“Why did she talk to me like that…“ With that, she bit her lip and wordlessly held Joshua’s big, dry hand.
“Joshua, you really…really can’t make her leave the Lynch Group?“
Actually, Fiona understood what Luna said just now. But she needed an opportunity to make this request
from Joshua. Luna was too important to him. She did not want Luna to continue staying beside him.
Sooner or later, something would happen.
Joshua narrowed his eyes and faintly pulled his hand out of Fiona’s grasp. “Is it Luna you don’t trust, or
me?“
His low, cold voice made Fiona bite her lip. “That’s not what I meant, I…“
“Since I agreed to your request and chose to be with you, I won’t abandon you so easily. I made you a
promise. Luna is just my ex-wife, besides, you saw us with your own two eyes, we’re like fire and ice,
why are you still worried?“
“But Joshua… “ Fiona lowered her head and whined pitifully, “Maybe this is my first time being in a
relationship, so I feel very insecure… It’s my fault, my mindset is wrong, I’ll try to change my mindset…“
Her lower lip turned pale from how hard she was biting on it. “I just don’t understand, there are so many
talented jewelry designers in the world, why d o you insist on hiring Luna…“
“Because she is the mother of my children.“ Joshua frowned slightly, then turned and stood at the side of
the bed, looking at the night view outside the window, a whirlpool of emotion in his eyes.
“Don’t worry, sooner or later, she’ll leave with the children. I just want to use work as an excuse to keep
her in the city a little while longer. After all, once she’s gone, I might never see the children ever again.“
Fiona was startled by his words. She narrowed her eyes and studied him from the back. He had poured
in so much time and effort just to see Luna a few
more times. And he claimed it was all for the children? He knew well enough what was the true reason!
However, even though those were her thoughts, the expression on her face was still soft and gentle. “I
understand. Joshua, I’m sorry…I misunderstood you.“ She sighed, her eyes bright with tears, “Will you
forgive me, please? I only considered how uncomfortable I felt seeing you and Luna together, I forgot
about the fact that you’re a father…“
Her weak tone made Joshua feel slightly irritated, though he was not entirely sure of the reason himself.
In the beginning when he first met her, his heart ached upon hearing the critically ill woman’s weak voice,
pitied her for being wrecked with diseases since she was a child. But after spending more time
together…
Every time he heard her talking in this tone, he would feel uncomfortable. Maybe it was because he
found out she was not as nalve as she seemed, so his attitude toward her changed?
At this thought, he sighed, then turned and approached her, laying her down on the bed and tucked her
in gently. “You should sleep, you need to undergo an operation tomorrow.”
“Joshua.” When he retracted his hands and got ready to leave, Fiona bit her lip, reached out, and held
his wrist. “ Can I…make a request? After my body recovers from the surgery… Can I do what Luna did,
and have your baby?”
