Neil glanced at Joshua with a puzzled look. “I thought you told us not to contact her.“
Joshua sneered. “Since when do you even listen to me? Do you think I never noticed the new signal- jamming device you placed in the house?“
Neil immediately lowered his head in shame. When Luna got released from jail, Joshua had ordered them not to contact her and even warned them that he would be able to track their cellular signals to detect if they talked to her behind his back.
Neil had no choice but to ask Nigel for help and installed a signal jammer within the house.
Whenever the device was switched on, the signal they used to contact their mother could not be detected.
However, Neil never expected that Joshua would discover the device.
“Okay, so… Shall I call her?“ said Neil meekly, somewhat ashamed that his plan had been exposed. He turned around and tried to slip out of the room.
“Stop.“ Joshua stopped him sternly before he could leave. “You can call her right here.“
Neil pulled a face and retreated to the couch. He dialed Luna’s number and waited for the call to be picked up.
Joshua sat on a chair across from him. “Put her on speakers,“ he ordered.
Neil jolted in shock. “I don’t think that’s…“
“Why? What’s wrong with that? “ Joshua raised his eyebrows skeptically. “Don’t you want to prove to me that your ‘mother’ Luna isn’t a promiscuous woman who goes home with every man she meets?“
Neil rolled his eyes at him; he had no choice but to do as Joshua instructed. Luna picked up the phone almost immediately.
“Hello? “ Her voice rang out from the other end of the line. She sounded like she was in a good mood. “ Neil, why are you calling at this time? Has Joshua gone to bed already?“
