see whether he’ll lose his mind when he finds out!”
Simon didn’t show up at the hospital the next morning.
In the afternoon, Susanna came to Luna’s ward. After reporting on the wedding preparations, she hesitatingly glanced at Luna.
“Say what’s on your mind,” Luna mentioned, her sleek brows furrowed slightly.
Susanna nervously glanced at Luna and whispered, “Mr. Fulmer asked me to deliver some documents to the villa this afternoon. When I arrived, I saw Sophie Sutherland sitting on the living room couch in her pajamas.
“Mrs. Fulmer, you’ve always been kind to me; I just couldn’t stand by and say nothing. I thought I should let you know.”
A chill crept up from the soles of Luna’s feet, and her delicate face turned cold.
It seemed that Sophie had already moved into their home while Luna was still hospitalized. No wonder Simon had specifically told her last night to inform him before she was discharged so that he could pick her up.
“I understand. Thank you.”
Luna picked up her phone from the table and opened the surveillance footage, which was completely dark.
Simon had deliberately covered the surveillance camera in advance.
With a frown, Luna turned to Susanna, who had not yet left.
“I’ll find a way to get Simon and Sophie out of the villa tonight. Please get someone to reinstall the camera. Make sure it’s discreet.”
“Understood, Mrs. Fulmer,” Susanna replied.
At 10:00 pm, Simon arrived at the hospital. He looked at Luna lying on the hospital bed, his dark eyes filled with guilt.
“Lulu, did you ask me to come because you missed me? I’m sorry, I was busy all day—”
Luna frowned, cutting him off and offering him an excuse to avoid putting him in a tough spot. “I know. You were busy preparing for my birthday party, which is why you’re visiting so late.”
Simon was momentarily stunned but then smiled as he took Luna’s hand and gently squeezed it.
“As expected of you, Lulu. You know me best.”
Luna fixed her gaze on Simon and agreed, “Yes, I do understand you. I understand everything you do.”
Simon’s heart skipped a beat, and he mumbled, “Lulu…”
Just as he was about to say something, a nurse came in with a cart to replace Luna’s IV.
The next day, Luna opened the surveillance footage and saw Sophie and Simon having lunch together in the villa.
Sophie sat in Luna’s usual spot, pouting and refusing to eat. She claimed her pregnancy had caused her to lose her appetite.
“Be good and take care of yourself.” Simon patiently spoon-fed her. “Once the baby is born, I’ll figure out a way to have Lulu accept our child as her godchild.”
Half an hour later, Sophie had eaten too much. She waddled upstairs with a smug expression, her belly protruding.
Simon called the house staff over and spoke to them in a low, commanding tone. “Sophie is pregnant and has a short temper. Be patient with her. Also, none of you are to mention her moving in here to Lulu when Lulu comes back!”
“Yes, Mr. Fulmer,” the staff responded.
Luna watched the surveillance footage calmly.
Then, she looked away and began instructing Susanna to prepare the wedding invitations. She intended to finalize the guest list for the invitations today.
