Luna squinted slightly as she looked at Fiona, who was sitting on the sofa in the distance with a rosy complexion.The day before, Joshua brought Fiona to the hospital. He said that Arianna burned Fiona, so they had to check up on her.What was it this time? Fiona was the one who deliberately put powdered vitamins in her cup just hours ago to cause a misunderstanding intentionally.Moreover, even if everyone mistook Fiona, no one took action on her. No one even touched her.Joshua was still taking her to the hospital, just because of that? How precious was Fiona to him? Just because she was agitated and was so-called misunderstood by others, she had to go to the hospital? At that thought, the wound on Luna’s arm, previously cut open by the painting equipment, started to hurt inexplicably.She seemed to have forgotten to dress her wound after getting hurt.Luna clutched the painful part of her arm and said nothing, but Joshua saw her every move.He narrowed his eyes, then h
Joshua, who was pouring the disinfectant, paused a little.After a while, he lifted his head and looked at Luna coldly. “You don’t have to put it so harshly. Fiona means a lot to me. It’s only normal that I value her.”Upon saying that, Joshua pointed to the seat next to him. “Come, sit here.”Luna bled so profusely that it must have hurt.This woman only wanted to bicker with him. Did she not care about her pain at all? Luna did not move.“Mr. Lynch, didn’t you say that you and I had nothing going on ever since six years ago? Since you and I are just normal superior and subordinate, which superior would help their subordinate dress wounds?”Luna shot Joshua a fierce stare.“Mr. Lynch, you got me to come over. I don’t think it’s just to help me dress my wounds, right? Just say what you want to say—don’t beat around the bush. I’m pretty busy, too.”Luna’s aloof and distant attitude made Joshua somewhat uncomfortable.He furrowed his brows and coldly looked at her face. “Do
Joshua’s answer only made Luna’s blood boil.She clenched her fists tight and gritted her teeth hard. She even had murderous intentions against Joshua.How could someone be so heartless, despicable, and shameless to this extent? Did he have to use such a detached way, talking so cruelly about his own child? Why in the world did she fall for this man in the beginning?Regardless, Luna understood all too well that she could not afford to offend Joshua.She clenched her fist by her sides, then she let go. She clenched them and relaxed them once again.Finally, she raised her head.“I understand, Mr. Lynch.”For her children, she could only continue to bear it.Luna forced a smile with difficulty. In the end, she smiled and looked at Joshua. “Is there anything else? If not, I’ll head back to work.”She did not even spare Joshua a chance to speak as she immediately turned and left.Luna did not dare to continue staying there in front of him. She was afraid that she could not
Christian Moore wanted to please Joshua. Naturally, he would also try to please Fiona.With Christian accompanying Fiona, Joshua did not worry about Fiona.Joshua let out a long breath and exhaustedly sat back on his chair.“Send men to protect Fiona secretly.”…When Luna returned to the office, there was a small bottle of iodine on her desk. It was the same bottle as the one in Joshua’s office previously.Did Joshua arrange for someone to send it over? How pretentious.Luna narrowed her eyes. She picked up the bottle of iodine and was about to throw it into the bin.Right at this moment, Shannon entered. Looking at Luna’s actions, Shannon’s eyes widened and came over to stop Luna.“Director Luna, what are you doing? Aren’t you injured? Zayne brought the iodine over to dress your wounds. It’s just a small gesture. You…”Luna’s hand, which was holding onto the bottle of iodine, stiffened a little.She retracted her hands and placed the bottle of iodine back on her desk.
Coming out of Lynch Group Tower, Luna immediately hailed a taxi to the hospital.Upon hearing that she had an emergency, the driver drove faster, reaching the hospital in less than 20 minutes.Leaving the car, Luna went straight into the hospital. With a queue waiting for the elevator, Luna gave up taking the elevator and chose the stairs instead.Soon, she reached the 13th floor.This was the floor where the donor was signing the agreement, according to what Anne told her on the phone.Panting heavily, Luna lowered her eyes and looked at the time.Thank goodness, she was still on time! The donor definitely had not left yet! “My, my, isn’t this Ms. Luna? Why are you so tired?” a woman’s ridicule-laced words rang in her ears.Luna furrowed her brows and subconsciously lifted her head.In front of her, Fiona had her arms crossed at her chest as she looked at Luna coldly.“Why are you here?” She knew Fiona was at the hospital, but should she not be in the department where she w
“After all, he and I are still related. Can I see him?”The doctor was in a bit of a pickle.“Uh… The child isn’t at the hospital for the time being. If you want to visit him, you might need to contact his mother. Get his mother to take you there.”Upon hearing their conversation up to that point, Luna was almost certain that the man was the donor who would donate his blood marrow cells to Nigel! Luna forcefully suppressed the excitement in her heart. She wanted to go up and speak to that man, but she was afraid that she would be too excited and thrilled, that man might notice something was off.She still remembered that the doctor had said the donor did not want anybody to know his identity.“Okay. Could you give me the mother’s phone number, then? I’ll contact her myself.”The doctor nodded. “It’s possible, but…”“Don’t worry. I won’t mention a thing about today.”After Christian saved the child’s mother’s phone number, he thought of how to approach Joshua’s child while kee
Luna gripped the phone somewhat tighter. “Y—You’re…Joshua’s nephew?”She knew that the person who called her must be the man she had seen a moment ago.She did not expect that the donor was a relative of Joshua.On a second thought, though, it made sense, too. Nigel was Joshua’s son. The possibility of Joshua’s relatives having a compatible bone marrow with Nigel was larger.“Hello?” asked Christian when he did not get a response from Luna.“I’m here.” Luna took a deep breath, and she gripped her phone tightly. “We’re just in time for lunch. Why don’t we have a meal together? I’m near the hospital.”Christian, on the other end of the call, was rather surprised. “What a coincidence. I’m at the hospital. I’m not from Banyan City, so I’m not familiar with this place. Why don’t you decide on a place to meet?”Luna nodded. “I’ll wait for you at Raindrop Paradise opposite the hospital.”Then, Luna immediately hung up. She let out a long breath, turned, and entered Raindrop Paradi
After all, everyone knew how much Joshua cared for his wife, Luna Gibson.If he could get Luna on his side, everything next would go smoothly.At that thought, Christian sighed. He pretended to shake his head helplessly.“There are two things I want to do recently, but I don’t need to finish them all. As long as I achieve one of them, I’ll be thrilled.“The first one is,” he said, looking at Luna as he did, “I want to have a relationship with a beautiful woman like you, Ms. Luna.“The second is to get my uncle, Joshua, to invest in my new company.”He smiled and looked at Luna. “Which one will you be willing to help me fulfill?”Christian chose his words purposely. He thought that Luna, a mother of two children and one of them about to undergo an operation, would never choose to have a relationship with a 19-year-old guy like him.While it looked like he gave Luna a choice, he was, in fact, making her pick the second option to help him get Joshua to invest in him.Little did C
