Except…
The only thing Luna seemed to have done for him was giving birth to a daughter whom she had lost
just mere minutes after her birth and could not track down, even until at present time.
As soon as she thought of this, Luna clutched the jade ring inside her coat pocket tightly.
This was the ring she had gotten from Jim.
As soon as she returned to Joshua’s house after picking up Bonnie, she would be able to help Joshua
uncover the truth of his Aunt Lucy’s death.
Just as Luna was immersed in her thoughts, the car had already arrived at the clinic near the factory
Sean Wheeler worked at.
He had not been lying when he told her how rundown the clinic was.
Joshua parked the car, and as soon as the car screeched to a halt, Luna flung the door open and

“I’m here.”
The clinic was astonishingly small, with only a chair, a small bed, and a tiny table for the doctor to do
his work inside it.
At this moment, Bonnie was lying on the bed, her face pale, as she chatted with the man sitting next to
her.
The man looked like he was in his early twenties, and even though his face and body were covered in
dirt and smudges, he was still a handsome young man.
When he saw Luna and Joshua, who were both dressed in clean, expensive clothing and emanated
auras of grace and power, the man quickly stood up and stared at Luna eamestly, “Are you Luna? I’m
Sean Wheeler, the man who called you.”
Luna nodded and extended her hand to him. “Pleasure to meet you. Thank you for saving my friend.”
The man froze for a moment and immediately reached his hand out to shake Luna’s.
However, as soon as he did so, he caught sight of how dirty his hand was, and he quickly drew it back,
laughing awkwardly. “I’d better not shake your hand; mine is filthy.”
With that, he pointed at the bed behind him and said, “Your friend is right there.
“The doctor said that she had fainted due to low blood sugar, and she’s fine now after the doctor gave
her some glucose in an IV drip.
As soon as she heard this, Luna took out a stack of bills from her pocket and handed it to Sean. Then,
she thanked him once more and quickly walked away to find Bonnie.
The man counted the number of bills, took one out, and handed the rest to Joshua. “I don’t need this
much.”
With that, he scampered away to find the doctor, clutching the single hundred-dollar bill in his hand. “I’ll
go pay the doctor right now.”
Joshua furrowed his brows as he watched the man leave. “You…”
The man paused for a moment, then turned to smile at Joshua. “Is there anything I can help with, Sir?”
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmJoshua furrowed his brows but shook his head.
Seeing this, the man quickly strode away.
Meanwhile, Luna was trying to help Bonnie up from the bed after asking her if she was fine.
However, Bonnie was so weak that she could not stand up on her own, and Luna alone could not bring
her to the car.
Therefore, she wanted to ask Joshua for help.
After gently placing Bonnie back on the bed, Luna came out of the room and patted Joshua’s shoulder.
“Come help me bring Bonnie to the car. What are you looking at, anyway?”
“Nothing.” Joshua furrowed his brows as he stared at the man’s retreating figure. “Even though he’s
covered entirely in dirt and dust, I still can’t help feeling that…he looks a lot like someone I met when I
was a child.”
With that, he shook his head and added, “Nevermind. I must be mistaken.”
He turned and followed Luna into the small room.
Bonnie looked even paler and frailer than he had thought. Joshua frowned at this sight and asked,
“What happened to you?”
