Christian carried Luna to a nearby hospital.
Luna had worn thin clothes due to the summer weather, and although her injuries were not serious, she sustained some bruises when she was pinned to the ground.
Also, the floor of the seafood market was dirty. If dirt were to enter her wound and it was not dealt with, the consequences would be dire.
When they got to the hospital, the doctor started to treat Luna’s injuries.
Christian frowned deeply. He could feel the burning pain on the skin just by looking at it.
On the other hand, Luna, whose wounds were being cleaned, made not a single noise.
The sight stunned him. He secretly took a short clip of a video and sent it to Joshua.
When Joshua received Christian’s video, Joshua was already on the way home with Fiona.
He was leaning back in the backseat, and Fiona was lying on his lap, already asleep.
Joshua played the video, and it showed a woman whose wounds were being cleaned up by a doctor.
She did not yell nor wail like any other ordinary lady would. She did not even frown that much.
Joshua sighed.
Luna had always been that way. Whether it was her injuries or if she was in pain, she would not make any sound. She would only bear it herself.
It was just like how he used to treat her so coldly and heartlessly, yet she never once expressed her disappointment or grievances. She still prepared his meal daily, waiting for him to return home.
Luna was too patient and understanding, so much so that he always ignored her existence.
It was until he truly lost her…
Fiona was stunned. The words she wanted to say got stuck in her throat.
After a moment, she pursed her lips and got up from Joshua’s lap cautiously. She sat upright and still next to Joshua.
“Joshua, I said the wrong thing.“
Fiona was actually trying to test Joshua’s bottom line.
Clearly, the result was not what she had expected. Joshua had not spoiled her to the extent she could say whatever she wanted to say.
A wave of disappointment washed over Fiona. Her face was filled with guilt. “I didn’t think too much. I only thought that they’re a good match.“
Joshua narrowed his eyes. “In what way? Luna is like me. She already has six-year-old children. Christian is only nineteen and is still a kid. Is that considered a good match in your eyes?“ Fiona bit her lip. She dug her nails into her palm. “ Yes…I meant looks -wise. Ms. Luna looks young… “
