"I don't need any special treatment." John grinned at Tara. "All I want is the opportunity to participate."Tara furrowed her brow slightly at this but said nothing. Finally, she turned and left the room.To her surprise, she ran right into Luna, who had just gotten off the elevator.Luna, too, was just as startled to see her here.Surely Tara, who was obsessed with Joshua, would be at Moore Group with Joshua at this moment, getting some quality time with her favorite 'cousin'. Why was she at the hospital, then?"Hello, Luna." Tara smiled sheepishly when she saw Luna.Luna frowned and shot her a cold glance. "What are you doing here?"Was Tara here to see Gwen? That did not make sense; she and Gwen did not know each other at all. Why would she visit her?Tara paused, but before she could come up with an excuse, Robyn's voice rang out behind her. "Miss Moore!"Robyn sprinted toward them and handed the card to Tara, panting. "Miss Moore, my brother doesn't want to accept this gi
"Um…"Before Tara could respond, however, Robyn piped in. "Didn't I tell you my brother suffered a gunshot wound? Well, that's because he was protecting an old man last night."They both got kidnapped, and the man was about to be killed by the kidnapper. If my brother hadn't leaped out and saved the man just in time, he would've been dead by now."Miss Moore here is a relative of the man and came to thank us."With that, she brandished the card in front of Luna and added, "She wanted to reward us in return for my brother's kindness. We desperately need the money, but my brother insisted we not accept it. He didn't want to feel like his kindness was taken as an act of ulterior motives."Luna froze when she heard this. She furrowed her brow, glancing at Tara. "That 'relative' of yours is Gwen's father, isn't he?"Luna was well aware of what happened the night before. Since Joshua's men had rescued Andy the night before and Robyn's brother had gotten shot on the same day, it did not
Luna froze in shock for a long time.Finally, she regained her composure and grabbed Robyn's arm excitedly. "Are you saying that your brother was the one who saved the man everyone had been searching the entire city for?"Robyn did not expect this reaction from Luna at all. She took a small step backward in fear and nodded. "Yes… Yes."Why was Luna so excited to hear this?She furrowed her brow and asked, "Miss, do you…know my brother? Or are you somehow related to the old man from last night?"Luna was just about to say yes to both questions when Tara piped in. "Of course she's related to the old man. She's my cousin-in-law, which makes her a relative of the old man your brother saved. She's just excited to meet the man who saved his life."With that, she glanced at Luna. "Isn't that right, Luna?"Luna froze for a moment, then nodded. "Yes, I'm just happy he's safe and sound now."With that, she turned to stare at Robyn once more. "How's your brother doing now?""He's fine."
Luna raised her brows at Tara questioningly. "Are you saying you've known about Anne and John since six months ago?"Tara was silent for a moment before finally nodding. "Yes."She exhaled and stared solemnly at Luna. "In the past, all I had ever heard about you was that you married my long-lost cousin and were blessed with triplets. I also heard that at one point, you were close with Christian, but I didn't have any more information apart from this. One day, my aunt confided in me that you, my long-lost cousin-in-law, were none other than Moon, my favorite jewelry designer."Ever since this discovery, I started paying more attention to you and kept tabs on any news regarding you. With this, I was no stranger to your murder and trial, so I knew of Anne and John's existence."Luna's eyes widened in shock.She could not believe that Tara was secretly one of her fans, so much so that she would keep her eye out for any news of Luna even though they lived in different cities.However…
Luna peeked through the crack in the door.John, dressed in a hospital gown, sat up in his bed and ate while speaking to Robyn. "Did Miss Moore really say that?"Robyn nodded. "I also bumped into the woman who bought you this lunch at the elevators just now. You won't believe this, but she's related to Miss Moore! They're cousins by marriage!"John's hand froze mid-air, clearly surprised. He chuckled and asked, "Really? What a coincidence.""You're right! The world is such a small place!" Robyn nodded. "Not only that, but since they're cousins by marriage, she's also related to the man you saved last night. I think his name is…"Luna's heart leaped to her throat when she heard this.She had committed a foolish mistake. She would have never mentioned Gwen's name if only she had known John was the man who had rescued Gwen's father!They were so close to blowing their cover!At the thought of this, she could not help glancing at Tara with a frown.Tara was also at fault. If she h
Luna furrowed her brow when she heard this.She would have to keep Gwen out of sight when John visited them. At the same time, she had to get someone else to impersonate this so-called 'Andie Larson'.At the thought of this, Luna sighed and glanced meaningfully at Tara.Tara nodded in understanding, then turned and walked back toward the elevator with Luna.As the doors shut, Tara sighed and said in a rather exhausted tone, "Thank God Robyn's memory failed her. Otherwise, all our plans would be ruined."Luna nodded. Then, she glanced at Tara and asked, "By the way, how did John even end up with Gwen's father in the first place?"Andy had been brought to Sharnwick City by Tyson's men, who kidnapped him. How did John end up kept in the same room as Andy and even took a bullet for him?Did John also get kidnapped by the same people somehow? If so, why did they do this?At the mention of this, Tara sighed and began to explain, "Well, here's what happened. Last night, we discovered
"Yes, there is."Tara remained silent for a while, but eventually decided she shouldn't keep it from John. "The girl we just bumped into, Robyn... she was adopted by John's parents in the past."Luna frowned and paused for a moment before nodding. "I know."When Anne married, she told her about John's family. During his childhood, John's elderly parents adopted a little girl. Her biological family, however, took her away when she was in her teens, and she never returned. Even after John's elderly parents died, this daughter never returned.Anne had previously lamented that John's parents were good people who had adopted an ungrateful daughter. She ignored her adoptive parents as soon as she returned to her wealthy family."I've investigated the information about Robyn from when she was with John's family," Tara sighed. "Robyn comes from a prominent family in Sharnwick City; she is the Hughes family's daughter.""When she was young, an accident switched her with the nanny's daught
"Alright, I'll ask my assistant to send the information to you now."After thinking for a while, Tara agreed to share the information with Luna. She was aware of how close Luna and Anne were when Anne was still alive and she understood that Luna was trying to make up to John and his daughter.However…After a slight pause, she looked at Luna, "I heard John and Robyn are living together and Robyn is helping John to take care of his daughter now. Legally speaking, Robyn is John's sister but she's not his biological sister…"While she was talking, she closely observed Luna's expression."As Anne's best friend, are you sure you are okay with it?"Honestly speaking, she was not trying to create any trouble intentionally. She was just afraid that all Luna cared about was making up to John and did not consider what could happen when a non-biological brother and sister lived together.Giving Luna Robyn's information could actually harm Robyn, instead of helping her. After all, Luna was
