Luna did not expect that Joshua would wake up at that particular moment. She paused, raised her eyes, and met his tired gaze. She bit her lip. “When did you wake up?” “Just a few moments ago.” He lifted himself up and Luna hurriedly helped him lean back on the headboard, then handed him the glass of warm water from the bedside table. “So you plan to ask Aura to move in with us, then make her believe that we’ve had a falling out so she has a chance?” At her words, Joshua laughed softly as he sipped from the glass. He lowered the glass, gently grazing his thumb over her lower lip as he said, “So you agree that we’re now as close as we used to be?”The rough pad of his thumb grazed lightly over her soft, sensitive lips, leaving her feeling slightly numb and itchy. She blushed immediately, then pulled his hand away. “When did I grow close to you again?” He laughed lightly as he looked at her, his gaze deep and bottomless. “If we aren’t close, how can we have a falling out?” Sh

Adrian turned ghostly pale when he heard Joshua’s words. Beside him, Celia frowned and could not help but step in. “Joshua, Michael is your brother, how can you say that? Even though he…”“Even though he has both parents, he's still scum.” Joshua interrupted Celia coldly and turned to look at his father, his gaze ice-cold. “My mother died when I was a child, my father is no different from dead, but still, I have the basic moral compass of a decent human being. The two of you did not educate your son properly, till the point where he tried to murder someone in public. Now that there is concrete evidence and he was arrested by the police, not only do you fail to reflect on yourselves, instead, you try to force Luna to retract her case. Asking someone else to fix your mess, is this how Mr. and Mrs. Lynch are as human beings? No wonder you’ll have a son like Michael.” Adrian’s eyes bulged so far out in anger that they almost popped out of his head. Celia, on the other hand, was much c

Because of Granny Lynch and their unwelcome visitors, Luna lost her appetite early in the morning. She prepared breakfast and called Nellie and Nigel to the dining table, then headed to visit Neil and finally pushed Joshua’s door open, balancing the tray of food in her hands.At that moment, Joshua lay at the head of the bed, reading a copy of a medical report. Luna frowned and approached him, taking a peek at the report. To her surprise, it belonged to Granny Lynch. She paused, set the bowl on the tiny table and raised her eyes, glancing at Joshua. “What’s wrong with Granny?” “She relapsed. It happened some time ago, but she never told me.” Luna’s hand that was about to feed him a spoonful of oats paused slightly. “Is it serious?” “Yeah.” Joshua nodded, a hint of exhaustion appearing on his face. “She fell prey to a feuding family many years ago. Because of their extremely low-handed trick, she couldn’t even sit up in bed, but to protect the entire Lynch family, she didn’t

Looking at Aura’s blatantly arrogant attitude, Luna lifted her lips in a cold sneer and headed upstairs, ignoring her. Standing downstairs, Aura watched as Luna headed upstairs and swept everything on the dining table to the floor in fury! Even in her wildest dreams, she never expected that she would have dug her own grave. She anticipated that Neil would be sent to a specialist hospital to treat his wounds. However, she never expected the moment both she and Adrian worked together to force the old lady into a relapse, Joshua would immediately send the two children away on the excuse that the old lady was sick. Since all three of the bastards were not here, what was the point in her moving in? Theo had been saved and the children were not home. What could she use to continue threatening and working against Luna?At this thought, she gritted her teeth furiously, glanced at the boiling pot of clam chowder, and narrowed her eyes sharply.After Luna headed upstairs, she did not r

Joshua’s hand that was holding his phone paused. He raised his head and looked at Luna. “Courtney is sick.” Luna’s entire body trembled. Courtney was sick? But before she left, she was still perfectly fine. Why…Suddenly, the image of Courtney drinking clam chowder appeared before her eyes. If she remembered correctly…Aura asked one of the servants to bring her that bowl of clam chowder. But she never expected that Courtney would think it was a welcome gift from Aura and finished it all. That was why…At this thought, Luna broke up into cold sweat. She could not imagine the consequences if she had drunk that bowl of soup!“Luna.” Ending the call, Joshua kept his eyes fixed on Luna. “I asked the driver to send her to the hospital where both Neil and Theo are. Do you…want to visit her on my behalf?” Luna paused then nodded hurriedly. “Okay.” With that, she stood up in a rush and prepared to head out. The moment her fingers rested on the door handle, the sound of Joshua rummaging
