Tears welled up in Alice’s eyes. She bit down on her lip and shot Natasha and Joseph a disconcerted
glance. “I already told you guys to let me come alone. Now, look at what you’ve done. Joshua has
misinterpreted my intentions! “
Alice sniffed and handed the thermal food container to Joshua. “I made some soup for Luna. Since you
think my parents and I have ulterior motives for visiting her, then we’111eave right now! “
With that, Alice turned around. Just as she was about to leave, however, Joshua frowned and grabbed
her wrist.
“Since you don’t have any ulterior motives for visiting Luna, why are you leaving now? I ‘m sorry I
misinterpreted and misunderstood you, “ said Joshua, his gaze fixated on Alice.
Luna’s heart turned cold as soon as she heard that.
In all the years she had known Joshua, whether as his wife or as her new identity, she had never heard
him speak to anyone so tenderly.
Joshua had also misunderstood Luna this morning, but he never admitted his mistake, even though Luna
had fainted and was subsequently hospitalized because of it.
However, he was willing to apologize to Alice.
Joshua was willing to apologize to both Aura and Alice, but not to Luna.
“Alright, I’ll forgive you! “ Alice beamed at him, hooked her arm through his, and entered Luna’s ward
together.
Natasha and Joseph shared a glance before they entered the room behind them.
Alice walked over to Luna and opened the food container. “Luna, I made you some soup. Why don’t you
try it?“
Luna frowned. She was about to turn down Alice’s offer, but the latter had placed the bowl in her hand.
Luna contemplated for a moment before she took it. Alice probably would not dare to spike her soup in
front of so many people.
Besides, the only thing she had eaten for the whole day was the soup Joshua had brought earlier.
Therefore, Luna was still a little hungry.
Seeing that Luna had taken the bowl from her, Alice immediately added, “Luna, quick, eat it while it’s still
hot. I went to so much trouble just to make this for you! “
“Well, if that’s the case, thank you, Mrs. Lynch.“ Luna picked up a spoon and took a small sip.
A familiar taste surrounded Luna’s taste buds, and her mind immediately went blank.
This soup…
It was Natasha’s cooking!
Growing up, Natasha would make her this exact bowl of soup every time Luna fell sick.
This was the taste that Luna had craved for many years. When she was abroad, Luna longed to taste
her mother’s cooking again one day.
Now that she had finally gotten that wish, Luna suddenly felt an urge to cry. However, she knew she
could not cry in front of everyone like that, so she sniffed and lifted her head, stifling her tears.
As soon as she raised her head, Luna came face-to – face with Alice —the woman who looked exactly
like how she used to look.
At that moment, Alice’s lips were curled into a triumphant smirk, laced with a hint of contempt. “ How is
it? Does it taste good? I made it myself, you know.”
Luna bit down on her lip. She knew that Alice could not have made this herself.
Luna turned around and glanced at Natasha, who stood at the side. Natasha just so happened to be
looking at her, and their eyes met.
