Luna's current condition was a result of her illness, causing her body to stiffen and her loss of interest in everything around her.
As Luna gazed at Abigail, she expressed her concern. "You've already taken care of me enough. Don't waste any more of your time. I understand that you're busy and didn't get much sleep last night. I know you've been under a lot of pressure because of me, and I'm feeling the pressure too. I don't want to continue burdening you."
Abigail's eyes turned red as she responded, "What do you mean by burden? When someone is sick, it's necessary for someone to take care of them. You only want to talk to me, and you trust only me. If I were to leave, what would you do?"
She continued, "Yes, I may feel a little uncomfortable and tired, but I'm willing to endure it for your recovery. As long as you get better, my tiredness and discomfort don't matter."
"You and Sean have come so far. Are you going to break up with him because of me? I don't want our relationship to be affected like this. Please go back. I'll take care of myself." Luna took two steps back. "I don't want to waste your time anymore."
"Can you really take care of yourself? Every time you eat a lot, you end up vomiting and getting angry. Then, you refuse to eat. You hardly eat anything. How long can you continue like this? Go wash up!" Abigail's tone became serious.
Luna burst into tears once again. "Living is so painful."
"Luna, think about Larry. He's getting better. Think about how he's doing, and remember that he's your child. You promised to recognize him in two years." Abigail stepped forward and gripped her shoulder.
Luna suddenly calmed down.
"Larry..." she whispered softly. After that, she felt a mix of sadness and tears welling up at the thought of him.
"It's okay. Freshen up and eat something. You need to get better. We have to catch those who did this to you," Abigail reassured her.
With Abigail's reassurance, Luna freshened up and had breakfast.
Abigail turned on the TV and selected a movie she had prepared. "Let's watch this movie today. I heard it's pretty good."
It was a monster movie that had been released many years ago. Luna had always wanted to watch it but never found the time and eventually missed its theatrical release until today.
Halfway through the movie, Abigail noticed that Luna had fallen asleep.
Even her favorite things couldn't hold her interest anymore.
Abigail decided not to turn off the TV and continued watching it herself.
After a while, Simond sent a message.
'If things don't work out, come back to Capitalis to relax. Don't involve yourself further if Luna isn't better by then.'
'I'm not as fragile as you think,' Abigail replied to the message.
'You asked me to investigate this old man, but I haven't found any issues so far. However, we will continue to monitor. Also, regarding the sleeping pills I gave you, don't give them to her all the time. She doesn't have ordinary depression; her body has developed some resistance to medication.'
She also sensed it.

Updates?...
I hope you get rid of this wicked girl, Callen, (she is not worthy of Sean or any of his extended family) and Mr Hinton and let Sean and Abigail live in peace … put the drama on someone else. Colby needs to enjoy his grandchild....
Sean and Abigail need a proper wedding including the handmade dress saved by Sean. Please don’t get them into another long separation and let them be happy with children as the story continues....
Thank you for the update...
Sean is not a mind reader, Abigail needs to be explain the whole story starting with Luna’s swearing her to secrecy regarding the child, the genetic issues and Martin’s assistance in stabilizing the child’s genes so he could be genetically tested. Abigail blames Sean for her situation but it’s due to her not being honest. They need to settle this, get married and have a child of their own....
