“Doctor, didn’t you say I have to take a drip?“
Luna turned and glanced at the doctor. “Do you want to take it now?“
The doctor frowned, then realized he might have misspoken, and left after leaving behind the words. “ I’ll
go prepare it now.“
After the doctor left, Joshua lowered his eyes and looked at Neil who was still unconscious.
Then, he turned his head and looked at his reflection in the glass windows.
Somehow, they did… look alike.
He studied his reflection in the mirror, a smile at the corners of his lips. “I wouldn’t have realized it if he
didn’t say anything.“
On the surface, Luna looked calm and collected, but deep down, she was panicking!
Joshua was a very perceptive man; she was worried he would notice something.
Previously, even though she successfully tricked him by using the excuse that she was Luna Gibson’s
good friend, but the children…that would be hard to explain.
Taking in a deep breath, she smiled, her eyes narrowing into thin crescent moons and glanced at
Joshua, “Maybe all good-looking people look alike. My ex-husband is definitely not as good-looking as
Neil.“
Joshua lifted his eyebrows slightly, but said nothing.
Very soon, the doctor brought the drip over and the nurse inserted it into Neil’s arm.
Luna took a stool and sat beside the little guy, guarding him quietly.
Joshua stood beside the door, his tall, lengthy figure leaning on the doorframe, his gaze that was locked
on both mother and son turning dark and meaningful.
The next day.
Sunshine lit up the entire room, and Luna gradually stirred from her sleep.
She opened her eyes, and immediately, the bright sunlight entered her eyes.
She… was sleeping in the bedroom in Blue Bay Villa?
She was startled and immediately lifted the blankets and jumped out of bed.
It was already daytime?!
Was she not looking after Neil in his hospital ward while he was being given his drip?
“Ms. Luna, you don’t have to be so violent when getting out of bed.“
An angry child’s voice was heard, Luna frowned and looked in the direction of the voice.
Nellie was pulling the blankets off her head angrily. “ You’re going to suffocate me! “
Luna was startled, then realized she had been too agitated when she lifted the blankets off of her, as a
result, the blankets had instead fallen on Nellie, burying her within them.
She rubbed at her forehead, pulling Nellie into her arms carefully, “Why am I here?“
“Last night you fell asleep when you were looking after Neil while he was taking his drip. Then, after Neil
woke up, he and Daddy brought you back together! “
With that, the little girl leaned into her mother’s ear and whispered carefully, “Last night, Daddy carried
you back from the hospital. Did you dream about Daddy? When you were talking in your sleep, you kept
yelling his name.“
Luna stiffened immediately.
Last night… she did dream about the man he was when she first got to know him.
But…
She pursed her lips. “How did he react… to my sleep talk?“
Even though Luna did not mention him by name, Nellie knew she was talking about Joshua.
The little girl shrugged. “Daddy didn’t show much of a reaction, but he was in a good mood, he even
carried you back home! “
Luna furrowed her brows and remained silent for a while, then raised her head. “Where’s Neil?“
“In his own room, he doesn’t want to see anyone.“
Nellie jumped out of her mother’s arms, reached out and grabbed her hands. “It hurts me to see his face
all red and swollen like that.”
Luna was dragged by Nellie to Neil’s room.
This was a boy’s room which Joshua specifically decorated for Neil.
Luna thought Joshua would just view Neil as the son of his ex-wife’s best friend, so he would not treat
Neil with the same care and love as he did Neil
