After an entire night of contemplation, Joshua finally decided to abide by the detectives' suggestions and agree to an autopsy.
He believed that if Granny was watching from heaven, she, too, would wish to see Luna being proven innocent.
After coming out of the house, Joshua followed Lucas and got into the car.
More than ten cars belonging to the media trailed behind Joshua's Masevati all the way from Blue Bay Villa to the police station.
Joshua's decision to authorize an autopsy on his grandmother's corpse spread through the city like wildfire and became the headline of almost every news outlet in Banyan City.
When the car arrived at the police station, Joshua was stopped by Adrian and Michael, who had been waiting at the entrance, as soon as he got out of the car.
Adrian, along with a swollen, injured Michael, blocked Joshua's path.
"As the victim's family and only son, I object to an autopsy!" Adrian declared, dressed in a neat suit. “ Joshua Lynch, don't you dare humiliate my mother’s corpse even after her death!"
Joshua narrowed his eyes and stared at Adrian coldly. "The aim of the autopsy is to obtain evidence and find the real murderer. What are you trying to achieve by objecting against this autopsy, Master Lynch?"
Adrian scoffed. "Find the real murderer?”
He raised his voice and deliberately angled his face to face the cameras behind Joshua, saying, "It's already clear who the real murderer is! It’s Luna, the woman you kissed yesterday! All the evidence is clear as day!"
He glared at Joshua coldly, his face entirely devoid of the nervousness he had experienced when Joshua interrogated him the day before. "What are you trying t o do, Joshua? Luna killed your grandmother, but you kissed her on the forehead. The evidence points to Luna being the murderer, yet you still want to perform an autopsy on Granny and find evidence to topple this case!
