“Luna, I wanted to tell you about this after Thomas comes back, but…” Joshua paused for a while
before he continued, “From the looks of it, maybe we can sit by the sidelines and watch for now. If
Thomas can handle the matter this time, then we should trust that he has the ability to take care of
Yannie and Riley.
“I know that you both aren‘t on the best of terms due to your past conflict, but if he can handle it well
this time, maybe we should give him a chance. After all…”
He sighed. “After all, Riley is his daughter. Maybe he and Yannie could give Riley something we can‘t.”
Luna‘s knuckles protruded as she gripped her phone tightly. She understood everything Joshua had
said, but..
“Okay,” came Luna‘s simple reply after a deep inhale before she hung up.
She closed her eyes and adjusted her sitting posture to feel more comfortable after putting the phone
down.
Her feelings were tumultuous at the moment, and admittedly, she was a little sad.
They finally found Riley‘s parents…but they were not what she imagined.
Originally, Luna had a glimmer of hope. She selfishly thought that if Riley‘s parents were the
irresponsible type and could not take good care of Riley, she could keep Riley by her side. With that,
she at least had Riley with her if they failed to locate her daughter. She had a solid reason and
consolation to continue with her life.
In spite of that, her selfish thoughts and hopes were shattered at this very hour.
Yannie and Thomas were Riley‘s parents.
Luna still remembered how Yannie cried in front of her and said how the trauma of losing her baby still
haunted her. Thomas, on the other hand…
Originally, Luna did not think he was a responsible person. However, according to Joshua, Thomas
came to Merchant City because of Riley, and he went after Luna and Joshua because of the infant.
No matter how much Luna disliked Thomas, she had a hard time convincing herself Thomas did not
like Riley.
Thus..
Luna closed her eyes. Despite her helplessness and devastation, she had to give Riley back to her
parents.
Riley was about to leave her.
Where was her birth daughter, then?
The news on the internet was dealt with swiftly. Within half an hour, Hugo discovered all the news
about Yannie on the internet was deleted. There were still a few netizens discussing it, but they were
not able to cause any detrimental damage.
Touched by this change, he looked at Yannie. “Yannie, who are your friends? How are they this
capable? I could only think of two people who could take down that news in such a short period–Mr.
Howard EcYd_“İL Joshua Lynch!”
Yannie bit her lip and stayed quiet for a moment. Then, she said, “Joshua Lynch was the one who
helped me.”
Hugo was silent
Seconds later, he slapped his forehead. “That‘s right. You had a rumor with him before.” Then, he
looked at Yannie curiously.
