Chapter 3021
Luna rubbed her eyes in exasperation. "We can't.
"When John left the city, he specifically requested for Joshua not to follow him or attempt to track him down because he wanted nothing to do with any of us, so…Joshua did exactly as he asked. He didn't send any men to keep an eye on them or track them down. Now…we have no idea where John or little Sammie went."
This was the reason she had gotten into that fight with Joshua.
She could understand John's unwillingness to be affiliated with any of them and knew full well that John hated her guts out of all of them, but…
She could not help feeling that Joshua could have done more to protect John and Sammie. Even if he had to fulfill John's request, he could have secretly sent some men to keep an eye on them so that they could be aware of John's whereabouts.
Although Luna did not intend on intruding in their lives…
She sighed. "I just miss them so much."
All she wanted to do was keep an eye on them from afar, and all she wanted to know was that John and Sammie were alright.
The least she could do was make sure that the last two people who were linked to Anne were safe and sound, and if anything were to happen, she could reach out to offer help if needed.
However, Joshua failed to do so.
He chose to let John disappear without a trace, just because John asked him to.
Luna was very much concerned about whom John would reach out to for help if he needed it, and when she questioned Joshua about this, Joshua's reply infuriated her even more.
Joshua had told her that as a man, John should have the responsibility of protecting his daughter at all costs, and if he could not even do so, there was no point continuing to live anymore.
This spiraled into a huge fight that resulted in the both of them refusing to speak to each other.
Gwen was silent for a moment after hearing this.
A split second later, she paused and said, "I think Joshua was right to do this.
"If you were to continue keeping an eye on John, you wouldn't be able to stop yourself from helping should they get into trouble, and no matter how cautious you think you are, you're bound to slip up, and John will be furious when he finds out.
"And they'd be in even bigger trouble if anyone found out about their whereabouts, so when John told you not to track him down, Joshua was right to oblige.
"Also, I trust that John will be able to raise Sammie all on his own, and besides…"
Gwen paused. "Perhaps he might even remarry in the future, and we should give him our blessings for this. I know that as Anne's best friend, it's hard for you to swallow this pill, but we have to try our best to understand. Let's not overthink this more than we should, Luna. It's time to let go.
"It's been a while since Anne's death now, and I'm sure she wouldn't want to see you fight with Joshua over her."
Luna was silent for a long time. Then, she curled her lips into a bitter smile. "It's easier said than done, isn't it? Gwen…"
She closed her eyes, and her voice began to shake. "My best friend died because of me. Even though Jacqueline also paid the price, I can't shake off the fact that Anne will never come back. How can I… How can I let this go?
"Can you let go of Luke's death?"NôvelDrama.Org owns all © content.
