A furious Jonell stormed back to his study and demanded, "What do you want to say?!"
"We've sacrificed too much for Luna. It's time to lay low and wait until the people in Carl's family leave. Only then we can make our move," urged Jamie.
At the mention of Luna, Jonell's demeanor softened slightly.
"We can't hide forever. Our best bet is to strike back," he said calmly. "I'll take back everything they've done to me, one step at a time!"
Jamie couldn't persuade Jonell, so he reluctantly gave up.
Once he left, Jonell remained seated for a while in contemplation before eventually rising and heading downstairs via the elevator.
It was his first encounter with the building's elevator. Despite reaching the ground floor, no one exited, and the doors remained shut.
He glanced at it briefly before shifting his gaze away.
…
Meanwhile, in the basement.
Luna gazed up at the ceiling.
The artificial blue sky and drifting white clouds above changed every day, but no matter how she looked at it, it seemed unreal.
When the door opened, she remained entirely unaware that Jonell had approached her side. He glanced up at the ceiling before sitting down. "Isn't it a nice view?"
Luna remained silent.
Jonell noticed the scattered clothes and leftover food on the bedside table. He rose to tidy up the room and said calmly, "No one's here to boss you around anymore. Sean is lost at sea, and Abigail and her subordinates have gone back home."
When they mentioned their names, Luna showed a slight reaction.
"Come with me. Let's start fresh in Monfort. Once things calm down, I'll take you to see a doctor and make sure you're taking your medication." Jonell's voice softened.
Luna ignored him and fixed her gaze on the ceiling.
Jonell didn't push further.
She was usually silent anyway, and he had gotten used to it.
After roughly tidying up, he turned and left.
As soon as he was gone, her eyes slowly filled with tears.
There was a time when she wanted to end her life, but Eric told her that Abigail and Sean never gave up on her, and even the Pearsons were waiting for her return.
Abigail had endured a lot for her sake. So, even when times were tough, she could persevere.
But now, because of her, Sean was in trouble... Would Abigail really not blame herself?
She had contemplated taking her life again, but there was nothing here to help her do it.
Luna felt consumed by guilt.
…
In the evening, Jamie rushed into Jonell's room with a pale face. "Luna had a medical emergency. She needed to be taken to the hospital for a blood transfusion!"
Jonell frowned. "What happened?"
"The doctor said she seemed to be under some kind of stress. Did you say anything to her?" Jamie asked in a low voice.

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....
