Joshua smiled. "Don't worry, I'm only going to Saigen City with you two. Once we're there, I'll be busy with my work while you both go sightseeing. No interference."Luna furrowed her brow and looked at Joshua, who was hugging her. "What are you busy doing there?"Joshua reached out and gently ruffled her head. "I have a business deal with Thomas."Luna was stunned before she recalled that at the studio when Thomas called her, he seemed to have vaguely mentioned his business deal with Joshua.Back then, Luna was filled with the reluctance of Riley and Yannie leaving with him, so she did not pay attention to that topic.Thinking back about this, she furrowed her brow and looked at Joshua. "What…deal did you two make?""You'll know once we're at Saigen City."Joshua lowered his head and kissed her forehead gently. "I was the one who suggested Thomas take Yannie and Riley along."Under Luna's stunned gaze, Joshua let out a sigh and slowly said, "Lulu, Riley and Yannie are going to
Hearing what Nellie said, Luna restrained herself from laughing while looking at Joshua, who also sported a small smile.He walked forward and squatted to hoist Nellie into his arms before striding into the house. When they were at the door, he turned to look back at Luna. "Come, let's go try Neil's cooking."Luna smiled and started to walk. "What about Nigel's cooking?""Lucas can have all of it." He turned around and entered the house with Nellie in his arms.The corner of Luna's lips curled up as she looked at the back of Joshua and Nellie. Then, she quickly chased after them.When they walked into the house, Lucas just got out of the washroom while rubbing his stomach.At that moment, Nellie felt rather guilty as she stared at his pale face. After all, she had started to get closer to him after spending time with him for more than a year.Thus, Nellie winked and looked at Joshua, then at Luna. "Daddy, Mommy, why don't I…eat Nigel's cooking on behalf of Uncle Lucas?" she aske
Luna did not take a single bite."Yes." Nigel curled up his lips and smiled while subconsciously looking at Joshua.Coincidentally, Joshua was looking at him, too. As they made eye contact, Joshua smiled as Nigel's eyes twinkled with what seemed to be mischief.Nigel was a smart kid; cooking was not a difficult task for him. He did not want Nellie and Neil to keep on bothering him to cook, so he added a few 'extras' to his dishes.Joshua knew all about Nigel's plan. It happened at the right time as Joshua wanted to give Lucas a lesson. Both of them worked together and decided on this immoral plan. From the looks of it, it was a successful plan, killing two birds with one stone.Lucas got his punishment, and no one else in the family would ever think about letting Nigel cook again in the future.Nigel, the little genius, could continue to eat Neil's cooking and drink the beverage Nellie made, while Nigel and Nellie would never let him step foot in the kitchen anymore.The mere th
Luna never expected this was what happened. She leaned on Joshua's back, stupefied and at a loss for words."Alright." Joshua smiled and grabbed her hand tightly. "You had a busy day, and it's time to rest. Although Lucas made a mistake, it's nothing worth fretting over. Before he became my assistant, he worked in the family and was quite close with Adrian. It was understandable for him to contact Adrian."Besides, Lucas has helped me a lot over these few years. Even if there's no merit, he also worked hard. This is the second time he made a mistake."Joshua could endure the first and second times Lucas made mistakes. Nonetheless, if Lucas made a mistake for the third time…He narrowed his eyes slightly. If there was a third time, he would have to consider if he should continue to keep Lucas by his side."Yeah." Luna understood what Joshua was thinking, so she nodded and let go of him. "I'll go rest now. You should sleep early too."She took a deep breath and turned to leave the
Just as Luna had predicted, she was busy for the next few days. She went out early in the morning and came back late at night, traveling between the house and her studio. She did not even have the time to go to Landry Mansion and visit Gwen.Luckily, there was still Bonnie. Since Bonnie was almost fully recovered, she could often go visit Gwen in the hospital and also take care of Rosalyn and Charles. Rosalyn had been urging Jim and Bonnie to get married, but no matter what she said, Jim and Bonnie did not bulge.The night before Luna and Joshua left Merchant City, Rosalyn cooked dinner and invited Luna and Joshua over to eat."Luna." Before Bonnie and Jim arrived, Rosalyn grabbed Luna's hand and complained, "No matter what I say, they won't listen. You are Bonnie's best friend, and Jim is willing to listen to you. Please persuade them for me. Your dad and I are getting old, and we'd like to see them finally get together as a married couple."Luna pursed her lips and hesitated for
Luna looked to the side and saw how serious Bonnie was. She wanted to say something but decided against it.After a while, she extended her hand and grabbed Bonnie's hand lightly. "I hope our wishes will all come true."She hoped Jim would recall his memory and hoped Bonnie could accept the idea of marriage soon.As for her… Luna did not dare hope that she would one day find her daughter."It will." Bonnie curled up her lips and looked at Luna with a smile. "Have a safe trip tomorrow. Jim and I will take good care of the three children for you and Joshua. Don't worry, and have a nice trip with Gwen."Bonnie exhaled deeply when she mentioned Gwen. She looked up at the sky. "Hopefully, Gwen will recover soon."Luna, too, raised her head, shifting in her seat as she leaned on the bench. She quietly sat with Bonnie and looked at the sky. The two women stayed in the garden and chatted until the next morning.At 10 a.m., Joshua carried the tired Luna to the airport. Gwen, who let her
"From what I'm seeing now, it doesn't seem like you need my help to cheer you up anymore."Gwen managed to compose herself gracefully. No one knew why, but her condition progressively got better after Luna and Bonnie knew Luke had passed away. Over the past month, she had been complaining about Luke. She said Luke was a heartless jerk for not visiting her. Nonetheless, after Luna knew Luke had passed away, she never heard Gwen say that anymore.It was as though Gwen knew why Luke never came back when no one told her the reason, so she could not have known about this either. Based on her personality, she would not be so calm if she found out.Having thought that, Luna looked at the grinning Gwen. The only reason she could think that made Gwen have these changes was because of Luke's heart.Maybe…Luke did not want Gwen to be so sad and upset, so Gwen recovered very well."Alright, sleep well. I'll bring you some good food when I come back at night." Gwen did not know what Luna was t
That was Luke's voice!At that moment, Gwen felt like the blood in her body froze as she felt herself trembling. This was the voice that appeared in her dream every night, and she even thought she was hallucinating when she heard it again.The man behind her started to talk again, "But it's fine if you don't like it. We can shop at other places."Gwen felt like her blood started to rush up her brain. Tears started to roll in her eyes. She bit her lip and got on her feet.There was a couple leaving behind her. The man had his arms around the woman as they left the shop.That figure…did not look like Luke.Nevertheless, she rushed out the door and, not caring about how she would look, blocked the couple from leaving like she was crazy, arms spread wide open."Who are you?" The woman furrowed her brow as she looked at Gwen with a puzzled look.The man gently pulled the woman into his arms and looked at Gwen warily. "Is there anything I can help you with?"That voice. It was not t
