Chapter 1794

A moment later, Joshua let Luna go with a darkened expression. He said that he owed her only because
he was angry at her previously for attending Mr. Hanson’s banquet on her own, then came up with the
excuse that she has had sex to make a deal with him. He kept mentioning it because he wanted to
remind her to not use her body as a bargaining chip. He never expected that Luna would use this to
provoke him, right when he hugged her, when he could not hold back his feelings for her. Joshua looked
at Luna’s face and smiled coldly. “So, you’re admitting that you’re using your body as a transaction?”
Then, he sneered. “Since it’s a transaction, I’ll decide the time and place.” Joshua closed in on Luna’s
ears, speaking with a low voice laced with mockery,” Tonight, at ten. Orchard Manor. I’ll see you there.”
Luna paled at Joshua’s words in an instant. She only said what she said because she wanted to pull him
out of his moody emotions, yet he truly thought that she was using her body as a transaction with him.
He even set a time and date. Just when the atmosphere between them was so overwhelming and
suffocating, Adrian returned running from outside, panting. He patted his chest while lowering his gaze
and looking at the time. “Fifteen minutes, just in time. Joshua, I’m back.” Adrian’s voice wiped out the
depressing atmosphere between Luna and Joshua. Luna turned around and wanted to leave, but Joshua
pulled her back. “Don’t go. There are things to talk about.”

Then, Joshua fished a photo out from his pocket and showed it to Adrian, “Do you know this man?” The
photo was of a bald, bearded man, and the gesture confused Adrian Why was Joshua asking him this?
He hesitated for a very long time before shaking his head. “No.” Joshua smiled and took out another
photo. The man in the photo was the same as the previous one, but without the beard and with hair.
Adrian finally widened his eyes. “I’ve seen him before!” 20 years ago, the night of Colin’s accident,
Adrian was driving home while he met face-to-face with the driver. At that time, Adrian was still curious
why his truck reeked of blood. He did not know that the man was the perpetrator that killed Colin. It was
only when he got home did he hear about how Colin met in an accident after the negotiation with Granny
Lynch when he left the Lynchs’ place. Adrian even wanted to help the police, but the situation that night



was too chaotic. H e could not remember the car number plate nor the specific facial features of the
person, so he could only give up. However, at that moment, when Adrian saw the photo once again, his
memories were instantly awoken.

“This was the man who killed Colin in the car crash!” When Luna heard Adrian mention Colin’s name,
she instantly felt her blood freeze. She looked at Joshua in a daze before looking at Adrian. “What do
you mean…?” Joshua passed the two photos to Luna. “This photo is what Todd looks like now, and the
other was him twenty years ago. We’ve managed to find out that Todd was the one who killed Heather.”
Joshua looked at Luna deeply. “It was he who killed Colin twenty years ago, too.” Luna bit her lip at this,
and her hands that held the photo trembled a little. “So…” Joshua calmly interrupted her, “So as long as
we find Todd, we’ll be able to know who ordered your uncle’s murder.”
