“You did it for Nigel, right? Why did you not tell me earlier? If you would have told me, I wouldn’t have
misunderstood you. I wouldn’t have hated you, I wouldn’t even…have let the things that happened today
happen.“
Joshua smiled with difficulty. “But, back then…I hoped that you would hate me.“
Back then, Joshua thought that Neil had truly died. He thought that there would always be Neil’s death
between Luna and him. They were irreconcilable.
Under such a situation, to get her to hate him and leave him was the best option. However, at that
moment…
Joshua used his final remaining strength and grabbed hold of Luna’s hand.
“Now, I hope that you and I could…for Neil…have a fake marriage.“ Joshua spat those words out with
difficulty and closed his eyes.
Luna was completely taken aback. Joshua mentioned a fake marriage. Turns out, all this while, when he
asked her to marry her it was just a fake marriage, yet Luna misunderstood his intentions. She thought
the worst of him.
Luna gritted her teeth. Tears fell once more.
“I’m sorry…I’m sorry! “ She had to apologize to him for many things. Too many things.
Joshua smiled. “All this while, I should be the one to say sorry…“
Both of them apologized to each other back and forth when the ambulance reached the hospital. Joshua
was pushed into the operation theater. Luna was sitting alone by the operation theater entrance. Looking
at the sign. Her heart was extremely broken. It was sufferable.
“Ma’am.“ Lucas immediately rushed out of the elevator. He almost fell to the ground frantically.
“Is Mr. Lynch alright?“
Luna shook her head. She lifted her head and looked at Lucas. “Where were you just now?“
Lucas sighed and sat on the floor looking disheveled. He blamed himself and hit his head while saying
depressingly, “After you left the beach, all the guests left too. Nellie felt that she had made a mistake that
has caused a rift between you and Mr. Lynch. She kept crying and won’t stop no matter how we coaxed
her.
“Mr. Lynch’s body was not in a great shape too, he could not keep coaxing her, so he got me to
personally send princess Nellie and Young Master Nigel back to the Blue Bay Villa.
“I was afraid that the bodyguards won’t be able to coax Nellie and things might happen on the journey
home, so I arranged for a few bodyguards to stay back and guard Mr. Lynch while I sent the children
back.
“Once we were in Blue Bay Villa, Nellie refused to go to bed no matter what. I promised her that I would
get you back and made sure you would reconcile with Mr. Lynch, then only did she let me leave.
“Then, when I came out from Blue Bay Villa, I heard that Mr. Lynch got into an accident…”
Lucas kept hitting his own head. “It’s my fault. I didn’t protect Mr. Lynch. I should not have agreed to him
and let him have that cortisone shot, nor let him prepare the birthday party without any regard for his
injuries. I should not have left him alone…”
Luna sat in the same spot, looking at Lucas’s reaction. Her heart ached.
After a while, Lucas stopped and looked at Luna closely.
“Ma’am, you’re the first one to reach the beach when Mr. Lynch met with the incident. Did you…” Lucas
took a deep breath. “Did you see anyone suspicious?”
Luna paused for a while. A suspicious person?
Instantly, a chill ran down her spine. That was because the only person she saw at the beach was Neil.
