Luna put her towel back in the bathroom and gave Gwen a sheepish smile. “I was sleeping so soundly
that I didn’t hear my phone at all.“
Gwen pursed her lip and let out a sigh. “So…you’re not mad at me for what happened today, right?“
Gwen knew fully well that the wedding she was invited to was Ben and Clover’s.
She had been in love with Ben for so long that she had to see him marrying another woman with her own
eyes to give up and move on from him.
However, Luke banned her from attending the wedding altogether, refusing to let her go in fear she
would feel humiliated.
Therefore, she had no choice but to ask Luna to go on her behalf.
Luna shrugged. “I’m fine with it.“
Gwen lowered her head and said, “Luna, sometimes I really admire you… You moved on from Joshua
entirely, and even though you spend a lot of time with him now, you can still maintain indifference…“
She sighed and lifted her head to gaze at Luna. “ Don’t you even feel agitated whenever you look at
Joshua? Don’t you feel like getting back together with him?“
Luna shrugged again. “Why would I feel agitated? Why would I want to get back together with him? “
She still remembered how Joshua plotted to kill her.
No one understood her because none of them had ever gone through the pain that she had. If one had
experienced such heartbreak and anguish like hers, they would know why she was able to forget about
that man entirely.
“But…“ Gwen pursed her lips. “Sometimes, when I see you looking at Joshua, I can tell that you still love
him. You—“
“You must’ve been mistaken,“ Luna interjected coldly. “Every time I think of him, I feel like vomiting.“
As soon as she said this, she felt her stomach churn, as if it had somehow sensed what she had said.
Luna felt nauseated, and all of a sudden, a bitter taste arose in her mouth.
She could not even say another word and instead stormed toward the bathroom. The next second, she
was already holding onto the toilet bowl, retching. She had not eaten anything the whole day, thus
nothing came out even though she tried to vomit.
All that, yet she could still feel her stomach turning.
Gwen pursed her lips when she heard Luna retching in the bathroom and wheeled herself over to the
bathroom door. “Luna, are you…pregnant?“
Pregnant.
Luna felt as though a grenade had exploded in the back of her mind.
Her hands that gripped the rim of the toilet bowl started to tremble. “Could it… Could it be?“
She had longed to get pregnant and give birth to Joshua’s child so she could save Nigel.
The symptoms she was experiencing did seem a lot like morning sickness.
As soon as Gwen said that, Luna felt her blood rushing to her head. In the morning, she still felt dejected,
trying to find other ways to get close to Joshua, but then…
This was exceptionally good news.
“You seem like you’re having morning sickness.“ There was a hint of excitement in Gwen’s eyes. “Why
don’t you come with me to the hospital now and get it checked?“ Then, she paused and fixated her gaze
on Luna. “The baby belongs to Joshua, right?“
Luna pursed her lips slightly and nodded.
She still was not certain if she was pregnant yet, but if she was… It was Joshua’s, no doubt.
“That’s great news! “ Gwen seemed ecstatic to hear that. “Come on now, let’s not waste any more time.
Get ready, and we’ll go to the hospital right now, shall we? If you’re really pregnant, then Nigel can be
saved! “
Luna, too, felt overjoyed by this sudden news. She shot up and quickly changed into a fresh set of
clothes before leaving the hotel room, pushing Gwen’s wheelchair in front of her.
Just as they were waiting for the elevator, the doors slid open, and out strode Joshua.
“Are you going out?“ He glanced at Luna, then at Gwen. ”It seems that I came at the wrong time.”
He handed Luna the document that he was holding and grabbed hold of Gwen’s wheelchair. ”Where are
you guys going? I’ll give you a ride.”
