No objections!“Nellie, do you want some cake?” Nellie was sitting in Adrian’s lap. She shook her head at his offer, her gaze fixated on Luna’s retreating figure. “I’m not in a good mood. I don’t want anything…”Oceans apart, Nigel was watching all of this unfold through a surveillance camera. Upon seeing this, he closed his eyes. Then, after a moment, he reached out a hand to touch the image of Luna on the screen. “Mommy, I’m sorry…” If it were not for Nigel’s disease, his mother would not have had to return to Banyan City and get in touch with Joshua. If it were not for Nigel, she would not have gotten hurt by that scumbag all over again. …At the back door of the hotel.With his grip still around her, Joshua dragged Aura all the way to the hotel’s back exit.“Joshua!” Aura exclaimed. Her wrist was starting to hurt, and they had left the scene rather briskly. Aura felt like she had reached her limits. Joshua finally let go of her. Aura leaned against the door, massaging

“Luna, you’re drunk.” Seated in the corner of a bar, Malcolm glanced at Luna, who was downing yet another pint of beer. “You should stop drinking now.”Luna pretended like she did n\ot hear him and reached out to grab another glass. “Stop drinking!” Malcolm couldn’t take it anymore and finally extended his arm to snatch the glass away from her. “You know full well that you can’t hold your liquor, so why are you pushing yourself like this?”Luna gave him a blank stare and let out a chuckle. “Malcolm, it hurts.” She drunkenly pointed towards her chest. “It hurts here. I’m so stupid. I thought that he would be different. I thought that people prioritize family over anything else, but…”She wiped the tears from her face before continuing. “Am I too naive? I know that he hates me, but I never thought he would hate his own daughter too… after seeing the way he cared for Nellie when she almost got killed, I thought… I thought that his children meant something to him, but I was wrong, Mal

“I’m sure Nellie is devastated by this…”Nellie had narrowly escaped death multiple times. Although she was a mentally strong girl, having encountered hardships and difficulties since she was young, it was still a very emotionally overwhelming event for a young child to witness her father showing mercy towards the woman who had almost killed her. It was unforgivable!“It’s already late now,” Nigel said, letting out a sigh. “I’ll try to comfort her tomorrow after she wakes up.”Neil nodded. “Okay.”Neil was the one who sent Nellie back to be with Joshua. He had done that so that Luna would have a reason to reach out to Joshua and so that there would be someone helping her from the inside. However, the situation now spun totally out of his control. Neil was a bright boy, but even he was at a loss now.Neil sighed and lowered his head to glance at Luna on the floor below him. She was utterly wasted now at this point. There was a hotel on the floor above the bar. Malcolm was trying

The cool night breeze drifted through the air.Joshua curled his lips into a smirk and gave Luna an icy glance. “Why do you hate me?”“I hate you…” Luna let out a dry laugh and looked up at him. “I hate you because you don’t give a sh*t about me, and you don’t give a sh*t about Nellie either!”Joshua took out a pack of cigarettes from his pocket and lit one. “What do you mean, I don’t give a sh*t about Nellie?”Luna froze. “If you care about her… then why aren’t you punishing Aura?” Luna pursed her lips and struggled to form her next sentence. She was feeling dizzy from the alcohol and stumbled in Joshua’s direction until she eventually slumped against him. “Just be honest… you don’t care at all… you don’t care about Nellie, and you don’t care about me either.”Joshua did not feel like entertaining her at first, but now that Luna had slumped against him, he had no choice but to put his arms around her and prop her up.“Don’t touch me…” Luna slurred, her whole body weak. “You love

Nellie woke up in the middle of the night and went downstairs to drink water, overhearing the conversation between Lucas and their servant.“Sir’s situation is more urgent. The woman is dead drunk.”Alarm bells started ringing the little girl’s head.Woman, dead drunk?She bit her lip and approached them furiously, raised her head and looked at him. “Lucas, what woman are you talking about? What happened to my Daddy?”Lucas jumped up in shock. “Little princess.”“I’m asking you what woman, what do you mean dead drunk?”Lucas sighed helplessly, he had no choice but to tell the truth. “It’s Luna. She’s drunk and Sir brought her into his bedroom.”The little girl paused.After a moment, she finally bit her lip and said, “Then… quickly prepare a drink for her hangover.”Then as if she remembered something important, she looked at Lucas innocently. “I heard people become more honest when they’re drunk? Is it true?”Lucas was surprised. “Little princess, who taught you that?”“

Nellie did not expect her father would agree so easily, she remained in a daze for a while before coming to, walking into his room with her short little legs.The little girl sat on the small platform before his bay window, glancing at Luna who was still dead drunk on the bed, her worry and concern evident in her eyes. “Daddy, why is Aunty in your room?”Joshua's eyes darkened. “She’s drunk.”“Oh.” Nellie pursed her lips. “Aunty must be so sad tonight.”He lifted his glass and filled it to the brim. “Would she be?”“Of course.” Sitting on the platform, her short legs swung to and fro in the air. “Aunty said she thinks Aunt Aura isn’t nice to me, she wants to sort out the problem about Aunt Aura before she leaves, otherwise, she would be worried.”With that, the little girl glanced at her father, her expression fully expressing her grievance. “But what about you, Daddy? You let the evil Aunt Aura go just like that. Aunty is worried about me, plus, she feels you do not care about m

But if Joshua pursued Luna, things would be different. Even if Mommy still refused to expose her true identity, the two of them would have a chance to hit it off! With this thought, the little girl reached out her hand carefully and tugged at her father’s sleeve again. “Daddy, just try. I can help you!”Joshua smiled helplessly, shaking his head. “No.”“Why not!”Nellie bit her lip, glaring at him unhappily, “Are you worried you’ll forget you’re just acting and really fall in love with Aunty? So, your love for Mommy is so weak after all! Then I won’t help you persuade Mommy to come back! You yourself don’t believe that you’ll always love her, why would she come back! You’re not even willing to put on an act with Aunty, you don’t really love Mommy after all! You don’t really want me to reunite with her!”Joshua was quiet. “…”Facing the unreasonable little girl, suddenly, he was at a loss of how to react.He sighed, pouring himself another glass and emptied it. “I’ll consider it.”

At that, he looked at Gwen. "Actually…"Steven found himself unable to finish his sentence. After a long while, he shook his head and smiled. "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. In the end, she stood up and slowly walked over to Steven with arms opened wide. "Give me a hug."Steven hesitated for a while, but he still stood up.They hugged."Gwen." Steven hugged her thin figure. "I have to meet you earlier in the next life so I can compete fairly with my brother."Gwen nodded with tears streaming down her face. "Okay."They thus hugged once more. Minutes later…"He's gone," said Stefan.Tears kept falling.They hugged for a while longer before pulling apart. Gwen looked at Stefan with her tear-stricken face.

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
