How could Malcolm have…At this moment, Luna no longer thought Malcolm was the kind and gentle man he used to be anymore.She immediately glanced at Heather, kneeling on the ground.She did not know whether Heather was doing this on purpose or not, but at this moment, Heather's collar had shifted out of its place, revealing the patch of hickeys all over her collarbone and neck.At the same time, her sleeve had been rolled up, exposing the hickeys on her arm. From the marks all over her body, it was clear what a vigorous night it had been for her and Malcolm.Charles placed his hand on his forehead in exasperation. He never thought…He never thought so much stuff had happened at Landry Mansion while he was away last night at Rosalyn's bedside, talking to her as he held her hand.He closed his eyes and ordered the butler in a weak voice, “Show me the security footage of last night!”The butler nodded and quickly sent someone to check the security tapes.Soon, they managed to
The color drained from Luna's face, who was being shielded behind Jim's back. She wrung her hands together and lifted her head to stare at Granny Quinn. "Granny Quinn, I think this wedding can't go on anymore.""What do you mean, this wedding can't go on anymore?" Granny Quinn sneered and stared at Luna. "Are you unaware of the amount of effort we put in to save you six years ago?"As she said this, she sneered at Luna contemptuously, "I never liked you from the start, but Malcolm was willing to call off his engagement for you and insisted on taking care of you and even the three little rascals of yours!"Now that you've become the second daughter of the Landry family, you want to get rid of our Malcolm with a lame excuse just like that? In your dreams!""A lame excuse?" Jim narrowed his eyes and stared at Granny Quinn coldly. "Your previous grandson came to our house in the middle of the night and slept with my other sister. How dare you call this a lame excuse?"Granny Quinn let
As soon as Malcolm said this, Granny Quinn frowned. "Are you really willing to marry this good-for-nothing woman? Do you know that—"Before she could finish her sentence, Malcolm shot her a murderous glare that made her shut up immediately."Let's just leave it at that." Malcolm lifted his head to glance at Charles. "However, Mr. Landry, my mind is a little confused right now, so it's difficult for me to accept this news…"I think it's best to postpone my and Heather's wedding for now."Granny Quinn quickly added, "Yes, yes, let's postpone the wedding for as long as we can."Maybe sometime soon, your precious Heather will also become pregnant with some unknown man's baby…and maybe then we'll have to call off the wedding once more!"The entire room fell into silence upon hearing this. Jim narrowed his eyes. "What are you implying? Who are you saying is pregnant with an unknown man's baby?"Granny Quinn pretended to have accidentally blurted something out and quickly placed her
The airport.Nigel leaned feebly against the seat of his wheelchair as he gazed intently in the direction of the entrance.Neil let out a sigh as he clutched his hand. "Nigel, let's not wait anymore. We should get on the plane now."With that, he glanced at the entrance and added, "If Mommy could come, she wouldn't have not shown up at Uncle Christopher's place last night. Maybe she…has her own problems to deal with."Nigel bit his lip when he heard this, but his gaze was still fixated on the entrance in the distance.He hoped to see Mommy, even if it was just a glimpse of her. She used to care so much about them in the past, so how could she let them leave without even saying goodbye?This time, if everything went smoothly, the three children would return to Banyan City and never come back to Merchant City.On top of that, the Landry family would never allow Luna to go to Banyan City either.Therefore, if they did not manage to meet up, then the next time they saw each other
Luna lifted her head.The chiseled face before hers was none other than Joshua's.Joshua stared at her with a sneer playing on his lips. "This plane was supposed to take off two hours ago, but the children kept on pestering me to wait for you, and this even took up two hours of Jude's time."Nigel kept calling and texting you until his phone ran out of battery."He lowered his head to glance at the time and added, "Two hours, but it only takes twenty minutes from Landry Mansion to the airport. I never thought you’d be so busy after returning to the Landry family, Ms. Luna."The night before, when Nigel had passed out, Luna had promised Nellie that she would visit them at Swan Lake Chalet, but she did not keep her promise.The three children wanted to see her for one last time before leaving Merchant City, but she missed this one, too.Joshua could understand the cruelty Luna displayed toward him, but he did not understand how Luna could be so heartless toward the children as wel
Did Luna cancel her engagement with Malcolm?Joshua furrowed his brows and stared intently at Lucas. "What happened?""I'm not sure about the details, but it seems like…Master Quinn had slept with Heather Landry, and Ma'am was upset about this, so she decided to call off the wedding."However, Malcolm and Heather have gotten engaged now, so the Quinn and Landry families are still going to become in-laws."Joshua narrowed his eyes. "When did this happen?""This morning!"This morning?Joshua's entire body stiffened.Was this why Luna had not come to send the children off? Was it because she had been busy dealing with this?Joshua fell silent for a moment, then ordered, "Driver, step on the gas and chase after Jim Landry's car!"The car quickly started. When the car zoomed out of the parking lot, Jim's car was still not too far away.The driver stepped on the accelerator to chase after them.All of a sudden, Joshua's phone rang. It was from Bonnie. "Don't bother chasing a
Joshua curled his lips into a smirk and replied, "Well, as long as you're with me, I can drink however much you want."Lucas bit his lip and glanced at Joshua with a worried look. He wanted to say something, but in the end, kept his mouth shut.He knew that Joshua had a weak stomach and that he had promised Ma'am in the past that he would not drink again, but…Lucas knew that his opinions did not matter to Joshua, so he had no say in any of this. Instead, he shot Luke a meaningful look while Joshua had his eyes closed, signaling him not to let Joshua drink too much at night.Nightfall soon came.That night, Joshua experienced the familiar stomach pain he had not felt in a long time and was sent to the hospital.At the same time, a minivan pulled out of Landry Mansion in the dead of night.…Eight months later.A small yard on the outskirts of Merchant City was illuminated with lights.Luna lay on the bed, drenched in sweat. She clutched the bed sheets tightly, her face so pal
"F*ck!" Hunter cursed, knocking on his steering wheel in frustration as soon as he hung up.Who would have thought that someone would abduct the child from him in the dead of night at such a secluded place?Joshua had returned to Banyan City to visit his late grandmother's grave, and he had probably just gotten off the place at this time.Therefore, the men who had taken the child from him were probably not Joshua's men.Who could they be? What were they trying to do?No matter how hard he tried, Hunter could not come up with the answer. Nonetheless, this was not the time to wonder about all these!Hunter rubbed his head in annoyance. All these months, the Quinn family had become Joshua's primary target, and there were even a few times when Hunter had committed mistakes in his work and almost led to Quinn Group going bankrupt!Even at this point, he had even failed to accomplish the task Malcolm had given him…What was he going to tell Malcolm when he arrived at the hospita
