Natasha looked at Luna in a daze.
After a while, she wiped her tears away and nodded. “ Yes. If I was her, I would do the same thing too…“
A mother should know and trust her daughter the best, yet…
Seeing how badly Natasha was sobbing, even if Luna was cruel, she could only sigh.
She passed a tissue to Natasha. “Wipe your tears.“
Inside, mother and daughter were confessing their heartfelt feelings to each other. Outside, Zach and Yuri were looking at each other.
“I’m a little sleepy.“ Yuri yawned. Zach rolled his eyes at him. He wanted to say something when he saw a person flash by at the staircase.
He furrowed his brows alertly. “Who is there?“
After a while, a woman in a black trench coat and black-framed glasses walked up. She was hidden in the dark, so no one could see her face clearly.
“Hello.“ She chuckled lightly and walked over. She shook her phone which had been turned off. “I ‘m here to visit someone, but my phone died. Could you lend me your phone? Let me make a phone call.“
Zach furrowed his brows looking at her. He said nothing.
Yuri, on the other hand, kindheartedly passed his phone to her. “Make it quick. Don’t stay here too long.“ “Thank you.“
The woman accepted Yuri’s phone and went downstairs. Once she made sure that Zach and Yuri could only see her figure but could not hear her, she stopped in her tracks.
She swiftly found [Boss Neil] under contact and called.
At that moment, Neil was still in the living room at Blue Bay Villa, doing arts and crafts with Nellie.
When the phone rang, he looked at the screen and frowned a little.
Why would Yuri call him at that moment? Did something happen to his Mommy?
He furrowed his brows and picked the call up.
“Neil, “ a woman said in a crying voice, “I ‘m your Grandma, Natasha. Your Mommy told me everything. Her phone died, so I used the bodyguard’s phone to call you. Could you come over? Don’t let Joshua know. I just want to see you, please?“
Neil gripped onto his phone and hesitated for a moment.
“Okay. Wait for me.“
Then, Neil hung up. He looked at Nellie, who was still engrossed in her art.
“I have something important to attend to, stay put at home.“ Then, he walked over, picked his jacket up, and left.
When he was by the main entrance, he bumped into Joshua coming back.
Seeing Neil dressed up, Joshua slightly furrowed his brows. “It’s late, where are you going?“
“My godmother is looking for me.“ Neil lied without flinching. He immediately walked past Joshua to the opposite side of the road and hailed a taxi.
Standing by the main entrance, Joshua looked at Neil leaving. He narrowed his eyes a little.
When the taxi reached Luna’s rented apartment, it was already nine at night.
Getting out of the taxi, Neil took a deep breath as if he was making a huge decision. He walked upstairs.
