"Ms. Blake!"
"Fiona!"
Jude and Joshua both exclaimed as soon as they saw Fiona falling.
Joshua immediately rushed forward to help Fiona up before lifting his head to shoot Luna a murderous glare. "You've already witnessed how weak Fiona is. She was just talking to you, and she didn’t even say anything that was out of line. Why did you shove her like that?"
Luna stared at Fiona, who was slumped ashen-faced i n Joshua's arms, and smirked contemptuously. "She didn't say anything out of line, you say? Joshua Lynch, she mentioned my son and even said she wanted to become his godmother. Don't you think she’s trying to provoke me?
"What does my son have to do with her? Both I and Nigel aren't close with her, so why would she want to become his godmother? Why doesn't she just voice out her true intentions? That all she wants is to take my son away from me!"
Joshua, whose arms were wrapped around Fiona protectively, stiffened when he heard this.
He did not know that this was how Luna felt about Fiona. However, she was mistaken. Fiona did not
want to take Nigel away from her at all.
Fiona had told Joshua that, after donating her bone marrow to Nigel, she and him would have a connection. Therefore, her last wish was to hear Nigel address her as godmother. This was all it took to make her life feel complete, i
"I only have less than a year to live anyway, so even though I can't become a mother, it'd be nice to hear a child call me godmother. I'd be content with that, even if I can't have children of my own..." Joshua recalled Fiona's soft voice when she told him this at the hospital. "It’s just, I don't know if Ms. Luna and Nigel would agree to this..."
At that time, Joshua tried to reassure her and told her that they would discuss this next time.
