Chapter 686

Upon getting Luna’s word, Nathan sighed once again before taking Celeste and left.

Once both of them entered the elevator, Anne sighed and helped Luna up, slowly taking Luna back to
her room.

“They said that they didn’t want to morally coerce you, but they still did it anyway.“

Luna pursed her lips. “It’s fine.“

Even if Nathan did not say it, she still would not forget Theo when she paid a tribute to Neil. She
would not even have a grand wedding, not when Neil’s remains still could not be found.

Their request was also what she wanted to do.

Anne pursed her lips and sent Luna back to her room. She wanted to say something, but she noticed
Joshua standing by the entrance when she looked back.

Anne paused for a while. In the end, she still got up, cautiously left, and shut the door behind her.

The atmosphere in the room was so quiet that it was suffocating.

After a long while, Joshua smiled bitterly. He walked over to Luna’s bed and sat down by the side.

“You really agreed to Malcolm’s proposal?“

Luna did not look at Joshua, opting instead to look up ahead. “Yes.“

Joshua lowered his head and asked with a low and hoarse voice, “Why?“

“What do you think?“



Luna turned her head and looked at Joshua coldly. Since Joshua already knew who she was, there
was no need for her to hide anymore.

“Luna.“ Joshua looked at her, his gaze filled with deep pain.

“I don’t know what misunderstanding happened between us, but I just want to tell you that I — “

“Misunderstanding?“ Luna laughed out loud. “Since when have I misunderstood you?

“No, you’re right. I have misunderstood you. I once thought that you were a responsible and committed
man, that you were someone who’d take responsibility for his marriage and relationships, but what
happened in the end?“

Luna glared at Joshua coldly. “While you and I were married, you got together with my sister. You were
even willing to hire Jason to kill me because of her! You asked me why I agree to Malcolm’s marriage
proposal. What do you think?“

Luna glared at Joshua angrily. The rage that she had suppressed for six years finally showed itself.

“I was pregnant with triplets. Jason crashed into me and, seeing how I was still alive, even called you.

What happened next? In the call, you told him to kill me. I was knocked off of Bay Bridge by him. If it
weren’t for Malcolm’s yacht at sea at that time and him rescuing me from drowning, would I still be here
now?

”My entire face was ruined because of that hit -and- run, but for the three strong lives in my womb, I
endured the pain of disfigurement for seven full months ! It was only when the children were born did
Malcolm help me undergo cosmetic surgery ! ”

Luna clutched her face and sneered. ”Do you know, because of this face, how much I’ve suffered to
just be able to live like a normal person? When I was bringing my children up in suffering, what were



you doing? You were with Aura. You announced that Aura was your fiancée. You both said that I had
an affair, that I left a note and eloped. You said I had an accident.

”You even produced a will and said that before I left, I asked you to take care of Aura, that I asked you
to be with Aura! “

Luna glared at Joshua fiercely. ”Now, you have the cheek to ask me why I agreed to marry Malcolm? If
it weren’t for Malcolm, my children and I would’ve been long dead! ”

”So… ” Joshua closed his eyes. ”Just because he rescued you and your children, you agreed to marry
him?”

”What else, then?” Luna smiled mockingly and looked at Joshua. Her gaze was so cold, there was not
an ounce of warmth in it.

”If I don’t marry Malcolm, who rescued me from the brink of death and treated my children like his own,
should I marry you instead, the person who harmed me and my children back then and even killed a
child of mine now?!

”Joshua, I was indeed blind to have fallen for you back then, but what makes you think that I’ll be willing
to look at you right now?”

Joshua, sitting in front of her, furrowed his brows hard.

”Whether it was six years ago, or now. I’ve never hurt you once.”

Luna sneered.

”So, what’s with Jason?”
