Rosalyn sighed as she stared at Malcolm. "I know how much you've sacrificed for Luna over the years...but I can tell that Luna doesn't love you at all."
Malcolm's expression darkened when he heard this. However, he suppressed his emotions and lifted his head to stare at Rosalyn with a small smile. "Aunty, even if Luna doesn't love me, I can eventually make her fall for me.
"As long as I love her, that is enough."
Rosalyn let out a helpless smile as she gazed at the man in the wheelchair. Then, she leaned against the headboard and said, "But do you really love Luna as you claim?
"I'm getting old now, and I've seen plenty in my time. I can easily tell whether you love Luna or not and whether you're telling the truth.
"It's just that my body has been weak lately, and I have to get plenty of rest. I can't change Charles' mind about anything as of now."
She closed her eyes and curled her lips into a smile. "If my health gets better, I won't need to keep Luna by my side anymore, and by then...I'll let her go.
"I hope that you, Master Quinn, will be able to set her free as well."
Malcolm's expression darkened upon hearing this. He narrowed his eyes and replied, "If freedom is what Luna wants, then of course I won’t stop her."
With that, he turned and wheeled himself out of the room.
As soon as the door closed behind him, a glimmer of malice flashed through his eyes.
Since Rosalyn said she would let Luna go as soon as she recovered...
He would not let her recover at all!
The front yard of the Landry Mansion.
Luna strode in front of Joshua, leading him out of the mansion. Their journey had been a safe one, with no one managing to recognize him.
Just as they were only a few meters away from the front door, Luna could not help letting out a sigh of relief.
