The pressure in the hospital ward lowered considerably.
Joshua’s cool, dark eyes glared at Luna who stood at the doorway.
Lucas knew the following conversation was not suitable for his eyes, so he turned and left, not
forgetting to close the door behind him as he did.
With the door closed, Joshua and Luna were left in the closed space of the hospital ward. The air was
empty except for the voice of the news anchor reading out the news about Banyan City on the
television.
The two of them stared at each other for a long time before finally, Joshua leaned on the headboard,
his eyes cold and distant. “You’re here early in the morning and purposely brought out last night’s
events. It seems you’re very disappointed, yes?“
Luna’s entire body shuddered slightly.
She laughed lightly. “Firstly, Mr. Lynch, I didn’t come to the hospital to visit you. Lucas was the one who
misunderstood me and pulled me here.
Secondly, I am indeed very disappointed about last night’s events. As a man, I look down on you for
giving up halfway through. Finally…“
She looked at him, and a condescending smile graced her features. “If you’d like to continue, I’m
always ready. After all, it’s not like we haven’t done it before.“
His expression darkened.
At that moment, the morning news finished the traffic report as the female news anchor’s beautiful
voice rang through the ward, “In the past few days, during his interview, Mr. Joshua Lynch said he’d
continue waiting for his ex-wife to return.
“He also hopes that his ex-wife, Luna Gibson, would understand his sincerity in waiting for her return
after she sees this news report.“
It was particularly ironic to hear a news report when they were both in such a state.
Luna’s lips curled up in a taunting smile. All these years, he built himself an image as a loyal, doting
husband. If it was not because Luna knew him too well, she almost believed him.
Time and time again, he had expressed his impulsive desire for the current Luna, yet he acted as if all
he could think of and all he missed was the old Luna Gibson.
Disgusted, she smirked coldly at the thought. “I see; it’s because you still love your ex—wife deeply.
Your love for her is as deep as the seven seas.“
Her taunt and ridicule were obvious in her tone.
Joshua narrowed his eyes, grabbed the remote control, and threw it at the television.
With a bang, the news stopped.
“Get out, “ he opened his mouth, voice freezing cold like a January snowstorm.
Luna laughed lightly. “I didn’t come here to visit you in the first place, so thank you for letting me go.“
With that, she smiled faintly and walked toward his bedside, raised her hand, and took the fruits and
gifts from the top of the bedside cabinet. “Goodbye.“
Joshua squinted as he eyed her leaving form, holding the gifts in her hands, and eyes as long as a
frozen lake.
Luna clutched the gifts and walked to Natasha’s hospital ward. The news about Aura studying abroad
in Australia repeated on television.
Standing at the doorway, Luna looked at Natasha, her eyes fixed on the television as the nurse fed her
patiently, and she felt a prick of residual jealousy.
In the end, Aura was still the one her mother carried in her heart.
Even though she knew about the things Aura did to Nellie, she was still worried about Aura…
“Are you here to see the patient?“
She did not know how much time had passed when a nurse’s voice pulled her out of her thoughts.
The nurse’s voice made Natasha look toward them.
“Ms. Luna?“ She frowned and hesitated for a second but still forced a smile onto her face. “Come in.“
Luna pursed her lips, sighed, and entered the room as she placed the fruits and health supplements on
the bedside cabinet.
