Chapter 1845

After hanging up the phone, Roanne exhaled and lifted her head to glance at Theo, “I think you’re a good
person. You…”

She turned around and glanced at the black Masevati parked in the distance as though she wanted to
say something, but in the end, nothing came out,

Finally, Roanne curled her lips into a smile and glanced at Theo once more. “I’ll get in touch with you if I
can

“My sister is looking for me, so I’d better go now.”

With that, she strode back toward Landry Mansion, all while Theo remained motionless and watched her
leave

When Roanne finally disappeared from view, he furrowed his brows and returned to the car.

“No wonder you kept reminding me to bring my name card before we left.”

Theo never had the habit of bringing his name cards with him wherever he went. He thought that even
though some of his artwork had become famous, he was still an ordinary artist, and no one would want
to get to know him

Because of this, Theo rarely brought his name cards out with him, but that day, before they departed,
Joshua had reminded him to bring some along.

At that time, Theo did not understand what Joshua had been trying to do, but at this moment, he did.

Sitting in the passenger seat, Joshua curled his lips into a smirk as he stared at the back door to Landry
Mansion, where Roanne had disappeared into. “I asked Lucas to help me investigate this girl before,



“She has been interested in arts ever since she was young, but because of her poor upbringing, her
parents couldn’t afford to raise her at all, so they sent her to the orphanage.

The look in Joshua’s eyes seemed to penetrate the windshield before him, landing on a place far, far
away. “Therefore, I guessed that she’d probably admire an artist like Theo.”

In the backseat, Luna furrowed her brows in sudden realization. “So you asked Theo to bring us here to
use him as bait?”

Joshua nodded. “Theo’s personality is indeed attractive to many women, but especially so to someone
like Roanne.

“That’s why I specially told him to bring his name card along today.”

Theo could not help blushing when he heard this. He let out a slight cough and said, “I don’t think…I’m
that attractive at all.

“If I were really that charming, Luna would’ve chosen me a long, long time ago.”

The entire car fell silent as soon as he said this

Luna, who had initially been wanting to continue the conversation, immediately shut up upon hearing
this, unsure of what to say,

This sudden silence made Theo realize that he had accidentally said the wrong thing. He pursed his lips
and was about to change the topic when Joshua suddenly rubbed his chin and said with a smile. “Even
though you’re a charming man, you’re still no match for me.”

Theo rolled his eyes in exasperation,



However, no matter how unwilling he acted on the outside, the truth was that he admired Joshua very
much.

This man was able to find Roanne’s weakness and develop a plan to exploit it in such a short time.

However…

Theo let out a sigh and lifted his head to glance out the window. “No matter how well we planned it out. w
e still failed tonight.

“Roanne refused to work with us, refused to betray her sister.” Joshua smirked and lifted his head to
glance at Landry Mansion. “Who says we failed?

“Theo, you just wait patiently over the next few days. I’m sure Roanne will get in touch with you very
soon.” With that, he closed his eyes and leaned against the leather car seat. “Let’s go home now.”
