”I know there’s no way I can get out of this now, and I’m willing to admit to everything right now, but first, I
want you to contact Joshua Lynch. I need to see him.”
10 a.m.
Lucas immediately rushed toward Joshua after he finished up the meeting that had been interrupted the
day before. ”Officer Wilson called just now saying that Hunter has admitted to killing Cheryl, but…he
wants to see you.
Joshua, who was tidying his notes, froze when he heard this.
Hunter wanted to see him?
He did not remember ever having anything to do with this man at all.
However, this was the person who had killed Cheryl, and if he wanted to meet up, Joshua had no reason
to refuse.
Joshua put down the papers he was in the middle of tidying, adjusted his collar, and headed straight to
the police station.
When Joshua’s black Masevati pulled to a halt in front of the police station, Luna and Charlotte were
coming out of it, in the middle of a conversation about Landry Group.
Luna was a little surprised to see Joshua as soon as she came out of the building, and Joshua was just
as shocked as her.
What surprised him was that the person who had come to pick Luna up after she was acquitted was
neither Charles nor Jim, but a woman in sunglasses he had never seen before.
When he glanced at Luna, she, too, was staring straight at him.
Their eyes met.
Luna froze for a moment, then sneered. ”What are you doing here, Mr. Lynch? Are you here to celebrate
me being acquitted, or are you trying to come up with a way to send me back into jail?”
Joshua smirked, staring at her. ”What do you think?
The fact that he had tossed the question right back at her meant he did not want to answer at all.
Luna sneered and was about to say something when Officer Wilson suddenly sprinted out of the police
station. ”You’re finally here, Mr. Lynch! If you take any longer, Hunter Quinn will start to think I’m making
empty promises!
”He has admitted to his crime and is about to be sent into prison, but he’s still waiting for you!”
Officer Wilson’s sudden appearance broke the awkward tension between Luna and Joshua.
Joshua followed Officer Wilson into the police station. ”My assistant didn’t pass on the message
immediately, and I only found out about this after my meeting. Otherwise, I would’ve been here earlier
The two of them brushed past Luna as they entered the building.
Luna remained motionless, unable to believe her ears.
How could it be that the first person Hunter would want to see after admitting his guilt was Joshua?
Hunter was a Quinn, and Joshua was a Lynch, and these two should have been mortal enemies, so why
would…
Why would Joshua even be on talking terms with Hunter?
”Are you shocked?” Charlotte asked as she dragged Luna toward the parking lot. She continued as she
opened the car door so that Luna could get into the car, ”When the police were capturing Hunter, Joshua
was the one who had helped him escape.
”If it weren’t for Joshua, Hunter would have been arrested earlier, and you couId’ve gone home last
night.”
Luna was a little confused by this. ”But Hunter and Joshua can’t possibly be accomplices…”
No matter how heartless Joshua was, he would never employ someone to kill Cheryl, not to mention
s*xually assault her before murdering her.
”They’re definitely not accomplices.” Charlotte chuckled. ”However, the longer Hunter stays outside of
jail, the longer you’ll be stuck inside.”
Luna’s heart froze over when she heard this.
