Luna lifted her head to stare straight into Granny Quinn's eyes. "Of course I’m willing."
"Luna!" Malcolm, who had been lying face down on the table, suddenly grew outraged when he heard this. He resisted the pain in his entire body as he reached out t o grab hold of Luna’s arm. "Are you crazy? To host such an extravagant ceremony means that Joshua will find out, too! If he finds out about all this, he’ll be devastated..."
Luna bit down on her lip and shrugged Malcolm's arm away. Then, she took a step forward so that Malcolm would not be able to grab onto her. "Malcolm, it's already enough that you've been keeping my interests at heart, but why are you taking Joshua's feelings into account as well? i
"You've already sacrificed so much for other people. You should think for yourself, too."
With that, she let out an exhale and turned to stare at Granny Quinn. "Granny, you can have the final say on how you want the engagement party to be hosted tomorrow. This time, I won't run away or go back on m y word anymore."
Luna turned around and glanced at Malcolm, who was covered in blood, and said, "I'll keep my promise and take good care of him."
With that, she strode over to Malcolm's side and ordered one of the servants to summon a doctor. Then, with the help of the rest of the servants, she picked the motionless man up from the table and placed him back into his wheelchair.
When she wheeled Malcolm to the entrance of the yard, Luna paused in her tracks and said, "Since I've already agreed to your terms of marrying Malcolm, please don't ever make his life difficult again. He's already paralyzed and is no longer the head of the Quinn family anymore."
With that, she wheeled Malcolm into the entrance and disappeared from view.
As soon as the door was closed behind her, Hunter and Granny Quinn exchanged a glance, sinister smiles playing on their lips.
Daylight came.
Inside a five-star hotel in Merchant City, Joshua spent the entire night up working.
He still remembered his promise to Luna that he would bring her home after a week in Merchant City.
Today was the last day.
