Pursuing My Ex-Wife Isn’t Easy chapter 1622
“Did you manage to find the baby? D id you do a DNA test?” Luna shook her head in despair. “We couldn’t find it…”
She continued solemnly as she headed toward the house, ” Gwen, don’t you think it’s strange that someone had stolen me and Joshua’s dead child?”
She bit her lip and tried to suppress her tears. “Why would someone want to steal a dead baby’s corpse? What use would they get out of stealing a baby that had died soon after birth?”
Luna sniffed and continued, “Could it be that whoever stole my baby hated me or Joshua so much that they couldn’t let our newborn baby rest in peace?”
Gwen held onto Luna’s trembling body and felt a twinge of pain shoot through her heart as she listened to Luna’s sorrowful, despairing voice.
She bit her lip and recalled what Vivian had said. “Luna, please don’t be so pessimistic. What if what that servant said was true? Maybe your child is still alive, and the dead one was a fake.”
Luna furrowed her brows and let out a deep sigh. “Well… since it’s a fake, why would it be stolen?”
Gwen swiveled her eyes in thought and replied, “Maybe the person who stole the child didn’t know it was a fake, or maybe the person who switched out your child with the fake one was worried that you and Joshua would suspect this in the future and dig out the corpse to do a DNA test, so they stole the body before you can do that.”
The more she said this, the more confident Gwen grew that she was right. “Yes, this must’ve been what happened, so you shouldn’t be too upset, Luna. Your child might still be alive and healthy!”
Not only did Gwen’s words fail to reassure Luna, but she grew even more anxious instead.
After returning to her room, Luna lay on her bed, staring up at the ceiling, her mind filled with confusing thoughts.
On the one hand, she had a feeling that Vivian had said all that out of desperation that she would save her…and therefore could not be trusted.
After all, people were willing to do anything to survive, not to mention Vivian, the servant who was so cruel that she would hurt Rosalyn like this after receiving so many people’s bribery.
Because of this, Vivian’s words could not be trusted at all.
On the other hand, Luna hoped that what she said was true. If her child were still alive…even if the child could not return to her side, Luna would still be happy!
Luna lay on her bed and drifted off to sleep in the midst of wondering whether Vivian had been telling the truth or not.
She dreamt that she and Joshua’s child was still alive, but the child was not someplace else, buried instead underneath the cherry blossom tree where they had buried her.
Underneath the tree, the child was screaming that Luna and Joshua had buried her alive.
The baby’s blood-curdling screams and its twisted, grotesque face, like something out of a horror film, woke Luna immediately.
Luna sat up from her bed, her entire body drenched in sweat.
She took out her phone, shaking, and dialed Joshua’s number out of instinct.
At this moment, Joshua was sitting on a sofa in the DNA Diagnostic Center.
“What’s wrong?”
Luna’s breathing was very heavy, and she said in a trembling voice, panting, “Joshua, when we buried the child
…she was indeed dead, wasn’t she? We didn’t bury her alive, right?”
“Yes,” Joshua replied in a low voice. “What’s wrong? Did you have a bad dream?”
Luna let out a sigh of relief. “Yes.”
“Don’t worry too much. As soon as I hear any news about the child, I’ll let you know immediately,” Joshua reassured Luna as his gaze landed on the report sitting on the table before him.
A row of words read, [Specimen A and Specimen B were determined not to be genetically matched.]
