Chapter 2086

Author: Inked Snow
Rosalyn could not help chuckling as she recalled this incident. "Maybe it was all just a figment of my imagination. Sirius was just a kind and gentle person, so how could he possibly have done anything to hurt Lucy?"

With that, she instinctively turned to glance at Charles.

Initially, she thought that Charles would be upset at the mention of Lucy's passing, but to her surprise…

Charles curled his lips into a small smile when he heard this. "I agree; I don't think Sirius could've done something like that."

Then, he shot Rosalyn an earnest glance and said, "Besides, I don't want Lucy's death to have had something to do with you or the people around you."

He had been with Rosalyn for more than 20 years, and he knew of the tremendous sacrifices she had made for him.

At this moment, he could finally admit, 20 years after Lucy's death, that he had fallen for Rosalyn.

He did not want Lucy's death to have had anything to do with Rosalyn.

Even though he constantly doubted himself for be

    "People say that only wives who no longer care don't get jealous of other women, so does this mean you don't love me anymore, Mrs. Lynch?"Luna rolled her eyes at him. "Since when did you become so petty, Joshua Lynch?"She chose to believe him because of what they had gone through, so how dare he even say something like this?Would it make him happy for her to doubt him?Joshua could not help smiling when he heard this.He lifted her chin and was about to kiss her when someone next to them let out an awkward cough. "Um…"Caleb's hand was curled into a fist next to his mouth, feigning a cough. He said rather sheepishly, "I'm sorry; have I come at the wrong time?"A glimmer of anger shot through Joshua's eyes.Luna quickly pushed him away and turned to smile awkwardly at Caleb. "No, not at all."Joshua turned to shoot Caleb a cold glance, suppressing the annoyance in his heart. "Is there something wrong?"Caleb curled his lips into a small smile. "Of course there is. why would

    "Alright, I'll do it."Theo let out a sigh and reached out to hug Roanne."Roanne." Theo's voice was as soft as a feather. "I don't know what would've happened to you if you hadn't met me, but all I know is that if it weren't for me, you wouldn't have ended up like this, and you wouldn't have gone through this suffering."Theo's voice began to choke as he held Roanne's limp body close to him. "Roanne, I never thought things would end up like this…"He had simply agreed to Joshua's request when he asked him to bring Roanne over to meet Joshua.He had just tried to help Joshua and Luna convince Roanne to wash her hands of Charlotte before it was too late.Theo never thought that his small actions would have had such a huge impact and even ended up costing Roanne her life!The memory of how Charlotte stabbed Roanne in her abdomen repeatedly haunted him like a vivid ghost.Theo let out an exhale and cupped Roanne's face in his hands as tears slid down his cheeks. "It's all my fault

    Theo suddenly felt the weight in his arms lighten, and Roanne's head tilted limply to one side.Theo was frozen in shock as though he had been struck by lightning. He lowered his head to stare at Roanne in horror. "Roanne?""She's dead," a cold female voice rang out from the direction of the door, though it was graced with elegance and intellect.That voice…Theo lifted his head in surprise and immediately caught sight of Rachel standing at the door.She was dressed in a light green shirt and white trousers that made her look smart, successful, and elegant.When she saw Theo looking at her, she took out her phone to contact the hospital staff and walked slowly over to him.As soon as Theo saw her, all the longing and adoration he had for her in the past dissipated and was replaced by worry toward Roanne.He immediately lunged forward to grab Rachel's arm. "You must have some way of saving her, right? She just suffered a few knife wounds in her abdomen; how could she have died j

    Rachel knew that it was petty of her to get jealous over a dead woman, but she could not find a way to get past it.She could not accept the fact that Theo had confessed his love toward her while being involved with another woman all this while.Not only that, but she had never even known about this woman's existence until this day.If she had not followed Caleb to escort Rosalyn and Charles back to Merchant City, she probably would have never found out the truth; that the man who claimed to love her had held another woman on her deathbed and even kissed her just seconds before her death."Rachel." Theo's brows were furrowed as he held a limp, no-longer-breathing Roanne. "She's had a hard life. Are you really going to argue with me about this over her dead body?"His pity and guilt toward Roanne had surpassed all of his other emotions, and as he held Roanne's body close to him, he could not understand why Rachel was behaving so petty and holding this against him.Could she not wa

    Luna could tell that something was not right with Rachel, but since she was not that familiar with Rachel, she did not dare to say anything to her.Caleb shot Rachel another helpless glance as she stormed off, then entered the room with Luna and Joshua.Inside, Theo was tidying and straightening Roanne's clothes while a doctor was checking all of Roanne's vital signs.When he heard the footsteps behind him, Theo thought it was Rachel who had returned and proceeded to declare without even turning around, "Rachel, I always thought that you'd be far more mature and level-headed in a situation like this, seeing as you're older than me."I never thought that the only thing on your mind as you watched a woman die before your eyes would be jealousy toward her."I don't think this is working out, so—""So you want to dump her?" Caleb interjected coldly before Theo could even finish his sentence.He furrowed his brows and scowled at Theo. "Do you even know how happy she was last night as

    Luna gasped.She could understand Theo's anger at this moment, but she never thought he would put the blame on her and Joshua.If Joshua had indeed planned to use Theo to drive a wedge between Roanne and Charlotte, did it mean that he had known since the start that Roanne would die?Roanne's death had been an accident; who would have thought Charlotte would secretly bring a weapon with her and show no mercy toward the 'sister' that had been with her for more than ten years?Besides…did this mean that if Joshua had not plotted Theo and Roanne's encounter, she would not have betrayed Charlotte and been murdered in the end?Everything that happened from the moment Theo first met Roanne until her demise had been an accident with no correlation at all.However, Theo was so submerged in his grief at this moment that he blamed Joshua for all of this!"Theo, please calm down." Joshua furrowed his brows and said in a cold, emotionless tone, "I'll ask Lucas to take care of Roanne's affair

    "You're right; I was responsible for Roanne's death."Even though I had initially wanted to use her as a spy that I could plant by Jim's side to keep an eye on Charlotte, there's no denying that I had played a role in her death."Therefore, I'll do my best to find Charlotte and make her pay for this."Then, he turned and walked away, hand-in-hand with Luna.Luna bit her lip and glanced at Theo somewhat reluctantly.She had always thought of Theo as a calm, level-headed person, so how did he suddenly become such an illogical, irrational person because of Roanne?Luna was about to say something when Joshua patted her shoulder, signaling her not to speak.She bit her lip but did not say anything and instead turned to follow Joshua.Seeing that both Joshua and Luna were leaving, Caleb stood at the door in a stupor, unsure of what to do.He fell silent, then shot Theo a meaningful glance. "Are you sure you want to give up on someone like Rachel because of this woman?"Theo replied

    Caleb was surprised that Rachel could have been so calm in all of this.Even Theo was a little stunned by this. He was silent for a short while before finally saying in a hoarse voice, "There's no need for that. I'll find her a burial place myself, and I'll pay you back for the funeral service out of my pocket too."Then, he let out a sigh as he glanced at Rachel. "I hadn't wanted you to pay me back at all for the portrait I painted of you; I had done that of my own accord."Please, keep it as a gift from me.""No need," Rachel interrupted him curtly. "I never accept gifts from strangers. You should know that whenever I receive gifts from people I don't know, I'd either throw them away or pay them back for their kindness."However, because the paintings are all of me, I don't intend on throwing them away, so I want to pay you back for your effort."She yawned and continued impassively, "Please don't reject my offer anymore, Mr. Allen. Otherwise, it'll put me in a very difficult p

    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.

    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
