"Even… Even if it means I can only see him from afar."Seeing how determined Bonnie was, Luna bit her lip, unsure of what to say."Let her go." All of a sudden, a voice rang out from the stairs.The two women in the kitchen lifted their heads to gaze in the direction of the voice—Joshua, dressed entirely in black, strode down the stairs elegantly and said, "Bonnie won't be able to get the rest she deserves anyway if she doesn't get to see Jim, but…"Joshua turned and shot Bonnie a stern glance. "You must promise Luna that when following her to Landry Mansion, you have to pretend to be a servant, and you're not allowed to talk to Jim or even meet him privately."You can't let him know that you're pregnant with his child."Joshua walked down the final step, strode into the living room, and plopped down on the sofa. "I managed to get an idea of the current situation from Roanne just now."As of now, Jim has not only lost his memories, but his mind is now being controlled by Charl
The color drained from Bonnie's face when she heard Luna's words.She bit her lip and lowered her head to stare at her finger, unsure of what to do.Bonnie knew that Joshua's arrangement was the best for both her and her baby. Even she, too, had to agree that Joshua's plan was the best option she had at the moment.To return to Banyan City, where Jude would be able to help her take care of Craig Group as she got the rest she needed and waited for the child to be born…This was the best option she had to ensure that in eight months, the baby would be born smoothly.No matter how powerful Charlotte and Jim were, they would not be able to follow her to Banyan City.However, Luna's words were like a rude awakening.If she left Merchant City for eight months…Would Jim still be able to remember her after so long?Bonnie was unsure of the answer, and she was afraid to take the risk.She did not want to lose Jim; she did not want him to forget her.Seeing that Bonnie was hesitating
"She's quite beautiful, and she seems like an intelligent woman."Theo's face blushed scarlet as he replied, "Yes, she's indeed an extraordinary woman."I used to think she was just an outstanding doctor, but the more I got to know about her past, the more I admire her."As he said this, he stared off into the distance, engrossed in his memories of Dr. Rachel. "Initially, I thought that she must've grown up in a family of doctors to become such an exceptional one, but after that, I found out that she was an orphan and had grown up in an orphanage. Everything she has now is a result of her hard work and determination…"Bonnie nodded in agreement. "Don't underestimate kids that grow up in orphanages; they can be surprisingly resilient."With that, she pointed at herself and added, "Actually, I had grown up in an orphanage myself."Theo could not help furrowing his brows when he heard this. A split second later, he turned and stared at Bonnie in shock. "But aren't you…the heiress to
Bonnie took the paper from him, frowning.It was clearly written there that Roanne had spent the first ten years of her life at Love and Kindness Children's Home, but…Bonnie could not recall anything about her at all.There was a photo of a young Roanne included with the paper, but even after staring at it, Bonnie could not recognize this girl.She fell deep into her thoughts for a long time, until eventually, her head started to hurt from all the concentration. Even then, alas, she could not recall whether she had met Roanne before.Truth be told, she had only a vague memory of her childhood life.The accident she had suffered six years ago not only wiped her memory of her child but also caused almost irreparable damage to her brain.Even though she had regained her memories of everything that happened before the accident six years ago, she still could not remember anything about her childhood.The only thing she remembered was that she had met an older boy at the orphanage,
"I always thought only a cheerful person like you would like the color red. Never have I ever thought that someone as depressing as Charlotte would like that color, too."After all, red was a happy, passionate color, and Charlotte was not even close to either of these adjectives.Joshua was not the only person who thought this; everyone else seemed to have agreed with this notion.Christopher had even joked about this before, saying that maybe Jim had mistaken someone else as Charlotte.Christopher had said that according to a book he had read about color psychology, a person would gravitate toward a color corresponding to their personality. This theory was backed by plenty of scientific evidence that supported it.At that time, Joshua had not believed Christopher when he said this, and he even thought he had lost his mind after reading too many books.How could a person's favorite color possibly represent their personality?However, after meeting Charlotte for the first time, h
"Was I right?" Joshua curled his lips into a smirk as he watched the color drain from Bonnie's face.He raised his brows and glanced at Luna, who was still engrossed in her reading on the sofa. "Come out for a moment."Luna's train of thought was disrupted by Joshua. She furrowed her brows and shot him a displeased look. "I have less than an hour left!"She had yet to finish reading through everything, so why was Joshua disturbing her?Seeing how frustrated Luna was, Joshua curled his lips into a smirk and leaned against the doorframe elegantly. "Well, if you don't want to find out how your brother and future sister-in-law met, then suit yourself and stay inside."Luna could not help frowning when she heard this. "Bonnie and my brother met through me, don't you remember?"She still remembered that the first time Jim and Bonnie met was in Banyan City.At that time, Aura had burnt down Blue Bay Villa, and when Luna and Bonnie returned to the ruins to recover her belongings, they h
As soon as she thought of this, Luna sniffed and stood up. Then, she walked over to Joshua and grabbed hold of his hands. "Don't worry; I will definitely try my best. Also…"She lowered her head to gaze at his hands. "I will try my best to find out what happened to your Aunt Lucy and uncover the truth."A surge of warmth spread through Joshua's heart when he heard this.He reached out and pulled Luna into his embrace. "None of this is important to me right now."The most important thing is that if Charlotte and Jim do anything bad to you later at Landry Mansion…"You shouldn't hold back because he's your brother. Remember, if he tries to hurt you, you have to retaliate."Then, you have to get out of there immediately and never get near him again."Joshua took a whiff of Luna's fragrant-smelling hair as he hugged her. "Nothing matters more to me than your safety."Luna nodded as she felt the reassuring warmth of Joshua's body against hers. "I will."Not only had Jim lost his me
Luna and Joshua exchanged glances.The two of them knew very well that Bonnie would make this decision.She had been reluctant to leave Merchant City in the first place, and after she had found out the truth of her and Jim's first encounter during their childhood, it was impossible to convince her to leave.Therefore, Luna nodded and said, "Alright, then. You can stay here with us and help us regain Jim's memories."Bonnie let out a bitter chuckle and nodded. "Let's hope all goes well."With that, she turned and went upstairs to her room. "I'll go change."Ten minutes later, she reappeared, dressed in thick clothing and wearing a cap and mask. Not a single inch of her skin was in sight.Seeing Luna's surprised look, Bonnie chuckled and tipped her cap even lower to obscure her face. "I'm not entirely sure yet if Jim is indeed the boy I met when I was young, and I'm not certain whether Charlotte had stolen my identity to be together with Jim after I left the orphanage."Therefore
