Chapter 2760
On the balcony.
Luna let out an exhale and regained her composure before finally dialing Yannie’s number.
Denise wanted to know what was going on with Thomas, and in Luna’s opinion, no one would know
this better than Yannie.
Yannie picked up the phone almost immediately. “Hello, Luna.”
Luna pursed her lips. “Yannie, how…how are things on your end?”
Yannie paused for a moment, then turned to glance at the Thomas room. With the help of the doctors
and nurses, was slowly putting his clothes back on. “I…can’t say.”
For some reason, Thomas had suffered amnesia regarding the events that had transpired. He could
not remember anything that happened at Howard Mansion, or, to be precise, he could not seem to
recall anything that happened after Senior Howard got shot.
His memory seemed to have stopped there.
However, he could vaguely recall that someone had spiked his food, and he had some recollection of
sleeping with a woman, but he did not know the identity of said woman.
Therefore, at Rachel’s suggestion, Yannie decided to admit that she was the one whom he had slept
with to stabilize his emotions.
This seemed to be the answer Thomas wanted to hear. It seemed to also significantly reduce the guilt
of realizing he had harmed his own father.
Therefore, with the doctors‘ and nurses‘ help, Thomas was getting ready to go visit his father.
Yannie sighed, and as she glanced at Thomas out of the corner of her eye, she could not help feeling
even more defeated.
Every time she thought of what happened between Thomas and Denise, she could not help feeling as
though something was crushing her. Just to keep Thomas‘ emotions in check, she had no choice but to
pretend that she was the one he had slept with.
However, no one seemed to be concerned about her feelings throughout all this. It was as though her
thoughts and feelings did not matter in the face of such events.
What mattered was Thomas and everyone else except her.
Yannie suddenly had the urge to cry at the thought of this.
“Yannie.” Luna paused for a moment when she sensed Yannie’s devastation. “As long as you and
Thomas are
fine, that’s all that
that happened…I promise we’ll get to the bottom of this after everything blows over.”
Yannie finally could not hold her tears back anymore.
It turned out that there was still someone who cared
about her.
It turned out that someone knew she was upset.
Yet, the person who could sense her emotions was now telling her to pull herself together and wait until
everything blows over.‘
Yannie closed her eyes and stepped out of the room before finally replying in a murmur, “Luna, if you
and Mr. Lynch were in the same situation as Thomas and I, would you still choose to turn a blind eye?
“If you…found out that Mr. Lynch had slept with another woman just a few steps away from you, would
you still continue treating him as though nothing happened?
“What if he wanted you to admit that you were the one he slept with, despite knowing the opposite?
Would you still do it?”
Luna fell silent upon hearing this.
She closed her eyes and suddenly remembered how she
after had returned to Blue Bay Villa seven years ago finding out she was pregnant.
She, too, had overheard Joshua and Aura…
Luna curled her lips into a bitter smile. “Yannie, I’ve been through something similar in the past, but
unlike you, I didn’t even have the courage to question anything. Instead, I chose to run away.
“Yannie, I promise you that as soon as everything is taken care of, we will respect your decisions and…
try our best to make it up to you.”
Yannie let out a bitter chuckle. “Respect my decisions…
“None of you respected me when I needed it, and to choose to do so after it’s no longer needed… Are
you truly doing it out of honor, or is it because whatever I choose no longer matters?”
Luna was speechless to hear this. She furrowed her brow and was about to say something when
Thomas‘ cold voice rang out from the other end of the line, “Who
disrespected you?”
