Chapter 431

Luna and Alice raised their heads simultaneously.

The person who was holding Alice’s hand wasn’t anyone else but Joshua who had left not too long ago.

Seeing him here, Alice immediately retracted her hand and dove into his arms, sobbing like a baby, “
Joshua, I knew Luna was in a bad mood, so I tried comforting her. But, who knew she would slap me
instead! “

As she spoke, she pointed to her red and puffy face. “ See! I was furious, so I slapped her too, but she
still wanted to slap me so I…“

Joshua held onto her gingerly, raised his eyes and looked at the palm print on Luna’s face. “I know you’re
in a bad mood, but still you can’t go around hurting people.“

Luna raised her eyes and looked at him coldly without speaking.

Joshua sucked in a deep breath, saying coolly, “I went to the police station just now and took care of
everything. The one who kidnapped Gwen is Liam Clark’s subordinate. The Old Mr. Walter is the
mastermind, the police have already summoned him for questioning.“

Hearing the man’s words, Alice, who was snuggled in his arms, stiffened immediately.

She hurriedly disentangled herself from his arms. “ Old Mr. Walter… has been captured by the police?“

Joshua hummed in reply, “When I left, he was in the police station recording his statement. He fully
admitted to kidnapping Gwen.“

The man lifted his eyes and glanced in the direction of Gwen’s hospital ward. “Even though it was bad
that he ordered Liam to kidnap Luna, in the end, Luna wasn’t hurt so I didn’t report this to the police.



“Firstly, Old Mr. Walter is an old friend of my father’s. Secondly, once Liam Clark is out of the picture, the
Walter family will soon fall. That’s enough punishment for him.“

With that, Joshua could not help but sigh, “But now, he’s crossed the line. Gwen Larson is Andy Larson’s
only daughter and Andy has been working for the Walter family all these years. But because Gwen
spoke out for Luna, Old Mr. Water can ignore Andy’s staunch loyalty all these years and order his men to
do this to her…“

He lowered his eyes and shook his head. “Maybe Hailey’s death was too big of a blow to him? In his
current mental state, perhaps making him confess and be punished by the law is a way of protecting him.
Otherwise, who can guarantee that he won’t do such appalling things again in the future.“

Alice gritted her teeth harshly.

Last night when after Old Mr. Walter’s plan to harm Luna failed, Alice called him secretly, asking him not
to act rashly.

Even if the Walter family fell, they still had her. In the future, once she and Joshua were back to

being a loving couple, she would somehow find a way to stealthily help the Water family rise to power
again.

She remembered he promised he would do so.

And now, just one day later, why would he start taking action against Gwen?

Anyone with brains would know now wasn’t the time to stand out and cause trouble again, especially
since the enemy had found out about weakness last night.

Why would Old Mr. Walter do this at such a crucial time like this?



Luna lowered her head. “I still don’t understand… Why would Old Mr. Walter…“

“Because he wanted to kill her and silence her forever.“

Before Luna could finish her sentence, Luna was coldly interrupted.

The person who spoke was Luke Jones, who was currently standing at the entrance to Gwen’s hospital
ward. The man swept his gaze across at Luna faintly. “I know Liam and his men too well. If their aim is
revenge or they just wanted to destroy someone, they would employ more cruel methods that will keep
her alive and yet make her wish for death. But they were determined to kill her. If my men didn’t get there
in time, she would be dead by the time they finished what they had planned.“
