Gwen took a deep breath and pounced right at Luna, hugging her in her arms.

“I should’ve guessed it sooner! I should have!”

Luna could no longer hold back her tears. She raised her hand and patted Gwen’s back. “Can you help me keep a secret?” she pleaded softly.

Gwen nodded as tears streamed down her face. “Mmh! Don’t worry! Ben and I won’t tell anyone!”

Then, Gwen looked at Luna’s flawless face. “W—Why have you changed to a different face?”

Luna smiled. “Because I fell in love with someone I shouldn’t have fallen in love with.”

“Come in and have some tea.”

Ben was rather excited, too. He poured the tea and got the three of them to come over.

That night, Luna and Gwen chatted for a long time. It was at three in the morning when Gwen could no longer take it that she went upstairs to sleep.

Luna and Theo were arranged in the guest room on the third floor.

Two separate rooms with two separate balconies.

Unable to sleep, Luna went to the balcony to look up at the stars. It was

    Luna felt as if she was doused with ice-cold water.Gwen grabbed her hand, her voice filled with anxiety. “Luna, w—why don’t you…head down to have a look? Joshua doesn’t look like he was joking. Ben…”Luna looked at Gwen, but her voice sounded as if it came from another dimension. She had thought of how Joshua might get angry at her for escaping, but she never would have thought that…That he would be so extreme.He hired the biggest gangs in Sea City and put a bounty on her. Then, he came to Gwen’s house and threatened her with Ben’s life.Why was he so angry that she escaped last night? Was he so angry that he had to spend so much effort to get her back?Luna bit her lips harshly.After a while, she composed herself and grabbed Gwen’s hand with her other hand.“Don’t worry. I’ll…”She looked at the reflection of herself on the glass in the corridor. Her hair was in a mess. “I’ll clean up and head down. Go down for now, and tell Joshua that I’ll see him immediately. Ask

    Joshua frowned harshly as he sized her up with a complicated gaze.She had dark circles under her eyes. While it looked like she did not sleep well the night before, it seemed like she was not hurt.Joshua let out an inconspicuous sigh of relief.“Luna.”Gwen sat on the floor by the side as she held Ben tightly. She looked at Luna with reddened eyes.Ben’s leg still bled at that point.Luna pursed her lips and calmly looked at Joshua. “Mr. Lynch, you were looking for me, so I’m here now. You don’t have to cause them any more trouble.”Then, she looked at the blood on the floor and furrowed her brows tightly. “Go see a doctor.”Gwen bit her lips and looked at Joshua fearfully.Without Joshua’s approval, she would not even dare to dress Ben’s wounds.Joshua calmly looked at Ben, who was pale due to blood loss, then at Gwen next to Ben. He slowly smiled. “Go straight to the hospital.”Gwen paused a little.It was their home. If she was to take Ben to the hospital, would Josh

    The atmosphere in the living room suddenly turned weird.Joshua did not react in time to Luna’s sudden movements. His body’s instincts were much faster than the brain’s reasoning.He looked at her fair neck and those flaming red lips. He looked at her closer.In the living room, not only Joshua studied her. Almost everyone else did as well.The bodyguards were all stunned. How bold of her to do that! Still...she had a great figure, too! Noticing the bodyguards’ gaze on Luna, Joshua furrowed his brows tightly as he growled, “Turn around!”The bodyguards immediately obeyed and turned around in unison. No one dared to peep at Luna anymore.Joshua angrily took the thin blanket on the sofa and covered Luna. “Have you gone nuts?”When she still had her trench coat on, he could only make out her long legs.He thought that she would have worn a pair of shorts or a short skirt underneath her coat.At that moment, when he saw her…“I’m not crazy.” Luna smiled. She boldly bent down

    Joshua left Alice alone early in the morning and led a huge group to search for Luna.He hired the gangs in Sea City to help him, all for that woman. He even put a bounty on her head! The news from the bodyguards was even more shocking, one after the other! Each piece of news was enough for her to want to chop up that b*tch into a million pieces! How could there be such a horrible b*tch in the world?Joshua clearly made up his mind that she was Luna Gibson and that she was his wife, so why did Luna so despicably stick around?Suddenly, her phone rang.As she read the message on her phone, Alice’s eyes widened.A moment later, she angrily threw her phone to the side.Slam! The phone hit the wall.The loud sound made the other person in the room cower uncontrollably.After a long while, Hailey carefully raised her head and looked at Alice. “Miss, what happened?”Alice angrily furrowed her brows as she sat on the sofa.“Luna seduced Joshua. They’re in bed now.”Hailey

    Luna’s eyes seemed to smile as she spoke. Her tone was relaxed, too.However, only she would know how much in despair she was and how cold her heart was.Even if she knew Joshua’s plans and arrangements, she could not confront Joshua directly. Nigel still waited for her to rescue him.She could not let her momentary emotions spoil her entire plan! With that in mind, Luna could only use this way of pretending to be relaxed to get closer to Joshua. She brushed the incident off casually. After all, she had slept with him—everyone witnessed it downstairs. She guessed that Joshua could not possibly send her to those escorts anymore.However, Luna did not expect that Joshua would continue to play dumb with her.Joshua’s eyes narrowed a little. He looked at her with a rather complicated gaze. “What are you talking about?”Luna was stunned. She looked at Joshua, and she suddenly felt that pretending to be relaxed made it seem quite comical.It turned out that when she tried her best

    When he heard the sounds of water in the bathroom, Joshua closed his eyes and sighed.At that moment, his phone rang.It was news from Lucas downstairs. “Sir, I’ve checked on it. Theo is currently in the police station, and he’s accusing us of premeditated harm toward Luna. According to his statement, two groups were chasing after them, trapping him and Luna from the front and back. They had to fight for their lives to escape. He also said…”Lucas was silent for a while. He cleared his throat gently.“He also said that we brought five escorts and that we planned on using the escorts to defile Luna, then take a video of her with them to threaten her.”Lucas furrowed his brows. “No wonder he’s an artist. What vivid imagination he has…”With his brows furrowed a little, Joshua gripped his phone tighter.He glanced at the bathroom. Luna’s words a moment ago haunted his ears.“Why did you have to get five to six escorts to sleep with me just to avenge Alice? You sure do think high

    Luna turned around and looked out of the window. She did not dare meet Joshua’s gaze.Joshua took a deep breath and looked at the back of her head.“Last night, I…I was worried that Theo would do inappropriate things to you after he took you away while you were drunk, so I got Lucas to look for you.”Luna almost laughed out loud.She turned around and looked at Joshua coldly. “Mr. Lynch, are you trying to humor me? Because you were worried that Theo would do something to me, you got Lucas and five other escorts to chase after me to defile me and take pictures so you could stand up for Alice?”Luna looked at him with cold hatred in her eyes. “Mr. Lynch, are you always that cruel to the women you have sexual relationships with?”Joshua’s eyes darkened. He furrowed his brows. “I’m only trying to explain to you. I didn’t hire any escorts last night. Lucas only took Zach, Yuri, and a few other bodyguards.”Joshua glared at Luna coldly. “Do you understand what I’m saying?”Luna smi

    However…She had forgotten he got injured because of her back there.She did not do it on purpose.“No need.” Joshua looked at her with darkened eyes. He then turned to the back compartment of the car and took a packet of tissues. He drew a piece of tissue out.Luna furrowed her brows and watched his every move, blurting, “You should deal with it once you’re back in the hotel. The tissue won’t be able to wipe it off cleanly.”Joshua could not help but snicker at Luna’s words.“There’s no water in my brain.”He passed the tissue to her. “Wipe it off.”Luna paused a little, not understanding what he meant.Seeing how she did not respond, Joshua furrowed his brows and turned around. He used the tissue and wiped Luna’s mouth with force.The white tissue was dyed red with fresh blood.Only then did Luna remember that when he kissed her with force a moment ago, he bit her lips.She pursed her lips and looked at him. She took the tissue and wiped off the remaining splotches of blo

    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. He had tears on his face as well.She bit her lips and reached out to wipe his tears. "A—Are these tears…yours or his?

    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
