Luna’s heart leaped into her throat.
She bit her lip and stared nervously at Rosalyn’s pale face. “But… But, what?”
Luna’s face was etched with despair, worried that Rosalyn would reveal some truth about Joshua’s
involvement in her demise.
Rosalyn could tell exactly what Luna was thinking. She let out a sigh and reached out to hold Luna’s
hand gently. “Don’t be nervous; what I was trying to say is that…”
She sighed. “Even though Joshua has never done anything to hurt me before, that doesn’t apply to me.”
She stared earnestly at Luna and said in a soft voice, “No matter how much we try to ignore the truth, the
reason Joshua’s grandmother passed away…was because of the drug I invented.”
Luna immediately relaxed when she heard this.
She fell silent for a moment before finally lifting her head to gaze at Rosalyn and asked the question that
had been stuck in her throat for a long time, “Mother…can you tell me…were you involved in Granny
Lynch’s death?”
Luna’s nails dug into her palms. “Were…you the one who poisoned Granny Lynch?”
The color drained from Rosalyn’s face.
Charles, who had remained silent up until this point, finally could not help saying, “Luna, how can you
doubt your mother like this?
“As her daughter, don’t you know what kind of person she truly is?
“Even though she does have the capability to invent the drug that killed Granny Lynch, she would’ve
done so a long time ago.
“Everyone knows that the drug that killed Granny Lynch was the same one your mother had formulated
to help me.
“Whoever did this had deliberately done so to frame us for killing Granny Lynch!”
Charles’ voice was dripping with rage as he said this.
He had had enough of everyone misunderstanding Rosalyn and thinking she was a murderer!
If Rosalyn had not held him back, he would have sued everyone who spread the rumors that ruined
Rosalyn’s reputation.
However, he never thought that his daughter would one day suspect her own mother of this!
Luna bit her lip when she heard this. She wanted to say something, but nothing came out.
Finally, she let out a sigh and lifted her head to glance at Rosalyn. “Well…if it wasn’t you, who else would
it be?”
“Only two people have ever had access to the drug warehouse.”
Rosalyn lifted her head to meet Luna’s gaze. “One of them is me, and the other is Mickey.”
Luna froze. “Are you saying…it was Mickey who did it?”
“I’m not sure.” Rosalyn curled her lips into a small smile. “However, Mickey has been loyal to me for
many years now, and I’m reluctant to believe he’d do something like this. Please give me some more
time to look into this.”
She gently clasped Luna’s hand. “Luna, what I want to know now is…when are you and Joshua
renewing your vows?”
Luna never thought that just a minute ago, they had been talking about Granny Lynch, and within
seconds, the topic would suddenly switch to that of her and Joshua.
