Chapter 1795
Luna was instantly stunned. Dazed, she stared at Joshua, who stood before her. “You…” She never expected that Joshua was secretly investigating Colin’s death. “Yes.” Upon hearing what Joshua said, Adrian sighed and said, “When Colin died after the accident, everyone blamed Mother. She blamed herself, too. She shouldn’t have gotten someone to mess with Colin’s car. “But the truth is, Mother was just angry at Colin for Lucy’s death. She only wanted to teach him a lesson, but she never thought of killing him. Then, Adrian looked at Granny Lynch’s tombstone with a rare solemn expression. He said, “According to her character, if she wanted to kill someone on Lucy’s behalf, she would’ve killed Charles Landry, not his kind younger brother Colin.” Luna bit her lip. Yes, it made sense. Although Luna had many unhappy conflicts with Granny Lynch, she still understood Granny Lynch’s character very well.
If Granny Lynch wanted to kill someone to seek revenge, she would have killed Charles instead and not Colin, who went to the Lynchs to apologize on Charles’ behalf. It was only at that time, whether it was the Landrys or the Lynchs, they only found out about Granny Lynch who tinkered with Colin’s brakes, yet they could not find the driver who killed him. Charles and Rosalyn agreed that the driver must have also been hired by Granny Lynch, which was why they completely blamed her for Colin’s death. However, after so many years, no one found the driver. She never thought that Heather’s death would reopen the case of Colin’s death 20 years ago. She also never would have thought that the only witness of Colin’s accident 20 years ago was Adrian. Remaining in the same spot, Luna only felt blood continuously rushing to her head. She looked at Adrian before glancing at Joshua. “This Todd…” Joshua narrowed his eyes. “He’s in Merchant City right now. Luke’s men are searching for him.” Looking at Joshua’s cold and angular face, Luna sniffled before looking at him solemnly and said, “Thank you.” She never expected that Joshua would help investigate her uncle’s death. Joshua smiled flatly. He turned to glance at Granny Lynch’s black and white photo. “I did it for Granny.”
The thing that Granny Lynch regretted the most in her life was accidentally killing the kind-hearted Colin. Since Todd had appeared, Joshua could finally solve the case from back then. He believed that Todd was not hired by Granny Lynch. After all, if Todd was one of Granny Lynch’s men, he would not dare to join the gang i In Merchant City, the place where the Landrys live, after killing one of their family members. Thus, he was either hired by Charles, killing Colin to deepen the feud between the Landrys and the Lynchs, or by the Quinn family. The Quinns wanted to benefit from the conflict between the Lynchs and the Landrys’. Luna’s heart sank a little upon hearing what Joshua said. She looked at Granny Lynch’s tombstone once more before taking a step back and bowing at the tombstone. Finally, she looked at Joshua once more and said, “If there is news about Todd, please let me know.” Then, Luna turned and left. Even if her father had gone mental and her mother in a vegetative stage, if they knew that they finally found Colin’s murderer, they would be happy. Standing in the same spot, Adrian looked at Luna leaving. He furrowed his brows a little and said, “Even if you found out that mother didn’t kill her uncle, what use is there? Lucy was tortured and beaten to death. The Landrys can’t run from this.”
