The entire atmosphere in the room was so awkward that it bordered on suffocating.Luna let out a sigh and glanced at Joshua. “I admit that I misunderstood you, but…” She lifted her head to look at him. “I don’t think it’s entirely my fault. After all, these men were once under you, weren’t they?”Joshua nodded. “Yes, that’s true, but that’s not what I’m talking about, Luna.” His gaze never wavered from her face. “You’re Neil and Nellie’s adoptive mother. I’m glad that you care so much about them, but you must remember that ultimately, they belong to Alice and me. Therefore, you have no right to say we don’t deserve to be parents.”Joshua then smirked and continued, “Take this misunderstanding, for example. I wasn’t the one who sent these men over to protect Aura, but even if I did, what gives you and Malcolm the right to target me on behalf of my children?”Luna froze at that. She felt as though every joint in her body stiffened, and her blood had turned into ice.Joshua’s words f

Joshua stopped in his tracks and chided, “Just because I’m sticking up for Luna, you think I’ve fallen for her?” He curled his lips into a contemptuous smirk and added, “How about you, Dad? You’re very protective of Hailey as well. Does that mean you’re in love with her?”Adrian grew furious the moment he heard Joshua’s words. He slammed his fists against the table and roared, “How dare you even say that, Joshua? I’ve been friends with Dennis for such a long time now. Hailey is like a daughter to me! Besides, she’s dead now—how dare you even say such disrespectful things?”Joshua chuckled. “No one is certain whether she’s truly dead or not, but…” He turned around and glanced at Adrian. “I learned this from you, Dad.”Adrian was so enraged that he began struggling to breathe. “You b*stard! How dare you even talk to your father like this?”“If I’m a b*stard, what are you, Master Lynch?” snapped Joshua before he turned and left the room, slamming the door behind him.Adrian flipped t

The glimmer of hope in Luna’s eyes dimmed as she heard Joshua’s response. Her hand started to shake.Luna let out an exhale and tried to compose herself so as not to let Joshua hear how devastated she was. “Mr. Lynch, even if you think I’m just worrying too much, I still have my reasons for doing this.”“Since I’m willing to give Mrs. Lynch all the credit for my hard work, isn’t that a bonus for both of you? If that happens, she can work for Lynch Group without fearing anyone’s opinion…”Joshua leaned against his car seat and chuckled. “If I want to let my wife work for me, I wouldn’t even care what any of my employees think.”Luna’s hand stiffened. Joshua continued in a low voice, “She’s my wife; she can take over any job position as long as I see fit. She doesn’t need to take credit for your work to do so.”Luna felt as though something had hit her.He was right.As long as Joshua wanted to, he could offer Alice any position he wanted in the company. He would even let her be

Luna immediately lunged forward and shoved Alice aside.The glass frame was smashed into smithereens, and there was a gaping hole in Luna’s face in the photo where Alice had stepped on with her high heel. Thankfully, Nigel’s half of the picture was still intact.This was the last photo Luna had taken with Nigel before she came back to Banyan City. Every time she felt tired and burnt out, she would look at the photo, and it would magically give her the motivation to persevere.However…Luna frowned and picked up the remaining shreds of the photo. The broken shards of glass cut into her finger, but she did not seem to feel any pain. She wiped the blood off and gingerly put the photo into her pocket.“Director Luna…” The rest of the employees were gathered around her door with worried faces and contemplated whether to help her or not.Alice automatically sneered when she saw how devastated Luna was. “It’s just a photo of you and Neil. Why are you so upset about it, Luna? It’s not li

“No… Of course not.” Alice bit down on her lip and stared at Joshua with a pitiful expression. “I wasn’t upset with you. On the contrary, I’m thrilled to be able to work at Lynch Group. I know that the reason you wanted me to come in to work is that you didn’t want me to feel bored at home, and also because you wanted me to get used to this place so that we can work together in the future, but…”Joshua narrowed his eyes. “But what?”Alice sighed and glanced at Joshua. “I was scared that if I start from the bottom, the rest of the employees will look down on me. Even though I’m the CEO’s wife, I still have to start from the bottom to climb to the top…” Alice wiped her tears and continued, “Joshua, you know that I was born into an ordinary family in Sea City. My family isn’t wealthy, and I’ve always felt insecure about that…”Joshua’s brows furrowed upon hearing that. He gazed at her red-rimmed eyes and heaved a deep sigh. “You’re right. Working with someone as skilled as Luna might’v
