Vanessa had just sent Willow away when Luna's phone rang. Both of them sat on the chair and prayed that Anne was alright while looking in the direction where Willow left.

It was John calling Luna's phone.

"Is everything alright?" Once the call connected, Luna anxiously asked, "Did you find Anne?"

"Yes." John's voice sounded…cold on the other end of the line. "Anne is dead."

Luna's blood froze upon hearing this information. She grasped the phone so tightly that her hand shivered. Tears poured out of her eyes, and her voice quivered as she said, "John, is…this some kind of joke?"

"Do you think I'd make such a joke with you?" snarled John. "When we arrived at the hospital, the doctor said Anne had lost too much blood and that we were too late. There was no use saving her anymore.

"Remember this, Luna: Anne's death is on you."

If Luna and Joshua did not choose to return, and if Luna did not insist on going shopping…

If Luna was not curious about what Jacqueline and James talked abo

So…the police just let Willow walk out of the place without arresting her? She has now committed murder. They should have all the evidence they need to convict her.

    Luna shivered violently when she heard the busy dial tone from the phone.Thump! The phone fell to the ground.The startled Vanessa quickly came over to catch Luna from falling. "What's wrong?""I…" Luna turned to look at Vanessa, and her tears started to fall. "I killed Anne."I killed Anne…"Had she not been so uselessly bored with staying in the small place with Joshua, and had she not asked Anne to go shopping with her, this accident would not have happened. If she stopped Anne before she attempted to eavesdrop on Jacqueline and James' conversation, none of this would have happened.She was the one who killed Anne. She killed her best friend—a very important friend.She bit her lip. A wave of sadness hit her. Her vision darkened before she passed out.Vanessa supported Luna's body and furrowed her brow vehemently. The police and storekeeper hurried and called 911. Later, they helped Vanessa to lay Luna on the floor by the side.Since Vanessa could not unlock Luna's phone,

    Luna did not regain consciousness even when Joshua arrived at the hospital.He frowned and looked at Vanessa, who was standing at the door. "What happened?"Vanessa paused before she went through what happened and told the same things she told Jude."I'm not asking about this." Joshua's brow tightened. "I'm asking why you girls made that decision."Vanessa paused, and her face paled. "At that time, we thought…we just needed to lure Willow away and go save Anne."Joshua furrowed his brow. "Why didn't you two think before you decided that? If the mission James gave Willow is to kill Anne, what do you think she'd do to avoid Anne from escaping when you lure Willow away?"Vanessa lowered her head quietly after listening to what Joshua said. "She'd…kill Anne to stop her from escaping."She never thought of that. For the last 20 years, she had lived in a very simple world, having never experienced this sort of calamity. That was why Vanessa thought the reason Willow kidnapped Anne was

    Joshua's brow furrowed vehemently at what Jude said. "Didn't you say you're not interested in Ms. Chance?"'Why is Jude so eager to protect Vanessa? It's like they're closer than a real couple.' he thought.Jude felt like something was choking him. Rubbing his neck, he replied, "I'm just being reasonable. You can't possibly blame everything on Vanessa just because she was kind enough to help. Maybe she is partly responsible, but the real villains are those people who killed Anne."He frowned and looked at Vanessa, who, in her shock, touched his back. "Joshua's not calm now. Don't mind what he said."He then grabbed her hand. "Let's go."He strode outside the hospital while holding her hand.Joshua stood still as he squinted, staring at Jude and Vanessa's retreating forms. When both of them were out of sight and were nowhere to be seen in the hallway, he turned and entered the hospital.He asked the doctor with a soft voice, "How's she doing?""Her emotions dropped severely in a

    "Yeah, you were too tired." Joshua looked at the time. "Wait here. I'll go talk to the doctor and have you discharged."Luna paused and answered, "Alright. And hurry up. Isn't Adrian's wedding starting at eight tonight?"They only had three hours left.Joshua paused and nodded. "Okay."He turned around and left the ward.…In the doctor's office."Based on what you said, Mrs. Lynch passed out after she was informed of her best friend's death, and she can't remember anything after she woke up…"The doctor looked at him and sighed deeply. "She's having a stress response after being traumatized. The news of her best friend's death was too shocking to her, so her brain decided to remove this memory after she passed out."The doctor wrote a few words on the chart. "Nonetheless, this is just temporary and won't last for a long time. Typically, she should have her memory back within seven days unless she's triggered again within these seven days. For example, someone emphasizing to h

    "Don't worry."Frowning, Joshua approached Luna and hugged her to ease her nerves. "The wedding is starting in less than three hours, so we'll need to head there first. Once we settle things with Adrian, I'll bring you to go look for Anne, alright?"The doctor mentioned it was necessary to keep Luna in the dark about Anne's death. Thus, he was not about to inform Luna about what happened to Anne yet."No." She bit her lip and extended her arms, wrapping them around Joshua's body. She feebly said, "For some reason, I'm worried about her. I feel like I've forgotten something, and it's related to her."She looked up. "Joshua, can you please bring me to her? I'll only feel okay when I see her with my own eyes."Joshua's face looked terrible after hearing that. 'Anne is…'"I have a better idea." After a moment of silence, he said, "I'll send people to Anne's house for protection. After we're done at Adrian's wedding, I'll bring you to her right away."Frankly, Joshua did not know wha

    After reading the text message, Joshua's brow furrowed vehemently. Theoretically speaking, John was either handling Anne's funeral in the hospital or was at home comforting Sammie while taking the time to inform their relatives.'Why did John leave with Sammie, as well as Anne's body?' he thought to himself.Jude sent another text message when Joshua did not reply. [What should we do?[I think John is going to leave the city with Sammie, as well as Anne's body. I've already sent people to search at the airport and bus station. I don't think they can leave in such a short period.]Joshua replied, [Don't do it.]With a frown on his face, he nonchalantly added, [If John wants to leave with Anne's body and Sammie, don't stop him.]Maybe it was a good choice to let John leave this city with Anne and Sammie. At least, Luna would not be able to find Anne after John left, and it could stall her memory from recovering.[Should I recall my men, then?] asked Jude.Although Jude did not kn

    The scenery outside the window was a blur.Startled, Luna looked at Joshua in confusion, and her lips stretched unnaturally. "Joshua, what are you talking about? How is it possible that you'd do anything I can't forgive?"Seven years ago, she mistakenly thought he had wronged her, something she just could not forgive.After seven years, she finally knew the truth and that it was just a misunderstanding. The man she was looking at never did anything that would truly hurt her. Even if he did, it was not his intention.Thus, Luna found it hard to imagine what Joshua could do to result in her not forgiving him.Joshua paused when he saw Luna's confused eyes. In the end, he could bear to tell Luna the truth and sighed. "What I mean is…we have a whole lifetime ahead of us. During these periods, would you forgive me…if I did something you deem unforgivable?"Luna stopped. She took a deep breath and started to give Joshua's question some serious thinking."Joshua." She gave him a seriou

    When Bonnie noticed Anne's virtual absence, the others in the group chat also realized something was wrong.[Yannie: I called Anne just now, but she didn't answer. Is she busy?][Bonnie: Impossible. She's not working, and Sammie is just an infant. Normally, she's the first one to reply in the group…][Rachel: Maybe she's doing something. Don't worry. What could go wrong when she's in her house? Besides, Luna is in Banyan City too. She should know if something is wrong with Anne.]It reminded Bonnie that Luna was in the same city as Anne. Thus, she quickly asked in the group chat.[Bonnie: Hey, Luna. Anne isn't replying to any messages. Is she with you?]After changing into another evening gown, Luna left the fitting room and wanted to send the photo to the group chat again. This was when she saw the messages in the group chat. She paused and did not know what to reply.In the end, she simply texted, [We're not together. I think she's busy with her stuff. I'm going to look for he

    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
