Chapter 1047

Even though Mr. Chase from the asylum promised Joshua that he would arrange for nurses to supervise
Luna to prevent her from ‘harming herself’. But he knew better than anyone that Luna’s finger was not
the product of her self-harm.

But even so, pretenses had to be upheld, he might not be able to handle it if Joshua decided to take
action against them.

So, he recruited a few temporary workers from a recruitment agency in the city center and interviewed
them briefly. He did not even bother reading their resumes and immediately ordered them to supervise
Luna. After all, Luna had been injected with the medication that they prepared, she

would be exhausted. Even getting out of bed would be a struggle, it was impossible for her to escape,
what more hurt herself. Hiring these extra workers

was just a show to placate Joshua. In the evening.

Luna lay on the bed, watching as the nurse arranged for a few dark-skinned men to guard her door, and
a cold sneer appeared on her lips.

What sort of misunderstanding was there between Joshua and herself? Even if she was a monster with
three heads and six arms, she would not be able to escape from this place. Did he have to station so
many people outside her door? As if she was some sort of monster that had to be guarded tightly even in
her sleep.

She closed her eyes, sighed deeply, and lay on the bed to get some rest. Even though one of her fingers
had been snapped in half today, but luckily, in the evening a nurse gave her another shot of pain killers.
She would be able to sleep through the night. She would worry about tomorrow when the time came.

Sometime later, she heard the rustling sound of the door opening. She opened her eyes in confusion and
instead, saw a pair of clear, bright eyes. The intruder was wearing a mask, so Luna did not recognize



him for a second.

Seeing that she was awake, he pulled his mask down, exposing his cold, handsome face.

Luna was so shocked that she was rendered speechless for a long while. This face belonged to…

“Luke Jones?! “

“Hush.“ Luke looked at her calmly. “What happened?“

Luna bit her lip and lowered her voice. “That’s a long story.“

“Well, tell me when you’re out of here then.“ Luke sighed, “Gwen heard from Anne that you’re in trouble
and kept pestering me at home. I had no choice but to rush here immediately. But I have no influence in
this area, I can’t do much, so I could only smuggle myself in here disguised as a nurse.“

Then, he gestured to the woman standing behind him, also dressed from head to toe in a nurse’s outfit.
“Come on.“

The woman removed her mask, it was Gwen. After being apart for a long time, and the next time she
saw her, Luna was in this sad condition. Gwen could not hold back her tears any further. She helped
Luna change into a nurse’s gown and wiped at her tears. “ The last time we talked, you said both Nellie
and Nigel have recovered and that you would be leaving the country soon? How…how could this happen
within two short weeks?“

Luna laughed bitterly, “This is all thanks to Joshua.“

Very soon, Luna was dressed in the nurse’s gown. Luke ordered one of his men to carry Luna on his
back. The moment they left the hospital ward, Luna raised a question. “It won’t be long before they
realize I’ve escaped.“



Luke raised his lips and barked out an evil laugh, “ Don’t worry, I’ve arranged for someone to take your
place. At least before tomorrow, they won’t realize you’re gone.“

Luna bit her lip. “But. “

It was a small matter if Joshua realized she had escaped, but if the person who took her place was
discovered, would he…

“She’s someone special. They won’t hurt her. Besides “ Luke sighed, “she owes it to you.“

Luna paused. Before she could read the hidden message in his words, the man carrying her on his back
strode away quickly.

At the door, the group gave an excuse that one of the nurses had suffered heat stroke and had to leave.
