Neil spent almost an hour in Joshua’s study before he came out.
He carefully returned to the guest bedroom. Once he was under his covers, he texted, (Nigel, resume
the surveillance and recordings].
(Mmh.]
Nigel texted while controlling the system, (What took you so long?]
Even if the size of Joshua’s folders were huge, it would not take so long.
Neil was silent for a while before he picked up his phone and replied, (I saw some stuff on this
computer, and I copied them down. Will send it over together with the documents to you. It has to do
with Mommy].
(Okay.]
Unable to feel the change in his brother’s emotions, Nigel replied directly, (I ‘ve resumed the system. It
should be quite late over at your end. Rest. You can send me the documents tomorrow].
(Okay!]
After replying, Neil put his phone under the pillow and hugged his chest as he gazed at the ceiling in
the dark.
He had always been under his Mommy’s influence and under the impression that Joshua was a
cheating scumbag who did whatever it took to get rid of her. However, the things he saw on his
computer back there…
Neil sighed. He grew even more confused about Joshua; he seemed to be different from what he
thought he was Very different.
The next morning, Luna got one of the servants to send Neil back.
Anne stood by the entrance as she waited with unkempt hair. When Neil got down from the car, she
angrily rushed up to him and twisted his ear. “How bold of you! How dare you sneak out in the middle of
the night when I’m asleep? Luckily, you went to Luna. If you were to go somewhere else, how am I
going to answer your mother?“ She furiously bit her lip. “Neil Gibson, swear to me right now that you’ll
never do that again! “ Neil looked at the unkempt woman and knew she was worried about him, thus he
let her be. “I swear. I won’t do that again! “
“That’s more like it!“ Anne reached out and tugged on Neil’s sleeves. “Let’s go home. We’ll have
another round of sleep.“
Neil helplessly sighed and grabbed Anne’s hand as they walked back to their house.
“Sir.“ Lucas stood respectfully before Joshua in the President’s Office of Lynch Group. “That Neil kid
has
reached home safely.“
Joshua’s head was lowered. He flatly responded, “Hmm.“
“I don’t get it.“ Lucas hesitated for a long while before saying, “Neil drugged you so badly, and you
ended up in the hospital. Why do you still care for him and treat him so well?“
“Probably because I like him.“ Joshua gently lifted his head and noticed the documents in Lucas’
hands. “Is there anything else?“
Coming to his senses, Lucas cleared his throat and put the document in front of Joshua. “The
investigation report for the Ferris Wheel incident is out. The report states that someone planned the
incident that day. For now, the people that have been in contact with the main culprit won’t tell us who,
but I believe we’ll get a name soon.“
Joshua accepted the documents and flipped through them. “What else?“
“Also…“
Lucas put another document on his desk. “We’ve located the reporter that secretly photographed you
and Luna shopping together. Someone ordered them to do so, too. According to our analysis, these
two incidents were by the…same person.“
Joshua furrowed his brows and put the two documents side by side, studying them meaningfully.
