With that, he released Nellie and stood up. “I’m going into the mountains.“
He did not know what Fiona was planning to do by taking Nigel hostage, but since it had already happened, he had
no choice but to counter.
Joshua turned around and glanced at Nellie with an expression of determination. “Don’t worry. no matter what
happens, I ’11 bring Nigel back with me.“
As soon as he said this, Joshua strode out of the basement.
Joshua turned around.
Luna was still standing within the room. She reached out her arm toward him and said, “Pull me out of here. I’m
going with you.“
Joshua glanced at Luna, taking in her thin frame. A few days ago, she was so weak that she could not even walk by
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtherself, but at this moment, she was willing to go into the mountains with him amid a thunderstorm.
Joshua remained silent for a moment but did not reach out to grab her hand. “I can go by myself.“
The weather was so bad that he did not want her to risk hurting herself if there was a natural disaster.
“Why do you want to go by yourself?“ Luna narrowed her eyes and fixated her frosty gaze on him. “Are you going
to save Nigel or your precious Ms. Blake?“
A pained expression flashed briefly through Joshua’s eyes.
He could not believe that at this moment, Luna still thought the reason he wanted to go into the mountains was to
save Fiona.
Did she trust him that little?
He lowered his head and glanced at Luna once more.
The look in her eyes was crystal clear and determined, as though telling him that she did not trust him at all.
“I have to go and find Nigel myself. I don’t trust anyone else.“ Luna’s gaze was unfaltering. “If you don’t want to pull
me up, nor take me along with you, Mr. Lynch, then I’ll go by myself.“
With that, she gripped the railing on the basement wall with both her hands.
However, Joshua could not help but notice her left hand—the one with the broken little finger—start to tremble
vigorously.
Beads of sweat collected at Luna’s forehead.
It was clear she was in tremendous pain, but she still clutched the railing tightly in an attempt to pull herself out of
the basement.
Joshua’s expression darkened at this sight. Finally, he let out an exhale and could not bear to watch any longer, so
he strode over, grabbed hold of Luna’s right arm, and pulled her out of the basement.
As soon as she landed back on her feet, Luna let out an exhale of relief. Her entire head was covered in sweat, but
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmshe wasted no time tidying herself up. Instead, she stormed out of the villa, dragging Joshua behind her.
The two of them made their way into the mountains according to the directions Nellie had given.
Before long, Luna caught sight of a shoe snagged on a tree branch. It was Nigel’s shoe!
Luna bit down on her lip as soon as she saw this. She knew that Nigel had left this shoe here on purpose so that
they could find him.
She immediately tucked the shoe away and followed Joshua on their remaining journey.
The mountain trail was steep and treacherous. On top of that, the bad weather conditions made the hike even
more challenging than usual. Luna was almost blown off the cliff by the landslide and strong wind numerous times.
However, every time this happened, she managed to evade harm by either her own determination or with Joshua’s
help.
Following the trail that Nigel had left behind, the two of them soon arrived at the peak of the mountain. “I didn’t
think you’d arrive so soon.” Fiona’s cold voice rang out as soon as they arrived at the mountaintop.
