Chapter 2554

“Yes,” answered Jim before Joshua could reply. He furrowed his brow and looked at Luna before
averting his gaze to look atBonnie.

“When we received your calls, Joshua had already guessed that you two were here for this matter.”

Jim shifted into a more comfortable position on the couch as he calmly glanced at Joshua.

“There is nothing to hide.Just tell them.Gwen…needs to know the truth, too.” Joshua, however, shook
his head and looked at Luna solemnly.

“It should be between you and Bonnie only.You should still hide it from Gwen.” Joshua sighed and
rubbed the middle of his eyebrows, which were throbbing.

He said, “Before Luke died, he said that we can’t let Gwen know about this, no matter what.He didn’t
want Gwen to live the rest of her life with guilt, missing him.He gave his life so that she could forget him
and live a good life, not to reminisce about him for the rest of her life.”

Then, he reached out and pulled Luna into his arms.He said in a low voice, “So, no matter what, don’t
tell Gwen.

“Luna, you and Bonnie, as Gwen’s closest friends, need to do the same thing as before, keeping this
from Gwen.Tell Gwen that Luke is a jerk and get her to leave Merchant City.”

Joshua’s tone was rather low and hoarse, something which was quite usual.

“This is Luke’s dying wish. Can you both do it?”

Luna bit her lip.



Hearing Joshua’s words, she could feel the grief coming from him.It felt like something was lodged in
her throat.

She wanted to say something but found herself unable to.She looked at Joshua in silence.She could
not tell Gwen.She could not let Gwen know of Luke’s sacrifice.She had to continue calling Luke a jerk
and persuade Gwen to not wait for him, to ask her to leave.

This was what she had been doing before finding out the truth.

At this moment, however, she found herself struggling to do the same.

Her conscience would not allow her to speak ill of Luke, a man who sacrificed his life for his loved
one.Was this why Joshua and Jim had been hiding it from her all this while?

At that thought, Luna felta pang of regret.She regretted visiting Sean with Bonnie that day.She
regretted that due to her carelessness, she tricked Sean and asked the truth.

Had she not done this, she could continue her life in the dark, not knowing what truly happened.She
could continue persuading Gwen to leave while cursing Luke’s name.

‘Try my best,” Bonnie said with a sigh, seeing how Luna could not say anything Luna and Gwenwere
the closest to each other, so Bonnie could understand Luna’s sadness.

After all, Luna and Gwen had known each other for more than 10 years.She only knew Gwen for about
a year or so.

Perhaps that was why she could be more heartless in this.

“Let me deal with this.” Bonnie looked at Luna once more.



“Don’t go looking for Gwen for the next few days, in case…you can’t control your emotions.Take it
slow.Go there once you’ve collected yourself.” Luna paused for a while.

She could only nod.

Bonnie was no doubt the person that understood her the most.

“Where is…Mr.Jones buried?”

After a long silence, Sean finally could no longer hold back He pursed his lips.
