Chapter 518
At Centro Hospital, Andrius and Halle stood beside Luna’s bed.
Neither of them spoke.
Andrius had no words, and Halle did not know what to say. She was having a difficult time processing her complicated feelings.
“Ugh…” Luna suddenly moaned and slowly opened her eyes.
“Luna, you’re awake! How are you feeling?!” Halle got closer and asked how she was doing.
“I’m fine.”
Luna shook her head. She looked around and found herself in a hospital ward. Beside her was Andrius
and Halle
She clearly remembered seeing a masked man jumping onto the stage. The headache knocked her out cold after that, and she could not remember what happened. She asked, “Halle, what happened? Who
saved us?”
“It’s…” Halle subtly peeked at Andrius before she told Luna what happened. “It’s the Wolf King. He saved you. You were under some voodoo witchcraft spell, and then…..”
The Wolf King?!
It was really him!
Luna already had a hunch, but when she heard it from her friend, she could not help but be in awe.
Andrius turned on the news while the girls chatted.
The news was out. It was Dick and Colin who poisoned the beverages, and they were already arrested by the police for further investigation.
“Oh, right…” Luna thought of Dick and Colin. She asked, “Halle, did you see Uncle Dick and Colin? Are they fine?”
They were family after all, and the father and son had apologized. She did not wish for anything to happen to them, and she did not want her grandfather to be sad.
Halle pondered for a moment and shook her head. “It was really chaotic back then. I didn’t see them.”
“They’ve been arrested by the police,” Andrius said.
“Arrested?!”
The girls were stunned.
Andrius continued, “They were the ones who poisoned the drinks. The news is out.”
The girls pulled out their phones and searched for the news.
When Luna saw the headline, her face turned pale.
“I… I… I was too soft. If I didn’t bring them to the dinner, nothing would have happened. it was my fault. I’m
sorry.”
Luna put the blame on herself and regretted being too soft on her uncle and cousin.
On top of that, grievance drowned her. She felt aggrieved. She was kind to them, but the father and son
duo tried to harm her.
They were family. Why would they try to harm her?
“Luna, it’s not your fault.” Halle held Luna’s hand and said softly, “It’s their fault. They are the bad guys. You started off with good intentions. They should be the ones apologizing.”
“…” Luna understood the situation but could not control her emotions.
“It’s difficult to judge a book by its cover,” Andrius said with a shake of his head. “There are good people and there are bad people, and there’s only a thin line in between that differentiates them. One step is all it takes to cause irreversible damage.
“They are blinded by grudges and greed, so it’s only a matter of time before they suffer the
consequences. It’s inevitable. You are kind, and that’s a rare quality. You don’t need to blame yourself for
that.”
Their consolation made Luna feel better. Then, she said, “I know what you guys mean, but Grandfather must be so upset.”
“Grandfather Belarus might be old, but he’s a wise man. Don’t overthink it,” Andrius said
Luna calmed down and her face looked less pale.
After a while, Halle got up and said, “Luna, I have something to do back at my office. I have to go now
“Alright. Andrius, why don’t you see Halle out?”
Andrius then walked Halle out of the ward.
A few steps later, Halle stopped. She turned around with a helpless smile, mocking herself. She said, Andrius, I asked a lot of people and thought of many possibilities to find out your true identity, but I somehow excluded the possibility of you being the Wolf King.”
