If the bodyguards were being honest, then the boy that they saw that day should have been Neil.
Luna closed her eyes, lying on the bed tossing and turning, unable to fall asleep. She still could not accept the fact that Neil had been helping Aura. Because Theo told her that Neil just lost his memories, in essence, he was still the same boy. Besides, when Neil saw her walking in the pouring rain, he even sent her home on his own initiative. When she was locked up in the asylum, he also contacted her. If he was really brainwashed by Fiona and turned evil, why did he do all this?
If he was not brainwashed by her... Then the hacker that Nigel fought against and the fact that the bodyguards said they saw Nigel could not be explained.
No matter how hard she tried, Luna could not figure it out. In the end, she could only convince herself temporarily that the hacker Nigel met might be under Aura's employment, or it might just be a coincidence that he tricked Neil and stole his techniques.
Accusing her of being mentally ill might be because h e was used by someone else and did not mean it. But releasing Fiona...
She sucked in a deep breath, deciding to ask the bodyguards about this tomorrow and also take the
opportunity to check the hospital’s CCTV recording. What if the bodyguards were lying? She could not suspect her own son without firm evidence.
At this thought, she closed her eyes, forcing herself not to dwell on the matter. She could make a final conclusion tomorrow after asking the bodyguards and checking the CCTV cameras.
Early the next day.
Nellie slept peacefully through the night. When the little girl awoke, Joshua was still asleep.
The early morning sun shone through the curtains, looking particularly bright and warm. Under the rays o f the sun, the little girl looked at her father who lay in front of her, his eyes closed in sweet slumber, and could not help but reach out, running her fingers over his face.
The little girl’s fingers were cool to the touch, her skin soft and tender. At this foreign feeling, Joshua frowned, his eyelids fluttering open.
The moment he opened his eyes, he saw his daughter’s pretty little face, her eyes round and dark like two blackcurrants, blinking at him continuously, looking particularly cute.
He lifted his lips, not removing her fingers from his face. Instead, he reached out gently and pinched the little girl's chubby cheek. "Did you get a good night's sleep?”
"Very!” Nellie smiled cheerily at him, her eyes curling u p into two tiny crescents. Then, she carefully retracted her hand. "Before meeting Daddy, I was always jealous of how the other kids could sleep with their daddys." Then, the little girl sighed, "How nice it would be if you can sleep beside me more often in the future! Waking up to Daddy's handsome face next to me every morning, just the thought alone makes me so happy!"
Joshua curled his lips in a smile. "If you want, I’ll sleep beside you more often.”
"But...” Nellie sighed. "We don't have many chances to do anything anymore. Mommy is leaving Banyan City with Nigel and me; we won’t be coming back anymore.”
At this thought, the little girl’s mood dampened. "If only you can work hard to make Mommy stay."
