With that, he turned and left.
Joshua glanced at Luna, who tried desperately to hold back her tears, and strode over to her side, wrapping an arm
around her shoulder. “Don’t worry. Even if we die, we’d be dying on our way to save Nigel and Nellie.“
If it were not for them, Nigel and Nellie would not even be in this situation in the first place. As parents, even if
there was not much they could do for the children, they still had to try their best.
Lucas soon got the cars ready. He had prepared a few high-spec SUVs for the journey in case they got into trouble
while traveling during the storm. In
Joshua immediately dragged Luna onto the car, even though he was still wearing the bloodstained clothes from Dr.
Robert’s accident.

changing his clothes did not even cross his mind. He was too occupied with chasing after Fiona and finding the
children.
Lucas started the car.
The SUVs zipped through the city roads through the heavy downpour.
Inside the car, Joshua gripped Luna’s uninjured hand tightly and said, “Don’t worry. Since we’re caught in this bad
weather, I’m sure Fiona is, too. It takes four to five hours from Banyan City to the countryside, so Fiona must still be
on her way. We can catch up to her in time.“
Luna nodded, then removed her hand from Joshua’s grasp. “Thank you for your comforting words, Mr. Lynch.“
Joshua’s hand remained in its original spot somewhat awkwardly, his fingers still curled in the position before Luna
removed her hand.
His expression darkened upon seeing this, and he lifted his head to stare at Luna’s face. “I wasn’t trying to comfort
you; I was comforting myself.“
Luna closed her eyes and let out a bitter smile. “Are you worried about my children too, Mr. Lynch?“
‘My children, ‘ she said. Not theirs.
Joshua’s chest tightened upon hearing this. He gazed at her with a complicated expression and said, “Well, of
course. They’re my children, too.“
“But you’ve never cared about them, Mr. Lynch.“ He never paid for their medical bills.
Even after Nigel came out of surgery, Joshua had always remained by Fiona’s side.
For two months after Nigel’s surgery, he never even paid him a visit at Blue Bay Villa.

This time was no different. Even though he did not lie about sending the children to the youth education center, he
confiscated the children’s devices and let
Granny Lynch take them back to the countryside, where there was barely any phone signal.
Luna had been trying to call Granny Lynch’s phone ever since she got into the car, but she could not reach her
number at all.
She could not get in touch with Nigel and Nellie, and they could not locate Fiona either.
The anxiety and worry in Luna’s heart prevented her from staying calm, and she could not help feeling reproachful
of Joshua.
Joshua’s heart sank upon hearing Luna’s words. After a moment, he turned his head away to gaze at the window.
“It’s not that I never cared about them. Whether it’s Nigel, Nellie, or Neil, I’ve never—“
“Is that so?“ Luna curled her lips into a sneer. “Then why don’t you explain everything to me, Mr. Lynch? Why did
you find a new girlfriend so soon after Neil’s accident and even live with her? Can you explain why you were with
Fiona all throughout Nigel’s surgery, even though it was the most crucial surgery in his life?“
