Luna sat on the bed. The beads of sweat on her forehead from the nightmare lingered when Malcolm went to talk to her.
Luna bit down on her lip as her heart grew conflicted with emotions. She was no longer the kind of girl that would be mad because of a relationship. She understood that everyone was an adult and that prioritizing relationships, family, and career was different for everyone.
Still...Luna made her biggest priority Joshua, but he did not do the same.
How important was Joshua to Luna?
He was so important to her that, no matter what he did wrong, as long as he said it was a misunderstanding and explained it, Luna would always forgive him.
But it turned out...Luna had never been Joshua's most important priority. 1
She felt as though...she had taken out her heart and handed it to Joshua, but he asked her to queue up from the back.
Luna stared at the wall in front of her blankly. At that moment, she did not know whether she should give Joshua a chance. Luna wondered if she should set her dignity aside to give him a chance to explain himself.
Not hearing her reply, Malcolm knocked on the door again. "Luna. Previously, Hunter had interrupted the signals between this yard and Banyan City. Now that Joshua is here in Merchant City, Hunter hasn't had the chance to do anything, but he’ll cut off all signals between the yard and the outside world once he gets the opportunity. If that happens, you won’t have any chance to talk to Joshua anymore.
"Don’t be mad. Come out and give him a call. If the misunderstanding can be resolved, I’ll be happy too."
Luna let out an exhale and was finally convinced. She got up and opened the door to take Malcolm's phone.
Her hands started sweating from nervousness while she held onto the phone.
After a while, a deep male voice rang out from the other end of the line, "Hello?"
"Joshua."
Initially, Luna had a lot to say to him: her complaints, her sadness, even a lot of anger to let out on him.
However, when she heard Joshua's voice, all she could do was bite down on her lip and cry in silence. She could not even say a single word.
"Luna?" Joshua grew excited when he heard her voice. "You finally called me."
