Luna sneered and looked at Joshua. “Aren’t I playing with fire every day? Jason might be a dangerous
man, but are you not as well, Mr. Lynch?“
Joshua’s expressions instantly darkened upon Luna’s words.
He narrowed his eyes and looked at Luna. His voice was cold. “Must you compare me with a person like
Jason?“
“That’s because you both are the same type of person.“
Luna chuckled a little. Her eyes were cool. “Not only are you both the same type of person, but you guys
are still a team too.“
Joshua furrowed his brows hard. He looked at Luna and enunciated, “Luna, I have already told you. I
have nothing to do with Jason.“
Luna smiled. “Who would believe you?“
“I can’t help you if you don’t believe me.“ Joshua looked at her deeply and went upstairs.
Upstairs, the door of the study was opened.
Luna stood in the same spot, looking at Joshua heading upstairs. She bit her lips.
Actually, from the moment Joshua rescued Nellie from Jason, based on their reactions, Luna had started
to be a little swayed already.
However…
She still could not be sure whether they were putting on an act or not.
After all, Joshua was still the greatest actor. His acting skills were amazing.
“Mommy, come and eat.“
At the dining table in the distance, Nigel called after Luna while taking food for Nellie.
Luna responded and headed over. She accompanied her two children for breakfast distractedly, while
trying to listen to the movements upstairs.
Joshua went up for a very long time. It was as if he was not planning to come down.
She paused for a while and waved her hand, calling for Lily. She gently instructed into Lily’s ears.
Lily nodded. She took off her apron and was about to head upstairs when Joshua had already come out
from the study and headed downstairs.
Standing by the staircase, Joshua coldly glanced at Luna. “You don’t have to worry about me overstaying
my welcome. I’m leaving.“
Then, Joshua placed the document under his arms, turned, and left.
Just when his hand was touching the doorknob, a little small hand tugged at him.
Joshua paused a little and subconsciously looked down.
Nellie, in a princess gown, was tugging on his sleeve. She was looking at him with her huge watery eyes
filled with reluctance. “Eat with us.“
Nellie spat those words out with difficulty. Joshua bent down, heartbroken.
He gently hugged Nellie’s head. “I’m not hungry, you guys go ahead.“
Although previously Nellie was not as mischievous a s Neil, she was still lively and adorable.
However, at that moment…
After Nellie witnessed Neil and Theo’s room being blasted, she changed.
Joshua sighed and gently patted Nellie on the back. “ You’ll get better.“
Nellie shook her head. She firmly grabbed onto his sleeve. “Eat with us.“
Joshua paused for a while. He subconsciously lifted his head and looked at Luna who was eating at the
dining table.
She calmly swept him a glance. Their eyes met.
Luna furrowed her brows and avoided his gaze. “ Then, stay. Lily made extra. There’s enough for all of
us.“
“Okay! “ Before Joshua could answer, Nellie answered on his behalf.
Joshua sighed helplessly. He placed the documents down, carried Nellie, and returned to the dining
table.
The atmosphere by the dining table was a little weird.
Joshua kept taking food for Nigel and Nellie without saying anything.
“Mommy likes this.” When Joshua placed some vegetables on Nellie’s plate, Nigel could not help but say,
“But Nellie never eats this.”
Then, Nigel looked at Joshua seriously. “Give them to Mommy.”
