Chapter 833
Luna nodded at Steven before turning to leave.
As he stared at Luna's diminishing silhouette, a hint of sympathy flashed across Steven's eyes.
After a moment of deliberation, Steven picked up his pace and strode in the direction Luna had left.
By then, Luna had arrived at the hospital garden.
Her face was red from running too quickly as she bent her body and placed her hands on her knees, panting for air.
After a while, she lifted her head to look at the moon. Tears poured continuously from the corner of her eyes,
leaving a wet trail on her small face.
When Steven caught up to Luna, he saw her standing in the middle of the garden. The moonlight illuminated the
tear streaks on her delicate face, and her shoulders shook uncontrollably from crying too hard.
A frown appeared on Steven's face as he stared at Luna.
“Ms. Garcia, are you alright?”

while?”
Ever since Luna found out that Natalie was Sam's woman, she seemed to be in low spirits.
After Natalie woke up and went to find Sam, Luna exited the ward with a disheveled look.
Upon seeing the scene in front of him, it only took Steven a few seconds to figure out Luna's feelings for Samuel.
“Love cannot be forced.” Steven took out a piece of tissue and passed it to Luna. “Sam is head over heels for
Natalie and would never spare another woman a look in his entire lifetime. You're an amazing woman, and you're
the heir of the Garcia family. I hope you can let it go and move on.”
With tears in her eyes, Luna blinked in puzzlement. “What are you talking about?”
“Was I not clear enough?” The frown on Steven's face deepened. “You and Sam will never be together.”
Luna gaped at Steven, speechless. “Mr. Steven, why would you say that?”
“Was I wrong?”
“What has any of this got to do with Mr. Samuel?”
“You're not upset because of Sam?” Steven asked, confused.
“No.” Luna's eyebrows furrowed. “My crying has nothing to do with Mr. Samuel.”
“Then...” Steven faltered.
“My... grandpa passed away.” Luna crinkled the piece of tissue in her hand as her tears streamed down once again.
“Before he passed, he had asked me to treat and take care of Mr. Samuel. I had prepared myself to bid him
farewell, yet when I received the news of his death this morning, I was still saddened that I wasn't even around to
see him one last time and say goodbye.”
Luna sniffed. “My folks died in a war a long time ago. Grandpa was the one who raised me and loved me the most,
yet I wasn't even by his side during his last moments on earth.”
It was only after hearing her explanation did Steven realize he had misunderstood Luna.
“I'm so sorry. I assumed that you're upset because of Sam...” Steven rubbed the back of his head awkwardly.
“It's true that I have seen Mr. Samuel and that I liked him. Grandpa had hoped that I would marry someone like Mr.
Samuel in the future as well. However, if I were to count the times I have seen Mr. Samuel with my hand, I would

going to force him to love me.”
Luna's body looked extremely delicate.
With her blue dress fluttering in the night breeze, she looked undeniably beautiful under the moonlight. Her simple
elegance was like a fresh breath of air.
She was not as fashionable as the women in the cities. Even so, Steven could not take his eyes off the woman with
black hair as soft as silk.
“Mr. Steven, I'm not as senseless as you think I am. I know where my boundaries are.” Taking a deep breath, Luna
cleared her mind and steadied herself. She turned to look Steven straight in the eye. “Don't worry. Once I've made
sure Mr. Samuel is fine, I will be leaving Dellmoor and back to Greenview. I won't be giving the Bowers family any
more unnecessary inconveniences.”
“I'm not kicking you out,” replied Steven, getting defensive.
“I know,” Luna responded lightly. “But once my job here is done, I'll have to go back. My home is in Greenview, not
here.”
Steven pursed his lips together and fell silent. However, for some strange reason, a sense of disappointment crept
into his heart at the thought of Luna leaving.
