Did Luna cancel her engagement with Malcolm?
Joshua furrowed his brows and stared intently at Lucas. "What happened?"
"I'm not sure about the details, but it seems like... Master Quinn had slept with Heather Landry, and Ma'am was upset about this, so she decided to call off the wedding.
"However, Malcolm and Heather have gotten engaged now, so the Quinn and Landry families are still going t o become in-laws."
Joshua narrowed his eyes. "When did this happen?"
"This morning!"
This morning?
Joshua's entire body stiffened.
Was this why Luna had not come to send the children off? Was it because she had been busy dealing with this?
Joshua fell silent for a moment, then ordered, "Driver, step on the gas and chase after Jim Landry's car!"
The car quickly started.
When the car zoomed out of the parking lot, Jim's car was still not too far away.
The driver stepped on the accelerator to chase after them.
All of a sudden, Joshua's phone rang. It was from Bonnie.
"Don't bother chasing after us." She sniffed, then glanced at Luna, who was sitting next to her in silence, her eyes red-rimmed with tears. "Luna will not see you. The reason she called off the engagement was that she was disappointed in Malcolm and has nothing to do with you, so please don't think otherwise.
"Even though she called off the wedding, she is still a member of the Landry family.
"The Lynch family murdered her uncle in the past and almost forced the Landry family into bankruptcy numerous times, so you and she will never be able to reconcile again.
He had so much he wanted to say, but none of them gave him a chance.
At this moment, they passed through an intersection, and Jim's car zoomed past the green light, whereas Joshua's car was forced to stop at a red light.
The driver was so frustrated that he banged his fist against the steering wheel. "I was so close, so close! It's all my fault!"
With that, he turned to glance at Joshua. "I'm sorry, M r. Lynch, but I promise that I'll be able to catch up to them..."
"There's no need anymore." A hint of sorrow flashed through Joshua's eyes as he lifted his head to gaze at the disappearing car. "Let's go back to Swan Lake Chalet."
Lucas paused for a moment, then turned to stare at Joshua. "Sir...are you sure you don't want to go after them?" "Yes." Joshua closed his eyes and rubbed his brows in frustration, a bitter smile playing on his lips. "She's already made it clear that she didn't call off the wedding because of me, so what use will it be if I go after her? It'll only humiliate me."
With that, he sighed and asked, "Luke, shall we have a drink tonight?"
Luke, who was sitting in the passenger seat, snickered. "Sure, but I'm just worried you won't be able to take it."
