Old Mr. Walter’s face instantly turned terribly pale. Alice’s expressions did not look too good either.
After a while, Old Mr. Walter wiped away his tears. “ Joshua, what do you mean by that? Do you think I would hurt my own daughter?“
Joshua’s gaze was flat. “I said nothing of those sorts. I only want to know, since before Hailey jumped, you saw her and talked to her. As her father, did you notice her mood swings? Or perhaps you didn’t even notice her emotions?“
Old Mr. Walter’s expressions turned uglier upon Joshua’s words.
“W-What… what are you trying to say?“
“What I mean is,“ Joshua smiled and said, “Hailey’s mental health is too weak. Perhaps you did not pay attention to her mental well-being. The last person Hailey saw before she jumped was you, Uncle Dennis. That meant that you were the only possible person to stop her from jumping. You can’t blame anyone else.“
Joshua smiled aloofly. “That’s all I want to say. We are here to pay our respects. Not argue with each other.“
Then, under the stunned gaze of everybody, Joshua turned around and pulled Luna away.
Watching the both of them leaving, Old Mr. Walter gritted his teeth hard.
No wonder Alice treated Luna as her main rival. Joshua’s favoritism toward her was too obvious.
At that thought, he turned to look at Alice, who was nearby.
Alice inconspicuously shook her head at him. Then, she smiled and approached him.
“Uncle Dennis, don’t be angry at Joshua. He is just trying to protect his staff.“
Joshua dragged Luna out of the memorial service and directly into the car.
In the backseat, Joshua closed the car door and furrowed his brows tightly.
“I ‘m sorry. “ Luna moved her body toward the car door a little. “I was just quite shocked that a person suddenly died, so I followed you to pay my respects. I never would have thought…“
