Even though Mr. Chase from the asylum promised Joshua that he would arrange for nurses to supervise Luna to prevent her from 'harming herself'. But he knew better than anyone that Luna's finger was not the product of her self-harm.
But even so, pretenses had to be upheld, he might not b e able to handle it if Joshua decided to take action against them.
So, he recruited a few temporary workers from a recruitment agency in the city center and interviewed them briefly. He did not even bother reading their resumes and immediately ordered them to supervise Luna. After all, Luna had been injected with the medication that they prepared, she would be exhausted. Even getting out of bed would be a struggle, it was impossible for her to escape, what more hurt herself. Hiring these extra workers was just a show to placate Joshua.
In the evening.
Luna lay on the bed, watching as the nurse arranged for a few dark-skinned men to guard her door, and a cold sneer appeared on her lips.
What sort of misunderstanding was there between Joshua and herself? Even if she was a monster with three heads and six arms, she would not be able to escape from this place. Did he have to station so many
people outside her door? As if she was some sort of monster that had to be guarded tightly even in her sleep.
She closed her eyes, sighed deeply, and lay on the bed t o get some rest. Even though one of her fingers had been snapped in half today, but luckily, in the evening a nurse gave her another shot of pain killers. She would be able to sleep through the night. She would worry about tomorrow when the time came.
Sometime later, she heard the rustling sound of the door opening. She opened her eyes in confusion and instead, saw a pair of clear, bright eyes. The intruder was wearing a mask, so Luna did not recognize him for a second.
Seeing that she was awake, he pulled his mask down, exposing his cold, handsome face.
Luna was so shocked that she was rendered speechless for a long while. This face belonged to...
"Luke Jones?!" 4
"Hush." Luke looked at her calmly. “What happened?"
