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

Joshua tucked his phone away and fixed his gaze on Luna's face. "Maybe he's acting out because he feels responsible for her death."Think about this: You hadn't been fond of Cheryl when she was still alive either, but after she died, you couldn't help feeling sorry for her, even though you'd been blamed for her murder too."The same goes for Heather. When Heather died in front of you, you held her hand like you were best friends, but when she was still alive, you two hadn't been able to stand each other at all."Luna fell silent upon hearing this.Joshua…was right.However, even if Theo had felt sorry for Roanne's demise, it did not seem reasonable of him to cut off his friends and break up with his girlfriend because of her, right?Theo was too irrational.All of a sudden, Luna's phone rang. She furrowed her brows and glanced at the caller ID.It was Nathan, Theo's father.A bad feeling arose in her heart when she saw this name.Why was Nathan calling her all of a sudden?I

Joshua furrowed his brows and clutched the steering wheel tightly in his hands. "I guess we have to find Charlotte as soon as we can."He sighed and added, "My thought is that Theo doesn't really want to marry Roanne because he loves her, but because…"He narrowed his eyes. "Because he feels guilty for her death. He thinks that he played an undeniable role in Roanne's death, and thus he's doing all he can to make it up to her so that he'll be less burdened by his grief."This was why he broke up with Rachel, and I'm guessing this is the same reason he plans to marry Roanne."Luna bit her lip and lifted her head to stare at Joshua, still gripping her phone tightly. "Does this mean that if we find Charlotte as soon as we can and force her to admit her mistake and take responsibility for Roanne's murder…Theo's guilt may be lessened?"Joshua nodded and replied in a low voice, "That seems to be the way to go, logically speaking."Luna closed her eyes and sighed.She knew what Joshua

It was that same instance that had caused Rosalyn's condition to deteriorate and even lose her will to survive.If… If Quentin had been the one who told her about Sirius' involvement in Lucy's death, it would have likely caused her to be devastated and almost lose her life that way.However, on second thought, Luna shook her head and chased this thought out of her mind.Rosalyn had already said that Sirius had died more than 20 years ago, whereas Quentin was still alive.Besides, while watching the video of Lucy's death, not only were Sirius and Larry both in the clip but from certain angles, Luna and Joshua could clearly see Quentin at the scene as well.If Quentin and Sirius were the same people, they could not have appeared in the same place at the same time.However, if Quentin was not Sirius…then who was he?Luna could feel a headache coming on, so she closed her eyes, held her hand up to her forehead, and decided not to think about this anymore.All of a sudden, her phone

Meanwhile, in the Quinn Mansion's underground prison, Charlotte was lying on the bed, staring at the man standing before her with a look of repulse and contempt. "Are you going to let me live in this shithole?"As she said this, she started munching on some almonds in a bowl next to her and gave the man a once-over. "Sirius—oh, wait, you're called Quentin now."I thought that as the master of the Quinn family, you'd have plenty of power and influence over people, but it seems that I overestimated you."She tossed a few nuts against the man and added, "I haven't lived in such a shitty place for more than ten years now, ever since I was taken from the orphanage by Jim. How can you treat your own daughter like this?"Quentin narrowed his eyes when he heard this.He shot Charlotte a murderous glare and said coldly, "What the fuck do you want? Do you expect me to bring you home and declare that you're my daughter?"You're a fucking murderer, Charlotte, a fugitive now! Even though the

She, Charlotte, was his daughter, and his only daughter at that. He would protect her no matter what!Charlotte curled her lips into a smirk and repeated gleefully, "I said that you're an even bigger monster than I am, Quentin."Her triumphant smirk was nothing but a threat to Quentin.Quentin narrowed his eyes, lunged forward, and wrapped his hand around her throat, lifting her from the ground by her neck. "Charlotte, there's plenty of things that I choose to let go of simply because I know your mother never taught you any better when you were young, but some things aren't supposed to be said."He stared at Charlotte with a gaze so cold there was not even a hint of emotion a father was supposed to have toward his child in it. "Do you understand?""Ack!" Charlotte coughed. "I…I understand…" Her entire face had turned scarlet from the lack of oxygen, looking as though she would die at any moment.She struggled against his grip and begged for his mercy, "I…I'm sorry, Quen—no…Father

"I honestly have no idea what I'm doing here either."As soon as she saw Jim, Bonnie suddenly felt as though her heart could not even beat. She sported a bitter smile, then turned to glance at the two people behind Jim. "Mr. and Mrs. Landry, I don't think I came at the right time."Since Mr. Jim Landry doesn't want to see me, I should probably go wait outside. I'll come inside as soon as Mr. Jim is finished with his visit."With that, she turned and left without even giving the three of them any time to react.Jim furrowed his brows when he saw Bonnie leave but did not reply.Rosalyn almost leaped off the bed in alarm. "Jim, stop her! I invited her here to talk to her; please don't let her leave!"Jim frowned when he heard this, then turned to glance at Rosalyn. "Why did you want to talk to her?"Rosalyn rolled her eyes at him. "Just because you don't like her anymore doesn't mean I can't, right?"Charles quickly added, "That's right, Jim. Your mother has just woken up from her

Jim had always taken a liking to gentle, elegant, yet resilient women like Number-9 or Charlotte.Bonnie was gorgeous and alluring, not unlike a rose with thorns on its stem. Even though she was stunning, there seemed to be something else hidden underneath the surface—something venomous and potentially fatal.As he thought of this, he reached Bonnie's side and suddenly realized that at this moment, Bonnie was staring at a photo, enlarging it on her phone and scrutinizing it intently.It was a photo of a man.Jim lowered his head and glanced at the photo, trying to make out who it was. Then, his expression darkened.He had seen this man before.It was Sean, the new mechanic and driver that Joshua had hired.The same man who bore a striking resemblance to him and had been admitted to a hospital just the night before due to their fight.At this moment, Bonnie was scrutinizing every detail of Sean's photo, staring at his eyes one minute, then looking at his lips the next.A surge

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
