Nathan frowned. “Since Luna is your employee, shouldn’t you reprimand her for being promiscuous and
having a complicated personal life?“
Joshua chuckled. “It’s not like she’s my wife, so why should I care about all this?“
Everybody froze as soon as they heard that, even Luna. Her expression darkened. It turned out…
Joshua still thought she was promiscuous and impure.
The reason he had defended her in front of the Allens was not that he trusted her, but because—
He did not care about her at all.
Luna gripped the hem of her shirt tightly.
She had always known that Joshua did not care about her. Even if he did, it was just temporary because
he wanted to have fun with her.
However, Luna still could not help but feel a twinge of pain in her heart when she heard what Joshua had
said. She felt as though someone had pricked her with a needle, and her heart oozed blood.
Meanwhile, Nathan was so shocked by this sudden turn of events that he did not know what to say.
Joshua turned around and glanced at Nathan and Celeste. “If I remember correctly, you two have
decided not to take Luna in as your future daughter-in-law, right?“
Celeste snorted in indignation. “Of course. We won’t allow our son to marry a s1*t like her! “
“Well, since you’ve already changed your mind about the engagement, then what are you doing here?“
Joshua shot them a stern look. “Since she’s not going to be marrying your son anymore, why do you
care about her personal life? What does any of this have to do with you?“
Celeste furrowed her brows. “She seduced my son! If it weren’t for her, Theo wouldn’t have come here
so early in the morning! “
“The stitches on Luna’s shoulder burst last night, and she was in so much pain that she passed out. She
spent the entire night in the hospital, and I was with her. She never contacted Theo ever since they
parted ways last night, so how can you say she seduced him?“
With that, Joshua glanced at Theo impassively. “Did Luna ask you to come here?“
Theo paused for a moment, stunned, then finally realized what Joshua was trying to do. He immediately
shook his head. “No, no! Luna didn’t contact me at all. I came here all by myself to look for her…“
As soon as he said this, Joshua smirked. “Did you hear that, Mr. and Mrs. Allen? What you have to do
right now is keep an eye on your son instead of causing a scene at my building entrance.“
He then turned around and glanced at Luna. “You should go in first.“
Luna pursed her lips, lifted her head to gaze at Theo, then finally turned around and entered the building.
“You…“ Celeste was seething with rage when she saw Luna disappear into Lynch Group Tower.
However, she did not want to offend Joshua further, so she had no choice but to swallow her rage and
keep quiet.
“Lucas.“ As soon as Luna entered the building, Joshua gave a stretch and ordered, “Get Zach and Yuri
to guard the front doors and tighten up security all around the building. Don’t let any troublemakers into
Lynch Group Tower.“
“Yes, Sir! “
The color drained from Celeste’s face as soon as she heard that. Nathan, too, was so angry that he
balled up his fists.
“Joshua Lynch! “ He snarled through gritted teeth and glared at Joshua’s retreating figure. “How dare you
treat us like this? Did you forget that you were supposed to collaborate with us? We’re the only people
who can supply you with the precious ores you want! Aren’t you afraid that we’d forfeit the contract and
refuse to do business with you anymore?“
