Sean was a little puzzled by Luna's question.
He lifted his head to stare blankly at Luna.
"Yes...that was what happened."
He remembered the look of disbelief on Bonnie's face when she laid eyes on the photos of Lucy, and
she bombarded Nikki with questions about their mother afterward.
Sean froze at the thought of this.
Bonnie's reaction...
Had she already suspected that he and Jim were brothers at that time? If she had, why had she not
brought this up to him before? Not only did Bonnie keep this secret to herself, but it seemed she did not
share her suspicions with Jim either.
Sean furrowed his brows and instinctively glanced in Luna's direction.
Luna's eyes were etched with the same puzzled expression as his.
"Mr.Lynch."
All of a sudden, Samuel curled his lips into a smile as he watched Joshua going through the documents
from the box.
"If you're interested in reading them, you may bring these documents home with you."
After all, these belong to Lucy, and in a way, they should return to your family.
"However, I hope you'll stick to your word and show mercy toward my mother.She was poisoned by
Sirius and thus doesn't have much time left.You can consider this as God's way of punishing her for her
wrongful acts in the past."
Joshua could not help chuckling when he heard this.
"Don't worry.I'm aman of my word.That being said..."
He lifted his head to meet Samuel's gaze.
"I'm willing to show Granny Quinn mercy, but the Quinn family had built its foundation on the Lynch and
Landry families' tragedic deaths..."
"Don't worry,"
Samuel interrupted him before he could finish his sentence.
"I'll make sure to take care o f this.In seven days, I'll give you what you want."
Joshua nodded in reply, and, after giving Lucas instructions to tidy up Lucy's documents, he walked
over to Luna's side and grabbed her hand.
"Let's go."
Everything that happened that day was almost too much for Luna to digest.She bit her lip and was
about to say something when all of a sudden, Riley burst into tears again.
Luna swallowed the words she had wanted to say quickly followed Joshua out the door, clutching Riley
in her arms.
"Sean."
When the two of them reached the door, Joshua suddenly paused in his steps and turned to glance at
Sean, who was standing next to Samuel in shock.
"Come home with us.I still have many questions about my Aunt Lucy that I'd like you to answer."
Sean froze for a moment, then turned around and gave Samuel a bow before following after Joshua.
All of Joshua's men followed suit, and Luke did the same.
Within a few minutes, Quinn Mansion had fallen silent once more.
Despite being the peak of summer, Malcolm could not help feeling a chill pass through his body.
He turned t o glance at his father and furrowed his brows.
"I can't believe you concealed the truth about Lucy's fate for so long."
Even he did not know that his father held such an enormous secret close to him! If he had known that
Lucy had survived, he would have used this to his advantage and manipulated everyone so that the
Quinn family would prevail! Instead, Samuel had used this secret to ensure a frail old lady's peaceful
death.
Granny Quinn would die sooner or later, so even if Joshua wanted to take revenge on her, she would
only suffer for a few days at most.
Malcolm could not believe how gullible his father had been! "Malcolm."
Samuel curled his lips into a smile, stood up, and shook his head as though he could sense his son's
thoughts.
"I want you to join me in devoting your loyalty to the church."
Malcolm widened his eyes in shock.
"Are you insane?"
