The next morning, Joshua was just about to take a quick nap on the sofa after working the entire night when his phone rang.

It was Jude.

Joshua picked up, rubbing his eyebrows in exhaustion. "What's wrong?"

"Joshua!" Jude exclaimed from the other end of the line. "Where were you last night?"

Joshua furrowed his eyebrows and glanced at the empty living room. "At home, of course."

Before this, he and Luna had stayed in a rental unit that John helped them book so that their return to Banyan City would remain a secret, but considering that everyone in Banyan City knew that they returned and even witnessed Luna attempting murder, Joshua decided not to continue staying at the rental unit anymore and instead returned home to Blue Bay Villa.

Since Blue Bay Villa had been abandoned for quite some time, he dismissed most of the servants working there, with only a couple remaining to keep the villa clean and tidy.

It was five in the morning, and the cleaners had yet to arrive, so Joshua wa

    "Yes, it's me."It was none other than John, who disappeared the day before with Anne's body and their daughter, Sammie. At this moment, he was standing at Joshua's door with an umbrella in the pouring rain, his eyes bloodshot. "I was the one who killed Jacqueline."John wanted to exact revenge against Jacqueline ever since finding out about Anne's death, but he never once dreamed that Luna, the person whom he blamed for Anne's death, would risk everything, including her status and future, to murder Jacqueline in front of so many people…It should have been him, and only him.Therefore, after seeing the news last night, John decided not to hide any longer and instead went to the hospital to kill Jacqueline once and for all. If it were not for the fact that Willow was already arrested, he would have killed her, too.Joshua sighed as he stared at John's sunken face. "I knew it was you."There were no records of John or Sammie leaving the city, so this meant that they had been in hi

    "Okay," replied Joshua after a moment of silence."You shouldn't stay here long. The police will be on me since Jacqueline is dead. They'll be here anytime soon looking for me," he said.He gave John a name card. "This is a name card of a logistic company's owner. He owes me big time. Take this name card to him, and he'll know you're my friend. I'll keep my promise and never ask the owner your whereabouts with Sammie, ever."John paused and nodded while he tightened his fist with the name card in his palm. "Goodbye.""Take care," bade Joshua.John turned around and used the black baseball cap to hide his face while walking away with the umbrella. Just as he got to the street, a police car drove by.It was a dim morning, and it was raining to boot. The police were busy tracking where Joshua had been last night, so none of them noticed the man with the umbrella leaving.The moment John passed by the police car, he smiled ambiguously and contacted the owner of the logistics company

    "No one is going to laugh at you." It seemed like Joshua could tell what Luna was thinking about.He curled up his lips and smiled. "I'm here."Luna raised her head and looked at him through the glass. The determination and seriousness in his eyes warmed her chest.She bit her lip. After a moment of silence, she asked, "How's Jacqueline doing?"With a peaceful expression, he looked at Luna's face and said, "She's dead.""She's…dead?" Stunned, Luna looked back at him in disbelief. "How could that be?"When she was brought away by the police, Jacqueline was still smiling at the police as she told them how she, Luna, tried to kill her. Although Jacqueline's abdomen was bleeding, her mind was clear and she was still very much alive.'How is she dead over the night?' she thought."She didn't die because you stabbed her in the stomach. Someone snuck into the hospital and killed her." Joshua frowned.He was not going to tell her John was the murderer."So, there is no plaintiff in y

    Perhaps Joshua never expected Luna would suddenly question him about John's whereabouts at this time. He was startled and quietly shook his head."No. He was gone with Anne's body and Sammie after Anne passed away yesterday. I looked everywhere—every train station, airport, harbor, and highway. But…"He sighed. "I still can't find any traces of him leaving. Maybe he's still in the city. We just can't find where he is hiding. Don't worry. I'll try my best to look for him."Since he promised John not to look into where he and Sammie were going, he thought it was unnecessary to let Luna know about the promise. It was better off—that no one ever knew he had met up with John before."Okay." The light in Luna's eyes dimmed down after knowing that. "I'm sure he never wants to see us again or doesn't want to be found… If you can't find him, just let it be."The whole city must have gotten the news that she nearly killed Jacqueline during the wedding. If John was still indifferent after se

    Joshua instinctively rubbed his brows in frustration when he heard this. "Well, the truth is, none of you needed to come."Since Jacqueline was dead, there was no longer any plaintiff in Luna's hearing. Not only that, but all the surveillance tapes of that night were seized by the police as evidence, and the fact that everyone at the wedding that day could vouch that Jacqueline provoked Luna to the extent that she lost control…This meant that Luna would not suffer too badly, even if she had to face judicial prosecution in the end.After all, she did this for her best friend, whom she held dear to her heart."Needn't come?" Jim scoffed at this. "If we don't come now, when are we supposed to see her? After she starts serving time in prison?"This is absolutely outrageous, Joshua Lynch! Not only did you fail to protect Luna, but now that she's in jail, you even dare tell us not to come visit her!"Did you intend to continue hiding this from us? We wouldn't even have known about thi

    Joshua nodded, gave Rosalyn a courteous smile, then circled past them and headed straight toward the kids."Daddy!" Nellie spread her little arms wide open when she saw him coming and lunged straight into his embrace. "I missed you so much!"Joshua curled his lips into a smile as he knelt to pick her up. "Daddy misses all of you too."Nellie could not help pouting when she heard this. "What do you mean, you miss all of us, and not just me?"She reached out to point at Shelly's stroller with her pudgy little finger. "Are you saying that you don't love me anymore ever since Shelly came along?"Joshua could not help bursting into a chuckle when he saw the jealousy on Nellie's face. "I meant all four of you, sweetheart."He pressed a kiss onto her cheek and added, "All four of you, and also your Mommy, are my babies. I love all of you equally, and that never changed even after Shelly came along. And this means that I won't stop loving Mommy or your brothers because of you, do you und

    Neil and Nellie rushed to Joshua when they heard this and lined up to stare at him expectantly, waiting to hear his answer.Even Shelly seemed to understand her brothers and sister's actions and fixated her unblinking eyes on Joshua.Joshua sighed, gazing at the four children. "Your mother is fine, but…"He reached out to gently clasp Nellie's hand. "Unfortunately, Mommy needs to stay apart from us for a while. Will you wait patiently for Mommy to return?"Nellie bit her lip and lifted her head to stare at Joshua with tearful eyes. "I will! Not only that, but I'm sure Nigel, Neil, and Shelly will all wait for her to come back!"As she said this, she trotted to the stroller and gently held her sister's chubby hand. "Even though Mommy isn't around, I'll take good care of little Shelly! When she returns, she'll see just how good of a sister I am!"Joshua curled his lips into a smile as a surge of warmth spread into his heart. He was certain that Neil and Nellie had heard of what hap

    Luna closed her eyes, and memories of her with Anne flashed in her mind. The countless nights Anne spent with her, the time they admired the moon together…After Anne's unfortunate death, Anne's smiling face kept on appearing in her mind for days.She knew very well Anne would not want her to blame herself because of how kind she was. She even imagined Anne holding her hand, telling her it was not her fault with kindness and love.Nevertheless, it failed to make her come out from the fact that she was the reason her best friend was dead. Every time she thought of this, the pain consumed her so badly that she thought it was a mistake for her to be alive."Luna." Jim could see the sorrow and hopelessness in his sister's eyes. He furrowed his brows while holding Bonnie's hand to stop her from saying anything related to Anne."Dad and Mom flew here too. Everyone cares about you; we're worried about you. They wanted to come with us, but I stopped them. I was afraid you'd feel even wors

    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
