Luna and Joshua exchanged glances.
The two of them knew very well that Bonnie would make this decision.
She had been reluctant to leave Merchant City in the first place, and after she had found out the truth of
her and Jim’s first encounter during their childhood, it was impossible to convince her to leave.
Therefore, Luna nodded and said, “Alright, then. You can stay here with us and help us regain Jim’s
memories.”
Bonnie let out a bitter chuckle and nodded. “Let’s hope all goes well.”
With that, she turned and went upstairs to her room. “I’ll go change.”
Ten minutes later, she reappeared, dressed in thick clothing and wearing a cap and mask. Not a single
inch of her skin was in sight.
Seeing Luna’s surprised look, Bonnie chuckled and tipped her cap even lower to obscure her face. “I’m
not entirely sure yet if Jim is indeed the boy I met when I was young, and I’m not certain whether
Charlotte had stolen my identity to be together with Jim after I left the orphanage.
“Therefore, I’ve decided to conceal my identity for now as I follow Luna to Landry Mansion so I can
observe their interactions.”
Luna furrowed her brows and said as she strode to the door to grab her coat, “You don’t need t o come
with me to do that. I can observe them for you.”
She glanced at Bonnie and added, “Why don’t…you stay home?”
Before this, Luna thought the reason Charlotte hated Bonnie was that she was Jim’s current girlfriend,
but at this moment, she finally understood everything.
If Bonnie was right, and that Charlotte had indeed stolen Bonnie’s identity to be with Jim…
The first thing she would do to Bonnie if they came face-to-face with each other was to possibly kill her
so that the truth would never resurface.
Therefore, bringing Bonnie to Landry Mansion would be a dangerous mission.
“It won’t be the same.” Bonnie curled her lips into a smile, then strode over to Luna’s side.” It’ll be
different listening to another person’s point of view versus actually being there myself.
“I trust my instincts more.”
Seeing that she had no way of convincing Bonnie otherwise, Luna let out a sigh and relented.
Joshua had told them that he had arranged for a car to bring them to Landry Mansion and had even
asked two of their friends to escort them.
Because of this, Luna initially thought that Joshua must have arranged for Zach and Yuri to escort them,
but as soon as she and Bonnie got into the car, they were shocked to see the two people sitting in the
car.
It was none other than Luke and Gwen.
Luna stared at them in utter disbelief.
She was so shocked that her entire body was frozen in place.
It was only until the driver reminded her that he could not close the door with her standing there that she
finally snapped out of her stupor and got into the car.
“Luna.” Gwen immediately smiled and beckoned her over. “Come sit with me.”
Luna and Bonnie, both utterly stunned, got into the car slowly and sat down across from Luke and Gwen.
“What a surprise, isn’t it?” At this moment, there was not a single trace of the despair and helplessness
in Gwen’s eyes when she was carried away by Luke that morning. Instead, her eyes glowed with gentle
humility.
“Initially, Joshua had called Luke to ask him to send two of his best men to escort you. He had even
emphasized that since Bonnie is pregnant, he has to send the cream of the crop to protect you two.” As
she said this, Gwen smiled at Bonnie adoringly. “I was so happy for Bonnie as soon as I heard the great
news.
“However, the more I thought about it, the more worried I got. I was afraid that you wouldn’t be able to
escape Landry Mansion should Charlotte and Jim get ahold of you, and even then, Luke’s men wouldn’t
be able to save you. “But things will be different if Luke and I escorted you ourselves!”
