Looking at the photo of Jason and Bonnie, who stood happily in a wedding gown, Luna found it taunting.She lost two children, with one still on the brink of death.However, Jason, the man who almost killed her and her three children six years ago and also killed her child a month ago, could happily stand next to Bonnie in a wedding photo, having a huge wedding ceremony.The internet even came up with a beautiful childhood sweetheart love story for both of them.Looking at the articles, Luna only thought that the romantic love story was rather insulting.Why did this happen? Why did Jason get to have such a beautiful happy ending when he hurt her and her children?Why did she have to suffer so much when she never harmed anyone? Luna took a deep breath and looked at Jason and Bonnie’s wedding date seriously.It was a week later.Meaning, she still had a week to get Bonnie to see Jason’s true colors! Luna gripped her phone tightly.Those who had previously hurt her and her
“As long as he is still alive, I’ll never give up hope of curing him.”Malcolm, on the other end of the line, was silent for a while. “Luna, I know that you might not be able to accept this fact, but you just had a miscarriage a month ago. Even if you try hard with Joshua, it might not be in time…”Luna closed her eyes. “I don’t want to argue with you.”She tried her best to reign in her emotions.“Malcolm. I just lost two children, yet you’re here discussing with me when I’m going to lose my third child. Do you think it’s appropriate?”Malcolm paused a little. He said nothing.“I know you’re being kind, but you really can’t understand what I’m feeling right now. I don’t want to argue with you, so I’m going to hang up.”Once Luna hung up and lifted her head, she saw a scrawny figure by the door.Nigel was much skinnier compared to when she first left him and returned back to the country. A light breeze blew by Nigel in his hospital gown. It emphasized how skinny his body and li
Joshua sighed, then he turned and left.He understood Nigel’s reluctance. He also knew that Nigel was like Nellie, reluctant to accept the truth.However, he was an adult, and he had to face the cold, harsh reality.The scene had so much blood belonging to Neil and Theo…The doctors said that from the amount of blood bled, if they were not sent to the hospital in time after the incident, they would not have survived even if they escaped.Also, at that time, there were only Neil and Theo at the scene. Those charred body bits…If they did not belong to them, who else?At that thought, Joshua took a deep breath. He stopped in his tracks. “Help me get your men to search around.”Luke paused a little.“Why do you want my men to search?”Joshua said nothing and left.Luke looked at Joshua’s back, brows slightly furrowed as he did.…Luna hugged Nigel and cried for a long time.In the end, Nigel gently hugged Luna. “Mommy, let me treat you to a meal.”Luna, who was hugging Ni
Luna lifted her head excitedly, but it was not what she expected: it was Joshua coming through the door, holding Nellie’s hands, instead of Lily.He was in a freshly pressed suit, looking tall and handsome.Joshua held onto Nellie’s hand as they entered. The moment he raised his gaze, he noticed Luna, who had a rosy-colored face with intricate make-up.He was momentarily amazed and stunned by her beauty. He always knew that she was pretty, but he also knew that his feelings for Luna were different from other women.Out of respect for his relationship with Alice, he rarely ever sized Luna up seriously. At that moment, she was so gorgeous that his heart violently fluttered.When he recalled why she had such a face, however…Joshua’s heart sank terribly. He looked away, pulled Nellie over, and took a seat.Luna’s expressions were cold as she swept Joshua a cold glance. “I remembered having Lily send Nellie over when I made the call.”Joshua’s expressions darkened. Before he coul
“Okay then.”Luna took a deep breath and stared at Joshua indifferently. “Since you were the one who suggested it, I’ll do it.”At that moment, not only did Nigel have to be taken care of, but Nellie as well. On top of that, she had to deal with Jason later, and…get busy with Nigel’s sickness.Her previous residence at Swan Lake Residences was too small and unsuitable to live there anymore.It looked like Joshua’s Blue Bay Villa and the other conditions that he offered were the most suitable choice.“I’ll move out tomorrow.” Joshua laughed bitterly. He looked at her bony shoulders and wanted to pull her into his arms, deciding against it in the end.She had too many misunderstandings about him; the incident six years back as well as a month ago.He could never bear to hurt her, yet she had always hated him.Joshua took a deep breath and turned to look at Nigel and Nellie playing.“You might not want to hear this, but I still have to tell you—I didn’t let Jason out. My father a
Other six-year-old children might be able to laugh, cry, and fool around.What about Nigel? He was only six, yet just a happy dinner with his mother and sister could deteriorate his body.Looking at how much suffering Luna was in, Joshua sighed and gently patted her on the shoulder.“Nigel will get better. He’ll definitely get better.”Luna closed her eyes, her voice filled with coldness, “How? How will he get better?”She and Malcolm have searched around in different bone marrow banks.The reason she returned to the country and thought of having another child to cure Nigel was that it was already the last choice due to desperation.However, her child…Luna bit her lip harshly.After a while, she opened her eyes. “Joshua. Let’s sleep together tonight.”She glared at his face and enunciated every word, “I have medication that helps with ovulation. Let’s do it tonight—”“Luna,” Joshua interrupted before Luna could finish her sentence, brows furrowed, “do you know what you’re
Luna had a nice dream.She dreamt that she got pregnant with Joshua’s child once more and gave birth to a son as adorable as Neil.With Nigel’s sickness then cured, she took the children back to Malcolm’s mansion abroad where Malcolm stood by the entrance, all smiles as he welcomed them.Luna ran over to Malcolm in joy and excitement.“I said that I’d cure Nigel. Look! I’ve done it!”Malcolm smiled and looked at her.“I never would’ve thought that Joshua was willing to sacrifice his life to rescue Nigel.”Luna was stunned for a while, dazed as she looked at him. “Joshua sacrificed his life to save Nigel? Joshua…”Joshua’s pale and colorless face suddenly appeared in her mind.Luna took a step backward. It felt as if her heart was squeezed tightly by an invisible hand. The cruel hand gripped her heart tighter, bit by bit, crushing it to pieces.“Joshua!”Luna woke up from her nightmare due to excruciating pain.In the room, Anne and Gwen looked at each other before Gwen tu
Nigel was explaining to Luke, who had a laptop in his hands and a confused expression, next to him.“This is just basic coding. When I have the time next time, I can slowly teach you this.”Luke smiled. “Great.”Once Luna got in the car, she noticed her son and Luke being friendly with each other.She furrowed her brows. Did Gwen not say a moment ago that Luke’s first girlfriend was back in the country? Why did he still have the time to accompany Nigel? Anne helped Luna find a seat in the car.Once Gwen put Luna’s luggage in the car, she went to the counter to get Luna’s patient records.Looking at Gwen leaving, Luna confusedly turned to look at Luke.“Just now Gwennie said that your first girlfriend—”“It’s fake,” Luke stopped Luna before she could finish.“She feels that she’s not worthy to be with me since she was married before and had gone through such an incident. So, I came up with a ‘first girlfriend’ to let her have peace of mind.”Luna and Anne were both speechles
