This was why Luna had asked Joshua to contact Luke instead.
“She’s fine.” Joshua regained his composure and replied impassively, “Gwen vomited blood because of
an old stomach ulcer. You know she’s been having gastric problems since a long time ago.
“She got a nasty shock when she saw what happened to Bonnie and your mother, and this triggered her
old problem. Luke said that she’s fine now and just needs to rest.”
Luna felt the weight lift off her shoulders. She sighed and said, “Thank God she’s okay.”
It was exhausting enough having to care for both Bonnie and Rosalyn, and if anything bad happened to
Gwen, too… Luna did not know how she could possibly split herself into three parts so she could look
after all three of them.
“How’s Rosalyn now?” Joshua quickly changed the topic as soon as he noticed that Luna did not suspect
a thing
“She’s awake now, and my father is bringing her over to visit Bonnie.” Luna could not help lamenting, “As
soon as she woke up, the first person she asked about was Bonnie, and the second was Gwen.
“After finding out that Bonnie was fine despite her miscarriage, she kept asking questions about Gwen,
and some were oddly specific. Judging by how
worried she seemed, I would’ve thought Gwen was gravely ill or something…” Joshua narrowed his
eyes.
“Perhaps in her eyes, vomiting blood is something far more serious than suffering a miscarriage.”
Then, he reached out to hold Luna’s arm and said, ” We should go visit her, too.”
Luna nodded and followed Joshua to Bonnie’s room.
They had just taken a few steps when they bumped into a doctor in a white coat.
The doctor greeted Joshua enthusiastically when he saw him, “Mr. Lynch! I’ve managed to find some
information about that heart transplant you were asking me about, and”
Before he could finish his sentence, Joshua shot him a cold look, and he immediately clamped his mouth
shut.
The doctor had not seen Luna walking behind Joshua and, thus, thought he was here alone.
The moment he spotted Luna, the doctor knew he had made a mistake by bringing up the heart
transplant in front of her. He mustered an awkward smile. “Pardon me; I’ve mistaken you for someone
else.”
Then, he turned scampered away as fast as his feet could bring him.
Luna remained motionless, frowning as she watched the doctor leave.
She turned to glance at Joshua. “What heart transplant was he talking about?”
Joshua, however, pretended not to have noticed and pulled her toward Bonnie’s room. “Didn’t he say he.
mistook me for someone else?”
An uneasy feeling arose in Luna’s heart as she stared at Joshua’s tall, broad back.
Her gut feeling was telling her that the doctor had not been mistaken at all.
He had greeted Joshua as “Mr. Lynch” and trotted toward him excitedly
Could there be another man in Merchant City who resembled Joshua and possessed the same
surname? However, before she could ponder the details, they arrived at Bonnie’s room.
Bonnie was still unconscious.
Jim was sitting next to her bed, holding her hand in silence.
Charles was helping Rosalyn into another chair, and Rosalyn was weeping. “Jim, don’t you know how
bad Bonnie’s health was? She suffered severe health consequences when she gave birth to Harvey due
to the negligence of the doctor at that illegitimate clinic.
“It’s extremely difficult for her to get pregnant now, much less keep a baby in her belly for two months!
But you… “You killed your second child yourself!”
