Luna glanced at Heather. "I shouldn't hold this against you, considering you're mentally ill."With that, she shot Heather, who was still laying in Malcolm's arms, a disdainful look and added, "My dear sister, if there's something wrong, you'd better seek treatment about it. Don't go running around troubling other people anymore."Heather was so outraged to hear this that her face turned white, and she started to tremble in anger.However, she suppressed her rage and nodded, biting her lip. "Al…alright then."Luna narrowed her eyes and was about to say something when someone pushed open the room door.A doctor dressed in a white coat strode out. "Mr. Landry is doing fine now. He says he wants to get some rest and requests that his good-for-nothing daughter get out of here with her sidekick."With that, he glanced at Malcolm and continued, "Master Quinn, Mr. Landry wants you and your fiancée to go in."Malcolm let out a sigh. "Father still wants us to be with him."He shot Luna
When Joshua saw Mickey, he, too, had caught sight of Joshua.He curled his lips into a gentle smile and said, "We meet again, Mr. Lynch."Joshua narrowed his eyes.If he remembered correctly, this was the third time he had ever bumped into this man, and every time they ran into each other, Mickey would always greet him in a friendly and polite manner."Do you know each other?" Luna frowned, appearing surprised.Even though the butler had told her this man named Mickey was Rosalyn's apprentice, this was still Luna's first time meeting him.However, according to the way he greeted Joshua, they seemed to have known each other for a while."Of course we do." Joshua strode over to them, sneering, and said in a cold voice, "I've always wanted to ask Mr. Mickey a question."Mickey pushed his gold-rimmed glasses up on his nose and did not seem at all surprised by Joshua's reaction and words. "Since my father has summoned me to meet Ms. Luna and answer her queries, naturally, I'll answe
"Yes." Then, he shut the car door.With the car door being shut loudly, Luna's mind was in a mess.Did her mother send Mickey to see Granny Lynch the day she died? The engine of the car started. Luna subconsciously turned her head and looked out of the window.Joshua was still standing in the same spot. The aura he emitted was so cold that she could even feel it through the car window.Luna felt a little suffocated.Did Granny Lynch's death have something to do with her mother? Also, from Joshua's attitude toward Mickey, Joshua should have already long known that Mickey went to visit the scene of the crime of Granny Lynch's death and that he was one of Rosalyn's men.Luna thought back to the day her mother was hurt, eight months ago…That day, her mother was also stabbed by a knife in the chest. Was that not the same thing that happened to Granny Lynch?Luna closed her eyes, and a terrifying thought appeared in her mind. Could it be that…Joshua hurt Rosalyn because of Granny
Luna was stunned. She pursed her lips and cautiously looked at Mickey. "So…why did my mother send you to see Granny Lynch?"Mickey narrowed his eyes and looked at Luna in hesitation. After a while, he collected his emotions and turned to look out of the window."Mrs. Landry doesn't allow me to tell anyone about it. If you want to know, you must wait for her to come around. You'll hear about it then."Just as he finished his sentence, the car stopped at the entrance of a courtyard.Mickey smiled and looked at Luna. "Ms. Luna, we're here." Luna, who was still confused, got out of the car with Gwen. When Mickey left, Luna stood by the entrance and watched him leave. She furrowed her brows tightly."We're finally home!" Gwen stretched lazily. She turned around and hugged Luna around the shoulders. "Come, let's head back and get some rest! No matter how unhappy things are currently, good sleep will help!"Luna was silent for a while. Then, she took Gwen's arms off her. "You head b
However, Luna always still had a little hope in her.In her dreams late at night, she would always wonder whether Joshua might appear right outside her door the very next second, insisting to be with her despite their family feuds.She wanted to leave everything behind and start anew with Joshua in a place where no one knew them, in a place where there was no family feud. No Landrys, no Lynchs, as well as no Quinns.Alas, Luna knew that it was impossible. Impossible. All those were impossible. She had to face the cold and despair of reality.What Mickey told her that day, the cruel truth had crushed the remaining sliver of hope in her heart.Joshua would never let go of the feud. If he could give up, he would not have hurt Rosalyn so badly because of Granny Lynch.Crying for a long time, Luna laid on Rosalyn, hugging her tightly."Mom, I…" Luna was halfway through when she felt something sticky. She frantically retreated her hand to have a look.Under the lights, her hand…was c
Luna instantly thought of Joshua upon the doctor's words.She bit her lip and told herself that it was impossible. Joshua would never…First, she trusted that Joshua was not that cruel. Second, Joshua has never seen Rosalyn before, so how could he—"Luna?" Suddenly, Jim's voice pulled Luna back to reality.She came to her senses. "What is it?"Jim sighed. He turned to look at Rosalyn, whose wounds were being cleaned up by the doctor."Did anyone come in contact with Mom today?"He had been in Banyan City all this while. Bonnie had no experience in caring for children. A few days ago, Joshua's and Luna's children caught a cold, and the doctors said that there might be a possibility of pneumonia.Bonnie called Jim in the middle of the night, crying, and confessing her mistakes. She said she was going to get soaked under the rain until she caught a cold and got pneumonia, that only then would she feel better. Thus, Jim had to hop on a private flight to Banyan City to look for Bonn
Thank goodness they were in Merchant City, the territory of the Landrys and Quinns. If the Landrys and the Quinns were in Banyan City like they used to be, Joshua did not even need a month to bring them down.He was a terrifying man. Without any leverage, no one could control him! "Malcolm." Heather pushed the door open, annoyed. She looked unhappy. "Jim just called, and he asked us to head over to Luna's. Something has happened to Rosalyn."Heather said while rolling her eyes, "How torturing! It's already eleven at night! What could happen to a vegetable like Rosalyn?"Malcolm squinted a little upon hearing Heather's words. "They found out about it quick enough."According to his plan, Luna and the others should only find out about the rotting on Rosalyn's body the next morning.By then, Rosalyn's back would be completely rotten. "What did they find out about?" Heather looked confused."Joshua went over to see Rosalyn today." Malcolm stood up in a good mood. He walked over a
The doctor took up to an hour to clean Rosalyn's wounds.When it was almost done, only then did Malcolm and Heather arrive with another doctor.Malcolm and Heather's clothes were rather unkempt. There was also an obvious hickey on his neck.When the two of them entered, Jim looked at his watch and sneered."More than an hour. The journey from the Quinns to here takes about half an hour, yet you both took more than an hour…" Jim said while he swept them a cold glance.He sneered. "Don't tell me that after taking my call, you two were still doing the bedroom deed?"Heather's expressions turned rather ugly for being exposed to the things that she just did.Malcolm, on the other hand, chuckled a little. He gently hugged Heather and said, "Heather told me that you called, saying that something has happened to Rosalyn. I know that Christopher isn't around, and I'm sure you don't have a doctor at your disposal."Malcolm smiled and pulled the old doctor standing behind them timidly ove
