If that happened, then even if Luna managed to give birth to her new baby and save Nigel, she and her
child would still be forever indebted to Gwen.
As soon as she thought of this, Luna let out a sigh and lowered her voice. “Have you forgotten that
Luke’s men are protecting me? You don’t have to worry about Jason. As for Alice, I haven’t seen her in
a long time now. Besides, she’s after Joshua, not me. I just have to keep my distance from him for the
time being.
“I’ll try to convince Luke to let you do the surgery as soon as possible… I ‘ll leave this country as soon
as you’ve undergone the abortion.“
Gwen paused for a moment, then nodded in agreement. She sighed and grabbed hold of Luna’s hand.
“You and your child will be fine.“
As soon as Joshua got back to the hotel, Alice immediately went up to him. First, she took his jacket
and hung it on the coat rack, then retrieved his slippers for him like an obedient wife. She led him to the

Joshua sat down at the dining table, gracefully
picked up a spoon, and took a bite. “It tastes good. “
“Really? You’ve been busy at work and away from home a lot lately, so I specially researched what
desserts to make and decided to enroll in a cooking class,“ Alice lied.
She was right about enrolling in a cooking class. However, contrary to what she claimed, the cooking
class was just an activity for her to pass the time. The crème brûlée that she claimed to have made
herself actually came from the restaurant downstairs.
Alice thought she had concocted the perfect lie, but she forgot that she had left the takeout box in the
trash can next to the hotel room door.
Joshua had noticed the takeout box as soon as he entered the room, though he did not feel like
exposing Alice’s lies.
“That’s so sweet of you.“ Joshua smiled as he took another bite. “It’s delicious. You can probably sell
this if you want.“
Alice blushed when she heard this and feigned modesty. “I’m happy that you like it.“ With that, she
brought out another bowl of crème brûlée for Joshua.
After Joshua finished both of them, he yawned and propped his head in his hand, leaning against the
dining table. “Maybe I’m just too tired today.“
When she saw this, Alice knew that her drug was already starting to take effect. She immediately went
over to help Joshua up. “If you’re tired, you should go to bed and rest.“
Then, propping Joshua against her body, she strode into the bedroom and laid him on the bed. She
gently removed his clothes and helped him get changed into a fresh set of pajamas.
“Get some rest, “ she said, clutching Joshua’s clothes.
However, the man seemed to have fallen asleep already. Joshua said nothing in response as Alice
instead heard only his breathing.
It seemed the drug had exerted its effects.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmAlice curled her lips into a sneer and tiptoed out of the room, still holding Joshua’s clothes to her form.
She left the door slightly ajar behind her, so Joshua could still see her. He watched as she laid his
clothes down one by one on the living room carpet and rummaged through every article of clothing.
After combing through his clothes for a while to no avail, Alice still did not give up and instead went
through everything once again. Her search was so detailed that when she found a piece of tissue in
Joshua’s pocket, she even laid it out and scrutinized it.
“How can this be…“ Even after her second search yielded no results, Alice conducted a third one,
frowning in bafflement.
This could not be. She had looked through the entire house and even Joshua’s office after he had left
for Sea City.
She even scoured the hotel room while he was out during the day, but she could not find the divorce
papers. Therefore, she was certain that Joshua had taken the papers out with him, but…why could she
not find them?
Amid her confusion, Alice suddenly heard a cold voice ringing out from the direction of the bedroom,
“Need any help?“
