NovelEnglishChapter 1886
Inside Theo’s painting, a graceful and scholarly-looking woman stood amid a field of yellow flowers.
Both Theo and Bonnie lifted their heads as soon as Luna walked in.
“You’re back.”
“Yes, I am.” Luna sat on the edge of the bed and glanced at Theo’s drawing. “This woman looks a little
familiar.”
Theo let out a somewhat weak chuckle. “Roanne got in touch with me this morning, and she wanted
met o paint a picture of her and gift it to her the next time we meet.”
As he said this, he pointed at the painting and asked, “She was dressed in white when we saw her
yesterday, so I drew her in the same clothes. Does this painting look like her?”
Luna glanced at the painting, frowning, then shook her head. “No, it doesn’t, it looks more like…”

Of course, Luna did not say this aloud.
“Is that so?” Theo stood up and quickly tidied up his things. “Well, if that’s the case, I’ll go ask Joshua if
he has any photos or further information about Roanne so that I can get inspired.
“Please excuse me.”
With that, he turned and left the room.
The door closed behind him.
Bonnie glanced at the unfinished IV drip hanging next to the bed and sighed. “Joshua told me that he
has arranged the servants to get a room upstairs ready for me and that as soon as my IV drip runs out,
I’ll be able to go upstairs.”
With that, she turned and glanced solemnly at Luna. “How’s Gwen?”
Staring at Bonnie’s pale face, Luna grabbed hold of her uninjured hand and replied, “She didn’t
manage to escape and was captured by Luke.”
She let out a sigh and fixated her gaze on Bonnie’s face. “Does it…still hurt?”
As soon as she heard this, Bonnie lowered her head and could not stop the tears from falling anymore.
She glanced at her tightly-wrapped finger and said in a choked, nasally voice, “Actually, it doesn’t hurt
that much anymore.
“This is nothing compared to the emotional pain I’m going through.”
Bonnie lifted her head and fixed her tear-rimmed eyes on Luna’s face. “When Christopher brought me
to the hospital this morning…we ran into Jim.”
She sniffed as tears soundlessly slid down her cheek. “His arm was around Charlotte, and he didn’t
even give me a second glance.
“After that, Christopher went to the pharmacy to retrieve my medications and let me wait in the garden.
A creep snuck up on me and tried to take advantage of me, so I chased him away by telling him I was

“Do you know what Jim said to me as soon as that creep ran off?”
Bonnie wiped the tears from her face and said in a choked voice, “He called me a slut for sleeping
around
with other men even while pregnant.”
She lifted her head to stare at Luna. “Do you think that I’m the person that matters the least in this
world t
Jim?
“How could he still remember many other things after losing his memory but can’t recall even a single
detail about me?
“If I matter so little to him…I think there’s no reason for me to continue staying in Merchant City
anymore. Since he likes Charlotte so much, I should grant them a lifetime of happiness together.
“…I have no right to compete with her for Jim.”
Luna bit her lip and gripped Bonnie’s wrist tightly when she saw the despair in her eyes. “If you have no
right to compete with her, no one else has.” She handed Bonnie the medical report. “You’re pregnant.”
