Joshua narrowed his eyes and shot Luna a cold glance. “Don’t be so rude.“

He lifted his head and picked up the microphone. “ Everyone, I’m so sorry that you had to see this.

However, the Lynch family has its own rules and its own ways of dealing with problems like this.“

He continued, “We’re all gathered here to celebrate Granny Lynch’s birthday. Everyone here is a friend or

relative of the Lynch family, so I’m sure you’re all familiar with how we do things around here. If a single

word of this gets out…“

Joshua’s gaze turned hostile. “I’m sure you know what will happen.“

The crowd grew silent immediately. Everyone glanced at each other, not knowing what to do.

It was obvious what Joshua was trying to convey: not only did he refuse to call the cops, but he did not

want to punish Aura either. Instead, he wanted to keep everything on the down-low.

Everyone in the room was puzzled. Joshua insisted that there was nothing going on between him and

Aura, yet at the same time, he was willing to show her mercy, despite the fact that she had tried to kill his

own daughter. What was going on between the two of them?

Luna stood motionless. Her heart felt as if someone had run a knife across it, and it was now bleeding.

She lifted her head and fixated her wrathful glare on Joshua. ”Mr. Lynch ! Nellie is your daughter ! ”

”Yes, I am well aware of that.” He glanced at her dismissively and picked up the microphone again. ” We’

re all gathered here today to celebrate Granny Lynch’s birthday. It was meant to be a joyous occasion,

but unforeseen circumstances have ruined this party. I apologize for that. In order to show my sincerity, I

will have my assistant prepare gifts for everyone.”

Joshua glanced at the emcee. ”Please keep the party going, but unfortunately, I’ll be leaving now.”

The emcee reached for the microphone that Joshua handed over with a panicked expression. ”Alright…

let us continue… ” He walked in front of Joshua and tried to liven up the atmosphere of the room. ”

Ladies and gentlemen, today is Granny Lynch’s 8oth birthday party… ”

Still standing on the stage, Luna bit down on her bottom lip. She never expected everything to turn out

like this. She had brought out evidence of Aura attempting to kill Nellie, yet because of Joshua’s

nepotism, Aura got off scot-free!

He was indeed very loyal to her. Luna smirked at the thought of this.

Meanwhile, Joshua strode over to Aura, who had been standing motionless, and grabbed hold of her.

Aura did not come back to her senses until after she had been dragged away.

His grip on her was very tight, and her wrist started to hurt. Aura swiveled her gaze and said in a

seductive tone, “Joshua, stop, you’re hurting me! “

Joshua ignored her and proceeded to drag her away from the scene. Aura’s voice grew faint as they

moved further and further away.

Aura’s tone had brought Luna back to that rainy day, six years ago.

On that day, from outside the door, Luna had heard the exact same voice shouting Joshua’s name. In

that instant, her entire body had turned cold as ice.

A drop of tear slid from the corner of Luna’s eye and down her cheek. She immediately wiped it away.

She couldn’t understand why she was crying for Joshua, even though she hadn’t loved him in a long time

now.

“Luna.“ Malcolm walked over to her side and gently patted her shoulder. “Come, let’s go.“

The two stars of the show had already left. It did not seem right for her to still be standing there.

Luna closed her eyes and nodded. Then, with Malcolm’s arms wrapped around her shoulders, they got

down from the stage together.

Neil had been watching all of this unfold from a distance. Upon seeing his mother’s distressed

expression, he could not help but clench his fists. Joshua Lynch was a scumbag!
