? I don’t want Great-Granny to die…”Joshua s

Joshua, who was holding the phone, narrowed his eyes. It had already been ten minutes. He knew that it only took one minute to board the lift and arrive at Granny’s ward from the ground floor.Ten minutes had passed, yet Adrian had yet to arrive. This meant Adrian was not here to visit Granny Lynch at all.Joshua let out an exhale, walked into the lift, and asked, “Michael is here in the hospital too, right? Which level is he in?”“The twelfth floor.”…Inside the patient’s room on the 12th floor.Covered in seawater, Adrian took off his jacket and said, while wiping away the excess water on his body, “Don’t worry. Although she’s still unconscious, she’s alive. I hid her in a safe place. A doctor from a small clinic is with her. The doctor said she choked on a large amount of water, and it caused her to pass out. She could’ve died if we didn’t manage to save her so soon.”With that, he looked up and stared at Michael, who was lying on the bed. “Didn’t you say she’s pregnant wi

Joshua’s deep voice carried a twinge of arrogance. It made Adrian and Michael both shudder. Everything went silent for a moment inside the room.Adrian was the first to finally regain his composure. He forced out a smile and said, “You’re kidding, right, Joshua? No matter what, Celia is your aunt, my wife, and Michael’s mother… She didn’t do anything harmful, so why did you send her to the police station?”Joshua crossed his arms around his chest and swept his cold glance over Adrian’s wet clothes. “Where have you been?”Adrian let out an awkward smile. “I…I…I didn’t go anywhere.”Joshua did not reply and, instead, just stared at him coldly.Joshua’s aura was so strong and domineering that it seemed to suffocate the people around him.Adrian was so nervous that he started shaking. He followed Joshua’s gaze, which was locked on his clothes, and immediately replied, “Just now, I… Just now, I accidentally fell into a man-made lake.”Joshua curled his lips into a smirk and fixated h

Joshua shot Adrian a cold glare and said, “You have to come with me right now.”Adrian furrowed his brows upon hearing this. “Where to?”“Where else?” Joshua curled his lips into a sneer. “Granny has refused to take the antidote, and her condition is deteriorating. Your sister died many years ago, and you’re her only son now. Do you need me to teach you what you should be doing?”Adrian froze for a moment, then suddenly realized that Joshua wanted him to pay his respects to Granny Lynch before she passed. He narrowed his eyes and said, “Joshua, I understand what you’re trying to say, and it’s not like I’m refusing to pay my respects to Mother.”With that, he turned, plopped down on the sofa next to him, and gazed at Joshua with a triumphant look. “But you must have something to offer me in return for helping you, don’t you?”Joshua stared at him. “Are you asking something in return for paying respects to your own mother?”“Of course.” Adrian crossed his legs and said gleefully, “

Adrian never thought that Joshua would be able to uncover secrets that happened more than 20 years ago, even before he was born!Adrian immediately broke out in cold sweats. He stood up and said in a shaky voice, “Does this… Does this mean that if I visit Mother now, you won’t…track down the doctor who tried to save your mother?”Joshua glanced at him. “What do you think?”“I…” Adrian let out an exhale. “I think that as long as I visit Mother now, you’ll let all of this go!”With that, he circled past Joshua, hurried down the hallway, and disappeared from view. Joshua narrowed his eyes as he watched Adrian leave. He curled his lips into a smirk and tucked his phone away.Of course he would not let Adrian off the hook so quickly.No one—apart from Rianna herself—could forgive Adrian for what he had done. Alas, she had been dead for more than 20 years.The only reason Joshua did this was to soothe Granny’s worries about the rivalry between him and Adrian as much as possible befo

"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
