Jacqueline froze at this. “You… You’re willing to sacrifice yourself for Anne? This was impossible! Luna was not the kind of person who would do this, nor would she ever be! This was the woman who killed Fiona-her sister! How could a woman like her possibly be willing to sacrifice herself for someone else, much less a friend who had no blood connection to her at all?
“Isn’t this what you wanted the most?” Luna raised her brows, staring coldly at Jacqueline, and pointed the dagger at herself. “I’ve told you-you should take out your hatred on me, not anyone else!”
“Luna!” Joshua’s eyes widened in shock as he watched Luna pointing the dagger at herself. He stepped forward, trying to stop her. “Don’t do anything rash! Don’t hurt yourself now-there might still be a chance!”
Even though Luna did not know that Anne was no longer alive, Joshua knew it as clear as day.
Since everything had gotten to this stage, there was no point feeling sorry about it any longer. What mattered the most now was to get ahold of Luna and stop her from harming herself!
“What chance?” Luna curled her lips into a bitter smile. “Joshua, you were trying so hard to distract me, first bringing me shopping, then to the salon for a makeover. Do you think I had no idea what you were trying to do? I know you’re just doing this to stall time and prevent me from discovering what happened to Anne!”
The color drained from Joshua’s face at this. He furrowed his brows, then nodded.
“Yes, you’re right, but…” RêAd lat𝙚St chapters at Novel(D)ra/ma.Org Only
“I guessed that you probably found out about what happened to Anne, and you’re just trying to distract me to prevent me from finding out, and at the same time trying to save her before I discovered the
truth.
“This is Banyan City, for God’s sake-you and Jude’s territory. If not even the two of you managed to save her after a whole afternoon, there’s probably no hope left.” With that, Luna turned to stare at Jacqueline. “Even though I don’t know how you managed to evade Joshua and Jude’s search
She raised the dagger again, pointing its sharp tip at herself. “I know your target is me, and if I’m willing to sacrifice myself right here, you should let go of Anne. You can do anything you want to me, but Anne is innocent, and she shouldn’t get involved in this.”
Jacqueline could not help furrowing her brows at this.
The truth was…her plan had been flawed since the start.
Willow and James were just simple-minded thugs, and she never expected them to be able to carry out such an intricate plan.
The truth was, she had only come up with the idea of kidnapping Anne after discovering that Anne and John were the only two people Joshua and Luna chose to contact after returning to Banyan City.
In the past, she thought Luna and Anne were just ordinary friends, but the fact that
Anne was one of the only people to know of Luna’s return signified that she was someone dear to Luna’s heart.
Jacqueline never put much thought into this kidnapping at all, but after Luna mentioned it, she could not help feeling a little dubious.
How could a thug like Willow manage to evade Joshua and Jude’s search? Was it possible that Anne had been successfully rescued by them?
At the thought of this, Jacqueline frowned and immediately tapped on her phone, trying to initiate a video call with Willow to confirm Anne’s status
If Anne had been rescued by Joshua, this whole thing would turn her into a laughingstock!
“No!” Joshua instinctively reached out to snatch Jacqueline’s phone from her at this sight, but it was too late.
Jacqueline had already pressed the button.
Within a few seconds, the call was connected.
