Luna lifted her head excitedly, but it was not what she expected: it was Joshua coming through the door,

holding Nellie’s hands, instead of Lily.

He was in a freshly pressed suit, looking tall and handsome.

Joshua held onto Nellie’s hand as they entered. The moment he raised his gaze, he noticed Luna, who

had a rosy-colored face with intricate make-up.

He was momentarily amazed and stunned by her beauty. He always knew that she was pretty, but he

also knew that his feelings for Luna were different from other women.

Out of respect for his relationship with Alice, he rarely ever sized Luna up seriously.

At that moment, she was so gorgeous that his heart violently fluttered.

When he recalled why she had such a face, however…

Joshua’s heart sank terribly. He looked away, pulled Nellie over, and took a seat.

Luna’s expressions were cold as she swept Joshua a cold glance. “I remembered having Lily send Nellie

over when I made the call.“

Joshua’s expressions darkened. Before he could say anything, Nellie furrowed her brows and said, “I

asked Daddy to accompany me.“

Nellie pursed her lips. “For the past month, Daddy has been constantly by your side, not sleeping the

entire night. Now that you’re awake, Mommy, Daddy should also join in the celebration.“

Luna’s heart sank a little upon Nellie’s words.

She did not know how true Nellie’s words were. It was not that she suspected Nellie of lying. She only felt

that Nellie was still young and too naive. She could not pinpoint adults lying and cheating.

Luna did not believe that Joshua would keep watch by her side.

After all, did she not become that way because he did not allow her to have his child?

The main culprit was him. No matter how affectionate he pretended to be, in Luna’s eyes, it was all fake.

“Let’s eat.“

Soon, the waiters served the dishes. Nigel lowered his head and said with a low voice, “The food here is

great.“

“Mmh.“

Luna sighed. She asked Nellie how she had been while passing food to her, but it was not long until

Luna noticed something was off with her.

Nellie used to be very talkative, yet at that moment, she remained silent. Luna had to ask for a long while

before Nellie would slowly mutter a few words.

After the meal, Nigel took Nellie to the playground by the side. Nellie was the healthy one, yet she

needed Nigel, the sick patient, to tease and cheer her up.

Luna could not take it any longer. In the end, she lifted her head and looked at Joshua.

“Nellie…“

“Autism and depression.“ Joshua sighed and added, “ What you’re seeing now is relatively much better.

When she’s at home, whether it be me or Granny, no one could get her to talk. She’s willing to talk to you

and Nigel because, in her heart, you two are important to her.“

Then, Joshua turned over and looked at Luna closely. “So, I hope once you get discharged, you’ll take

Nigel and stay at Blue Bay Mansion.“

Luna paused a little. She initially wanted to refuse, but Joshua took a deep breath and said, “Blue Bay

Villa is quiet and safe. It’s a safe and comfortable environment for the kids.

“I’ll arrange a professional nurse and a psychologist to help you take care of the kids together.“

Luna pursed her lips. “But— “

“I’ll move out.“ Joshua seemed to have read the confusion in her mind. He sighed and said, “I’ll move to

Orchard Manor north of the city.“

Then, Joshua looked at Luna. “Do you still remember Orchard Manor?“

When Joshua looked at her, his gaze was so deep that she could drown in them.

Luna looked away, not daring to look at him. “Yes.“ Orchard Manor was once a design Luna did with

apple trees as decor. It was a manor that could have lots of apples during the fall.

Joshua saw the design later down the line, so he got someone to build it up exactly as a birthday gift for

Luna.

At that time, their relationship got better. She thought that she finally had a place in his heart.

She did not expect that a month after receiving Orchard Manor as a gift, she broke up his affair with

Aura, which almost cost her life.

Later on, Luna thought that the Orchard Manor was only one of Joshua’s tactics to pacify her.

At that moment, he brought up this place once again. Was he planning to repeat the same thing again,

using the few romantic moments he had with her previously to make her remember the past?

Hmph!
