This time, Luna finally heard him correctly.
She bit her lip, and the answer finally escaped from her mouth.
“I will.”
As soon as she said this, Luna suddenly realized she should not have answered so quickly, without even
a single moment of hesitation,
However, since the words had already gotten out, there was no room to regret it.
Besides, this was the truth.
Luna let out an exhale and stared at Joshua’s face ardently. “Joshua, if the rivalry between the Lynch
and Landry families ceased to exist, I will choose to be with you.”
Everyone knew just how much she loved him.
“In the past, I was even willing to leave everything behind in Sea City and go all the way to Banyan City
to marry you.
“From that moment onward, I’ve known that there is no one else in this world that I, Luna Gibson, will
love more than you.”
Luna let out an exhale and continued, “In the past, I never understood your actions, and I always thought
you didn’t love me back, but after that…”
She glanced at the notes Joshua had laid out on the table and let out another exhale. “After that, I finally
found out that you had returned my adoration after all.
“The only reason we ended up like this was because of our ancestors’ past vengeance, and if all these
ceased to exist—”
Before Luna could finish her sentence, Joshua put down his cutlery and pulled her into his embrace.
His arms were strong and muscular around her shoulder, and his embrace was just as warm and familiar
as she remembered.
Luna could feel her breath catch in her throat the moment she was pulled into his arms.
However, a split second later, she reached out and wrapped herself around his slender waist.
This was the man that she would never be able to forget, not in a million lifetimes.
Even though he had done plenty of things that drove her up the wall, no matter how angry she was, all
the rage dissipated as soon as she saw the lengths he was willing to go to just to help her.
The two of them hugged each other for a long time.
Finally, when Joshua let go of Luna, she pursed her lips and lifted her head to glance at him.”I want to
know…why were you trying to get into my phone last night?”
She had nothing to hide from him.
In the past, Joshua had been so reassured of her love for him that he never doubted her and
thus, never checked her phone.
Similarly, Luna had never checked his phone while he was asleep either.
Not checking each other’s phones seemed to become an unspoken promise between the both o f them.
The fact that Joshua had been trying to get into her phone the night before…
Luna was more inclined to believe that he had done it for another reason instead of being
“You’ll know why in the future.” Joshua curled his lips into a smile and pressed a gentle kiss o n Luna’s
forehead. “I’ll tell you as soon as we settle everything with Jim and the Landry family.
The night before, Joshua could not wait to tell Luna of the discovery he had found out, but at this
moment, after a whole morning of consideration, he decided not to tell her so soon.
Judging from Luna’s personality, she would surely try to investigate this as soon as she found out
someone else was responsible for the rivalry between the Landry and Lynch families.
However, this person was capable of killing Todd, a gangster who had been ruling Merchant City for
more than twenty years.
Because of this, Joshua did not want to put Luna in danger.
Luna’s expression darkened slightly when she noticed that Joshua was unwilling to answer her question.
She sniffed and lifted her head to glance at him once more. “Well, then, can you tell me why you helped
Luke recapture Gwen?”
Joshua furrowed his brows. “I didn’t help him at all.
“Besides, Gwen shouldn’t try to leave him at all.”
“Why?”
“Because…” Joshua narrowed his eves. “Because she will die as soon as she leaves him.”
