Both Joshua and Luna were quiet for a while before Joshua finally smiled. “Okay, as long
as you keep your promise, Ms. Luna. I’m willing to add a passenger on the plane.”
Then, Joshua hung up.
Hearing the disconnecting tone, Luna closed her eyes depressingly.
The flight was at seven. By the time she reached Merchant City, it would be around eleven at night.
She hoped everything would not be too late by then.
Soon, the car reached Bonnie’s mansion. When Luna entered, her three kids were already awake.
Nellie pushed over Luna’s barely unpacked luggage over to her, all teary-eyed.
“Mommy, when are you coming back again? When will we see each other again?”
Neil, on the other hand, was right behind Nellie. He passed Luna a huge bag of food and gifts. ,
“Mommy, the three of us prepared some food and gifts for you.
“This is for you to have on the plane, and some of these are for you to take to Merchant City. The gifts
are paintings and little handcrafts we made for the past six months.”
Neil passed the items to Luna earnestly. “You have to open them and have a good look once you’re
back. There are also a few communications devices that Nigel did for you. If you don’t know how to use
them, call Nellie, and I’ll tell you.”
Looking at how understanding Neil and Nellie were, Luna could not help but walk over and gently hug
them.
Then, she turned around and looked at Nigel who was silently sitting on the sofa.
He was hugging his laptop on the sofa with his head lowered. He looked like he was in a terrible mood.
Looking at him, Luna was heartbroken.
Back then, Nigel was sick when the three kids first left Merchant City. She missed Nigel’s message and
could not send them off at the airport.
Thus, for the past nine months, Nigel had been mad at her. Every time Luna was on a video call with Neil
and Nellie, he would hide far away.
Initially, when she returned that time, Luna planned to improve her relationship with Nigel.
Alas…
| Luna sighed and gently took the laptop in Nigel’s hand away, placing it by the side.
Then, she bent down and gently hugged him. “Nigel, I wanted to properly make it up to you, but
something has happened with your uncle. I must head back to deal with it. If you’re angry with me,
I’ll let you be angry at me, but the next time I’m back, you can’t be angry anymore. Okay?”
Luna’s gentle voice made Nigel bite his lip, his eyes slightly reddened at her gesture.
He bit his lip and looked at Luna closely. “Are we important to you?”
Luna’s heart skipped a beat upon hearing and seeing her son. She sniffled and tightly hugged him.
“Of course, you three are very dear to me.” “Then you have to keep your promise. The next time you are
back, you have to spend time with us.” Nigel hesitated for a while. In the end, he still could not help
himself. He gently pecked on Luna’s face. “I love you.”
His sudden confession calmed Luna’s heart, which was anxious because of Jim. She felt warmth
spreading in her chest.
“You have to go back and settle this calmly,” said Nigel into her ear with a suppressed tone. “Uncle is an
adult. You can’t compete with him in strength. Get Daddy’s help when it’s necessary. He’ll help you.”
Luna was taken aback before realizing that her mature son already knew what she was going back for.
Nigel’s acuteness was at Joshua’s level.
Luna sighed and hugged him tightly. “Okay.”
Nigel sighed and gently said in her ear, “You have to solve it quickly. I already saw Aunt Bonnie booking
a flight to Merchant City two days later.” Luna was stunned by Nigel’s words. If Bonnie were to see Jim in
such a state…
