Luna’s single sentence made the entire room fall silent.
Joshua looked at her with narrowed eyes but said nothing.
Fiona bit her lip, she wanted to say something but restrained herself.
Rowena looked as if she had been struck by lightning, even stopping her actions.
“I’ve already examined Ms. Blake’s condition three times, there’s absolutely nothing wrong. Tomorrow The moment the words left her mouth, Joshua hinted at her with his eyes and she immediately corrected herself.
“Ms. Blake will recover by tomorrow.“ With that, she took her medical report and stood up. “Then I ‘ll get out of your way, goodbye.“ All three of them were tough characters to deal with, she did not want to be privy to too many of their secrets. When she left, she kindly closed the door behind her.
The three of them were the only ones left in the enclosed space.
Fiona bit her lip, glanced at Luna, then switched her eyes to Joshua again, finally letting them rest on Luna, grievance filling her eyes. ”Ms. Luna, why? I begged you to keep your distance from Joshua, why did you say you can’t do it? It is because you… ”
Looking at Fiona’s speechless expression, a rush of satisfaction welled up in her chest. She smiled at the two people in front of her and said, ”It’s late now, I won’t get in the way of you resting, goodnight.”
With that, she left without bothering to look at their reactions. After taking a few steps, she retraced her steps, as if she was suddenly reminded of
something, then looked at Joshua faintly and said, “ Right, Mr. Lynch, tomorrow your son, Nigel and I are going to undergo the operation for the bone marrow transplant. Other children will usually have their parents beside them, so I boldly extend you an invitation. If you have the time tomorrow, please visit him at the surgical theatre. He might be happier if you’re there.” With that, she left once more.
Joshua stood in his spot; his eyes narrowed slightly. After Luna’s back completely disappeared at the end of the hallway, Fiona bit her lip, raised her head, and looked at Joshua pitifully. “Joshua, look at her! All I did was make a request, I wouldn’t do anything to her if she refused.”
