“This is moral coercion! “
Anne angrily looked at Celeste. “It’s true that your son likes Luna, but Luna has made it clear to him that
she wouldn’t marry him. She wouldn’t be
together with him either. They could only be friends.
“Theo likes Luna and even sacrificed his life for Luna’s children in the end, and while everyone feels sad
about this, you can’t use this as a condition to get Luna to marry a dead person, living the life of a
widower her entire life, right?“
Celeste sneered as she ignored Anne’s words. Celeste lowered her head and looked at Luna mockingly.
“ I’m asking you, Luna: are you willing to do it or not?“
Luna, who was kneeling on the ground, closed her eyes depressingly.
“I’m sorry.“
Celeste’s eyes were instantly filled with anger at Luna’s response.
“Our Theo sacrificed his life for you! I’m only asking you to marry him, to not have any other men for the
rest of your life! Would it kill you to not have any men?“
Celeste angrily turned to look at Joshua. “You still can’t let go of your Mr. Lynch, right?“
The more she talked, the angrier she got. “As expected. You still wish to be with Joshua! When Theo
was still alive, he said that you told him you’d never be with Joshua. Look what happened! “
Luna paused for a while.
She lifted her head and looked at Celeste seriously.
“Mrs. Allen. If what you’re worried about is whether I’d marry Joshua or not, I can assure you that I won’t
marry him.“
The entire corridor was in pin-drop silence upon
Luna’s words.
Joshua, who remained silent the whole time as he stood behind Luna, looked at Luna with darkened
eyes.
Anne pursed her lips and subconsciously looked at Joshua, then looked at Luna.
An awkward silence hung in the air.
In the end, Nathan pursed his lips. He lowered his head and looked at Luna.
“Ms. Luna, don’t mind my wife. She speaks without thinking. You…“
Luna lifted her head. With a serious gaze, she said, “If I could, I don’t intend to marry for the rest of my
life. I want to spend the rest of my life taking care of my children. However, my life hasn’t belonged to me
for a very long time. I’ve long agreed to the proposal of another person before Theo. I’ve also told Theo
of my marriage, but Theo feels that as long as I wasn’t married, he still had a chance. So…“
Luna took a deep breath. “You don’t have to worry that I’ll marry Joshua. I won’t make the same
mistake twice on the same person. Don’t worry.“
Celeste and Nathan looked at each other subconsciously upon Luna’s words.
They never expected that Luna would say such things. They also never expected that their son would be
willing to sacrifice his life for her, even when he knew that Luna had a marriage proposal on hand.
After a long while, Nathan sighed a little. He bent down and gently tapped Luna on the shoulders.
“If that’s the case, I still have another request.“ Luna lifted her head. “Tell me.“
“Since you already have a marriage planned, we can’t morally coerce you like what your friend said, but I
still hope that when you pay a tribute to your son, you could do it for Theo, too. Also…“
Nathan sighed and continued, “I hope that you won’t be getting married in the next three years. At least,
not a grand ceremony…“
Luna nodded her head heavily, lowly replying, “ Okay. I promise you.“
Although Theo’s death was not her intention, he still died because of her. Luna knew that Malcolm would
understand this.
