Chapter 2342 Malcolm’s expression darkened upon hearing this. He furrowed his brows and replied rather feebly,
“I….I had no choice!”
All of a sudden, he lifted his head to stare at Luna as though he had suddenly recalled something. “Lulu, you know
me better than anyone. I can be quite cowardly in times of need, but…I truly love and care for Riley, just like how I
loved Nigel, Neil, and Nellie.
“You remember just how kind I was to you and the children, don’t you? Even though I had made some mistakes in
the past, you can’t deny that I had been kind to you and the three children, can you?”
Luna narrowed her eyes upon hearing this.
If this had happened in the past, she would have stood on Malcolm’s side and helped him, but at this moment…
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtShe curled her lips into a smirk, fixed her crystal clear eyes on Malcolm’s face, and coldly retorted, “Is that so?
Malcolm, you’re saying that because you were always kind to me and my children, you want me to help you explain
to Joshua that you had treated Riley the same and that you were just forced to give her up to Quentin out of
desperation?”
Malcolm’s entire face lit up. “That’s right. Lulu, I can’t
believe that after so long, you’re still the only one who understands me the best.”
A wave of nausea rolled through Luna’s entire body.
He was right. When he first rescued her, she had indeed gotten to know him so well that she could understand his
thoughts almost immediately. However, at that time, it was because Malcolm had wanted her to help design some
jewelry customized for Quinn Group.
When she accurately guessed his exact thoughts, he put his arm around her shoulder in delight and exclaimed,”
There’s no one else who can understand me the way you do, my dear Lulu. We’re perfect for each other!”
At that time, Luna’s heart was filled with hatred toward Joshua and gratitude towards Malcolm for saving her life.
When she first heard him saying this, her entire face had blushed scarlet.
She thought she would be happy spending the rest of her life with Malcolm . Even though she had never fallen for
him, she had been determined to marry him. After Joshua’s ‘betrayal’, Luna had lost all hope in true love, and since
she could not bring herself to fall in love with another man, being with Malcolm was the best choice she had.
For one, she would be able to repay his deed of saving her
and the children’s lives, and she could also let her children grow up with a kind, loving father. Because of this, Luna
always thought she was obliged to be with Malcolm, and even after reconciling with Joshua, she had, at one point,
felt guilty about betraying Malcolm, until –
Until one day, when Malcolm and Heather’s evil plan was exposed, Luna could finally see Malcolm’s true colors.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmHe had deliberately cut her face with a knife so that she had no choice but to undergo plastic surgery. Why had he
done this? Before her plastic surgery, Luna’s face was almost identical to Rosalyn’s, and there was no way he would
be able to keep her by his side without anyone noticing her connection to the Landry family.
On the other hand, he treated the three children as though they were his own simply because he had known they
were Joshua’s children and would come in handy in the future when he needed to threaten Joshua.
This had happened so long ago that it slipped Luna and Joshua’s minds. On top of that, Heather’s death, as well as
their preoccupation with other priorities, had caused them to forget about Malcolm’s involvement in this devious
scheme and their revenge. However, Malcolm had appeared just when they least expected it, claiming that he
cared about Riley just as much as he had cared about Nigel, Neil, and Nellie.
Luna could not help finding this amusing. “You say you truly care about Nigel, Neil, and Nellie, don’t you, Malcolm?
Can you tell me where they are currently and what they’re up to, then?”
Malcolm’s entire body stiffened upon hearing this. A split second later, he broke out into a smile.
