Chapter 53
Luna did not sleep well that night.
She kept dreaming about all the things that she went through with Joshua. The flutter of her heart during her first encounter with
him, the happiness she felt when they had their wedding photos taken, the rush of their wedding...
She kept asking Joshua why in her dreams.
Why? Why should her love be completely wiped out like this?
When she woke up, her pillow was wet with tears. Turns out, the pain one suffered in love was not that easy to let go of even
after so many years.
“Mommy.“ Nellie was standing by her bed with a tissue in her hand. She carefully wiped away Luna’s tears. “Did Daddy make
you angry again?“
Luna shut her eyes and hugged Nellie in her arms. Feeling the warmth of Nellie’s body, she suddenly felt energized once again.
For the past six years, her three children were her motivation to continue living. No matter what, she would not abandon them.
“Mommy, stop crying.“
Nellie gently patted Luna on her back. She comforted gently, “No matter what, Nigel, Neil, and I will always be on your side.
Don’t be sad.“
Nellie’s comforts touched Luna. She hugged Nellie for a long time until Lucas came knocking on her door.
“What is it?“
“If you’re awake, can you make some soup for Joshua to sober up?“ Lucas stood by the door with an embarrassed expression.
“He has an important meeting later, but he drank too much last night. He is still hungover. It’s still early, the other servants are not
here yet, so I could only ask you to do it.“
Luna nodded. “Okay.“
Then, she put on a jacket and headed downstairs.
In the kitchen, she put the ingredients into the pot and boiled it. Then, she started making breakfast for Nellie.
Standing at the entrance of the kitchen, Lucas stood there. He was hesitant to say something.
