Joshua held onto his phone and was silent for a very long time before saying in a hoarse voice, “She
said that I…have never loved her before.”
Luna said that in his heart, Aura, Alice, and Fiona, were more important than her, but what she did not
know was…
He was nice to Aura because he was feeling guilty. He thought that Luna had already passed away, so
he wanted to take good care of her most beloved sister.
He treated Alice nicely because Alice pretended to be her.
Fiona, on the other hand… Joshua closed his eyes.
If Fiona did not donate her bone marrow to Nigel and if Nigel were to die…
Would Luna still live well?
However, Joshua could no longer say those things to Luna. He would not be able to.
Even if he told her, what use was there?
She would still think that he was lying to her. Jude, on the other end of the call, sighed.
“I’ll leave now. Same old place. I’ll keep you accompanied.”
In the villa, Luna was on the balcony on the second floor. She looked at Joshua’s car leaving. Tears fell
silently.
Joshua did not offer any explanation. Not a single sentence.
Other than asking her not to be with Christian, he said nothing else.
He did not even retort saying that he did not care for her or say that he had once liked her.
He tacitly agreed to everything she said.
“Mommy.“
She did not know when he came, but Nigel was standing behind her.
Luna wiped away her tears and forced a smile. She turned around and looked at Nigel.
“Why are you not in bed yet?“
“Why are you not in bed?“ Nigel was hugging onto a thin blanket, standing by the balcony.
“It’s late and getting cold.“ He passed the blanket to Luna.
“If it will make you better by standing here, at least put this on.“
Luna paused for a while. Then, she laughed. She raised her hand and rubbed Nigel’s head.
“You sure are understanding at such a young age.“ “Of course,“ Nigel sighed and said, “are you crying
because of Joshua?“
Luna paused for a while. She touched her blushing cheeks due to crying. She knew she could not hide it
from Nigel, so she nodded.
“How did you know?“
“Besides him, who else would upset you so badly that you would cry here?“
Nigel reached his hand out and gently held Luna’s finger.
“Mommy, although I’m still a child, I might not understand the things between you adults, but…“
Nigel fished out a piece of candy from his pocket and placed it in Luna’s hand.
“Whenever I ‘m in pain, the nurse would give me a piece of candy. She would always say the candy
would relieve the pain. I used to think that she’s childish, treating me as an ordinary kid, but Mommy, why
don’t you try it?“
Luna held onto the candy. She did not know whether to laugh or cry.
“Do you think I’m even more childish compared to you?“
Then, Luna bent down and lifted Nigel up.
“I ‘m not sad and no longer in pain. Let’s go to bed.“ Nigel sighed and nestled himself in Luna’s arms.
“I really don’t know how to cheer you up. It would be great if Neil was here. Every time you’re upset, all
he needs to do is say something and you’ll laugh out
loud happily.”
Upon hearing Nigel mentioning Neil, Luna’s body stiffened a little.
She bit her lips. She was unspeakably upset as if a piece of her heart was missing.
Nigel seemed to have understood what Luna was feeling. He pursed his lips, lifted his gaze, and looked
at Luna seriously.
“Mommy, do you believe that we triplets have a mutual connection? Recently, Nellie and I felt Neil’s
presence. He must still be alive.”
