Chapter 2938
There was a faint glimmer in Celia’s eyes.
She lifted her head to stare at Luna rather dazedly, but her gaze seemed to speak a thousand words.
Luna knew that Celia was waiting for a confirmation, so she let out an exhale and turned to glance at Joshua.
Joshua smiled and shot her a look of affirmation.
Luna finally smiled, turned back to meet Celia’s gaze, and said softly, “Aunty Celia, if you step forward and expose Mr. Adrian for who he truly is, Joshua will treat you well in the future. Besides, you’re the mother of Joshua’s brother, and if you expose the truth, Joshua will take care of both you and Michael. He’ll never allow you two to fend for yourselves in this cruel world.”
This tugged at Celia’s heartstrings.
The truth was, she never cared about Adrian at all-all she cared about was Michael!
She almost fell right into Adrian’s trap!
Michael was her son, and she could see through every last thought in his head. The only reason Michael adored his father was that Adrian had always been generous to them, and if Adrian lost all his money and went broke, Michael would never want to be associated with him.
If she stepped forward and exposed Adrian’s true colors, in Joshua’s favor, Joshua would fulfill his promise and provide the life she wanted.
With Joshua’s help, she could start her own business, and start her new life afresh. This was a far better option than letting Michael go with Adrian and inherit his debt.
“Also…” Luna curled her lips into a smile as she sensed Celia’s thoughts, and whispered in her ear, “Think about this. Joshua is already powerful enough in Banyan City, yet the loan sharks are relentlessly demanding money from him even at such an event. Do you think that they won’t do the same, if not worse, to Michael in the future, once they find out about his association with Adrian? After all, loan sharks aren’t the people you want to mess with…”
Celia clenched her fists upon hearing this.
