Alice tried to take her life?

Joshua immediately bounced up from the chair. “How is Alice now?”

The butler’s voice was trembling a little. “She has stopped. When Mary was upstairs cleaning, she heard a loud voice coming from the study, so she immediately pushed the door open to have a look. She saw Mrs. Lynch hanging herself. She has been taken down by the security guard already. She is fine now, but Mrs. Lynch has been crying ever since. She said she would rather just die…”

Joshua frowned hard. “I’ll be back immediately!”

Then, Joshua hung up the phone and stormed off. When he was by the door, he suddenly thought of something. He turned around and swept Luna a glance. “Alice tried to kill herself at home. I have to go back home and attend to her. I have arranged to let you take Neil and Nellie to the amusement park tomorrow, as an early reward on the project. Don’t forget about the time.”

Then, Joshua hurriedly left.

Luna laid on the bed and looked at Joshua leaving. She smiled

    Alice’s sobs rang out. Her back shuddered while she sobbed.Joshua sighed and gently patted her back, “This has nothing to do with you. You left Joshua and Natasha for so many years. Their actions have nothing to do with you.”A hint of cunningness flashed across Alice’s eyes. She remained buried in Joshua’s arms.After a while, Alice looked up still sobbing. “Is Luna alright? I went to visit her in the hospital this afternoon. She treated me very badly. She said vehemently that I was the one that urged my father to harm her…”Alice wiped her tears. Her voice was hoarse, “I have already tried my best to apologize to her, but she would not even accept it. She also said…”Joshua gently rubbed Alice’s back. “What did she say?”“She said that the apple does not fall far from the tree. Sooner or later, I will also…”Alice choked. She was so agitated she could not finish her sentence.The hand that Joshua was using to gently rub Alice’s back suddenly stopped.After a while, he retra

    Alice was dressed in a revealing way, standing in front of Joshua. She never expected that Joshua would say such words. Her face turned a little pale. Then, she gently laughed, “Joshua…”Alice went around the desk and directly approached Joshua. She tenderly sat on his lap, burying herself in his arms. She slid her long finger across his cold, handsome face. “With you around, even if I don’t wear anything, I won’t feel cold.”Alice’s actions were extremely seductive, one would not be able to resist her facial expression.However…Joshua furrowed his brows. He put her down from his arms.He reached her long hands and grabbed the teacup which Alice placed on the table. He picked it up and took a small sip. “Aren’t you here to apologize to me?”He leaned back and pushed the chair slightly away from Alice. “What are you apologizing for?”Alice furrowed her brows. She wanted to continue getting closer to Joshua. “After you went upstairs, I thought for a while. It’s true. Luna d

    Alice could no longer suppress the rage in her heart. She immediately picked up the vase on the table and smashed it on the floor! The loud sound of the vase smashing into pieces relieved her a little.She angrily bit her lips and threw everything she could find onto the floor! Bang! Slam! Crash! Loud sounds of things crashing rang throughout the entire Blue Bay Villa.After a while, servants quickly ran up.They stood in front of her door, no one dared to knock on her door and enter to persuade her.Hearing sounds by her door. Alice angrily walked to her door and opened it. “If anyone dares to tell Joshua about this incident tonight, you can say goodbye to Blue Bay Villa!”The servants looked at each other. They lowered their heads and did not dare to say a single word.After a long while, one of the servants from the back of the group slowly got up. “Mrs. Lynch, I serve Young Master Neil and Ms. Nellie…“They got me to tell you that they are going to the amusement park w

    Luna’s smile turned into a sneer.After a while, she narrowed her eyes and looked at Alice in the red dress. Her tone turned cold too. “You’re coming along too?”“Yes.” Alice smiled brightly at Luna. “Joshua and I also want to accompany Neil and Nellie today.”Then, she pretended to be motherly. “For the past half a month, I have been working in the design department every day. I don’t even have the time to spend time with my kids. Now that they are leaving, I don’t want to give up the last chance I have to spend time with them.”“I’m their mother and you’re their adoptive moth. Our feelings for the children are the same, right?”As if! Luna clenched her fists tightly. She could not help but immediately see through Alice’s pretense. “Mrs. Lynch, your acting skills are getting better.”“Likewise.” Alice walked over and said in her eyes. “As long as you’re unhappy, I’ll be happy. You want to spend a day happily playing? Dream on.”Luna released her clenched fist. She sneered and

    Alice furrowed her brows. “If you want ice cream, go get it!”Neil blinked his eyes and looked at Alice. “But, when Luna Mommy took us to the amusement park last time, she always brought me to buy ice cream. She paid for us. I want you to take me.”Alice pursed her lips. She wanted to say something when Joshua let go of her hand. “Go with him. It’s rare that Neil wants to get close to you.”Alice furrowed her brows and turned around reluctantly, taking Neil to the ice cream stall.Neil bought five ice cream cones, he was eating one in his hand.The vendor swept a glance at Neil, then naturally passed the other four ice cream cones to Alice.Having to hold two rather huge ice cream cones in one hand, Alice’s expressions darkened gloomily.“Ms. Alice, hold it properly!” Neil smiled at her. “The four ice cream cones. One is for Nellie, one is for Joshua, and two for Luna Mommy!”The veins on Alice’s forehead popped. “What about me?”Neil blinked his eyes and looked at Alice innoc

    “Damn it!”In the amusement park’s changing room, Alice unwillingly slipped out of her long, red dress and into a long shirt and long pants that the staff provided.After leaving the changing room, she ran into Neil who had long since been waiting for her at the entrance.“Ms. Alice, our beautiful day has just started.”The little guy leaned on the door, licking on the new ice cream that Joshua bought for him and winked in Alice’s direction. “Later I would like to invite you to ride on the roller coaster, the drop tower and the swing pendulum ride too!”He frowned slightly. “Ms. Alice, are you afraid of heights? I remember there’s also bungee jumping facilities in this amusement park.” As he said that, he turned and glimpsed at her, “Initially, I planned to enjoy those rides with Mommy Luna, but now that she hurt her shoulder, I have no choice but to invite you. Since you’re here today to bond with us children, then you wouldn’t reject an invitation from your beloved son and daugh

    “Daddy promised me just now, he would make 520 points, and win me the biggest teddy bear as a parting gift!”Alice secretly rolled her eyes at her and raised her head, her voice soft and gentle, “Joshua, since Nellie wants it so much, let’s buy the bear and give it to her, then can you accompany me to the hospital to visit my mother?”Nellie pursed her lips. “I don’t want you to buy it! I want Daddy to exchange his points for it! A present that you buy with money is different from one that you earn with your effort and hard work!” Alice frowned and glared at her. “How is it different! You’ll just get the same teddy bear!” With that, she raised her head. “Joshua, visiting my mother is more important, I’m worried something will happen to her… can you accompany me, please?”She definitely did not want to continue staying here and be tortured by that little bastard, Neil. But if she left by herself and left Joshua here with them…Was that not exactly what Luna wanted?At this though

    Alice herself knew her reason was not strong enough to convince Joshua to give up the two children and leave with her. But still, she gritted her teeth secretly and pulled on Joshua’s sleeve in a whine, putting in a last-ditch effort. “Joshua…”Luna yawned and turned away, right at that moment she saw the carousel had started rotating. She lowered her eyes and whispered in Nellie’s ears. Nellie pursed her lips and stood up, carrying her teddy bear in her hands. “Daddy, since you’re so busy, you don’t want to win the toy for me. After all, you haven’t given me any meaningful presents before, I’m used to it!” With that, the little girl held Luna’s hand and the mother and daughter pair headed in the direction of the carousel. Seeing as the eyesores were finally gone, Alice heaved a sigh of relief, “Joshua, let’s…”“Daddy.”Before she could finish her sentence, Neil appeared out of nowhere, holding four tickets to the roller coaster in his hand. “Let’s try out this ride, okay?” As

"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.

    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
