Nathan frowned. “Since Luna is your employee, shouldn’t you reprimand her for being promiscuous and having a complicated personal life?“
Joshua chuckled. “It’s not like she’s my wife, so why should I care about all this?“
Everybody froze as soon as they heard that, even Luna. Her expression darkened. It turned out…
Joshua still thought she was promiscuous and impure.
The reason he had defended her in front of the Allens was not that he trusted her, but because—
He did not care about her at all.
Luna gripped the hem of her shirt tightly.
She had always known that Joshua did not care about her. Even if he did, it was just temporary because he wanted to have fun with her.
However, Luna still could not help but feel a twinge of pain in her heart when she heard what Joshua had said. She felt as though someone had pricked her with a needle, and her heart oozed blood.
Meanwhile, Nathan was so shocked by this sudden turn of events that he did not know what to say.
Joshua turned around and glanced at Nathan and Celeste. “If I remember correctly, you two have decided not to take Luna in as your future daughter-in-law, right?“
Celeste snorted in indignation. “Of course. We won’t allow our son to marry a s1*t like her! “
“You…“ Celeste was seething with rage when she saw Luna disappear into Lynch Group Tower.
However, she did not want to offend Joshua further, so she had no choice but to swallow her rage and keep quiet.
“Lucas.“ As soon as Luna entered the building, Joshua gave a stretch and ordered, “Get Zach and Yuri to guard the front doors and tighten up security all around the building. Don’t let any troublemakers into Lynch Group Tower.“
“Yes, Sir! “
The color drained from Celeste’s face as soon as she heard that. Nathan, too, was so angry that he balled up his fists.
“Joshua Lynch! “ He snarled through gritted teeth and glared at Joshua’s retreating figure. “How dare you treat us like this? Did you forget that you were supposed to collaborate with us? We’re the only people who can supply you with the precious ores you want! Aren’t you afraid that we’d forfeit the contract and refuse to do business with you anymore?“
