"When it's necessary..." Joshua paused. " We could use our deadliest weapon."
Luna's eyebrows furrowed at this as she asked, puzzled, "Deadliest weapon?”
What kind of deadly weapon did she and Joshua have?
"The deadliest weapon to make an old person happy." Joshua smiled lightly from behind. His low, deep voice rumbled against Luna's back. "Don't forget that we have three precious babies in the house, Harvey, June, and also Riley and Shelly."
Luna finally understood what Joshua was talking about. 'That’s right. Mom said she hasn't met her grandchildren yet." This was why Luna came up with a way to bring Neil and Nellie from Banyan City.
However, many things have happened in the past few days. Plus, both Rosalyn and Charles’ health conditions were not stable enough, so she had not brought the kids to visit them. If Rosalyn was too upset with Fred and Mickey's betrayal, she could bring the three children along with Harvey and June to visit her. Rosalyn would no doubt be thrilled to see those children.
If even this failed, that all five children could not make Rosalyn happy, two other babies were available, and this equated to all seven children in total. This would surely distract her from thinking about Fred and Mickey.
With that idea in mind, Luna finally was not worried anymore. She reached out to grab Joshua's hands on her waist. "You’re very thoughtful."
Joshua had always thought for her, guessing her thoughts and choosing the best solution for her family. What did she do for him?
She never believed in him and doubted him. She had to admit that Joshua was better than her in many ways. At least from the relationship aspect, she was too capricious and irrational, nowhere serious like Joshua was. These had been her characteristics for many years. She did not think she could change it, but...
"You told me that you want another baby. You want to be with me through the labor, that you want to see the child growing up with your own eyes, wanting to take care of me during the pregnancy. Right?"
Joshua squinted, ;a$:QIY< his eyes slowly turned red. "Yes." He kissed her chin and hoarsely teased, "What are you trying to tell me, huh? Had Mrs. Lynch made up her
mind?"
He grabbed her waist tightly with both hands to press her body closer to his. The light and soft breeze from the balcony was so comfortable that it could lull a person to sleep.
However, Joshua felt very much awake as he embraced Luna in his arms. "The moonlight is looking good tonight," he huskily said, "suitable for us to form a new life here on the balcony. Mrs. Lynch, are you interested to join me?"
His voice was hypnotizing.
Looking into his eyes and listening to his voice made Luna feel weak in the knees. She closed her eyes and kissed his lips.
"Yes, I'm..."
