Lucas' jaw dropped in shock.It turned out that…the fingerprint left on the murder weapon was not that of a right index finger.This was just a piece of false information leaked out by Joshua and the police to lure the murderer.The murderer would surely try to destroy any evidence pointing toward them as soon as they found out about the fingerprint.Therefore, anyone who was desperate to get rid of the finger that had allegedly left behind a fingerprint at the scene of the crime would be the murderer!As soon as he thought of this, Lucas could not help admiring Joshua's intelligence. He raised his thumbs at Joshua and said, "What a great plan, Sir!"Joshua shot him an impassive glance but did not reply.Lucas meekly pulled his hand back and continued, "Well, Sir, since we already know that Hunter Quinn was the one who had killed Cheryl…would the police take any action?"Will Ma'am be able to get released from jail after the police arrest Hunter?"Joshua narrowed his eyes and
Visitors were not allowed at night, but the woman emanated such a terrifyingly sinister aura that the police on duty made an exception for her and let her in.Luna was awoken from her sleep.She could not stop asking the prison guard who the visitor was as she followed her out of the cell.However, the prison guard could not offer her any information apart from the visitor's gender. The visitor was a woman.Luna furrowed her brows, thinking it was Gwen.To her surprise, it was a strange woman dressed entirely in black and wearing a pair of sunglasses.Luna entered the visitation room, frowning, and sat down across from the woman. "You are…""Let me introduce myself." The woman lifted her head to smile at Luna. "My name is Charlotte Jacobs, I'm about the same age as you, and I was your brother Jim's first girlfriend."Luna widened her eyes in shock.Jim's…first girlfriend?How did she not know that Jim had ever had a girlfriend before?Ever since she returned to the Landry fa
The entire room fell silent.Luna stared at the woman before her, whom half of her face had been destroyed. "What are your conditions?"All she wanted was to get out of jail.However, Luna knew fully well that she would never be released unless Joshua changed his mind.Even though she was in jail, she was still protected by the four female bodyguards whom he had sent in, and she could not have her freedom from him, even in prison.If Charlotte's condition was not too outrageous, what was the harm of agreeing to it?"My condition is that after you're released from jail and take over Landry Group as CEO, you have to hire me as your secretary or assistant. As for everything you do, including strategies of running the company, you'll have to listen to what I say."Luna furrowed her brows and stared at Charlotte with a puzzled look. She had thought that…Charlotte would want her to help bring her and Jim together again.However, it turned out her only request was this.Charlotte smi
Maybe, as Bonnie's friend, Luna should not have let Charlotte stay at all, but…There were just some things that could not be avoided at all.She did not want Bonnie to avoid her problems just as she had done in the past, which ended up forcing both her relationships and marriage into deep trouble.Because of Charlotte's sudden visit, Luna could not fall asleep at all and instead tossed and turned the entire night.Luna only managed to take a short nap as dawn neared.She was woken by the prison guard at 6 a.m. and sent to freshen up, eat breakfast, and let out into the exercise yard.After running in circles on the field for a while, the prison guard stopped her, claiming that another woman had come to visit her.Luna was sure it would be Gwen this time, but to her surprise, it was the last person she wanted to see.Heather."What are you doing here?" Luna narrowed her eyes, staring at the woman who was only a table apart from her, and said, sneering, "Are you here to jeer at
Luna immediately frowned when she heard this. She stared at Heather and asked in a hoarse voice, "What do you mean? Are you saying that the person who dug my child's grave…was Joshua?""Of course." Heather crossed her arms in front of her chest and gazed at Luna impassively. "Otherwise, who else would be interested in your dead child?"Luna bit her lip and suddenly recalled the scene where she had been desperately digging in the dirt, trying to find her child's corpse that night.At that time, Joshua did not seem as frantic as she did and had even calmly ordered Lucas to find a shovel for him.At that time, Luna did not overthink this at all, but at this point, his behavior seemed…Seeing that Luna had lapsed into silence, Heather knew she had fallen for her trick.She curled her lips into a smirk, took out her phone, and found the security footage of Joshua heading to the DNA Diagnostic Center.She had ordered someone to change the date displayed on the footage, of course, so i
Was Joshua starting to treat her as his foe?Seeing that Luna was about to break down, Heather let out a sigh and decided to tell her an even more shocking piece of news. "Still, you can't blame Joshua for not trusting you, Luna."She took out a lab report from her pocket and placed it on the table between them. "Look, the child that you and Joshua had buried doesn't belong to him, after all."Luna's entire body stiffened.She picked up the lab report with shaking hands.It was clearly written that the two DNA samples showed no blood relation to each other at all.Luna's hands started to shake even harder.She recalled the servant named Vivian that had died.When Vivian died, she had told her that the child had been switched out. However, she was shot to death before she could tell her who did this and where Luna's child really was.Luna bit her lip as her emotions battled among one another.On the one hand, she was delighted to think that there was a possibility that her chi
The entire room fell silent.Heather stared at Luna with a calm expression, but in truth, her heart was thumping in her chest.What was going on with this woman? When did she become so clever?Seeing that Heather did not reply, Luna curled her lips into a smirk. "Why aren't you saying anything? Am I right? Were you and Malcolm…the ones who had switched out my and Joshua's baby?""No, no, no, how can that be…" Heather quickly denied it and added, letting out a self-deprecating laugh, "How could we possibly have been capable of doing that?"Don't forget that I had gone into labor at the same time you did, and both Malcolm and Father were at the hospital with me, either in the hallway waiting or in the operation room with me."How could we have switched out your child while I was in labor?"Luna furrowed her brows when she heard this.Heather was right; both of them had gone into labor at the same time.On top of that, Luna herself had gone into labor only a few hours after heari
Heather snickered. "Do you think that after I'm temporarily kicked out of the Landry family, you'll be able to make Jim take you back by sucking up to the new heiress of the Landry family?"Charlotte, you should go look at yourself in the mirror. Anyone who looks at you will be terrified at a single glance, so how dare you even think Jim would still like you?"Oh, by the way—" Heather suddenly inched closer to Charlotte's ear, grinning as though she had suddenly recalled something. "You probably don't know this, but Jim has a new girlfriend now, and she even bore him a daughter not too long ago."Heather continued in a low voice filled with contempt as she stared at Charlotte's face, "Jim's current girlfriend is Luna's best friend, and Luna was the one who had introduced them."A glimmer of malice shot through Charlotte's eyes when she heard this.Heather patted her shoulder with a small smile and said, "If I were you, I wouldn't have returned to embarrass myself. You claim to lov
