The sounds of Nigel, Nellie, and Anne’s laughter drifted out from within the room. He stood at the
entrance, at an angle where they could not see him, and watched them quietly.
If this scene happened before Nigel’s surgery, Luna would be moved, she would think that there was still
a place for Nigel in this man’s heart.
But it was already nighttime. Nigel’s surgery had been completed successfully. Just now when Anne saw
him, he was still coaxing Fiona to sleep. Coming here now… He must have successfully coaxed her to
sleep, and only came after.
Luna found it ironic. Why was she so blindly in love with him back then?
At that moment, he turned and saw Luna who stood in her spot, holding a full glass of water.
Their eyes met, there was a hint of panic in his eyes.
“Mr. Lynch, you’re leaving so soon? You just saw them for a short while?“ Luna looked at him, her smile
bright and gentle. “Why don’t you stay? Nigel has been waiting for you for a long time.“
He narrowed his eyes slightly. “I’m busy today.“
He had been busy with Fiona’s operation since early in the morning. Even though Fiona’s operation did
not take as long as Nigel’s, it was equally risky. She did not have any other relatives, so he could only
listen to the doctors’ conversation through the CCTV camera to observe Nigel’s operation, and take care
of Fiona at the same time.
After the operation, Fiona forbade him from taking a single step away from her, complaining of pain and
aches all over her body.
Joshua knew that her pain was feigned, she just did not want him to leave and come here to visit Nigel.
He swallowed it all down and did as she asked.
After all, this woman donated her bone marrow to Nigel. He owed him a favor, one that was tied to his
son’s life. That’s why no matter what Fiona did, he would not complain at all.
But even so, throughout the day, not for a single moment did he forget about Nigel’s operation. Only
when Nigel’s operation had ended successfully did he lay down his worries, and coaxed Fiona to sleep.
Only then did he finally have the time to come and visit Nigel.
Luna obviously did not know what he had been up to the whole day. She only knew that even though
Fiona had undergone an operation too, it was not a life-threatening one like Nigel’s. But still, he stayed
by her side the whole day.
She raised her lips in a sneer. “You’ve had a busy day indeed. Your hands were so full with Ms. Blake’s
operation that you did not even have time for us.
Since you’re so busy, maybe you shouldn’t come in the future.“
As she spoke, she lifted her eyebrows in a challenge. “Yesterday you even told me that useless old
documents should be thrown away, have you
forgotten what you said yourself? Since you decided to throw them away, please don’t put up a front
anymore.“
Joshua’s eyes narrowed slightly at her words. He looked at her and was just about to say something
when the door to the ward opened from the inside.
It was Nellie who opened the door. She looked at her parents standing outside with wide eyes. “Mommy,
Daddy?“
A hint of excitement and happiness appeared in the little girl’s eyes.
“Daddy, are you here to visit Nigel?“ The little girl turned and shouted into the room, “Nigel, Daddy is here
to visit you! “
With that, she reached out and grabbed Joshua’s sleeve. “Daddy, come in! “
Joshua frowned and glanced at Luna, then allowed himself to be dragged into the room by Nellie.
Luna stood in her spot, noticed the light that appeared in her children’s eyes as they looked at their
father, and her heart twisted in pain.
The children were smart and sensible, always telling her that they did not care. But their eyes were
honest. Which child would not want his Daddy and Mommy to stay by his side and love him?
But her children’s father…
She sniffed, held her tears in her eyes, and headed into the ward.
