"Despite knowing this, you still put Ms. Larson in danger."Therefore, even though Charlotte should take responsibility for inflicting harm on Ms. Larson, she shouldn't take the full blame."Finally, Jim's cold stare zoned in on Luna's face and enunciated carefully, "As the mastermind of this elaborate scheme, Luna should take at least part of the blame for what happened."Luna narrowed her eyes and lifted her head to meet Jim's gaze.The look in his eyes was still calm and unfazed as always, but instead of the tender expression one would adopt when looking at their sibling, Jim's eyes were etched with hatred and resentment.Luke crossed his arms in front of his chest and said, "What if I told you I don't care about all that happened before this?"Charlotte was the one who shoved Gwen onto the stove when she tried to retrieve the kettle just now, so the only thing I want to know is how you're planning to punish Charlotte for what she did.""Do you think I will punish the woman I
Bonnie had been standing outside the pantry for a while.After Roanne brought her to Mickey to fix her broken finger, Bonnie rushed here as soon as she was done.She was still worried about Gwen, after all.Bonnie and Luna both knew the lengths that Charlotte was willing to go to just to get what she wanted, and Gwen, on the other hand, had been suffering from ill health for quite some time.When Gwen first suggested the idea of disguising herself and Bonnie to trick Charlotte, both Bonnie and Luna were against this idea.However, because Gwen had insisted, and even Luke had agreed, the two of them finally relented.Despite this, Bonnie was still worried that Charlotte would, in a way, harm Gwen. Therefore, as soon as she was done, she sprinted toward the pantry without even thinking twice about her condition.However, she never thought that…The first thing she would see when she arrived was the scene of Jim intentionally hurting himself to save Charlotte.She stared dazedly
"What's wrong?"Gwen sniffed and quickly shifted her gaze away, unwilling to meet Luke's gaze. "I just suddenly remembered something."To you, I'm not someone worthy of your time, too, so why do you still want to keep me?"Luke's frown grew even deeper upon hearing Gwen's words.A split second later, he pulled Gwen closer to his body so forcefully that it was as though he would break her like a porcelain doll. "You're worth it; you're the only thing in my life that's worth my time."Gwen closed her eyes as she let the feeling of being suffocated by Luke's embrace envelope her.Was she?Luke had said before that anyone he did not love was unworthy of his time.At this moment, Gwen had finally confirmed a thought she had been having for a while.She did not love Luke.Not even a little bit."Are you okay, Jim?"Meanwhile, inside the pantry, Charlotte leaped forward to clutch Jim's blistered palm and sobbed, "I'll ask the butler to summon a doctor right now! Hold on, Jim!"Wi
"Hello, is this Ms. Luna?" a strange, unfamiliar voice rang out from the other end of the line.Luna furrowed her brows and quickly answered, "Yes, speaking, and you are…""My name is Sean Wheeler, and I'm a car mechanic." The man's voice sounded rich and deep as he said, "Long story short, I came across a woman passed out on the side of the road when I took out the trash just now."She had no phone or identification on her, but I noticed that she seemed pretty ill, so I sent her to the nearest clinic. After she woke up, she gave me this number and told me to contact you."She told me her last name is Craig. Can you come pick her up?"There was a hint of embarrassment in the man's voice as he explained, "I didn't bring any money out with me, so I couldn't pay for her treatment. Can you bring some cash with you to pay the doctor too?"Luna's entire face lit up when she heard this.After enquiring about the clinic's address, Luna stormed out the door without even bothering to chan
Except…The only thing Luna seemed to have done for him was giving birth to a daughter whom she had lost just mere minutes after her birth and could not track down, even until at present time.As soon as she thought of this, Luna clutched the jade ring inside her coat pocket tightly.This was the ring she had gotten from Jim.As soon as she returned to Joshua's house after picking up Bonnie, she would be able to help Joshua uncover the truth of his Aunt Lucy's death…Just as Luna was immersed in her thoughts, the car had already arrived at the clinic near the factory Sean Wheeler worked at.He had not been lying when he told her how rundown the clinic was.Joshua parked the car, and as soon as the car screeched to a halt, Luna flung the door open and stormed into the clinic. "Bonnie!""I'm here."The clinic was astonishingly small, with only a chair, a small bed, and a tiny table for the doctor to do his work inside it.At this moment, Bonnie was lying on the bed, her face pa
"I can't hide anything from you after all." Bonnie smiled bitterly. "I didn't expect you'd come, and if Luna had come to pick me up alone, I would've been able to hide this from her, but…"Bonnie let out a small sigh.Joshua was so sharp and observant that just one glance at her was enough to convince him that something was different about her.Bonnie knew that if she did not admit the truth, Joshua would still have another way of finding out.Therefore, there was no point in hiding the truth.After letting out another sigh, Bonnie propped herself up on the bed weakly.She extended her pale, almost colorless hand to take a piece of paper out of her pocket.As soon as she saw this, a bad feeling crept into Luna's heart.She stormed forward and snatched the paper out of Bonnie's hands.As soon as she laid eyes on the neatly printed words on the page, Luna felt as though she had been struck by lightning, and she took a small step back in shock. "Bonnie, you…""I underwent an abo
She and Bonnie were very well aware of that fact already!However…Luna knew that it was too hard for Bonnie to continue waiting for Jim anymore.Not everyone could go through the pain of being abandoned by a loved one.Bonnie had already been abandoned by Jason once in the past. With that traumatizing experience, Luna did not think it was wrong of her to choose a more rational option that prioritized herself more."I'm telling the truth." Joshua continued to stare intently at Bonnie. "Ask yourself this; how much do you love the Jim that was with you before he lost his memories? How can you leave him and get rid of your child, knowing that he's just sick and out of his mind now? How can you be certain that Jim will never wake up from this one day? What if he does? How do you think he'll react if he regains his memories one day and finds out about what you did?"Bonnie could not help gripping the surgery consent form tighter when she heard Joshua's words. She bit her lip and stare
"You—"Bonnie could not help letting out a shriek of surprise as she was lifted off the bed without warning.However, Sean held her even closer against his body as he replied reassuringly, "Don't worry, I've got you."Bonnie bit her lip and immediately wrapped her arms around his neck, trying to stop herself from falling.Sean turned and strode out of the room, carrying Bonnie in this amorous position all the way to the car.Luna remained motionless, staring in disbelief at the scene before her.She had simply asked Sean to help her bring Bonnie out to the car, but she did not expect him to carry her out.Joshua glanced calmly at a baffled Luna and remarked, "Well, you were the one who asked him to help."With that, he turned and strode out of the room.Luna stared dazedly as Sean carefully lowered Bonnie into the backseat of Joshua's car in the distance.Even though it seemed a little unfair to Jim, for some reason…she could not help thinking that these two would make an ado
