Alice gritted her teeth and scowled at the worker, “ Are you trying to shift the blame? Do you know I can
fire you…“ Before she could finish, however, Alice recalled that she was no longer Hailey Walter. She
was in no place to fire anyone because the factory and all its employees belonged to the Walters.
She shot the supervisor a murderous glare and snarled, “You’d better take care of this! “
That startled the supervisor. For a moment, this woman sounded almost identical to Hailey Walter. “ Yes,
will do! “
As she secured the supervisor’s guarantee, Alice turned around and glanced at Luna. “What are you
waiting for? Joshua saved you. Why aren’t you helping him?“
Luna paused, then realized she was right. She immediately walked over and grabbed hold of Joshua’s
other arm.
Although the injury did not break any of Joshua’s bones, the wound still looked quite serious. Joshua
was clutching his right arm as he grunted in pain, and Luna could not help but feel distraught at the sight.
She could not understand why Joshua saved her, and she did not know why she felt so worried.
“Come with me.“ The supervisor led them out of the factory frantically. When they reached the clinic, the
doctor took off Joshua’s jacket for him. It was only after his jacket was removed that they discovered
Joshua’s entire sleeve was drenched in blood.
The doctor frowned and pulled up Joshua’s sleeve, exposing the bloody wound. As soon as she saw the
laceration, Alice let out a shriek, “Oh my God! “
She glanced at the injury before she turned and glared at Luna. “It’s all your fault! “ She was so furious
that she raised her hand and headed toward Luna.
Before Alice could give Luna the slap she had intended to, Joshua stopped her. He raised his uninjured
left hand to block her path and said, “It’s just an accident. It’s not Luna’s fault.“
Alice bit down on her lip. “Joshua, if she paid attention and got out of the way in time, none of this
would’ve happened! “
Joshua curled his lips into a smile. “She’s too slow. She won’t be able to get out of the way in time.“
Although he was criticizing Luna, there was a hint of endearment in his tone.
Alice clenched her teeth and scowled at Luna. “If anything happens to Joshua’s arm, I’ll make you pay! “
Luna remained motionless and said nothing in return.
“Well, thank goodness no bones were broken,“ sighed the doctor. After performing a brief physical
examination, he injected local anesthesia into Joshua’s arm and started suturing his wound.
The supervisor watched on in panic and started to apologize profusely, “I’m so sorry, Mr. Lynch. It’s all
our fault. Don’t worry. I’ll look into this and punish whoever is responsible for this incident!”
Alice snorted in indignation. “Of course you will, but the person most responsible for this is Luna! ” She
glared at Luna and continued, “You must’ve done this on purpose! Although Joshua made me apologize
to you just now, he comforted me instead of you. You were jealous, so you didn’t get out of the way and
let Joshua hurt himself on purpose! “
