CHAPTER 1852

For some reason, Luna thought that Joshua was unusually excited this particular night.

They were up until 4 a.m., until finally, she was utterly worn out.

“Joshua…” She bit her lip as she held onto his shoulders. “Why are you…so excited all of a sudden?”

Why was he so passionate that night?

Joshua curled his lips into a smirk, gently bit on her earlobe, and said in a low, sensuous voice,

“Because this is what you owe me.”

Luna closed her eyes in exhaustion, so tired that she could not even say another word.

However, a second before she passed out from exhaustion, she stared at the man who was still kissing

her and felt her heart turn cold.

Joshua just said that she owed her this.

Was he talking about that time when she had promised to sleep with him in exchange for his help?

She had thought he was just joking, but it turned out he had taken it seriously and wanted her to return

the favor in bed…

As soon as she thought of this, Luna could not help recalling how rough Joshua had been that night.

Maybe in his eyes, she was nothing more than an object…

Luna let out a bitter chuckle.

She should not have expected anything more from him at all.

Just that night, Luna had told him that as long as he was by her side, she would not be afraid of

anything a tall.

Alas, soon after that, Joshua had shown her his true colors.

Joshua curled his lips into a smile as he watched Luna close her eyes, then gently pressed a small kiss

onto her face.

Finally, he carried her into the bathroom and bathed her gently.

There were hickeys all over her body, all of them from him.

As he cleansed Luna’s body, Joshua suddenly felt that he had acted too aggressively, but at the same

time..

He had been suppressing his desires for too long, not just physically but emotionally as well.

No one could understand the amount of emotional torment he had gone through in the past year after

finding out that he and Luna were mortal enemies.

It had all worked out in the end.

After bathing Luna, Joshua gently placed her back onto the bed and tucked the sheets around her.

Then, he leaned against her and, like a greedy predator, watched her sleep for a long time.

In the end, the only thing that made him emerge from his daze was the sound of his phone.

It was Lucas, who had arrived to drive him to work.

Joshua finally let out an exhale before getting up and changing into a fresh set of clothes.

However, before heading out the door, he picked up Luna’s phone, intending to leave a note in her

phone t o explain why he had been so excited that night.

After all, Luna would probably be delighted to find out that the Landry and Lynch families were not, in

fact mortal enemies at all and that this had all been the work of someone else’s sabotage.

Luna’s phone was encrypted with a password, but it was an easy one to guess; it was the birth dates of

Nigel, Neil, and Nellie.

After unlocking Luna’s phone, Joshua was about to leave a note explaining his behavior when out

popped the last application Luna had used before turning her phone off.

It was a chat conversation with Bonnie. content rights.

The two of them had been talking about Jim.

Luna kept encouraging Bonnie to put her confidence in both Jim and their relationship. She had even

said that even if Jim had lost his memories, as long as he treasured their relationship, he would

eventually remember her.

Finally, Bonnie asked Luna a question.

[If the vengeance between the Landry and Lynch families no longer existed, will you choose to get back

together with Joshua?]

After receiving this question, Luna did not reply for about ten minutes.

Finally, she had sent her two words in response.

[I won’t.)

The conversation ended here.

Joshua’s expression darkened as he stared at these words, gripping Luna’s phone tightly in his hands.

‘I won’t.’

These two words were like a bucket of ice-cold water poured over Joshua’s head, extinguishing the

fiery passion and excitement in his heart.
