"I believe you."

"Luna, Joshua!" Just as the two of them were immersed in their conversation, Charles lifted his head to hand Rosalyn the peeled apple and, in doing so, caught sight of them.

A trace of a smile spread across his face as he called out, "When did you guys arrive? Why aren't you coming inside to greet us? How come you're hiding in a corner like young lovers?"

Rosalyn, too, lifted her head to glance in her direction when she heard this. She grinned when she caught sight of her daughter and son-in-law in each other's arms. "Alright, we all know how sweet you two are, so come join us now!"

Blushing, Luna quickly removed Joshua's arms from her waist and headed in Rosalyn and Charles' direction.

However, she had just taken two steps when Joshua's hand clasped around hers. He quickly overtook her and dragged her along behind him as he strode into the backyard. "Luna saw the two of you enjoying your time together, so she didn't want to intrude. Why else would we not want to

    Everyone fell silent upon hearing this.Luna, Joshua, and even Charles stared at Rosalyn with wide eyes.Finally, Joshua was the first to regain his composure. "How…could Nikki have managed to get her hands on a drug you invented?"Logically speaking, neither Rosalyn nor Charles had even known of Lucy being alive until the day before, so how could they know who Nikki was, much less allow Nikki to obtain a drug that Rosalyn formulated?How could Nikki have gotten her hands on this?"I used to have a friend…" Rosalyn sighed and began to explain, "This happened a long, long time ago, but one day, one of my doctor-friends got in touch with me and told me he had a patient who was so devastated about her husband's passing that she suffered a miscarriage."Even though this patient of his had adopted a child not long after, she was depressed for a long time and kept wanting to take her life."Besides that, at one point, her health began to deteriorate, so she became even more determined

    This has been a recurring theme in the past and even in the present.In the past, Charles had been so devastated by Lucy's 'death' that he neglected his career when the fate of Landry Group was in his hands.Rosalyn was the one who had supported the weight of the family business on her shoulders, and while she was doing this, she had been forced to face Granny Lynch's wrath and even had to spend most of her spare time formulating the drug to keep Charles' moods stable.While he was in his psychotic state, Charles never understood her and instead thought of her as a stupid imbecile who had to stick her nose into everyone else's business.However, by the time he finally calmed down, he could not help feeling guilty about how he had treated her.If it were not for Rosalyn…neither he nor the Landry family would be where they were at this day.He owed her too much.Therefore, he could not bear to see her blaming herself for other people's mistakes and could not bear to see her worryi

    Rosalyn let out another sigh.If she had not chosen to lie to Jim about Bonnie having only seven days left to live, he would not have summoned Christopher back to Merchant City out of desperation.If Christopher had not returned, he would not have gone crazy, and Sean would not have gotten hurt as a result.This was all her fault.She had been too arrogant, thinking that she could control everything and make Jim realize his true feelings toward Bonnie.However, she had neglected to consider that Jim had other ways of dealing with things that were different from her own.Not only that, but she never thought Christopher would ignore her advice and return to Merchant City without notifying anyone and even trigger a psychotic episode."You were just trying to help," Joshua sighed and tried to reassure Rosalyn, seeing that she was starting to feel guilty once more. "Things had gotten out of hand, and it wasn't your fault at all. Thankfully, we managed to gain control of the situation

    "Uncle Christopher would never, ever hurt you, so why don't we go visit him together? He'll never try to hurt you with me there.""But I'm scared…" June was immersed in fits of sobs, her mind unable to shake off the image of Christopher choking her and demanding to know who had injured her.She was terrified of her father.This was not the man she called her father! The glimmer in his eyes had looked so malicious and deranged that she could not help thinking this was an entirely different person altogether!She did not dare to see or face this man once more, yet Harvey was telling her that Uncle Joshua and Aunt Luna wanted to bring her to visit him!She did not want to go!This man was not her father; he was a demon, a monster!"Don't be unreasonable, June. You're already six years old and are a big girl now, so you can't be so disobedient like this." Harvey gently patted her back as though he was an adult trying to reassure a child. "Don't worry. He's not a monster, and he won'

    It had never crossed Luna's mind that Harvey would say such a thing to her in front of June.She was taken aback for a moment, and she then shook her head helplessly. "Harvey, this isn't the time for you to act on impulse. Uncle Christopher's situation is far more serious than you think. If you go to him instead of June, he may just lunge at you."Having said that, Luna looked in the direction where June was standing and spotted June looking at her, visibly shaken. Then, she sighed. "It's alright; neither of you needs to go. I'll bring the cauliflower herb soup Nellie cooked to him and try calming him."Everything would be worth it if Christopher would regain his sanity after tasting the soup Nellie had cooked. Should it fail, however…then it would be useless even if Luna brought Nellie over.She squatted and patted Harvey's shoulder. "Wait for my news."Luna then turned to take the soup from Nellie and left the house, her gait showing her determination.Joshua sighed as he watch

    "After Uncle Jim lost his memory, he thought that Aunt Bonnie was a cunning woman without any evidence. He even said that all the things Aunt Bonnie did were to trick him."Nigel pushed his glasses upward the bridge of his nose. "Harvey has inherited this trait from Uncle Jim."Looking at how calm and mature her brother was, Nellie ran upstairs, biting her lip. "Nigel, Nigel! Since you're very, very talented, can you find out if Aunt Bonnie is Number-9?"Nigel passed the documents to Nellie and raised his head to look at the far distance. "If you can get Nigel to bake more cake for me, I can get more information for you."This took Nellie aback for a few seconds before she burst into laughter. "Deal. I'll go find him now!"Neil's culinary skills had improved a great deal, and at times, the food he made tasted far better than what they had from restaurants. Both Nellie and Nigel had been craving a particular cake Neil had baked last time ever since they had a taste, but it was thei

    Luna's heart skipped a beat when she saw how unforgiving Christopher was as he looked at her.Joshua immediately pulled her toward him. "Don't be afraid." He used his arms to protect Luna and raised his head to look at Christopher through the bars with stone-cold eyes."Why can't Luna visit you? Regardless of what happened, Rosalyn raised you since you were a kid. Her body is too weak to come to visit you, so Luna is here on her behalf."What's wrong? From what I can tell, you don't seem to welcome her."Christopher sneered and glared at Luna, his eyes burning with the intent to kill. "You're right; I don't welcome her. I don't welcome any jinxes here!"Luna's forehead creased at this. 'I'm a jinx?'"Yes, you are a jinx!" Christopher had probably read Luna's mind as he snapped, "Think of all the things you've done. Do you need me to list it for you?"Last year, when you returned to Banyan City, the Landry family had become Joshua's main target, and they nearly declared bankruptc

    It tasted just like the cauliflower herb soup June always cooked for him to drink!The familiar taste brought some sense back to Christopher. He furrowed his brows and finished the soup. Finally, he put down the container reluctantly when it was finally empty. "Is this all you got?""We got more here." As Christopher's emotion was finally less cynical, Joshua took a deep breath and added, "There are some questions I'd like to ask you. If you want more soup, you need to answer them.""Deal," agreed Christopher as he pursed his lips. He then took a look at Luna, who looked visibly pale, cautiously. He tried to think of the right words to apologize to Luna, albeit he could not form any words to speak."You weren't you. Luna understands you didn't really mean what you said," said Joshua lightly with a frown after reading Christopher's mind based on his expression.Luna, finally realizing why Christopher had been staring at her, sighed. "I'm not a narrow-minded person. I know you didn'

    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
