Alice pretended to be worried. “Joshua, I think you should…still make a police report.”

She clutched her chest, and her eyes reddened. “I’m heartbroken that my own father would do such a thing. If I knew earlier that he’d do this, I would’ve stopped him.”

Alice then looked at Luna meaningfully. “You know that Director Luna always had problems with me.”

Sniffling, she then shakily added, “When the plagiarism incident first came to light, Director Luna had been eyeing me suspiciously.”

Alice looked at Joshua with teary eyes. “I’m afraid that Director Luna wants to meet with my father alone so she can force my father to drag people who had nothing to do with this incident into this.”

Finally, Alice took a deep breath. “I still think we should let the cops handle this right away. What do you think?”

Joshua said nothing.

Taking a seat, he eyed Alice with his deep, endless eyes before looking at Luna.

In the end, he said flatly, “Alice is right. Before we clarify this matter, no one

    Clearly, Luna was the victim while Alice was Joseph’s daughter.Why were their roles swapped at that moment? Joshua narrowed his eyes on Luna’s leaving form, his gaze murky with confusion. “Joshua...” Alice sighed. She walked over and grabbed his hand. “Why is Luna so concerned with our family matters? Since when is she so enthusiastic about us?”“I’m surprised, too.” Joshua retracted his gaze, his voice flat when he spoke. “Luna has always been professional in her work. I can’t get used to her suddenly bringing in family as an excuse.”Then, he looked at Alice. “Just like how you used to be concerned and worry about your family unconditionally, yet you’d suddenly choose to punish them. It’s baffling.”Alice’s expressions changed a little.After a while, she bit her lip and looked a little embarrassed. “I’m doing this just for you…”She cautiously looked at Joshua’s expressions. “T—Then…what are you planning to do with my father?”There was a hint of hesitation in Joshua’s g

    Luna did not go to the hospital to visit Natasha. Instead, she took a taxi to the police station.The officer on duty turned her down in a righteous manner. “The suspect is still under interrogation, and no one can see him.”“When can I see him, then?”The officer looked at his watch. “At least another three to four hours.”“Three or four hours, right?” Luna sat down on the bench. “I’ll wait.”The officer looked at her in surprise but said nothing as he then left.Luna sat on the bench from the afternoon, all the way until night fell in the evening.Around six in the evening, the officer finally approached her. “You can see him now.”Luna thanked the officer and followed along to the visitation room, much to Joseph’s visible surprise.“I heard that a woman has been waiting to see me for the entire afternoon. I never thought that it was you.”Then, Joseph sneered. “Director Luna, why are you so anxious to see me? Are you here to laugh at me?”When Alice got him to steal Luna’

    Joseph looked at Luna agitatedly. “In that case, Ms. Luna, will you let me go?”“Sure,” Luna closed her eyes. “but I need you to answer two questions.”“First.” Luna took a deep breath and looked at the white-haired middle-aged man sitting opposite her closely. “Before Aura left for overseas, she told me something. She said that she wasn’t Natasha’s child. She was a child you had with another woman. You sent the daughter you had with Natasha to the orphanage and brought Aura back instead. Is this true?”The room was instantly in dead silence.Joseph lifted his head and looked at Luna in shock. He opened and closed his mouth many times, but could not form his words.After a long time, he said in a hoarse voice, “Why did she tell you this?”Luna closed her eyes and inhaled deeply. “You only need to answer whether this is true or not. If I were to tell this to Alice, based on her character and how kind she is, do you think she’ll want to rescue you after knowing that you abandoned

    Luna’s mind was dizzy as she exited the police station, yet Joseph’s words haunted her ears, still“We’re very remorseful. All this while, we thought that Luna won’t need us to worry about her, seeing how mature and capable she is.“We want to make it up to her. Me, stealing your drafts this time, was just an attempt to make her happy.“You previously asked me why I still do it, knowing the consequences. That’s because I’m willing to risk it for her. If Alice wants the stars in the skies, we’d try our very best to give it to her, seeing how we disregarded her badly in the past…”…Luna looked up at the dark skies. Suddenly, she felt like crying.Why?Why did none of her parents or Joshua cared for her or showed her any ounce of warmth when she was still Luna Gibson?Why did they only start to adore her, willing to do everything for her when she became just Luna and Alice became Luna Gibson?In the end, she merely lacked luck. Was she fated to never experience their tender love

    “If I can't do it without bringing my personal feelings to work, how can I ask my employees not to play favorites?”Luna bit her lip. She understood Joshua's insistence, but it was just...Luna turned to look at him. “Mr. Lynch, if I said that I don’t wish for Joseph Gibson to be in prison for too long, will you think I’m being unreasonable?”Joshua raised his eyes and looked in front. His voice was flat as he remarked, “Joseph Gibson has two daughters. One of them was Aura, who almost killed you and the children a few times. The other is my wife, Alice, who always had a problem with you.”He turned and glanced at Luna coldly, examining Luna’s face. “All that, and you’re extremely tolerant of Joseph and Natasha. You won’t resist no matter how they scold you. “If you didn’t install hidden cameras before this incident, your future in the jewelry design industry would be completely destroyed.”Joshua squinted. His gaze was so sharp that he could penetrate through all her pretense,

    Luna closed her eyes.She had reasons to suspect that Alice was probably the one that posted the video online.Alice was deliberately attempting to put Luna in a dilemma.On one hand was her career, which she has worked hard for many years and wanted to continue doing so for the rest of her life.On the other hand were her biological parents, who raised her for the past 20 years.Both were equally important to Luna.Luna secretly clenched her fists tightly. She had been too naive. She was so engrossed in her work for the past half a month that she almost forgot Alice, a ticking time bomb, was near her.After a long while, the car stopped.Joshua’s voice rang in her ears. “Get down.”Only then did Luna open her eyes.She opened the car door and realized that Joshua had sent her back to Swan Lake Residences.“Thank you,” she thanked him and left.“Luna.” The moment she turned around, Joshua called after her gently.She furrowed her brows and turned back subconsciously. “Is t

    Still at the back seat, Joshua’s gaze darkened. “Don’t you think that you’ve crossed the line with Luna?”Lucas was stunned.Crossed the line? Had...he?Seeing how dazed Lucas was, Joshua turned around and looked out of the window.“Your excessive concerns with her. Also, just now at the police station, you were whispering closely into Luna’s ears.”Lucas was stunned.His slow brain spun quickly. Lucas finally knew the problem.Was his boss…jealous? Lucas cleared his throat and said, “Okay. I’ll pay more attention to this in the future.”Joshua responded flatly and looked up at the apartment building.The light in Luna’s apartment had been switched on.“Let’s go.”…Luna walked out of the elevator and had just taken out her keys when she noticed light coming from under the door.She subconsciously furrowed her brows.Was someone in her house? Was it Anne? She did give her a set of spare keys when she just moved into the apartment, after all.The video online was spread

    Anne did not notice the changes in Luna’s expressions. She went to pour herself a glass of water, remarking as she drank, “Actually I feel that Joshua is very hard to read sometimes. After the video was posted online and it gained traction, Lynch Group immediately sent out an announcement at first notice that the video is misleading. “Not long after the notice, Joshua contacted me and told me about the incident. He said that you must be in a bad mood and told me to cheer you up.”Anne could not help but scoff, “If I didn’t know that he was the scumbag that hurt you so much, I would’ve thought that he’s a good person.”Luna secretly clenched her fists.After a while, she got up and rushed to the balcony.The place where the Maserati once stopped was already empty. Luna slapped her forehead in annoyance.Joshua must have thought that she was nuts. He prepared a surprise for her, yet she refused to invite him up.It was quite cold on the balcony.In the cold night breeze, Luna to

    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
