Seeing that Joshua was staring at her, Luna curled her lips into a feeble smile. “What’s wrong? Didn’t you want me to appear before you so that you can bring me back to the mental asylum?“

The mental asylum: the place where she was locked in a windowless room and was subjected to inhumane tortures.

Joshua paused for a moment, then asked in a hoarse voice, “What happened to you?“

He knew that Luna was here, but he never imagined this was how she would look.

He had seen her only a few days ago. At that time, she was full of life, with pink cheeks and clear eyes. This was a stark contrast to what she looked like as she stood before him: colorless and frail, as though she would break into pieces at any moment.

Joshua thought that after being rescued by Luke and Gwen, Luna would be happy and carefree.

While on his way here from Banyan City, he even thought to himself how selfish Luna was. He thought she was a self-centered, inconsiderate mother who did not care about her children.
