Alice searched Joshua’s hotel room for an hour and even sifted through every single piece of paper in
his briefcase, but still could not find anything.
The divorce agreement papers seemingly vanished into thin air without even a single trace.
An hour later, she heard someone knock on the door, followed by Lucas’ low voice. “Sir, it’s time to go
to Larson Group for your meeting.“
“Sir?“ After waiting for a long time but heard no response, Lucas frowned and fished out the backup
keys in his pocket. Then, he shoved it in the keyhole, about to open the door.
Alice immediately panicked when she heard the sound of keys jangling outside and exclaimed, “ Don’t
come in! Joshua and I are in the room together! “
Lucas immediately stopped in his tracks. “Ma’am, it’s time for Sir to attend his meeting. Everyone from
Larson Group is waiting for him.“

Joshua and rocked him awake, calling his name in a gentle voice, “Joshua? Joshua? Why did you fall
asleep?“
It took a while for Joshua to wake up, slowly opening his eyes at last. “What happened?“
Alice gave him a faint smile. “It’s time for your meeting at Larson Group. Lucas has been waiting for
you for a long time now.“
Joshua yawned and immediately stood up, grabbing his jacket before he strode out the door.
Seeing how Joshua did not seem suspicious, Alice sighed in relief and slumped onto the sofa.
Outside the hotel room.
Joshua strolled into the elevator, still clutching his jacket. As soon as the elevator doors closed, he
narrowed his eyes and said, “Lucas, prepare some medicine for me.“
Lucas froze. “What medicine?“ “Alice is trying to drug me.“
Lucas’ eyes widened upon hearing this. “Why would Ma’am want to drug you?“
“I don’t know yet.“ Joshua stared straight in front of him with a steely gaze. “From its effects, I’m
guessing that it’s a kind of sedative. Prepare some antidotes for me.“
Joshua was curious to see what Alice was up to, seeing that she had come all the way to Sea City just
to drug him…
“Oh, and also…“ Joshua furrowed his brows as he watched the numbers above the elevator door
decrease. “Help me track down all the girls in Sea City that are the same age as Gwen and played
‘Lost’ the same time she did.“
As soon as she got back to her hotel, Luna fell into a deep slumber, not bothering to eat even as the
sun began to set.
When evening rolled around, she heard someone knock on her room door.
Luna crawled out of bed in a daze and asked, “Who is it?“
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏm“It’s me…“ Gwen’s timid voice rang out from the other side of the door. “Luna, are you still angry at me?
Can you let me in?“
The confused Luna opened the door.
Gwen was in her wheelchair, and the nurse from the hospital stood behind her.
“Luna. “ Gwen’s face was a little red, and tears still clung on the edge of her eyes. “I thought you
wouldn’t want to see me again…“
Luna felt a little puzzled by this. She let out a yawn and opened the door wider so Gwen could enter the
room.
As soon as she closed the room door, Luna turned around and disappeared into the bathroom to wash
her face. Once she wiped her face dry, she asked, “ Why would I be angry at you?“
Gwen’s jaw dropped open. “But… I called and texted you so many times in the afternoon, and you
didn’t reply to me at all… I had no choice but to ask Luke for permission to come out and visit you with
a nurse.“
Luna paused before she glanced at her phone on the nightstand. There were more than ten missed
calls and messages.
