Luna, who was cooking, paused. "Joshua's out working."
When Luna returned, she had called him and asked if he was coming home for dinner. It was rare for her to cook dinner, so she had hoped he could come home to eat dinner with her and the children.
Alas, Joshua said he had already made an appointment to meet a business partner in Dark Night Bar tonight. Thus, Luna could feel sorry for him for missing out on her delicious food this time. She was not a person who would disrupt Joshua's work arrangement because she wanted him home to have dinner together.
Despite that, she did not expect to see Yannie here, looking for him. She thought for a while and walked to the door while taking off her apron. "Why don't I call him and ask him to come back now?"
Yannie shook her head immediately. "No, it's fine. It's the same as telling you, too."
Luna and Joshua were a married couple, and they loved each other very much. Yannie trusted Luna to relay every single word she said to Joshua. She did not want to bother Joshua from work because of her and Thomas.
Luna nodded and started to record with her phone while leading Yannie to sit on the sofa.
Yannie took a deep breath. "Luna, I know for a fact that you and Joshua don't have a good impression of Thomas...but there's a reason why Thomas did what he did."
She looked at Luna and slowly told her about what Thomas said regarding his and Joshua's mother without leaving any parts behind. She even told Luna how Thomas said Luna and Joshua deliberately took Riley to be their own daughter after Joshua and Luna's baby died during birth.
All the while, Luna sat quietly and listened. In the end, she raised her head and looked at Yannie. "Hey, Yannie, do you still not know about...your baby?"
Yannie, who was talking about Riley with Luna, was caught off guard by the question. "My baby?"
