Luna furrowed her brows and circled past Heather again. “I don't like drowning my sorrows with alcohol.”With that, she strode down the stairs.After she had just taken two steps, Heather stopped her once more. “Why are you so afraid to drink with me, Luna? I won't laugh at you if you're lightweight.”Luna frowned upon hearing this. She glared at Heather and said, “Since you know I'm lightweight, why do you keep on insisting on drinking with me? What are you up to?”Heather's entire body stiffened when she heard this.She suddenly realized that out of her desperation, she had accidentally said the wrong thing.She pursed her lips and grabbed hold of Luna, smiling. “Of course I'm not up to anything. I just thought you're probably so preoccupied with everything that's happened lately. After all, Mother raised me since young, and I, too, am upset to see her like this.“I've been thinking that you and I haven't gotten the chance to have dinner together and chat ever since you return

She turned to look at Heather and continued, “I've already come all the way to Merchant City to see my birth parents, so shouldn't you go and visit yours, too?”Heather narrowed her eyes and said through gritted teeth, “I'll pay them a visit if I have time in the future.”Luna turned to gaze out the window once more.She could see Jim's car parked outside the gate.When she saw this, Luna let out a small sigh of relief.When they stood outside her room moments ago, she had dialed Jim's number as she put her phone into her pocket.Jim had overheard their conversation and knew that Heather was drinking with Luna in her room.Luna finally felt the weight lift off her shoulders when she saw Jim getting out of his car.She knew that she could not escape Heather's persuasion, and she was clear that Heather probably had ulterior motives for inviting her for a drink.However, she had someone to help her, too.Heather did not notice that Jim had returned. She was still engrossed in he

Heather, who was shoved back into her chair, lifted her head to glare at Jim. “I don't want to drink anymore; you can't force me to!”Jim sneered. “Force you?”He fixated his cold gaze on Heather's face and said, “Well, weren't you the one forcing Luna to drink with you just now? Why do you say I'm forcing you when I'm doing exactly what you did?”The color drained from Heather's face. She said, her lips trembling, “I…I'm feeling unwell all of a sudden…”“Didn't you say you have something to take care of just now?” Jim placed the glass of wine in front of Heather. “Just now, you persuaded Luna to drink with you in her room, but now you keep coming up with excuses to reject the wine…”He glanced at the two bottles of wine that had been mixed inside the decanter and sneered. “Is it because you spiked one of these bottles with some drugs, so you're not willing to drink it now?”With that, he took out his phone and said, “If that's the case, then I'll have to call Father dear. I'll l

Luna glanced at the drunken Heather slumped on the floor, ordered a servant to send Heather back to her room, then turned to glance at Jim. “Can you take me out for a walk?”Jim nodded, draped his jacket over Luna, then brought her out the door. Inside a room on the second floor, a drunken Heather leaned against the bay window, watching Jim's car leave, and cursed underneath her breath, “How dare he spoil my plans!”With that, she took out her phone and dialed Malcolm's number. “Luna's already drunk and in her room; get here quick!”Malcolm curled his lips into a smile. “Alright.”He initially did not have any hopes that Heather would successfully intoxicate Luna, but it turned out…Luna was probably too upset by what happened to Rosalyn, which led her to agree to drink with Heather.Malcolm curled his lips into a smile. On his way to Landry Mansion, he swallowed the pill that Hunter had prepared for him.He had gone too long without feeling a woman's touch.The last time he

Luna wrapped her arms around Bonnie.The two women hugged each other, and after stroking each other's faces in adoration and teasing the other about having lost some weight, Luna turned to glance at Jim. “Bonnie, Jim says his head hurts, so why don't you give him a massage?”Bonnie frowned and glanced at this man, whom she had not seen in a long time, and snickered. “If your head hurts, Mr. Landry, then I'd suggest you go to the hospital. “My massage techniques are only suitable for normal people.”She was suggesting that Jim was not normal at all. Jim narrowed his eyes. His hand, which was still on the car door handle, stiffened for a moment before slamming the door shut.He had initially wanted to leave after escorting Luna into the house, but as soon as he heard this, he did not want to go anymore. He stared at Bonnie with a sharp look and said, “Well, then I refuse to go to a hospital. I want to enjoy Ms. Craig's so-called 'normal people' massage.”With that, he strode i

“If you don't take responsibility for what you did after today, I will kill your entire family—”Before she could even finish her sentence, her mouth was sealed shut with Jim's lips, and she could only groan in reply.Jim's low voice rang out, “I'll take responsibility for the rest of your life!”Luna's entire body stiffened.Her outstretched hand, which was about to knock on the door, hovered mid-air.A split second later, she turned and went downstairs, blushing, and got onto the car while comforting Nellie through the phone.“Mr. Driver, head to Swan Lake Chalet, quick!”Throughout the journey from Tea Cottage to Swan Lake Chalet, Luna leaned against the backseat and stared out the window, her mind tangled with thoughts.She was worried about Nigel and Nellie.On the other hand, she could not help feeling that bringing Jim to Bonnie's place was a mistake. Jim already had a son, and on top of that, Luna had heard Harvey mention that Jim had a first love he had yet to forge

When Luna's car arrived at Swan Lake Chalet, a black car was parked at the entrance.The car door was pushed open.The person who got out of the car was none other than Joshua, dressed entirely in black.Despite not having seen him for only a day, Luna could not help feeling that he looked far more haggard than she last remembered.His face was unshaven, and he seemed to have lost weight.He sprinted into the house, yelling Nellie's name at the same time.A split second later, Nellie's sobbing voice rang out through the yard, “Daddy— “You're finally home! Quick, look at Nigel!”At this moment, another car pulled up in front of Swan Lake Chalet.Christopher stormed into the house, clutching a first-aid kit. Behind him, a small, chubby hand pushed open the car door.A young girl, who looked about six or seven years old and was dressed in a traditional outfit, got out of the car.She had initially wanted to go into the house as well, but for some reason, she suddenly turned ar

Christopher let out a sigh as he tried to formulate a drug to help Nigel. “His health has never been the best, and even after receiving a new bone marrow, that doesn't mean his problems will be solved forever. He still needs to maintain it.“It's clear that during this time, both you and Luna were so busy that you couldn't take him for his follow-up appointments.“And according to his current state, it seems he has been worrying a lot lately… Maybe he's too worried about you and Luna.”With that, Christopher glanced at Nigel's pale face and continued, “From my usual observation, Nigel is the most mature and level-headed out of your three children, and every time something happens, he’ll be able to comfort his brother and sister calmly.“Because of this, I thought he wasn’t as close to you and Luna as the other two are, but I never expected that such a young boy would be so worried about two adults' affairs that he’d fall sick.”Joshua let out a sigh upon hearing this. “Nigel is li

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
