Chapter 1082

With that, he turned and left.

Joshua glanced at Luna, who tried desperately to hold back her tears, and strode over to her side,
wrapping an arm around her shoulder. “Don’t worry. Even if we die, we’d be dying on our way to save
Nigel and Nellie.“

If it were not for them, Nigel and Nellie would not even be in this situation in the first place. As parents,
even if there was not much they could do for the children, they still had to try their best.

Lucas soon got the cars ready. He had prepared a few high-spec SUVs for the journey in case they got
into trouble while traveling during the storm. In

addition, the SUVs were equipped with necessary supplies and tools in case of any emergencies.

Joshua immediately dragged Luna onto the car, even though he was still wearing the bloodstained
clothes from Dr. Robert’s accident.

He used to be someone who could not tolerate dirt and messes like this, but at that moment, the thought
of changing his clothes did not even cross his mind. He was too occupied with chasing after Fiona and
finding the children.

Lucas started the car.

The SUVs zipped through the city roads through the heavy downpour.

Inside the car, Joshua gripped Luna’s uninjured hand tightly and said, “Don’t worry. Since we’re caught in
this bad weather, I’m sure Fiona is, too. It takes four to five hours from Banyan City to the countryside, so
Fiona must still be on her way. We can catch up to her in time.“



Luna nodded, then removed her hand from Joshua’s grasp. “Thank you for your comforting words, Mr.
Lynch.“

Joshua’s hand remained in its original spot somewhat awkwardly, his fingers still curled in the position
before Luna removed her hand.

His expression darkened upon seeing this, and he lifted his head to stare at Luna’s face. “I wasn’t trying
to comfort you; I was comforting myself.“

Luna closed her eyes and let out a bitter smile. “Are you worried about my children too, Mr. Lynch?“

‘My children, ‘ she said. Not theirs.

Joshua’s chest tightened upon hearing this. He gazed at her with a complicated expression and said,
“Well, of course. They’re my children, too.“

“But you’ve never cared about them, Mr. Lynch.“ He never paid for their medical bills.

Even after Nigel came out of surgery, Joshua had always remained by Fiona’s side.

For two months after Nigel’s surgery, he never even paid him a visit at Blue Bay Villa.

This time was no different. Even though he did not lie about sending the children to the youth education
center, he confiscated the children’s devices and let

Granny Lynch take them back to the countryside, where there was barely any phone signal.

Luna had been trying to call Granny Lynch’s phone ever since she got into the car, but she could not
reach her number at all.

She could not get in touch with Nigel and Nellie, and they could not locate Fiona either.



The anxiety and worry in Luna’s heart prevented her from staying calm, and she could not help feeling
reproachful of Joshua.

Joshua’s heart sank upon hearing Luna’s words. After a moment, he turned his head away to gaze at the
window. “It’s not that I never cared about them. Whether it’s Nigel, Nellie, or Neil, I’ve never—“

“Is that so?“ Luna curled her lips into a sneer. “Then why don’t you explain everything to me, Mr. Lynch?
Why did you find a new girlfriend so soon after Neil’s accident and even live with her? Can you explain
why you were with Fiona all throughout Nigel’s surgery, even though it was the most crucial surgery in
his life?“
