Chapter 1817
Luna developed a high fever after Joshua took her home. He had changed a few family doctors, but the effect was minimal.
Luna had a high fever for two days. Joshua remained by her side in her room through it all.
Finally, in the afternoon of the second day, Luna’s eyes slowly opened with her brows knitted together.
Her vision became clear.
She rubbed her aching head while sizing up her surroundings and getting up from the bed.
When she saw the black-and-white decor of the room and Joshua, who was next to her leaning on a chair asleep, Luna finally realized that she should have been brought to Joshua’s mansion in Merchant City.
Feeling her movements, Joshua, who was leaning back on the chair resting, slowly opened his eyes.
“You’re up.”
Looking at Luna’s haggardly pale face, Joshua furrowed his brows and said with a hoarse voice, “Are you thirsty? I’ll go get you a cup of water.”
Luna responded in a hoarse voice, “I’m thirsty.”
Joshua immediately got up and headed downstairs. In less than a minute, Joshua brought a cup of warm water in.
“I added some salt into the water. The doctor advised me to give you some salted water when you come around…”
Looking at how worried Joshua looked, Luna was touched.
She bit her lip and accepted the cup of water.
“Thank you.”
Joshua sighed and sat next to her. “You don’t have to thank me.”
He should be the one that should thank her.
A few days ago when they were in Banyan City, he was angry because Celia said that Luna was more important to him than revenge.
For the past few days, while Luna was out cold, he finally understood his feelings. In his heart, Luna was indeed much more important than any revenge or feud.
Luna was sipping on the salted water while looking at Joshua with the corner of her eye, all the while not knowing what to say.
The two of them were silent as usual. It was a suffocating silence.
After a while, Luna spotted the calendar behind Joshua, and her eyes abruptly widened at the sight.
“I’ve been asleep for two days?!”
Joshua nodded and accepted the empty cup from Luna.
“You came around quite quickly already. According to the doctor’s safe estimate, you might be out cold for a week.”
“Damnit!” mit
Luna smacked her head and immediately picked up her phone.
If she remembered correctly, two days before when she left Banyan City, Nigel had told her that Bonnie was going to secretly come to Merchant City two days later to give Jim a surprise.
This day was the day that Bonnie was coming to Merchant City!
With Jim’s current situation, if Bonnie suddenly appeared..
The consequences would be terrible!
At that thought, Luna immediately dialed for Bonnie, only to realize that Bonnie’s phone was shut off.
How was her phone shut off?!
Luna, overridden with anxiety, immediately dialed Nigel. Upon hearing the connecting tone, Luna started t o pray in her heart.
Bonnie must not come to Merchant City. She must not!
However, after the call connected, what Nigel said completely stunned Luna.
“Aunt Bonnie has taken Shelly along with her in her private plane this morning. I can’t contact her either, but before she left, she said she wanted to give you and Uncle Jim a huge surprise, so she turned off her phone. When she finds you, you’ll naturally know where she is.”
After hanging up on Nigel’s call, Luna bit her lips harshly.
What should she do? Where would Bonnie look for Jim? Landry Mansion? Landry Group?
