Luna was so nervous that her palms started sweating.It turned out that Joshua had changed after all.His sudden return to Banyan City without notifying her was to find the herb that would save her mother!Luna suddenly recalled what Nellie had said on the phone to her, that Joshua had claimed that he had something important to find.The important thing he had been talking about was the herb that would save Rosalyn, was it not?Luna closed her eyes and tried to make sense of the emotions she was feeling. She knew that Joshua harbored hatred toward the Landry family, so he had not helped them to get on their good side at all.It was all for her.He was willing to help cure Rosalyn, his mortal enemy, so that Luna would not be forced to return to the Landry family after Rosalyn’s death out of guilt!Luna stared out the window and felt like she was floating on a cloud.Joshua…had changed!She could not accuse him of not prioritizing her or the children anymore!The car soon ar
Malcolm glanced at Luna out of the corner of his eye, then shook Charles’ hand with a smile. “Don’t thank me, Mr. Landry. After all, we’ll eventually become a family.”Charles paused for a moment, then burst into laughter and replied, “Yes, you’re right, Malcolm. We’ll eventually become a family!”Luna and Bonnie exchanged a look when they heard this.What was going on?Should Charles not be thanking Joshua, who had gone back to Banyan City overnight just to find the herb that had saved Rosalyn?Why was Charles thanking Malcolm instead and even telling him that they would become a family? What was happening?All of a sudden, the door to the room was pushed open.Charles let go of Malcolm's hand and stormed into the room while Christopher and Jim came out.Luna bit her lip and approached them. “Mr. Christopher.”She let out an exhale and contemplated her words before saying, “My mother’s illness…was Joshua the one who had saved her?”“Joshua?” Christopher's expression darkened
Rosalyn sniffed and said tearfully, “Luna, please return to our side, will you? I want to use the remainder of my life to make things up to you…”Luna pursed her lips and lowered her head. “I don’t want to.”The color drained from Rosalyn’s face when she heard this.A split second later, she clutched her chest and coughed out a mouthful of blood.This sudden twist of events made Charles’ entire body stiffen. He furrowed his brows and made sure that Rosalyn was all right while turning to shoot Luna a cold glance. “Why aren’t you willing to return to our side? Is this because of Joshua Lynch?“Joshua Lynch claimed that he’d save your mother, but in the end, he humiliated Christopher with a bunch of dried grass and almost led to your mother’s treatment being delayed. Why are you still so faithful to a man like this?“Luna, I know that the Landry family has mistreated you in the past, but we’ll make up for our mistakes!“Has Joshua ever made up for his mistakes and mistreatment?”L
Luna could not help wringing her hands when she heard this. She bit her lip and lifted her head to stare at Jim. “Do you agree that Joshua had humiliated Christopher on purpose and insulted both the Landry family and me?”Luna had thought that as Joshua’s cousin, Jim would be different from everyone else, but…“Well, what else do you think his intention was of doing this?” Jim let out a sneer and added, “Are you trying to tell me that an intelligent man like Joshua Lynch can’t even tell a rare herb apart from some common grass, despite having photos to help him? Even a child can understand the pictures that Christopher had shown him, so what went wrong?”Luna bit her lip when she heard this. She let out an exhale and closed her eyes. “I won’t return to your side for the time being.“I want to hear Joshua’s explanation for all this.”She would not believe any of these accusations unless she could hear Joshua admitting himself that he had deliberately done this to humiliate both C
Heather had on some light makeup, and her skin looked radiant. It was evident that she was the heiress of a wealthy family.Seeing that Luna had noticed her, Heather could not help smiling. Then, she sat down gracefully in Jim’s empty seat and extended her hand toward Luna. “Luna, it’s about time we meet in private.“My name is Heather Landry, and I’m Aura’s sister, the eldest daughter of Joseph and Natasha, your adoptive parents.“According to our ages, you were born a few days before me, so I should call you ‘Big Sister’ as Aura did.”Luna could not help narrowing her eyes when she heard the mention of Aura’s name. She recalled the conversation that she had overheard outside Blue Bay Villa when Aura was talking to someone on the phone.At that time, Aura had called someone, “Sis.” Heather must have been talking to Heather.At that time, Luna had thought that Aura was the real heiress of the Landry family and that Heather was Luna's biological sister. On top of that, she had e
Luna’s expression darkened when she heard this.She narrowed her eyes and turned around, staring at Heather from her great height. “A homeless little runt?”Luna sneered as she gazed at Heather's pale face. “Heather, I guess somehow you think that as the heiress of the Landry family, your status is unsurpassable.“Have you forgotten something? If Joshua has really abandoned me, I’ll have to return to the Landry family. If that happens, then I wonder who’ll become the homeless little runt you’re talking about!”Luna turned and strode away, with Heather gaping at her in shock.After coming out of the restaurant and getting into the car, tears brimmed Luna's eyes.Heather was right.If Joshua abandoned her…then she would indeed become a homeless little runt.As soon as she thought of this, Luna lowered her head and took out her phone to send a message to Joshua.[I know you’re busy, so much so that you don’t even have time to come find me. The Landry family has given me seven day
Rosalyn’s condition had indeed improved, but according to the Landry family, the herb that Joshua had risked his life to pick was provided by Malcolm instead. On top of that, the Landry and Quinn families had announced that they would cooperate to defeat other companies that had infiltrated Merchant City.It was clear that the company they were talking about was Lynch Group. However, what Jude found incredibly difficult to accept was…The Landry family had announced that they would be hosting an extravagant party to welcome the return of Luna, the real heiress of the Landry family.When Jude heard this, he could not believe his ears. Luna was going to become a Landry soon!Joshua had risked his life to find an herb from the edge of a cliff so that Rosalyn would be cured and that Luna would not have to return to the Landry family and become his enemy anymore.What happened after that?Malcolm had taken credit for the herb that Joshua had found, and soon, the love of Joshua’s l
Landry Mansion.Luna sat expressionlessly in front of her dressing table as she allowed the servants to put makeup and jewelry on her. Most of the jewelry that they were putting on her had been provided by Heather.As though trying to get back at Luna for her rude remarks, the jewelry that Heather had provided was all tacky and cheap, despite being almost priceless. In the past, Luna would never even have given these pieces of jewelry a second glance, but at this moment, she allowed the servants to put them on her without even a word of protest.Luna stared at the image of the thin woman in the mirror. During this past week, she had not been able to eat or sleep because of Joshua. Every time she heard a noise outside Tea Cottage, she would get up and sprint to the window to take a look, but none of those times were Joshua.None of them.Slowly, the hope in Luna's heart dissipated and was replaced by disappointment. She spent the last seven days drawing various pictures o
