“Even… Even if it means I can only see him from afar.”
Seeing how determined Bonnie was, Luna bit her lip, unsure of what to say.
“Let her go.” All of a sudden, a voice rang out from the stairs.
The two women in the kitchen lifted their heads to gaze in the direction of the voice
Joshua, dressed entirely in black, strode down the stairs elegantly and said, “Bonnie won’t be able to get
the rest she deserves anyway if she doesn’t get to see Jim, but…”
Joshua turned and shot Bonnie a stern glance. “You must promise Luna that when following her to
Landry Mansion, you have to pretend to be a servant, and you’re not allowed to talk to Jim or even meet
him privately.
“You can’t let him know that you’re pregnant with his child.”
Joshua walked down the final step, strode into the living room, and plopped down on the sofa. “I
managed to get an idea of the current situation from Roanne just now.
“As of now, Jim has not only lost his memories, but his mind is now being controlled by Charlotte as well.
“He trusts Charlotte with all his heart now, and if you accidentally let her know about the child, she’ll
definitely try to get rid of it, according to her jealous personality.”
The color drained from Bonnie’s face as soon as she heard this.
She bit her lip and dug her nails into her palms. Her entire body was as stiff and cold as ice. “I…
“I understand that you desperately want to see Jim after finding out about your pregnancy, but you can
only do so this one time.”
Joshua lifted his head to stare intently at Bonnie. “I’ve already arranged a flight for you to
“Craig Group is in Banyan City, as well as everything you’ve ever known. On top of that, I’ve contacted
Jude to help you. He’s my friend and a distant cousin of yours, so he’ll definitely take good care of you.”
Bonnie gnawed on her lip when she heard this. “You…”
She wanted to challenge Joshua and ask him what gave him the right to map out her life like this without
her permission, but at the same time, she knew that he was doing this for her own good.
Merchant City was both the Landry and Quinn families’ territories.
Even someone as powerful as Joshua had yet to establish a stable foundation here in this city, much
less a weak, pregnant woman like her.
She could not possibly rely on Joshua and Luke to protect her forever, could she?
74
They were not obliged to take care of her and the baby inside her belly.
The person who was, however…
A twinge of pain spread through Bonnie’s heart as soon as she remembered Jim.
She let out an exhale and shot Joshua an earnest and grateful look. “Thank you.”
Joshua glanced at her impassively, then at Luna. “I’m not just doing this to help you, but more so for
Luna’s sake. If there’s someone you need to thank, it’s her.”
Bonnie bit her lip and turned her head to glance at Luna.
Before she could even utter her words of gratitude, however, Luna furrowed her brows and shot Joshua
a cold look. “I don’t agree.”
Amid Bonnie’s shocked expression and Joshua’s confusion, Luna let out an exhale and continued, “I
don’t agree to let Bonnie leave Merchant City just like that.
“Even though Jim doesn’t remember her now, I’m confident that he’ll one day be able to recall her, but if
she leaves just like that…” She bit her lip. “I’m worried that he’ll never be able to regain his memories of
her.”
