Joshua narrowed his eyes and shot Luna a cold glance. “Don’t be so rude.“
He lifted his head and picked up the microphone. “ Everyone, I’m so sorry that you had to see this.
However, the Lynch family has its own rules and its own ways of dealing with problems like this.“
He continued, “We’re all gathered here to celebrate Granny Lynch’s birthday. Everyone here is a friend or relative of the Lynch family, so I’m sure you’re all familiar with how we do things around here. If a single word of this gets out…“
Joshua’s gaze turned hostile. “I’m sure you know what will happen.“
The crowd grew silent immediately. Everyone glanced at each other, not knowing what to do.
It was obvious what Joshua was trying to convey: not only did he refuse to call the cops, but he did not want to punish Aura either. Instead, he wanted to keep everything on the down-low.
Everyone in the room was puzzled. Joshua insisted that there was nothing going on between him and Aura, yet at the same time, he was willing to show her mercy, despite the fact that she had tried to kill his own daughter. What was going on between the two of them?
Luna stood motionless. Her heart felt as if someone had run a knife across it, and it was now bleeding.
She lifted her head and fixated her wrathful glare on Joshua. ”Mr. Lynch ! Nellie is your daughter ! ”
”Yes, I am well aware of that.” He glanced at her dismissively and picked up the microphone again. ” We’ re all gathered here today to celebrate Granny Lynch’s birthday. It was meant to be a joyous occasion, but unforeseen circumstances have ruined this party. I apologize for that. In order to show my sincerity, I will have my assistant prepare gifts for everyone.”
Joshua glanced at the emcee. ”Please keep the party going, but unfortunately, I’ll be leaving now.”

Luna is sooo stupid!...
This story line is sickening… her children, Nellie in particular, do not like Malcolm. She is already married to Joshua, the father of her children who loves her more than Malcolm ever could. Just disgusting....
Another “misunderstanding”…… poor Luna, why can’t she just say the Quinns kidnapped me instead of assuming Joshua is doing the wrong thing. Terrible....
I sure hope Aura gets arrested and pays for her many crimes soon, along with Adrian and Michael. Joshua and Luna need peace with their children....
Joshua is stupid, he says he loves Luna but refuses to tell her the truth thinking he can never recover from all the deceit, if he told the truth he could redeem himself and live a happy life with his family rather than continue to protect a bunch of evil criminals. Terrible decisions by a man who is smart enough to run a multi faceted company....
Omg this author is twisted!! When does Luna catch a break! This is awful. Aurasnd Fiona are evil, evil women and are using the children to commit their crimes 🤬...
And now the author has made it sound like he cares more for Fiona who he has only known a couple of weeks than Luna, his wife, the love of his life. Stupid and pathetically disgusting....
Wow, making Joshua out to be so stupid, ugh. Yes he told this horrible bitch he would accompany her until she died, but she lied about her fake illness so I guess he’ll have to live with her forever! He also promised to love, honor and cherish his wife Luna however seems to forget that with each passing malicious mistress, Aura, Alice and now Fiona. Awful. Let’s get past this into some storyline that involves some happiness for Luna… the only woman who truly cares for and loves him. Get rid of Fiona, soon....
So disgusted with this Fiona storyline, hope it doesn’t last much longer. Joshua told her when they made the deal he had someone in his heart and would not sleep with her. They could be faking a relationship and he doesn’t have to be so nasty to Luna and the kids. It’s heartbreaking and giving him another ridiculous relationship is unnecessary. Just makes more misunderstandings for Luna and harder for her to forgive him....
Joshua is in the wrong, even if Fiona asked him to keep their fake relationship a secret he should have told Luna what was going on. After all, supposedly he lives Luna and the children and is doing this for them. Being deceiving is not working for him....
