Catelyn hoped that the Hughes family would pay for what Denise did. “Okay.” After Luna kissed him,
Joshua chuckled and gently hugged her. If Thomas was not there, he would have hugged her and
kissed her for a while more.
Joshua‘s hug made her feel safe and warm, so much so that when Joshua let her go, she was blushing
“I‘ll be leaving now,” said Luna and quickly left. Hearing her footsteps vanishing in the corridor, Thomas
changed into a more comfortable position and looked at Joshua calmly. “Are you two that close?”
“And what of it?” Joshua smiled and leaned back, looking Thomas in the eye. “We‘re an old couple but
are still head over heels for each other. Seeing you and Yannie, on the other hand… you two don‘t look
like a couple that has just gotten together.”
Yannie was indeed always obedient toward Thomas, but something seemed to be missing.
From how Joshua saw it, for the past few days since they arrived at Saigen City, he had always been
busy with Thomas. However, he realized that Yannie had not contacted Thomas once throughout the
entire duration.
Thomas had even got her to come over, yet she only lowered her gaze, agreeing to whatever Thomas
said. Not only did she not profess her love and concern for Thomas, but she also did not have any
display of affection for him. Not to mention her being like Luna, coming to offer him a kiss at the thought
of counting her in.
Joshua‘s words deflated Thomas. He slumped into the sofa.
Thomas closed his eyes and sighed. “I thought that if I brought her back to Saigen City, it‘d be better,
but I never expected that…” Thomas chuckled bitterly. “The environment in Saigen City is worse than
Merchant City.
“Because I‘ve reappeared in Saigen City, others could see that my return this time is to fight for the
Howard family estate, so many heiresses have been trying to get close to me. “Yannie…can’t take it.
She‘s always had low self–esteem, and she feels that she‘s so far disconnected from my world, that
she‘s not good enough for me.”
For the past few days, Yannie mentioned breaking up a couple of times.
Every time, he would tell her sternly that he had no plans of breaking up with her. He did not feel that
she was not good enough for him. At the thought of that, Thomas frowned.
“That‘s because you did not give her enough sense of security.” As someone who had been in such a
situation, Joshua perfectly understood the state Thomas and Yannie were in.
It was just like him and Luna seven years ago. Because he had trouble communicating, she always
believed he disliked her. She did not have much sense of security, which was what Aura took
advantage of, and this caused a long string of catastrophes…
At that thought, Joshua paused for a while. “Once things are over, Luna and I will help you.”
“Mmh.”
At The Spring Resort, when Luna and Yannie arrived, Gwen had been washed by the people serving
her for the fifth time.
No matter how drunk she was, she should be sober by then.
She changed her clothes and sat on the ground pitifully. Her eyes were filled with grievances. “Luna,
they lied to me. They said that they found me at the dump station.”
