At that thought, Luna immediately lifted her head and looked at Joshua seriously.
“Can you help out? Bonnie…”
Joshua heard the call between Luna and Nigel clearly. He looked at Luna deeply. “Are you planning to
look for Bonnie before she finds Jim?”
Luna nodded, “Mmh.”
She had to tell Bonnie the truth before Bonnie got hurt. Otherwise, not only would Bonnie be sad, but
she would also lose hope for Jim, too.
“There is no need.”
Joshua took a deep breath. He raised his hand and gently combed Luna’s hair behind her ear.
“Even if you tell Bonnie about Jim’s condition, do you think she won’t look for him to find out what’s going
on?”
Luna bit her lip. “I’m only afraid that she’ll get hurt.”
“That’s inevitable.”
Joshua took a deep breath. He combed the last strand of hair behind her ears before retreating his hand.
“But, I’ll still send someone to help you look for her.”
Luna bit her lip. She lowered her gaze and looked at her fingers.
Joshua furrowed his brows at Luna thanking him. He went in closer, placed his hands on both sides of
Luna, and looked at her closely.
“Other than ‘thank-yous’, is there nothing else you can say to me?”
Joshua’s handsome angular face inched closer.
Luna looked at his handsome face up close, and her heart inexplicably started to beat wildly. Her face
had started to redden, too.
They had never been this close physically for such a long time. She did not even dare to look at his eyes,
fearing she might fall for him.
In the end…she still fell for him.
She looked at his face and could no longer hold back. She immediately wrapped her arms around his
neck and kissed his thin lips.
An electric current spread from the lips throughout her entire body.
After kissing him, Luna suddenly panicked. She subconsciously realized that she did something she
should not do, even if she could not help it. She kissed someone that she should not kiss.
She immediately let go of his arm and their lips split apart. She wanted to apologize.
However, Joshua held the back of her head with one hand and grabbed her waist with the other.
She could not escape.
After a long while, Luna’s cheeks were flushed, her breaths rapid, and only then did he let her go with a
sigh of relief.
Luna cowered toward the head of the bed. She wanted to say something but was suddenly at a loss for
words.
It was as if whatever she said was inappropriate for the moment.
Rest well. Don’t worry about the Landrys right now. With me here, Jim can’t do much.”
Then, he turned around and left.
Luna leaned against the head of the bed, looking at Joshua’s tall figure. She lifted her hand and touched
her lips.
The kiss a moment ago was still lingering on her lips.
“Joshua.” Looking at his back, Luna sniffled. “…”
Joshua stopped in his tracks. He turned around, gently smiled, and looked at her.
“What? Are you trying to thank me again?” They did not need to be so polite with each other, but if she
wanted to say it, he was willing to listen to her.
She took a deep breath and fixed her gaze on him.
