Chapter 2423
Luna thus sighed, squeezed Joshua's hand, and said gently, "We've already wasted plenty of
precious time, and I'm worried that Sean and Jim might be angry at US for this."
An hour ago, they had been notified of the news that Sean was found, and even then, they had
promised to rush to the hospital as soon as possible.
More than an hour had passed since this happened, yet they had not shown up at Sean's
hospital room. Even if Sean was courteous enough not to mention it, Luna was sure he would be
displeased about this delay.
This was why she had been so impatient to get out of the car.
"They won't be." Joshua chuckled and walked into the hospital hand-in-hand with Luna.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtInside the room, Sean was still describing to Jim—in animosity and great detail—how he had
been kidnapped.
"Kate told me she was tired and needed a nap, so I agreed to let her sleep. After all, I had only gotten my hands
injured, whereas the rest of my body was fine, so I didn't need someone to keep an eye on me 24/7.
"Therefore, after Kate fell asleep, I placed a jacket on top of her and went to sleep myself.
"While I was asleep, I dreamt that a few men had broken into the house and were taking Kate and me away. I tried
to open my eyes because, for some reason, this dream felt strangely real, but no matter how hard I tried, I couldn't
pry my eyelids open. It was as though they had been filled with lead...
"After God knows how long, I finally managed to open my eyes and realized that it hadn't been a dream after all."
He sighed and glanced down at his hands, which were still wrapped in thick layers of bandage. "When I woke up, I
found that Kate and I had been trapped in a dark, moldy dungeon. I was tied onto a chair, whereas Kate was tied
onto a pillar. There was only one light source in the room, and after observing the surroundings, I discovered we
were kept in a dungeon.
"I woke Kate up, then told her we had been kidnapped. Initially, she hadn't believed me and instead thought that
Luke's men, who were also her friends, were playing a prank on her.
"However, after some time, she finally believed that we had been kidnapped. Because of this, she kept cursing
D=\wJ7VS scolding them, hoping we'd irritate whoever was keeping watch on US.
"If they got mad and snapped back at US, we'd perhaps be able to get some valuable information about who they
were, but to our surprise..."
Sean sighed before continuing, "The people who had captured and were keeping guard of US didn't seem to hear
US, nor did they care what we had to say at all. Not one person came to check on US—much less talk to us—from
the start till end."

"That's where you're wrong," Joshua's calm voice rang out as soon as he finished his sentence.
Joshua strode into the room, still holding Luna's hand, and explained, "The men who had
captured you were elite soldiers trained to do this, so it's understandable why you and Kate
could not seem to anger them at all." 1
Thomas was a celebrity and thus needed to keep his background clean.
Therefore, he could not possibly let his men do such dirty work and instead had to hire outsiders
to do it for him.
"I guess you found out who kidnapped them, huh?" Luke curled his lips into a smirk. 1
He shifted into a comfortable position, placed his long, slender legs on the seat in front of him,
and said, "Come on, tell US.
"I'm curious to know who could've possibly snatched these two away from right under my nose."
