Natasha scoffed and tilted her head away, her eyes full of contempt. “What a waste of good soup! “
Alice sighed and grabbed Natasha’s hand. “Mom, please don’t say things like this. The whole reason why Luna is in the hospital right now is because of work. She put in too much effort into work and overexerted herself, so making her soup is the least I can do.“
With that, she shot Luna a disdainful glance. “Am I right, Luna?“
Luna bit down on her lip but did not say a word. She felt like someone churned her heart with a knife.
She finally got to taste her mother’s cooking but could not display her delight for fear of exposing herself.
Her birth mother stood right before her. However, not only did she ignore her, but she was also showing her affection toward someone else—an imposter.
Alice caught sight of the anguish in Luna’s eyes and smirked. She had planned all that on purpose.
Alice had visited Natasha in the morning and found out that Luna Gibson loved drinking Natasha’s soup whenever she was sick. Therefore, Alice convinced Natasha to make the soup and brought her parents along to visit Luna.
She wanted to make Luna miserable. She longed to see the agony in Luna’s face when she realized she had no one to turn to.
Since Luna had destroyed her home and landed her father in prison, Alice was determined to let Luna have a taste of her own medicine. She wanted Luna to feel the same pain she went through.
Not only that, but Alice planned to turn Natasha and Joseph, Luna’s birth parents, against her!
The worst suffering a person could feel was the pain of having their loved ones turn against them.
Alice wanted Luna to realize that she should not have returned to Banyan City in the first place. Since she had given up being Luna Gibson, she should not have returned!
