Chapter 2269


    Seeing how Luna hesitated, Nellie quickly got on her feet from behind.


    “Uncle Theo. I promise that I’ll help you get Aunt Rachel back!”

    Nigel, too, joined in as he closed hisptop and said, “I can help too, when you need me.”


    As they finished expressing their willingness to help, Nellie looked back at her eldest brother


    unconsciously. They made eye contact, and both of them could see helplessness appearing in their


    eyes.


    They had eaten the blueberry cheesecake baked by Neil himselfst night. Ever since Neil lost his


    memory a year ago, he started to develop an interest in cooking. Very often, one would find him


    meddling in the kitchen and trying new recipes. After a year, he was already capable of cooking


    delicious, tasty food that was serviced by restaurants.


    Since Nigel and Nellie understood there was no free lunch avable in this world, they were willing to


    adhere to Neil’s wishes.


    Luna sighed and looked at Theo remotely upon noticing both Nellie and Nigel offering to help.


    “Theo, you should know that I’m quite reluctant to help you.” Theo’s pupils darkened as he heard what


    Luna said. After a while, however, he smiled bitterly.


    “I know. I never really expect anyone to help me since I did all of this to myself…”


    “If you need any help, Luna and I will still help you,” Joshua interrupted indifferently before Theo finished.


    “After all, you’ve saved Neil and Nellie’s life.”


    If Theo was not there to protect Nellie and Neil and used himself as a target to attract the enemy’s


    attention from attacking them both, Nellie and Neil would never have had the opportunity to escape


    separately.


    Most importantly, Neil and Nellie would no longer be by their side. This was a debt the Lynch family owed


    to Theo, and they would eventually repay him for it.


    Previously, Joshua did not know how to repay this favor, but at this moment, he had found the best way


    to do so.


    Theo smiled bitterly. “I saved Neil and Nellie because it’s what an adult should do. I didn’t expect any


    returns from you, so—”


    Joshua interrupted again, “We’re helping you because we’re your friends, not because we want to return


    the favor. After all…”


    He held Luna tightly by her shoulde said, his voice watered down withment,” Even when Luna thinks


    that you did it all to yourself, but…”


    After a sigh, he continued, “Who never made any silly mistakes in their rtionships, anyway? If I didn’t


    do anything wrong, Luna won’t leave me for six years, and I won’t be absent from witnessing the first six


    years of my children’s life.”


    Luna’s heart suddenly stopped beating when she heard what Joshua said. She turned her head around


    to look at him. His dark pupils had a hint of sadness. She clenched her fists tightly.


    ‘I see…so he takes to heart about missing the first six years of the children’s life. I thought…’ said Luna


    to herself.


    Just then, Luna’s phone rang. It was a call from Rosalyn.


    “Luna!” Rosalyn’s voice sounded frail as though she was sobbing.


    “Where are you and Joshua? Can you return to the mansion? Something happened!”
