Luna glared at Joshua and could no longer suppress her rage. “How dare you! “
“That’s enough. Stop messing with her.“ Luke glanced at Joshua and added, “The reason I came over is
to tell you that Alice is here. She’s standing outside Gwen’s ward, demanding to see you. She made so
much racket that she woke Gwen up. Please go take care of this.“
Joshua furrowed his brows in irritation. “Alright.“ With that, he let go of Luna and strode out of the
stairwell.
The two people watched as Joshua’s retreating figure disappeared from view. Then, Luke shrugged and
tucked his hands in his pockets, glancing at Luna simultaneously. “He’s really in love with you. Last night,
when he found out you were pregnant with another man’s child, he was so upset that he came to find me
and spent the whole night drinking.
“As for what he said about the abortion… He’s just saying it out of spite. Why are you taking him so
seriously? He’s not that cruel and heartless.“
Luna scoffed and retorted coldly, “That’s because you don’t know him as well as I do. Many years ago,
he had an affair with Luna Gibson’s sister, Aura. He was willing to kill Luna Gibson just to please Aura.“
She shot Luke a cold glance before continuing, “He’s willing to hurt his own children. What makes you
think he won’t do that to me?“
Luke stared at Luna, his eyes wide with shock, but Luna did not seem to notice this. Instead, she wiped
the blood that trickled out of the corner of her mouth and said, “I have three more hours until my flight. I
better go now.“
With that, she descended the flight of stairs.
Luke frowned and watched Luna leave, limping slightly. “Aren’t you going to say goodbye to Joshua?“
Luna closed her eyes. “There’s no need.“ With that, she left without a second glance.
Luke remained motionless and could not help letting out a deep sigh.
Luna went down to the floor below and managed to find an elevator.
“Joshua, how dare you lie to me and say it’s not because of Luna?“
“Where is she? You’d better ask her to come out right this instant! “
“Stop trying to lie! The reason you’re divorcing me is because of her! “
“I want to find Luna right this instant so she can talk some sense into you! “
Even though she was on the floor below Gwen’s ward, Luna could still hear Alice’s shouts. She let out an
exasperated sigh and closed her eyes.
No wonder Alice was trying to get rid of Neil and Nellie. It was because Joshua had officially filed for
divorce, and so Alice —thinking it was Luna’s fault— tried to get her revenge.
The elevator descended two more floors. When the doors opened, two men dressed entirely in black
boarded the elevator and said in a low voice, “You’re Ms. Luna, right?“
“We’re Luke’s men. We’ve been ordered to escort you to the airport.“
Luna lifted her head to glance at the two men before her. They were speaking in a distinct local accent,
and although she did not recognize them, she could tell they were Luke’s men from the way they
dressed.
“Bring me to the hotel first. “ Her belongings were still at the hotel.
The two men did not say a single word throughout the car ride from the hospital to Luna’s hotel. One of
them was focused on driving, while the other gazed out the window in silence.
The car soon arrived at the hotel. Luna quickly packed her suitcase, checked out of her hotel room, then
returned to the car, with the two men escorting her throughout.
When they got into the car, one of the men handed Luna an unopened bottle of mineral water. “Here. In
case you get thirsty on the way.“
“Thank you.“ Luna nodded in appreciation. She did start to feel thirsty.
She did not expect Luke’s men to be exactly like him: thoughtful and kind beneath a hard exterior.
She twisted the bottle cap open and drank the water without thinking twice.
The streets were considerably emptier at night than during the day, so it did not take long for them to
arrive at the airport.
Luna got out of the car after a half hour’s car ride. She walked into the airport and made her way past the
security clearance. The two men kept their eyes on her all this while and, after making sure she had
successfully passed security clearance, finally turned around and left.
Luna sat down in the airport waiting lounge and felt a little worried about Theo, so she picked up her
phone and dialed his number.
However, no matter how many times she tried, she could not get through to him at all.
Luna had no choice but to call Nigel for help instead. She knew that Nigel had kept in touch with Luke,
Neil, and Nellie all this while, so he could probably help.
To her surprise, she could not get through to Nigel either.
