Not only that, but Rosalyn and Charles seemed to have good impressions of Sirius.
Joshua could not bring out the video in a circumstance like this.
These were Luna’s parents, who had both just recovered from severe illnesses.
It would not come off nice if he were to pull out evidence suggesting that a close friend of theirs, who had
died more than 20 years ago, had committed murder.
Therefore, Joshua had no choice but to sigh and find an excuse. “Nothing. We just happened to come
across some things related to him when investigating the past.”
He shot Rosalyn a meaningful glance and added, “Initially, I thought Sirius was still alive, so I wanted to
get some more information about him, but since he died more than 20 years ago…
“I’ll look more into this, maybe my team has somehow been on the wrong trail.”
Then, he straightened up and gave both Rosalyn and Charles a bow. “Sir, Ma’am, please excuse me. I
have some stuff I need to take care of. Luna will be here to chat with you guys.”
Rosalyn paused for a moment, and just as Joshua was about to leave, she called after him,” Joshua.”
Joshua froze in his steps and turned to smile politely at her. “What is it, Mother?”
His voice sounded exceptionally melodic when he uttered these two syllables, and Luna could not help
blushing when she heard this.
Maybe it was because of the prospect of almost getting to the bottom of the vengeance between their
two families, but for some reason, Luna could not help feeling a little nervous and shy at the same time.
Rosalyn could not help smiling when she heard Joshua call her that, “Joshua, there’s something I have
to tell you…”
She paused for a moment before adding, “Although, I’m not sure if it truly happened or not since my
memories are still a blur from my coma.”
Joshua furrowed his brows. “Please tell me.”
“I seem to recall Sirius coming to talk to me one day. He told me many things that I don’t remember
anymore, but I recall some of the more shocking things that he told me.
“After I woke up, I’d sometimes dream about Sirius coming to talk to me, but I’m not sure if it truly
happened or not.”
She let out an exhale and fixated her gaze on Joshua’s face. “I dreamed that…Sirius had told me I was
the reason Lucy died.
“If Charles and I hadn’t been engaged, and if I hadn’t fallen in love with Charles first before he fell for
Lucy, she wouldn’t have died at all.”
The color had drained from Rosalyn’s face when she said this. She closed her eyes and said in a
trembling voice, “I still remember how vividly he had described Lucy’s death to me. She… She was raped
by…”
Rosalyn could not finish her sentence after that.
A split second later, she opened her eyes but did not dare to look at Charles. “Sirius told me that Lucy’s
death was he and Larry’s doing, and the reason they never told me that was because I was too kind and
they feared I wouldn’t be able to take it, but now, he was willing to tell me the truth because he thought
I’d never wake up again.”
