Guilt and shame knitted together like a net, enveloping her entirely. She bit her lip, a hint of a sob in her voice. “Are
all of you still at the beach?“ She wanted to apologize to him in front of everyone, to say sorry and admit her
mistakes.
She let him down, failing to appreciate his care toward her. Right from the start, he treasured her and the children
in his heart. But she hurt him time and time again.
“We already left.“ Gwen sighed, “To tell you the truth, Joshua prepared quite a lot of surprises for you tonight.
Besides the fireworks show that would continue until midnight, he even prepared something else. The present he
prepared for you…“ Gwen sighed again, “He bought the first piece of work you designed abroad, he said it’s your
start and beginning. He wanted to give it back to you as a souvenir.“
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtLuna closed her eyes, tears finally dripping down her cheeks silently. Because she knew how difficult it was to buy
the first piece of work she designed as
Later on, when she became famous and had money, she wanted to repurchase her first piece of work, but the
buyer refused.
Because it was her piece of work, the buyer kept increasing the price, until it became an exorbitant amount. Later,
money alone was not enough to
satisfy the buyer. After all, collectors of fine jewelry did not need money.
The buyer put forward a lot of unreasonable requests, and only those who passed the test could buy this piece of
jewelry. Luna herself tried several times but failed to pass.
Joshua…He secretly passed all the tests and took back the piece of jewelry she wanted the most…
But she embarrassed him in front of everyone and directly threw the hard-won gift to the ground.
Luna felt like slapping herself. After a long while, she sniffed, “Where is Joshua, is he still on the beach?”
“He should still be there.” Hearing the hint of a sob in Luna’s voice, Gwen could not find it in her to scold her
anymore. “When we left, Joshua said he wanted to watch the fireworks on the beach before leaving. If you rush
there now…he should still be there.”
Luna took a deep breath and nodded fiercely. Hanging up the phone, she glanced at the gorgeous fireworks still on
display above the night sea. ” Excuse me, can you increase your speed?”
Ten minutes later, the taxi slid to a stop at the beach.
“Hello.”
As soon as Luna got out of the taxi, she bumped into the little guy who was walking in the opposite direction.
” It’s you.” She steadied herself and realized that it was Nigel who bumped into her.
The little guy turned the baseball cap on his head. “

It’s me.”
“Happy birthday.” Leaving this sentence behind him, the little guy lifted his legs and strode away.
Luna looked at his retreating back and sighed, then lifted her legs and rushed to the beach. Of course, Neil was
important, but right now, the need to see Joshua was more overwhelming.
There was a chair on the beach. The man in a black suit sat in the chair, gazing up at the fireworks with his back
against her.
“Joshua!” Luna bit her lip and practically flew toward him. “Joshua, I know now, I know everything! “
She rushed to him, tears flowing all over her cheeks, and was about to say something when she realized—
A fruit knife was sticking obscenely out of his belly which was wrapped in a thick layer of bandages.
Thick, red blood oozed out of the wound continuously, dyeing the bandages bright red.
