Realizing that he must have spoken out of turn, Lucas was silent.
Luna furrowed her brows tightly once again. “ Lucas.“ She turned to look at him seriously. “I’m asking
you.“
Only then did Lucas take a deep breath and sigh. He looked in front, driving with difficulty under the
heavy rain while answering solemnly, “Yes. When you met with the accident under the heavy rain back
then, I was with Mr. Lynch at Sea City. He initially thought you pulled a prank on him when he heard you
got into an accident.
“Once he found out everything was real, he… immediately canceled the most important meeting to the
Lynch Group. He abandoned the collaborators that came from far away at Sea City and rushed back to
Banyan City with us.
“It was also because Mr. Lynch stood the collaborators up back then that it hindered the growth of Lynch
Group’s overseas business.“
Lucas sighed.
Back then, Lucas had just graduated from college. He was only a lowly assistant who had been working
for Joshua for not long.
Back then, Lucas witnessed all of Joshua’s stubbornness, madness, and emotional breakdown. Lucas
initially thought that Joshua was a person who could not keep his emotions in check.
Lucas would eventually come to realize that that was the only time Joshua lost control of his emotions for
the past six years.
The longer Lucas worked for Joshua, the more he understood how important Luna Gibson was in
Joshua’s heart.
At that thought, Lucas sighed.
“Mr. Lynch returned to Banyan City when you got into the accident back then. He brought his men and
searched around the seas and Bay Bridge under the heavy rain for a week.
“In the end, when he finally made sure he couldn’t find you, he’d always come to Bay Bridge, staring at
the gaping hole made by the car accident, sitting there in a daze.
“Later on, he started locking himself up in his room and started drinking. That’s how his stomach illness
started…“
The car gradually approached Bay Bridge. Through the heavy rain, Luna could already notice the figure
on the wheelchair, sitting on Bay Bridge.
Luna’s heart sank terribly. She has heard the story multiple times, yet every single time, she did not
believe a single word of it. She thought that it was all fake. She did not believe that Joshua would go to
such an extent for her. He never loved her nor liked her. She never had a place in his heart.
However, at that moment, when she heard what Lucas said and she saw his figure on the bridge, a
strange emotion washed over her.
Soon, the car reached Bay Bridge.
Joshua was quietly sitting in his wheelchair. He was looking at the place where Luna once fell over, his
back facing Luna.
Behind him, Zach and Yuri were already drenched, yet they still diligently held the umbrella for him.
Luna accepted the umbrella from Lucas and got out of the car.
“I said I’m fine. Why are you here again?“
Hearing the sounds of the car door opening, Joshua asked without turning his head around. “Did Nigel
and Nellie fight with Jake?“
Lucas, who was standing behind Luna, was silent for a while before saying, “No. When I went back to
check up on them, the three of them were still doing well. Princess Nellie kept persuading Jake to have
more food. Young Master Nigel, on the other hand, kept his distance with Jake.“
“Nigel is too mature. “ Joshua sighed and looked at the bridge and sea in front of him.
“I thought a lot last night. It was indeed all my fault. I can’t blame anyone. If I were a qualified husband,
things wouldn’t have turned out this way.“
Luna would rather believe Aura than him. The three children, who were only six years old and born
together, would not have started suspecting one another.
Lucas swept a glance at Luna who had been standing there, not saying a word. He sighed and said, “Sir,
this is not your fault.”
