“I’m sure Nellie is devastated by this…“
Nellie had narrowly escaped death multiple times. Although she was a mentally strong girl, having
encountered hardships and difficulties since she was young, it was still a very emotionally
overwhelming event for a young child to witness her father showing mercy towards the woman who
had almost killed her. It was unforgivable!
“It’s already late now,“ Nigel said, letting out a sigh. “I’ll try to comfort her tomorrow after she wakes up.”
Neil nodded. “Okay.“
Neil was the one who sent Nellie back to be with Joshua. He had done that so that Luna would have a
reason to reach out to Joshua and so that there
would be someone helping her from the inside. However, the situation now spun totally out of his
control. Neil was a bright boy, but even he was at a loss now.
Neil sighed and lowered his head to glance at Luna on the floor below him. She was utterly wasted now
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtat this point.
There was a hotel on the floor above the bar. Malcolm was trying to drag her up the stairs, carrying her
entire weight on his body. Despite that, he was very courteous and did not try to take advantage of her.
Neil let out another sigh at this sight. Sometimes, he really appreciated all the things that his godfather
did for them. However, he could not understand why Malcolm still had not managed to win over Luna’s
heart.
Malcolm laid Luna down on the bed of the hotel room. Then, just as he was about to pour her a glass of
water, his phone rang. He frowned and picked up the phone.
“Sir,“ said a low voice from the other end of the line. “We’ve managed to track Aura down. Joshua has
locked her up in a mental institution.“
Malcolm immediately froze upon hearing this.
“They’re keeping her in the maximum-security ward. It will be impossible for us to break her out without
anyone knowing.“
Malcolm frowned. “Alright, I understand.“ He hung up the phone and lowered his gaze, only to discover
that Luna was staring at him drunkenly. She tugged on his sleeve and said, “I heard… I heard someone
mention Aura’s name.“
Her voice was slurred, but Malcolm could still make out what she said next. “Where is she? I thought
you said you would help me find her and make her pay.“
“This is a lot more difficult than we thought,“ Malcolm replied, patting her head gently. “Joshua has
locked her up somewhere to protect her. We have no idea what to do yet.“
The hopeful look in Luna’s eyes immediately dissipated and was replaced by distress. She did not want
to believe this. She could not believe that the woman who had almost killed her child managed to get
off scot-free.
Malcolm felt a twinge of hurt upon seeing the crestfallen look on Luna’s face. “I promise you, as soon
as I manage to get my hands on her, I will make her pay. In the meantime, you should lie down first. I’ll
get you some water.“
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmLuna nodded obediently and laid down in the middle of the bed. Malcolm turned around and headed
into the kitchen to fetch her a glass of water.
The moment he returned, however, the bedroom was empty. The hotel room door had been flung wide
open, and there was no sign of Luna anywhere.
Malcolm immediately set down the glass of water and picked up his phone in a panic. “Hello, I need
help finding someone! “
Joshua could not sleep a wink.
He was in his study, with a massive pile of documents stacked up on his desk. However, he did not feel
like dealing with work anymore, so he got up and headed out into the garden for some fresh air.
The chilly air outside immediately made him feel better. However, all of a sudden, he caught a whiff of
alcohol. He frowned and turned in the direction where the smell seemed to be coming from.
A drunken woman stood a few feet away, glaring at him. “I hate you.“ She was obviously wasted, but
the hatred in her eyes and tone was adamant. Joshua could not help frowning at this sight.
