His words caused a wave of uproar.
The crowd was still discussing among themselves in hushed tones a moment ago, at thatf moment,
they could no longer care about their volume.
This was a dramatic turn of events!
Two minutes ago, Granny Lynch and Aura were still announcing the marriage date, two minutes later,
Joshua came in carrying his daughter announcing the canceling of their marriage!
“A person would have a change of heart.“ Luna sneered and looked at Joshua on stage.
“I have been with him for three years. He hated me so much he tried to kill me. Aura has been with him
for almost five years, perhaps he’s gotten sick of her.“
Actually, no matter what Joshua or Aura announced that day, Luna was not surprised.
They were heartless people. No matter what they did, it was understandable.
“It’s such a good show though.“
Malcolm stretched his arms out and rested them on the head of the couch behind Luna. He continued
watching the events unfolding on stage.

On stage, Aura’s face turned pale, then blushed, then pale once more. She bit her lips and said in
hushed tones, “Joshua, are you not going to save me from the embarrassment? I am a public figure
after all.
You…“
Joshua chuckled lightly, “Since you’re a public figure, you should not have played these dirty tricks.“
He bent down and whispered in her ears, “You’re betting that I would save Granny from
embarrassment, that’s why you did all this behind my back. Do you think I’ll accept it? I’m sorry, you
were wrong, Aura.“
Then, Joshua lifted his head and looked at the crowd arrogantly.
“Five years ago, I got engaged to Ms. Gibson. I’m sure everyone should be confused as to why I want
to get engaged to my wife’s sister after her passing.
“Since I’m calling off the engagement today, I’ll explain it to all of you, to save you the trouble of
speculating.“
Joshua held onto the microphone and said in a low voice, “Back then, when I was still with my wife, she
loved her sister, Aura, the most. Even if she did not earn much money, she still insisted on paying for
Aura to attend the most prestigious performing arts school.
“The first thing once she got married and came to Banyan City was to buy an apartment for Aura so
that she could stay in the city. Even when my wife didn’t have a job, she still let Aura, who was still
studying, become my assistant.
“I do understand how close she was to Aura. Even when she left me, she left me a letter asking me to
marry her sister and take good care of her.“
Joshua was looking at the crowd, but his eyes were looking past them into the distance.
“I initially, I felt that her suggestion was absurd, but after a year of her passing, I saw how when Aura
became a celebrity, she was starting to be poached by several directors wanting to sleep with her.
“So, in the end, I agreed to get engaged with her, for her to live in Banyan City as my fiancée. It was
highly effective, soon, no one dared to poach or harass her anymore. Back then, we agreed that the
engagement was just a fake one. If she finds someone she likes in the future, we’ll call off the
engagement. This was my way of taking care of my late wife’s sister. All these years, never have I

“I am calling off the engagement today because my daughter has come back. My wife is not dead yet. I
think I have not wronged my wife, nor have I done anything to Aura.“
Then, Joshua swept a cold glance at everyone. “I have explained myself clearly. If anyone still dares to
spread rumors, I will let them experience the power of the Lynch Group.“
The once noisy venue instantly quieted down upon his words.
Everyone looked at each other in silence. Luna was sitting on the sofa sneering.
Joshua was amazing. Not only did he perfectly explain his reasons for the marriage and canceling it,
but he also cleared himself and Aura of any wrongdoings.
That way, the two of them were completely
innocent. Not only did they not have an affair, but he also forbade anyone from mentioning it.
This lie that he created was of an extremely high level.
However, even if he could lie to everyone, she would not be tricked.
If Joshua and Aura were innocent, why did they kill her back then?
Back then, when she was pregnant, Aura was also pregnant with his child at the same time.
