Chapter 672

Luna was starting to feel anxious.

She exhaled and tried to dial both Theo and Nigel again, but none of them picked up their phones.

Finally, Luna had no choice but to call Malcolm instead.

“Hello?“ Malcolm’s voice rang out through the phone, sounding a little weary.

Luna frowned. “Malcolm, Nigel…“

“Nigel’s getting emergency surgery, “ Malcolm’s voice sounded exhausted. “Luna, I can’t do this
anymore. Nigel…can’t do this anymore.“

Luna’s eyes widened when she heard this. “What… What do you mean?“

Malcolm let out a sigh. Every syllable he uttered after that felt like they were pounding against Luna’s
chest, “Nigel’s condition has been worsening for the past two months. He told me not to let you know,
and he also ordered the doctor to lie to you, saying he was getting better… Didn’t you notice he was
contacting you less and less now?“

Luna almost dropped her phone.

Malcolm was right. Nigel did contact her less frequently than before, but he told her that he had learned a
new type of hacking technology and was spending a lot of time trying to perfect it.

Besides, Nigel had always been a quiet child, so naturally, Luna did not overthink his progressive lack of
communication, but…

“He wasn’t learning some new hacking technology. He didn’t contact you as often because he’s so sick
that he can’t even talk normally anymore. This morning, he even vomited blood, and the doctors sent him
into the operating theater immediately. It’s been almost eight hours now…



“The doctor said if he doesn’t undergo bone marrow transplant soon… He won’t even have a year to
live.“ Malcolm closed his eyes and continued, “Nigel made me promise not to tell you any of this, but I
don’t think I can do that anymore. Luna… Why don’t you give up on your plan and come back instead, to
be by Nigel’s side? It’s been almost six months since you left, and if you haven’t gotten pregnant by
now… “

“I have.“ Luna clenched her teeth and said in a choked voice, “Malcolm, I’m at the airport right now. I’ll be
back very soon. Take good care of Nigel for me—I’ll be home soon. Neil and Nellie are on their way, too.
We’ll be fine…“

She clutched her phone tightly and could no longer keep her tears at bay. “Malcolm, I’m pregnant. Nigel
can be saved…“

Malcolm remained silent. Finally, after a pause, he, too, said in a choked voice, “That’s great. When Nigel
comes out of surgery later, I’ll tell him the good news.“

Luna bit down on her lip and nodded. “Alright. We’ll be fine. Please don’t give up just yet, and please tell
Nigel not to give up either. I…“

However, before she could finish her sentence, Luna felt a twinge of pain shoot up from her stomach.
The pain was so excruciating that she could not help bending over in agony.

Luna gripped her phone tightly but could not say a single word.

Malcolm seemed to sense that something was wrong. “Luna…? Luna?“

Luna bit down on her lip and opened her mouth to say something, but nothing came out. She was in so
much pain that tears brimmed in her eyes.

Suddenly, she felt something warm trickle out from beneath her.



She knew what that was.

Despair and hopelessness engulfed Luna’s entire being, and she could not even hold onto her phone
anymore. Her phone fell onto the ground with a thud.

Luna saw a man make his way over to her, then bend down to pick up her phone.

The man ignored Malcolm’s worried cries coming from the other end of the line and hung up the call.
Then, he reached out his hand toward her. “Ms.

Luna.“

Luna looked up and, despite having tears in her eyes, made out the man’s face.

Jason gave her a sinister smile and said, “Mr. Lynch asked me to check on you and see if the
miscarriage was successful. From the looks of things, it was.“
