Inside the ward, the two women locked eyes with each other.
After a long silence, Fiona curled her lips into a disdainful smirk and stared at Luna. "Just admit it, Luna. You can't compete against me. If you leave Banyan City along with your children immediately, I might even consider letting you go.
"However, when I eventually lose my patience, even if you leave and try to hide, I’ll let Joshua find you and bring you back here. When that happens, I want you to watch your son transfuse blood to me every day, until one day, his entire body runs dry!"
Luna glowered at her with narrowed eyes. "How dare you!"
"Why wouldn’t I dare?" Fiona sneered. "Don't pretend that you don't know how much I mean to Joshua and how far he's willing to go for me."
Then, she turned around and glanced at Luna as though she had suddenly recalled something. "By the way, I remember you used to have two more children, right? One of them died because you and another woman were fighting over Joshua, and another died o f a miscarriage. Am I right?"
Fiona continued to stare at Luna as a snake-like grin stretched across her face. "I heard that you almost
lose your mind after their deaths. Why don’t you tell m e this? Do you think if anything bad happens to your remaining two children, you'll really go insane?"
At this point, Fiona was grinning so widely that her face almost split into two. "Do you think maybe you're cursed? You had four children, but there are only two left. Maybe the remaining two will also-’’
"Shut up!” Luna, who struggled to suppress her emotions all this while, was utterly enraged by Fiona’s words.
She did not want to get into a conflict with Fiona here because she knew that no matter the outcome, Joshua would still think it was her fault and force her to apologize to Fiona.
However, the harder she tried to tolerate Fiona, the more outrageous she got!
She could not believe that Fiona was suggesting something like this!
Luna lunged forward and grabbed hold of Fiona’s neck. "You better shut up right now!"
