The next morning, Joshua was just about to take a quick nap on the sofa after working the entire night when his phone rang.It was Jude.Joshua picked up, rubbing his eyebrows in exhaustion. "What's wrong?""Joshua!" Jude exclaimed from the other end of the line. "Where were you last night?"Joshua furrowed his eyebrows and glanced at the empty living room. "At home, of course."Before this, he and Luna had stayed in a rental unit that John helped them book so that their return to Banyan City would remain a secret, but considering that everyone in Banyan City knew that they returned and even witnessed Luna attempting murder, Joshua decided not to continue staying at the rental unit anymore and instead returned home to Blue Bay Villa.Since Blue Bay Villa had been abandoned for quite some time, he dismissed most of the servants working there, with only a couple remaining to keep the villa clean and tidy.It was five in the morning, and the cleaners had yet to arrive, so Joshua wa

"Okay," replied Joshua after a moment of silence."You shouldn't stay here long. The police will be on me since Jacqueline is dead. They'll be here anytime soon looking for me," he said.He gave John a name card. "This is a name card of a logistic company's owner. He owes me big time. Take this name card to him, and he'll know you're my friend. I'll keep my promise and never ask the owner your whereabouts with Sammie, ever."John paused and nodded while he tightened his fist with the name card in his palm. "Goodbye.""Take care," bade Joshua.John turned around and used the black baseball cap to hide his face while walking away with the umbrella. Just as he got to the street, a police car drove by.It was a dim morning, and it was raining to boot. The police were busy tracking where Joshua had been last night, so none of them noticed the man with the umbrella leaving.The moment John passed by the police car, he smiled ambiguously and contacted the owner of the logistics company

Perhaps Joshua never expected Luna would suddenly question him about John's whereabouts at this time. He was startled and quietly shook his head."No. He was gone with Anne's body and Sammie after Anne passed away yesterday. I looked everywhere—every train station, airport, harbor, and highway. But…"He sighed. "I still can't find any traces of him leaving. Maybe he's still in the city. We just can't find where he is hiding. Don't worry. I'll try my best to look for him."Since he promised John not to look into where he and Sammie were going, he thought it was unnecessary to let Luna know about the promise. It was better off—that no one ever knew he had met up with John before."Okay." The light in Luna's eyes dimmed down after knowing that. "I'm sure he never wants to see us again or doesn't want to be found… If you can't find him, just let it be."The whole city must have gotten the news that she nearly killed Jacqueline during the wedding. If John was still indifferent after se

Joshua nodded, gave Rosalyn a courteous smile, then circled past them and headed straight toward the kids."Daddy!" Nellie spread her little arms wide open when she saw him coming and lunged straight into his embrace. "I missed you so much!"Joshua curled his lips into a smile as he knelt to pick her up. "Daddy misses all of you too."Nellie could not help pouting when she heard this. "What do you mean, you miss all of us, and not just me?"She reached out to point at Shelly's stroller with her pudgy little finger. "Are you saying that you don't love me anymore ever since Shelly came along?"Joshua could not help bursting into a chuckle when he saw the jealousy on Nellie's face. "I meant all four of you, sweetheart."He pressed a kiss onto her cheek and added, "All four of you, and also your Mommy, are my babies. I love all of you equally, and that never changed even after Shelly came along. And this means that I won't stop loving Mommy or your brothers because of you, do you und

Luna closed her eyes, and memories of her with Anne flashed in her mind. The countless nights Anne spent with her, the time they admired the moon together…After Anne's unfortunate death, Anne's smiling face kept on appearing in her mind for days.She knew very well Anne would not want her to blame herself because of how kind she was. She even imagined Anne holding her hand, telling her it was not her fault with kindness and love.Nevertheless, it failed to make her come out from the fact that she was the reason her best friend was dead. Every time she thought of this, the pain consumed her so badly that she thought it was a mistake for her to be alive."Luna." Jim could see the sorrow and hopelessness in his sister's eyes. He furrowed his brows while holding Bonnie's hand to stop her from saying anything related to Anne."Dad and Mom flew here too. Everyone cares about you; we're worried about you. They wanted to come with us, but I stopped them. I was afraid you'd feel even wors
