Chapter 1883

Author: Inked Snow
Joshua immediately frowned when he heard this.

He had indeed been on a phone call with Luke previously while at the bus station, but he had not called him to rat on Gwen.

He had called Luke out of concern that he would blame this on Luna, knowing that Luke and Luna would definitely run into each other at the station.

As soon as he heard that Gwen was heading to the station to meet Luna, he contacted Caleb to verify whether Luke was in Lincoln City.

After all, Luke had been planning to head there for a business trip, and Lincoln City was Caleb's territory.

Therefore, if Luke had arrived there, Caleb would surely have been alerted of his presence.

Because of this, as soon as Caleb told him that Luke had not come to Lincoln City, Joshua immediately knew that Luke had pulled a no-show on the man he had been planning to meet with for a business opportunity.

The reason he had done so was to recapture Gwen, the bird who had attempted to escape from her captivity in search of freedom.

    Luna was so thunderstruck to hear this news that her blood ran cold.After five seconds, she lowered her head to scrutinize the report Joshua handed to her once more.It was clearly written there that Bonnie was pregnant, and she was about a month along, too.Luna bit her lip.A month ago…Was this not the time when she was recovering from having just given birth?She remembered very clearly that she could not seem to get in touch with Jim at all during that time.After that, she heard from elsewhere that Jim's daughter, Shelly, had run a high fever during that time, and Bonnie had been blaming herself for failing to take care of Shelly properly.Because of this, Jim had flown over to Banyan City especially to visit her, which finally helped Bonnie overcome her guilt.This meant that…the baby inside Bonnie's womb was probably conceived during that time.Seeing that Luna was no longer fixated on Luke and Gwen, Joshua rubbed his brows in exasperation and said, "I had gone to th

    Luna's breath caught in her throat as soon as Joshua brought up her moving her luggage into his room.That morning, she never thought that Joshua would treat her so coldly.When she woke up in his bed that morning, she could not help feeling a little glad, even though she was so exhausted that she did not even have a single ounce of strength left in her body.She thought Joshua had been telling the truth when he told her he missed her.She thought that when he dragged her into bed that night, it was because he could no longer suppress his longingness and lust for her anymore.Not only that, but when Luna recalled how nice he had been acting toward her lately, as well as his enthusiasm in investigating Colin's death in order to resolve the vengeance between their two families, she could not help feeling blissful and ended up moving all her luggage into Joshua's room.At that time, Luna thought that some things did not need to be said, just like how he had brought her into bed out

    Inside Theo's painting, a graceful and scholarly-looking woman stood amid a field of yellow flowers.Both Theo and Bonnie lifted their heads as soon as Luna walked in."You're back.""Yes, I am." Luna sat on the edge of the bed and glanced at Theo's drawing. "This woman looks a little familiar."Theo let out a somewhat weak chuckle. "Roanne got in touch with me this morning, and she wanted me to paint a picture of her and gift it to her the next time we meet."As he said this, he pointed at the painting and asked, "She was dressed in white when we saw her yesterday, so I drew her in the same clothes. Does this painting look like her?"Luna glanced at the painting, frowning, then shook her head. "No, it doesn't. it looks more like…"Like Dr. Rachel.Of course, Luna did not say this aloud."Is that so?" Theo stood up and quickly tidied up his things. "Well, if that's the case, I'll go ask Joshua if he has any photos or further information about Roanne so that I can get inspired.

    The entire room fell silent.Bonnie stared blankly at Luna's face, her entire body frozen in shock.A split second later, her face twitched, and she curled her lips into a bitter smile. "How is that even possible…"How could she have gotten pregnant?When she had gotten a checkup at the hospital, the doctor had told her that because of some complications while giving birth six years ago, she had lost most of her reproductive ability and only had less than a ten-percent chance of getting pregnant naturally.Because of this low probability, Bonnie had assumed that she was infertile.Because of this, she was extremely fond of Jim's two children and treated them like her own.She thought that Jim must have loved kids, considering he had two even before getting married.Ironically, she became infertile.Despite this, she still naively thought that as long as she treated Jim's children well enough, it would make up for the fact that she could not bear him a child of their own.Ther

    Bonnie never thought that after her relationship with Jim turned sour, she would receive the news of her being pregnant.It seemed that fate had toyed with her yet again.Luna bit her lip as she stared at the pregnancy test kit in Bonnie's hand. "Did Jim…give you this because he wanted you to get pregnant?"Luna's voice finally pulled Bonnie back to reality.She nodded solemnly and let out a bitter smile. "Yes, but it seems that this child didn't arrive at the right time."Luna bit her lip and gripped Bonnie's hand tightly. "Maybe this child will become the key to you and Jim's reconciliation."She stared earnestly at Bonnie and continued, "Even though I'm Jim's sister, I still think this decision should be up to you."If you want to keep this child, we'll keep it, and even if Jim doesn't treat you well in the future, I'll help look after you."One day, he'll regain his lost memories of you."If…"The glimmer in Luna's eyes disappeared as she said, "Even if you don't want to

    "But from the way you look now…" Luna could not help frowning as she glanced at Bonnie's fully-bandaged finger. "I think you'd better stay home and rest."Bonnie had yet to recover from her abdomen injury, and she had even suffered a fracture in her finger.Judging from the severity of her wounds, Bonnie should indeed stay home and rest.Bonnie, however, shook her head. "I'm fine. Dr. Laura gave me some medicine before she left, so I'm feeling much better now."With that, she pointed at the empty IV drip hanging above her head and offered her hand to Luna. "Since this kid belongs to Jim… I want to give it one last try, for the baby's sake."She watched Luna as she removed the cannula from her hand and smiled weakly. "Maybe I can give the child a proper home."Luna furrowed her brows. "But…"Bonnie herself had said that Jim's attitude toward her had been poor ever since their encounter at the hospital that morning.Therefore, even if Bonnie had followed her to Landry Mansion tha

    "You eat; I'm done with my food."With that, Joshua stood up and left.As he brushed past Luna, Joshua's shoulder bumped forcefully against Luna's and almost forced her onto the ground.However, he did not even turn around and instead stomped upstairs as though he could not feel this.Luna remained motionless, glaring at Joshua's retreating figure as she clutched her aching shoulder.What was he mad about? Had he not said these exact words to Lucas that morning?"Why did you talk to him like that?" Theo shot Luna a helpless glance, then looked at the food on the table, which Joshua had barely even touched. "He had lost his appetite this morning because of his fight with you, and now he's refusing to eat…"If this goes on any longer, his body won't be able to take it."Luna pursed her lips slightly and, after helping Bonnie settle down, plopped down into her own seat. "I hadn't even done anything to irk him, yet he got on my nerves this morning and even blamed me for it!"The m

    Luna frowned when she heard this. "When did I even say that?"Bonnie rolled her eyes at her and quickly took out her phone to show Luna their conversation from the night before. "Look!"Luna glanced at the screen, her frown still etched on her face. Lo and behold, the message read, [If the vengeance between the Landry and Lynch families no longer existed, will you choose to get back together with Joshua?]After reading these words a few more times, Luna finally knocked her forehead. "Had I misread the message?"She remembered that Bonnie had asked her whether she would choose to get back together with Joshua if the vengeance between their families continued to exist.Therefore, Luna had given her a direct answer of no.Why, then, did the question change?Why would she not want to be together with Joshua if they were not enemies?They had been through so much together and even shared four children, so why would she not choose him?Bonnie rolled her eyes when she saw Luna's sh

    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. He had tears on his face as well.She bit her lips and reached out to wipe his tears. "A—Are these tears…yours or his?

    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
