Chapter 1713

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 a t 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 instead of
displaying its proper time, the footage showed the date of the morning after Luna and Joshua had buried
their child.

The video showed Joshua entering the DNA Diagnostic Center to run a test.



Heather curled her lips into a smirk and said, ”What do you think Joshua had gone to the DNA
Diagnostic Center himself for?”

Luna bit her lip as she stared intently at the image of Joshua on the screen.



She watched him get out of his car at the entrance, enter the building, and sit down on the sofa in the
lobby, waiting impatiently.

Her heart grew colder and colder as she watched.

Meanwhile, Heather was still going on, ”Luna, you’ve always thought that the love between you and
Joshua is indestructible and that the only reason you two can’t be together is because of the vengeance
between the Landry and Lynch families, but the reality is…

”Are you really that important to him?

”He doesn’t believe that your child truly belongs to him and doesn’t believe that you’ll never kill anyone.

”Not only that, but he’s willing to keep you imprisoned just to prevent you from taking over as CEO of
Landry family.

”Maybe the dead secretary was killed by his men, after all. If his grandmother was so cruel as to kill
Uncle Colin, who had gone to beg for her forgiveness, what makes you think Joshua Lynch can’t frame
you for killing his secretary just to gain control over you?”

With that, Heather let out a sigh and added, ”I heard that before the secretary died, she even choked
you, demanding to know why you killed her.

”Don’t you think this is strange? If the murderer hadn’t told her that you were the one who sent them to
kill her…why would she even say something like that as her last words?”

The more she talked, the more energized Heather got. ”Luna, maybe you and Joshua had indeed been
in love in the past, but from the moment he made up his mind to defeat the Landry family to avenge his
grandmother’s death and your return to our family, a wedge has already formed between the two of you.”

Luna clenched her fists next to her as she listened to Heather’s words.



Her brain was telling her not to believe anything Heather said.

She was not a good person! How could she be so kind as to tell her the truth all of a sudden?

At the same time, Luna could not stop herself from doubting Joshua.

She did not understand why Joshua would dig up the child’s corpse just to perform a DNA test on her
after she was buried.

Not only that, but Luna also did not understand why even after discovering the true culprit, Joshua would
allow the real murderer to get away with their crimes and let her take the fall for it, even though he had
claimed over and over again that he loved her!

She did not understand any of this.

Did loving someone mean that he could control her and treat her as a puppet that obeyed every single
one of his commands?

Was this what Joshua thought love was?

Could it be that…Heather was right?

Had the hatred Joshua bore toward the Landry family surpassed his love toward her?
