Regarding the incident in the Golden Triangle, Luna didn't mention what happened to her afterwards.
Everyone believed that everything was over, but it wasn't.
Abigail glanced at Simond and said, "You don't need to help me investigate. Contact your people and leave quickly!"
Simond shrugged. "Add me on WhatsApp. I'll reimburse you double the amount you spent on me."
"I don't need the money. I helped you so that you would stay away from me in the future. We were just passing acquaintances. Don't contact me again." She didn't want any further interaction with him. Who knows what enemies he might have made abroad?
She didn't want to be implicated by Simond.
The man didn't insist and simply smiled as he played with his phone.
At noon, Luna came out of the intensive care unit.
Abigail sat by her bedside, observing her exhausted appearance. Her eyes couldn't help but well up. "Why didn't you tell me anything? I was really worried about you."
Luna's lips were pale. She asked Abigail, "What about the child..."
"The child is in the incubator. They're fine. Don't worry." Abigail held Luna's hand and answered with concern.
Only then did Luna feel relieved. She closed her eyes and continued to rest.
When the doctor arrived, Abigail immediately asked, "Can I give her some supplements? She's very weak right now."
"Remember to avoid any inflammatory foods. It's best for her to have nourishing meals, like chicken stew and fish soup. These are suitable for pregnant women. You can prepare them for her," the doctor advised her in a gentle tone.
She nodded repeatedly. "Are there any medical staff here? I want to hire someone. I can't handle it alone."
"Yes, the hospital can arrange that for you. Just remember to pay the hospital fees when the time comes," the doctor replied.
After thanking the doctor, Abigail went out to find the house where Luna was staying.
The nanny had given her an address, but she was unfamiliar with the area. She had to ask for directions to avoid getting lost. Additionally, she needed to find a market for groceries.
In this small town, there were more elderly people on the road, with hardly any young people. Even if there were, they were mostly teenagers with colored hair wandering the streets.
After leaving the hospital, Simond entered Luna's room.
He stood at the foot of Luna's bed and looked at her.
Luna woke up from her sleep and was greatly startled when she saw the unfamiliar Simond. She clutched the blanket and trembled. "Don't... Don't take me. I... I'm done with Josh Pearson!"
Simond walked over and gazed at the terrified Luna. Then, he suddenly smiled. "I'm Abigail's friend. My name is Simond Simpson. Don't panic. I'm here to take care of you."
