Luna glanced at the surveillance footage and realized that the woman who had left with Sean was none
other than Kate.
Since Kate was the one who had brought Sean out, that meant he was not in danger.
After coming out of the nurses' station, Luna shot Yannie an apologetic look and said, "My bad,I never
thought that someone would take Sean away...Do you want to stay here and wait for him to return, or
do you want to visit Riley with me?"
Yannie glanced at the empty room and could not help feeling a little uneasy at the thought of waiting for
a strange man she had never met before to return to his room.
Therefore, she turned to smile at Luna.
"I'll go visit the little girl with you, Ms.Luna."
Yannie had heard plenty of things about Riley from her mother, and according to Mrs.Flores, Riley was
the baby who had been switched out with Joshua and Luna's daughter.
However, after finding out that Riley was not their daughter, neither Joshua nor Luna changed their
minds about her and instead loved and cherished her even more.
Not only that, but even after Riley fell sick, they were willing to pour money and effort into ensuring her
recovery.
Because of Mrs.Flores’ description, Yannie always had a good impression of Luna, and since Luna was
going to visit Riley, Yannie could not help thinking that Luna was the kindest, most gentle woman she
had ever met.
Luna was sensitive to her emotions—she had helped her escape an awkward situation at Joshua's
house—and even consoled her when crying about her past.
At this point, Yannie could not help thinking...how amazing would it be if Luna was her sister? If, as
Luna suggested, she and Joshua's cousin hit it off and became a couple, did this mean that she and
Luna would become family? This was the reason Yannie had requested Luna to bring her to meet
Sean.She did not care what kind of person Sean was, nor did she care about his looks.
All she wanted was to find a reason to become Luna's friend or, better yet, family.
"Come on."
Luna furrowed her brows when she saw Yannie staring dazedly at her toes waved her hand in front of
Yannie's face.
Then, she grabbed hold of Yannie's arm and dragged her into the elevator.
After getting into the elevator, Yannie finally snapped out of her stupor.
"What happened to Riley, anyway?"
"She's malnourished from her previous parents' negligence, leading to health problems now."
Luna sighed and stared at the elevator doors as she explained, "Initially, I thought that as long as
Joshua and I treated Riley well—treated her like she was our daughter—everything would be okay, but
Joshua reminded me that we still need to track down Riley's parents as soon as we can.
"After all, this is their child, and it'll be one thing if they didn't care for her, but another thing entirely if
they had been searching for her all this while."
Then, she let out a bitter chuckle and said, '' However, I'm guessing that Riley's birth parents must've
given up on her already.Even after an extensive search, we can't seem to find any trace of them at all.
"The person who switched out the babies that night had told us where he found Riley, but strangely
enough, according to the hospital records, there hadn't been a single labor that night."
The more Luna talked about it, the more peculiar it seemed.
"Even if the child was found by accident, that wouldn't explain the fact that there had been no labors in
the hospital that night, would it?"
"Perhaps the mother didn't want anyone to know she had given birth..."
Yannie sighed.
"Like me, on the day I went into labor, I begged the doctors to change the details on my file to say '
gynecologic surgery' instead of ‘child delivery'.
"Perhaps, Riley's mother had done the same..."
