Neil spent almost an hour in Joshua’s study before he came out.He carefully returned to the guest bedroom. Once he was under his covers, he texted, [Nigel, resume the surveillance and recordings]. [Mmh.] Nigel texted while controlling the system, [What took you so long?]Even if the size of Joshua’s folders were huge, it would not take so long.Neil was silent for a while before he picked up his phone and replied, [I saw some stuff on this computer, and I copied them down. Will send it over together with the documents to you. It has to do with Mommy].[Okay.]Unable to feel the change in his brother’s emotions, Nigel replied directly, [I’ve resumed the system. It should be quite late over at your end. Rest. You can send me the documents tomorrow].[Okay!]After replying, Neil put his phone under the pillow and hugged his chest as he gazed at the ceiling in the dark.He had always been under his Mommy’s influence and under the impression that Joshua was a cheating scumbag w

After a while, Joshua waved his hands. “Please leave.” Lucas nodded, turned, and left. He shut the door on the way out.With eyes narrowed, Joshua looked at the two investigation documents in front of him as he knocked his large hands on the desk. After a while, he smiled bitterly. Putting the two documents together, only one name appeared: Aura Gibson. It was obvious.She wanted Nellie dead. She wanted to get rid of the people who treated her best.Joshua shut his eyes. Aura. She was Luna Gibson’s most beloved sister. Even before she left, she had a will that asked Joshua to take good care of her younger sister.The other person was the daughter he had with Luna Gibson.“Luna, you gave me a challenging problem to deal with.”…Lynch Mansion.Aura had waited in the hall for half an hour as she held an intricately wrapped box in her arms.“Is Granny Lynch up yet?”Looking at the servants lazing around in the mansion, Aura was rather impatient.The servant looked at he

“Nonsense!”Aura’s tears infuriated Granny Lynch. She slammed the teacup on the coffee table with vengeance. “Back then when Joshua wanted to get engaged to you, no one in the family agreed to it, yet he insisted on it, saying how he was fulfilling Luna’s will!“Now five years have passed and the family has finally accepted you, yet he’s planning to call off the wedding? Is this just a game to him?”Granny Lynch looked at the jewelry on the table before she turned to look at Aura benevolently. “Aura, don’t worry. You’re filial, and I’ll help you. Joshua must’ve been seduced by that maid, and he must’ve been confused for a moment when he said he wanted to break off your engagement. Don’t worry, I won’t allow Joshua to call off the wedding.”Aura bit her lip as her expression was riddled with grief. “Granny, I’m relieved to hear that. You treat me well…”Then, Aura wiped her tears away. “Since Granny treats me so well, I have to do the same. Please accept these gifts today. I reme

“No need.”Luna smiled. “It’s a small matter.” Then, she turned around and walked gracefully to the two bodyguards. “Let’s go.”Her graceful and aloof attitude stunned the bodyguards. Even the driver was stunned.Was this woman only a maid? Why was she so graceful and calm at handling sudden matters?“Let’s go.”When the bodyguards were still in a daze, Luna had already walked past them and headed to the sedan by the side. She opened the car door and entered the car.The two bodyguards came to their senses and hurriedly got into the car and drove off.The driver saw the sedan vanish from sight, and he carefully picked up his phone and dialed Lucas. “Mr. Bean…”...Granny Lynch was waiting for Luna in a private room of a restaurant.The bodyguard pushed the door open and Luna walked in calmly. She sat in front of Granny Lynch. “Hello.”“You’re Luna?”Granny Lynch furrowed her brows a little as she scrutinized the woman with intricate facial features in front of her. “As expe

Luna picked up the check and looked at it aloofly. “One million is a lot of money.”“Of course,” Granny Lynch harrumphed coldly. “Take it and keep it well. Don’t say I didn’t warn you!”“You have a point.” Luna swiftly kept the piece of check into her bag. “But, the fake necklace on your neck is probably worth much less than a million, right?”Upon the mention of a fake necklace, Granny Lynch was stunned for a while. Then, she sneered. “You b*tch. How manipulative of you. Just because you heard me say that this was given to me by my granddaughter-in-law, you purposely say that it’s a fake?”Granny Lynch rolled her eyes and looked at Luna condescendingly. “You lowly unworthy servant. What do you know of imitations? My future granddaughter-in-law is a prim and proper person. She’d never buy any imitation! It’s you who don’t know how to appreciate them!”Granny Lynch glared at Luna fiercely. “Since you’ve taken the money, I take it as a promise from you. Find an excuse and leave Bl

“Yes.”Luna looked at him seriously. “After all, in the Lynch family, I am worth a million dollars. Asking for a raise isn’t too much, right?”“It isn’t.” Joshua put the check down and leaned back. He changed into a more comfortable posture and looked at Luna. “You brought me this check just so you could ask me for a raise?”Between the two of them, Joshua was the one sitting while she was standing, yet he had such an overpowering aura that Luna felt like she was the one looked down upon.Luna nodded. “Of course.” Her face was devoid of any emotion. “I have small goals, and I just want Mr. Lynch to give me a raise. These million bucks is too much for a servant like me. I feel guilty receiving it.”Joshua stood up and gracefully walked toward her. “Is that so?”“Of course.”He reached out and lifted Luna’s chin with two fingers, forcing her to look into his deep, endless eyes. “You’re refusing this money not because you feel guilty, but because you’re unwilling to leave me, rig

“Now is not the time yet.”Joshua sighed lightly. “Nellie won’t be able to leave her yet. The replacement of servants has to be done slowly.”Lucas looked at Joshua and furrowed his brows tightly. He doubted that Nellie was the only one who was unable to leave Luna. Joshua was the same, too.After Luna Gibson left, Joshua never had a woman by his side for almost six years. If she was not alive, Lucas felt that Luna the servant was a great choice. Nellie liked her, at least, and Joshua did not hate her either.However…Lucas took a deep breath. In the end, he could not help but remind Joshua, “Sir, don’t forget that you still have to get the missus back.”Joshua lifted his head and looked at him with an ambiguous smile. “Are you trying to teach me what to do?”Joshua’s gaze was so cold that Lucas instantly shuddered. “I just remembered. I should get off work.” At that, Lucas immediately opened the door and escaped for his life. The door of the study room was shut once again.

“Okay, I’ll treat you as such. You could think of using a million dollars to get Luna to leave me just from what Aura said, but...“You’d do well to listen, Granny Lynch. Even if there is no Luna, even if she took the million dollars and went away, I’d still call off the marriage with Aura. This won’t affect my decision, so save the money. It’s pointless.”Joshua then stood up to leave.“Joshua Lynch!” The infuriated Granny Lynch took the teacup on the coffee table and threw it at Joshua.Smash!The teacup landed next to Joshua’s feet. It shattered as the tea splashed onto his pants.Joshua stopped in his tracks, but he did not turn back.Granny Lynch gritted her teeth. “What on earth are you trying to do? Back then, you insisted on marrying Luna Gibson into the Lynch family against all of our objections. She married into the family for a few years, yet she didn’t even bear you any children before she died in an accident.“After her death, you rejected all the women that the fa

“Granny, you’re the best!”Aura excitedly passed the box to Granny Lynch. “Have a look, Granny. This is one of Mr. Y’s designs. It’s the same series as the necklace on your neck. Isn’t it beautiful?”“It is beautiful.” Granny Lynch loved the necklace. Inexplicably, Luna the maid’s words rang in her ears suddenly.‘But, the fake necklace on your neck is probably worth much less than a million, right?’Granny Lynch furrowed her brows and looked at Aura somewhat uncomfortably. “Aura, is your necklace…a fake?”Mr. Y was a jewelry designer who had made a name for himself abroad in the past two years. His fame was second only to the famous designer Moon. Mr. Y had left the jewelry industry so abruptly, however. His designs were obsolete, hence the prices of his jewelry have gone up from the initial million-dollar mark to more than 10 million dollars. Granny Lynch had seen the news, that was why she would give Luna a million dollars on Aura’s behalf.However, what Luna said the day be

However, at the thought that Granny Lynch was her last hope of remaining at Joshua’s side…Aura gritted her teeth and stomped her feet. “Help me find them.”“There’s no need to.” The woman on the other end of the phone call sighed. “Mr. Y didn’t have many designs to begin with, and we’ve bought all the fakes of the unowned sets, the rest being in the hands of others. I heard that the President of the Quinn Group, Malcolm Quinn has one set of jewelry. I’ll help you ask.”“Okay.”…Blue Bay Villa.It had rained the entire night before. It was rather cold in the morning, so Luna spent the entire morning organizing Nellie’s closet. She washed and kept the summer clothes in the closet.Although Nellie had only been with Joshua for a short while, in less than a month, the number of new clothes that she had was far more than what she had in a year previously.Luna was exhausted just by organizing Nellie’s clothes, so much so she could barely stand up straight.She thumped on her lowe
