Neil immediately deleted the photo.
Although he looked exactly like Nigel, there were subtle differences if one were to look closely.
Joshua was a meticulous person, and Neil feared he might notice them.
After deleting the photo, he returned the phone to Joshua. “What other tests are there? Let me do them,
but you can’t disturb us anymore for the rest of the day.“
Joshua furrowed his brows. “Why are you suddenly so cooperative?’
Neil put up great resistance ever since he brought them to the hospital. Otherwise, Joshua would not
have had to keep a close eye on them.
Who knew Neil would turn so obedient after looking at the photo?
Neil rolled his eyes. “I thought that you were afraid that we weren’t sick, so you hoped for us to die
earlier. After seeing the photo, I now know that you’re concerned for me. I ’11 reluctantly cooperate then.“
Then, Neil ignored Joshua and rolled up his sleeves, letting the nurse take his blood.
At the sight of him finally cooperating, Joshua let out a long sigh and exited.
Outside in the corridors, Nellie was already on her third lollipop. Upon seeing Joshua, Nellie pursed her
lips and remained silent.
Joshua took a deep breath and sat down next to Nellie.
“I heard that your stomach was uncomfortable last night?“
Nellie pursed her lips. She rolled her eyes rather aggrievedly. “If someone were to ask you to drink a
couple bottles of milk within an hour, your stomach would be uncomfortable, too.“
Joshua sighed. “How many bottles did you drink?“ “Three. Neil drank five.“
Nellie pouted as she sat on the bench with a dissatisfied expression. “That crazy lady said that we have
to finish ten bottles of milk, and only then would she not lock us up in the little dark house. She also said
that since we’d complain about things like not having snacks and drinks to drink, she’d let us drink until
we had enough.“
At the thought of that crazy lady’s fierce expression, Nellie was extremely unhappy. “We tried our very
best for a long time, but we still couldn’t finish ten bottles. If it weren’t for Lily secretly helping us with two
and a half bottles, she would’ve locked us up for real! “
Joshua was heartbroken and angry at his daughter’s words.
Joshua took a deep breath. “The things you told me, do you have any proof?“
“No.“ Nellie pursed her lips. “Neil previously had a few recording devices, but after scolding us last night,
she got people to search our room. She took away all our recording devices and electronic equipment.“
Nellie sighed. “We could only suffer in silence! “
Joshua furrowed his brows. He could still understand that day when Alice forbade the kids to have any
snacks and waited for him to have dinner together. She wanted to raise her children with the rules and
habits of an upper-class family.
Although what she did was way too much, it was out of deep love for her children.
However, the night before, when she confiscated their electronic devices and forced the kids to drink milk
and have snacks, that was clearly just taking it out on them.
It was because he said a few words about her that she took it out on her children. She forced her
growing children to drink ten bottles of milk.
It seemed like he needed some time to have a proper talk with Alice.
At that thought, Joshua turned to look at Lucas who was behind him. “When you called this morning, you
said that Alice was at the office?“
“Mmh.“
Lucas was silent for a while. “I just received a video from someone anonymous. Do you want to have a
look at it?“
Joshua furrowed his brows and took the phone.
The video was Alice kneeling on the ground as she gazed at Luna sincerely.
“Ms. Luna, can you forgive me? I promise I won’t come in between you and Joshua’s work. No matter
how late Joshua goes to look for you, I won’t make any noise. I won’t try to hurt you anymore.”
Joshua’s expressions gradually turned from calm into raging anger.
