Luna nodded.
"Well, Roanne could've chosen not to help Charlotte at all.
"Perhaps you should think of it as all the suffering that you, Bonnie, Jim, and the rest of the Landry family are going through now was all part of Roanne's doing as well.
"Do you still pity her now?"
Luna was rendered speechless when she heard this.
Joshua was right; Roanne ended up in such a state because of karma for helping Charlotte carry out her despicable acts all this while.
Seeing the way Luna looked, Joshua let out a sigh, walked over, pressed Luna onto the couch, pouring her a cup of tea. "If you have the time and mental energy to pity someone else, why don't you start pitying yourself instead?
"Previously, when you were still unconscious, Jim and Charlotte didn't choose to do anything to you, but now that you're awake, they might start causing you trouble starting tomorrow."
Luna took a sip from the cup of tea that Joshua handed her. "I'm not scared... because I have you with me."
These simple words were like meteors shooting into Joshua's heart, sending ripples in his previously-calm heart.
He could not believe his ears. "What...what did you just say? "
Luna bit her lip and lowered her head. "You heard me the first time."
No matter how reluctant she was to admit i t, this was the truth...
She felt safe with Joshua by her side, especially after finding out about Joshua's plan for bringing Theo with him to find Roanne.
Because of this, she felt that as long as Joshua was with her, there was nothing they could not solve.
That afternoon, when Joshua had said that he wanted to drive a wedge between Charlotte and Roanne at Tea Cottage, Luna thought he was just dreaming big.
