As soon as they heard this, both Joshua and Mr. Chase lifted their heads and shifted their gaze to Luna.
Mr. Chase clenched his teeth and glowered at her. " What kind of evidence do you have? Did you forget that you’re a mentally insane patient right now? None of the things you say can be taken as evidence!
"If anything you say can be taken as proof, then everything that my staff here at the hospital say can b e taken as evidence as well, but what makes you think anyone will help you? Who would stand on your side and say that you didn’t break your finger?” 1
Mr. Chase was highly confident about his power and influence in this hospital, so he did not think Luna would be able to prove him guilty at all.
Luna curled her lips into a slight smile, then strode over to Joshua’s side and glanced around the room. Then, finally, she caught sight of the speaker that the hospital staff usually used for alerting the patients of lunch and dinner.
She took out the recording device from her ear and connected it to the speaker on the table.
The recording of everything that happened on the day Luna’s finger was crushed rang through the room.
Everyone could hear the nurse's scolding, Luna's wails of agony, as well as the cold snicker coming from the
man who had crushed her finger. "Boss said, one at a time. The number of fingers she can preserve depends on how long Mr. Lynch wants her to stay here."
Joshua's entire body stiffened when he heard the cold, heartless conversation between the nurses.
It turned out that...Luna had been telling the truth all along. 1
Her finger had been smashed by a hammer.
Despite having gone through such tremendous pain, Luna did not say a word, and Joshua had no idea any o f this had been happening at all.
He even believed other people’s lies and thought she had lost her mind and broken her finger herself! 2
As soon as he heard Luna’s cries of agony through the speaker, Joshua could not stand it anymore and immediately stood up. He kicked Mr. Chase, who was still kneeling on the ground, forcefully and shot him a murderous glare. "Where is the man in the recording? Tell me where he is right now!”
