"What nonsense! The autopsy report isn’t even done yet. Even if the results are out and there really isn't any evidence, his mother just passed less than two days ago, but he’s already celebrating, just because he received Lynch Group's shares. What a heartless person!"
Joshua sneered when he saw how outraged Bonnie was. "This is a man who instructed his son to kill his own mother... Do you think this kind of person has a heart at all?"
Luna, Bonnie, and Lucas widened their eyes in shock a s soon as they heard this.
"Joshua...” Luna pursed her lips and stared at Joshua." Have...you decided?"
When they were in the police station, Luna had already heard Joshua wanting the coroner to compare Michael's DNA with the blood on the bandage. She thought he was just suspicious, but with Joshua voicing it out loud...
"Yes, it's mostly decided." Joshua closed his eyes and let out a bitter smile. "The material from the special bandage is rarely used among the common population."
With that, he opened his eyes and commanded in a cold voice, "Lucas, just to be safe, track down the
whereabouts of the special bandage that I asked you t o buy from abroad."
"Sure."
"Also, obtain the security footage in the hospital and find out where Michael was during the time of the incident."
"Sure,” answered Lucas with great confidence to Joshua's request. Then, he turned and was about to leave when Joshua stopped him again. "Also, help me find out who Adrian and Michael have been hanging out with recently and where they usually meet."
He had a feeling that according to Adrian and Michael's intelligence, they would not have been able t o plot such an intricate murder on their own, especially Michael.
When Aura had instructed him to cut the brake cables in the past, he had not even thought of wiping away his fingerprints.
This time, the murder was so intricately planned that i f they had not performed the autopsy on Granny Lynch, they would not have been able to find any evidence. There must have been someone else working in the back that plotted this whole thing.
"I'm sorry you had to go through that." Joshua sighed and pulled Luna into his arms.
Luna shook her head. "It isn’t any trouble. I'm here now, aren’t I?"
Even though her time in jail had indeed been a terrible experience, it was still manageable compared t o Joshua, who had to deal with everyone’s doubts against his action.
Joshua nodded and hugged her even more tightly. "I have a question: You’re a murder suspect. Even with the amount of money Bonnie has, it's still impossible for her to bail you out of prison just like that. How did
you get out?"
Luna blushed but did not say anything in response.
Joshua could feel her face getting warm, and he slowly curled his lips into a smile. "One thing I do know is...a pregnant woman can be released on bail."
