When he heard the sounds of water in the bathroom, Joshua closed his eyes and sighed.
At that moment, his phone rang.
It was news from Lucas downstairs.
“Sir, I’ve checked on it. Theo is currently in the police station, and he’s accusing us of premeditated harm
toward Luna. According to his statement, two groups were chasing after them, trapping him and Luna
from the front and back. They had to fight for their lives to escape. He also said…“
Lucas was silent for a while. He cleared his throat gently.
“He also said that we brought five escorts and that we planned on using the escorts to defile Luna, then
take a video of her with them to threaten her.“
Lucas furrowed his brows. “No wonder he’s an artist. What vivid imagination he has…“
With his brows furrowed a little, Joshua gripped his phone tighter.
He glanced at the bathroom. Luna’s words a moment ago haunted his ears.
“Why did you have to get five to six escorts to sleep with me just to avenge Alice? You sure do think
highly of me.“
Joshua lifted his hands and rubbed the middle of his brows.
He somewhat understood why Luna was so crazy that day, stripping in public and boldly seducing him. It
turned out…
Joshua closed his eyes and sighed. “Go investigate this.“
Lucas, on the other end of the call, was silent for a while.
“Sir, you want to check into this matter? It’s obvious that the painter is trying to slander us! We never
even— “
“What if someone has been using our name?“ Joshua coldly interrupted him.
“Theo isn’t someone who likes to lie. Luna’s not someone who’d be easily tricked by a lie, too.“
If both of them were so sure about this, that proved that someone was indeed chasing after them the
night before.
“ ..Yes,“ Lucas replied depressingly and hung up.
When Joshua kept his phone, Luna also finished removing her make-up and got out of the bathroom.
It was totally different from a moment ago. Luna’s face was no longer caked with make-up, yet she was
still so gorgeous that one could not take their eyes off of her.
Joshua looked at her for a while before giving her an indifferent glare. “Let’s go.“
Luna pursed her lips and immediately followed him closely, going downstairs.
Downstairs, Lucas was already gone.
Once the bodyguards downstairs noticed Joshua and Luna coming down, they could not help but lower
their heads. They did not dare look at Luna.
Luna pursed her lips and gracefully followed Joshua into the car.
Once the car started, she tiredly let out a yawn and casually lowered her eyes.
She noticed that Joshua’s right arm was bleeding. Blood seeped through the sleeve.
Luna hesitated a little. She suddenly thought of the incident at the factory the day before. If it were not for
Joshua pushing her away in time, the rock would have shot firmly at her back.
The least she would suffer were injuries; the worst case was paralysis.
She looked at the bleeding wound and bit her lips.
What on earth was Joshua like as a person? He could heroically rescue her when she was in danger, yet
he could also treat her in the most despicable way just because she hit the woman that he loves.
“Last night.“
Seeing her looking at his injuries, Joshua furrowed his brows a little. He cleared his throat. “Last night, I
did indeed get Lucas to look for you.“ Luna instantly felt suffocated at Joshua’s words.
