When Luna and Theo arrived at Gwen's room, she was being held against the bed by an angry Luke, his hand around her neck."Luke Jones… I will…never forgive you…" Gwen's entire face had turned purple, but she still muttered the same words of hatred over and over."Luke!" Luna stormed into the room and grabbed hold of Luke's arm. "Let go of her! She hasn't recovered from her bleeding today yet. Are you trying to choke her to death?"Luke narrowed his eyes when he heard the anger in Luna's tone and let go of Gwen.Gwen slumped back onto her bed, panting heavily, and let out a cackle as she stared at the ceiling above her head. "Why did you stop him? You should've let him kill me."She continued to stare at the ceiling with a distraught look. "I'm blind. All of the men I fall in love with are worst than the last, so knowing this, is it wrong of me to want to kill myself?"She sniffed as tears slid silently down her cheek. "Even if you don't kill me, Luke, I'll one day escape from her
However, Luna did not intend to pry and instead just hugged Gwen and let her sob in her arms.Gwen's cries echoed through the entire room.Luna, too, started crying as she comforted Gwen.She had been having a hard time, too, having been faced with a man who did not love her anymore and an entirely new working environment with tasks that she had no idea how to accomplish.She had thought Charlotte was here to help her, but what happened?It turned out that Charlotte was just using her to get close to Jim and did not care about the consequences of her actions on Luna at all.She had understood every single word Jim was trying to tell her.She was just a pawn in Charlotte's game.However, who would she rely on to compete against Joshua, if not Charlotte?She was not capable of running the company at all, but she was Charles and Rosalyn's daughter, so she had to step up and take responsibility.She could not possibly give up on Landry Group after what happened to Charles and Ros
Luna's entire body stiffened when she heard this.She fell silent for a moment, then shook her head. "How is that possible? I gave birth at my house, whereas Heather gave birth in Central Hospital, so the two babies can't possibly have been confused."Gwen rolled her eyes at her. "I'm not saying someone confused the babies."What if they had deliberately switched them out? Have you ever thought of the possibility that Heather was the one whose child had died at birth?"After all the bad things she did, it'd be entirely possible that the baby would rather die than to call her its mother!"Luna could not help chuckling when she heard this. "That's impossible."However, Gwen did not give up at all.She glanced at the wristband she was wearing.The hospital they were at was Merchant City Central Hospital, the same one where Heather had given birth!She bit her lip and grabbed hold of Luna's arm. "Since you and Joshua are here at the same time, why don't you look for the doctors an
Heather suddenly received a call from a foreign number as soon as she got into the car after coming out of the DNA Diagnostic Center.She furrowed her brows as she picked up the call."Heather, you're the reason Jim discovered I'm here," Charlotte's displeased voice rang out from the other end of the line. She sneered and icily added, "You're just as much of a busybody as you were six years ago!"Heather could not help curling her lips into a smirk when she heard how exasperated Charlotte was. "This is what you get for not paying me, Charlotte."She curled her lips into a triumphant smile. "I told you before. Even though I'm no longer the heiress of the Landry family, it still doesn't make it okay for you to order me around like this."I still haven't told Jim about your involvement in helping us kill Luna."After all, the only reason we got to know Jason was because of you, wasn't it?"As soon as she said this, Heather smacked her forehead in sudden realization. "Oh, you probab
Luna looked around in the archives of Central Hospital but did not find the files on Heather having a child there back then.Luna asked the staff there once again. They told her that there was only one archive room in the hospital. If there was a file on Heather, it would definitely be there.In the end, after the second round of futile searching, Luna gave up. Leaving the archives, the more Luna thought, the more she felt that Gwen was right.Logically speaking, the information on Heather giving birth should be in the archives. If it was not there, someone must have taken it.If there was nothing fishy going on with Heather giving birth, that what they said about Heather smoothly birthing Riley was true, then why did they take away the files on her operation in the hospital back then?Luna returned to Gwen's ward filled with confusion. She told Gwen about the missing files when at that moment, Lucas frantically rushed in from outside."Ma'am, something has happened! I was about
The doctor sighed and gently patted Luna on her shoulders. "Her brain and most of her organs have been heavily damaged, and no one will be able to rescue her anymore. She doesn't have much time left. Since you're her sister, go see her for the last time."Luna was so shocked that she was at a loss for words.How could this have happened? A few days ago, Heather arrogantly looked for her in prison, telling her that she knew where her child was.However, at that moment…"Don't waste any more time." The doctor looked at Heather in the emergency room and sighed helplessly. "She keeps looking at you. I believe she might have something she wants to tell you."Luna bit her lip and subconsciously looked toward the room.Sure enough, Heather, on the bed, was looking at her fixedly. Her eyes seemed to be saying a million things.Her arms were moving a little as if she was beckoning Luna to her.It was a pity that her forearm was completely broken. Her arm could only be limp next to her,
Luna was stunned as she listened to what Heather was saying, and her disbelief was written all over her face.At the mention of Jason, Luna waited for a long time, but Heather did not continue.Luna furrowed her brows and asked in a suppressed tone, "What about Jason?""I'm tired," Heather sighed. She smiled a little and said her last sentence wispily, "The thing with Rosalyn has nothing to do with Joshua Lynch. He is a good man."Then, Heather's head went limp, and she stopped breathing.Luna lifted her head in shock. She reached out to see if Heather was still breathing. She no longer was.Luna looked at Heather's eyes that dazedly gazed up at the ceiling, and she felt inexplicably heartbroken. Tears fell silently, but not because she was sorry for Heather. Heather ended up that way because of karma, and she deserved it.Luna was sad at the fragility of life.Joshua called the doctors before walking over and pulling the crying Luna in his arms. Luna did not push him away. S
Charlotte never thought that Heather had left her such a huge gift before she died!Was Riley not the child of Heather and Malcolm?Charlotte narrowed her eyes and took her phone out."Roanne, get me some bodyguards to accompany me to Heather's mansion."If she took the child from Malcolm, she would not be afraid that Luna would disobey her.However, Charlotte did not expect that when she, Roanne, and the bodyguards arrived at the mansion where Heather and Malcolm were staying, it was already empty.Roanne led the men to search around the mansion, but there was no one to be found. She anxiously returned to Charlotte."What do we do now?"Charlotte squinted. "Since no one is staying here, burn the building to the ground."Were Joshua and Jim not investigating Heather's death? Well, she would give them direction, then!Heather just died and Malcolm vanished with the child, even burning the place to the ground.Was there not a better suspect than Malcolm?Roanne naturally knew
