CHAPTER 96: CHAPTER 96: TOOK LUNA’S HAIR FOR A TEST

When Elias Warner was leaving, Luna suddenly woke up.

She wore her hospital gown, rushed out of the room, grabbed Elias Warner’s hand, and said plaintively, "Daddy, where are you going? Are you abandoning Luna again?"

"Luna, Daddy is going to bring Mommy here to accompany you as soon as possible, okay? Daddy is going to pick up Mommy right now!"

Elias Warner held Luna’s hand, squatting down to soothe her.

Luna obediently nodded.

"Daddy, I’ll wait for you to come back! You’re not lying to me, right?"

"Daddy isn’t lying to you. Be good, Mommy will come to be with you soon!"

Luna’s eyes were red as she waved goodbye to Elias Warner.

Doctor Flora held her close.

After Elias Warner left, Luna was in a bad mood, sitting on the bed despondently.

Doctor Flora didn’t know how to comfort such a young child.

For such a young kid, not having mom and dad by their side must really be heartbreaking.

Luna curled up alone in the corner of the bed.

Doctor Flora was unsure how to console her.

At that moment, a rabbit toy stepped out from the door, approaching Luna, and greeted her.

"Luna, I’m Peter Rabbit, sent by your daddy to be your friend, so you have to stay happy! Daddy and Mommy will soon come to be with you, and until they arrive, I’ll stay with you!"

Peter Rabbit greeted Luna.

Only then did Luna manage a weak smile.

This furry little rabbit could sing and dance like a real friend.

But Luna knew in her heart that daddy might not come back this time.

Doctor Flora comforted her: "Luna, you need to recover well so that no matter where daddy is, you can go find him."

"Mm, Aunt Flora, I will!"

Luna thought Doctor Flora was right; only by becoming healthy could she go find her daddy.

In the afternoon, Chase Perry, unable to stop worrying, came to Luna’s hospital room.

He had already found out about Elias Warner’s flight plans beforehand, which gave him the courage to come by.

He also confirmed the situation with Flora.

Seeing Luna playing unhappily with a little rabbit, he felt heartbroken.

"Uncle Chase!"

Upon hearing footsteps, Luna looked up to see Chase Perry.

"Luna, have you been resting well lately? Any trouble?"

"Uncle Chase, I found my daddy, but he left again. He probably won’t come to see me anymore. He argued with my mommy, so does that mean our family can’t be together anymore?"

Although Luna didn’t know what Elias Warner and Annelise Winter talked about, she could tell from Elias Warner’s expression that daddy was definitely angry with mommy.

"Luna, you still have Uncle Chase to be your daddy!"

Chase Perry playfully tapped Luna’s nose.

"No, I want to find my daddy! You’re Uncle Chase! Uncle, daddy said mommy is at home, can you take me to find her? Daddy said he would go find mommy too!"

Luna’s large eyes sparkled as she looked at Chase Perry, earnestly hoping he would agree to take her home to find mommy and daddy.

"Alright, Luna, why do you insist on seeing that uncle who visited you as your daddy? Is he better to you than Uncle Chase?"

Chase Perry felt a bit jealous.

He had taken care of Luna for so many years, yet she never recognized him, and now Elias Warner comes by twice, and she accepts him as her daddy!

"I’m sure he’s my daddy, Uncle Chase, I’m not lying to you, he is my daddy!"

Luna cried more sorrowfully than ever.

As if Chase Perry would forcibly separate her father from her.

Chase Perry’s eyes reddened.

Such a small child, growing up without a father by her side.

Now he’s married, even though he is nominally her father, he can’t bring her anything.

He left Luna’s room on the pretext of going to the restroom.

And called Annelise Winter.

Annelise Winter at this time was still at Kybourne Hospital.

Only after Uncle Ford left did she retrieve her phone from the restroom.

Unexpectedly, as soon as she got the phone back, Chase Perry’s call came through.

"Annelise, where are you? Is Renee Perry still refusing to let you go? Are you in trouble again?"

Chase Perry knew that if Annelise Winter weren’t in trouble, she wouldn’t miss Luna’s surgery and would have come to visit her long after the operation.

She must have some unspoken anguish.

"You don’t want to tell me because you don’t want to owe me a favor? But I’ve told you before, no matter what you ask of me, I’m willing. Just say the word, I’m here!"

Chase Perry spoke with a trace of excitement.

"I... I’m fine. You’ve already helped me enough, you’re married now, I shouldn’t trouble you anymore!"

Annelise Winter was genuinely grateful to Chase Perry.

Even though his wife was her least favored sister, June Winter, she couldn’t let Luna’s situation destroy his family.

The previous events have already damaged his relationship with Elias Warner.

"What are you saying? You know I have no feelings for June Winter... I was forced to marry her! Moreover, my help for you is sincere, without any ulterior motives!"

"Alright, Chase Perry, I don’t want to talk about it anymore. Leave my affairs out of this!" Annelise Winter hung up the phone.

When Chase Perry called back, Annelise Winter didn’t answer.

Annelise Winter must have wanted to see Luna too.

In the past, he selfishly wanted Luna to recognize him as her daddy. Now he sees Luna’s persistence.

He decided to take Luna back home.

He then called his assistant.

"Hello, book me a flight from Breslin to Kybourne for tomorrow, quickly!"

"Sure!"

The assistant agreed readily.

June Winter, dressed in a white gown, stood at the stairwell of the hospital, seeing Chase Perry making a call.

She had seen Chase Perry come out of Luna’s hospital room.

She clenched her palms.

These days in Breslin, she always felt Chase Perry was hiding something from her.

He constantly used excuses of coming for hospital check-ups as a reason to visit this hospital.

Even when asked to visit nearby hospitals, he refused, insisting on coming all the way to this one.

Turns out there was a reason.

While Chase Perry was on the phone, June Winter carefully entered Luna’s room.

Luna was huddled in the corner, sorrowful and unnoticed by anyone entering.

June Winter stood at the room’s door, observing Luna’s face, which resembled Chase Perry’s by seven or eight parts.

Instantly, she seemed to understand.

Goodness, Chase Perry deceived her.

Having a daughter before marriage this big.

June Winter quickly went forward, feigning concern for Luna: "Little one, why do you look so unhappy? What’s the matter? Who is that man outside to you?"

Luna didn’t answer June Winter.

June Winter slowly approached Luna, gently patting her head, seizing the chance to take Luna’s hair and stash it in her bag.
