“Why did she choose to protect you this time?“
Luna turned her head aside; she did not dare to look at Joshua. “As I said, it’s because of Theo.“
Joshua’s gaze was too aggressive.
His dangerous gaze made Luna feel as if her secret would be exposed the very next second.
“Do you think I ‘d buy that?“ Joshua sneered. “Theo is indeed an artist that Gwen and Ben like, but the
main reason they like Theo is because of Alice.
Because Alice likes him, the two of them got to know Theo’s work and like his art.“
Joshua looked at Luna’s face. He wanted to see what sort of person she was from her face.
“Ben and Gwen wouldn’t have betrayed Alice because of Theo.“
Luna bit her lips. She did not know how to answer at that moment, so she took a deep breath and
turned to look at him. “You haven’t told me. Did you get those men to hurt Ben?“
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtJoshua looked at her. His gaze was ice-cold and ambiguous. “What do you think?“
Luna wanted to say that she thought that Joshua was the one who ordered them to do so.
However, she wanted to see what sort of lie he could come up with, so she chuckled. “What I think is
not the truth. It’s just like how I thought you would not
get me to drink at an event like last night, but I still drank in the end, isn’t it?“
Joshua’s gaze fiercely stalled. After a moment, he turned his head away from her and averted his gaze.
“I didn’t get those men to do it.“
His tone was cold and indifferent. “Those people are the local gangs of Sea City. Ben is a local
businessman and is also the son-in-law of Andy Larson. The Larsons had a feud with the gangs, so the
gangs were just finding a reason to take it out on Ben.“
He cleared his throat. “I got in touch with the gangs mainly to look for you and Theo. I didn’t know that
you two would be in Ben’s house. I was also not clear that Ben and the local gangs had a feud going
on.“
With those few sentences, he cleared himself of any responsibility for Ben’s injury.
Luna looked at him. After a while, he smiled. “Mr. Lynch, you sure are a tradesman. You have
principles.“
His principle was that at no time was he responsible for anything.
Joshua could hear the sarcasm in her tone.
He said nothing. He put on his shirt and leaned back on the sofa, scrolling through his phone.
The room fell in instant silence.
Luna also had nothing to do, so she sat on the other end of the sofa and started using her phone, too.
She tapped the Sea City local news notification. She initially wanted to see the changes of Sea City for
the past few years, but the moment she clicked on it…
It was a photo of her and Joshua.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmThe location of the photo was the room where she was with Joshua at that moment.
The photos were of her, either lying on Joshua, or clutching her chest with her hands while looking at
Joshua, or having both her hands around Joshua’s neck.
The headline wrote, (Heiress of Larson Group, Gwen Larson Reveals That Joshua Lynch is a Wife-
Cheating Playboy! ]
The report even stated in detail that when Luna and Joshua were doing those actions in the photo,
Joshua’s wife, Alice, was next door.
Everyone on the internet berated them. Luna almost saw black.
Those photos. If she recalled correctly, those were the photos taken with the pinhole camera!
Gwen and her father set up the pinhole camera. However, Gwen already knew her identity the night
before…
