Joshua curled his lips into a faint smile and sat down across from Jude. “What you’re suggesting is that
Luna sent these men to beat Irene up to get back at her?“
“Well, who else would it be?“ Jude smirked and continued, “This little girl said that she hadn’t offended
anyone lately apart from Luna. Why would the Walters’ men beat her up, if not on Hailey Walter’s
orders?“
Joshua closed his eyes slightly as he answered, “ You’re right about one thing. These men were
definitely acting on Hailey’s orders, but it doesn’t mean Luna…is Hailey Walter.“
With that, he opened his eyes to glance at Jude. “You mentioned that your men are sending Irene to the
police station?“
“Yes.“ Jude lowered his head to glance at the time. “ They should be there by now.“
“Alright.“ Joshua smiled and got up from the sofa. “ Lucas, let’s go to the police station.“
Jude’s entire body stiffened at his words. He quickly got up and stopped Joshua. “Just because you’re
going to the police station now doesn’t change the fact that you slept with Hailey! “
Joshua’s expression darkened at Jude’s remarks, and he turned around to glare at Jude coldly. “You’d
better take back your words! “
Jude furrowed his brows. “Joshua, how much longer are you going to lie to yourself? All of the evidence
suggests that Luna is, in fact, Hailey Walter, the woman that you hate with all your guts! Why are you so
reluctant to believe that?“
Joshua sneered and stared at Jude’s face. “I only believe something if I see it with my own eyes. Luna
can’t be Hailey.“
He smacked Jude’s arm, which had been blocking him, away and said, “I won’t believe anything, not
before I’ve gotten my hands on concrete evidence that she’s Hailey.“ With that, he strode out of the
room.
Jude stared in the direction Joshua had left and frowned.
If he remembered correctly…
Joshua had never been so certain about something before, not even when he was suspecting Alice.
Why was he so confident that Luna was not Hailey, even when there was no concrete evidence?
Could it be that…
Jude furrowed his brows.
Could it be that this man, who had waited six years for his wife to return, had fallen in love with another
woman?
At the police station.
“You suspect that your boss Luna was the one who sent people to beat you up?“ A young cop asked as
he scribbled on his notebook. He lifted his head to glance at the badly injured woman before him. “ Well,
do you have any evidence to support your claims?“
“What other evidence do I need? “ Irene pointed at her swollen face as tears streamed down her cheeks.
“ Isn’t this enough proof? I didn’t offend anyone else apart from Luna! Who else would it be if not her? “
The cop chuckled. “Miss, you can’t make baseless accusations like this. We need solid proof. You
suspect your boss Luna was behind this, and we can look into this for you, but unfortunately, we can’t
arrest her now. This isn’t realistic at all.“
Irene clenched her teeth. “Why can’t you arrest her?
You—“
“It’s because you don’t have any proof.“ Before she could finish, however, a low voice interrupted her.
Irene and the cop both lifted their heads and glanced in the direction of the voice at the same time.
“Mr. Lynch.“
“Hello. “ Joshua walked over and sat down next to Irene. “Please go on. Don’t mind me; I’m just here to
bring her home.“
“In that case, you can take her home now.“
