"I can get Mrs. Quinn for you... I must say, however, that she's decorating the yard right now, so she might be a little busy."
As soon as Joshua heard this, he grew even more outraged than before. He said with a cold, expressionless face, "Did the Quinn family put you up t o this? How dare you even lie?"
Luna had only agreed to marry Malcolm because she was threatened, so how could she be decorating the yard on her own?
Moreover, how could she willingly own the title of Mrs. Quinn?
The servant rolled her eyes at Joshua and replied," What do you mean, I'm lying?”
With that, she ordered one of the younger maids to summon Luna, "Go and get Mrs. Quinn to come here quickly. Tell her that someone is here to cause trouble!"
Joshua, who had not gotten any rest for almost a week, felt as though his head was about to split apart. He leaned against a pillar at the entrance of the Quinn Mansion's yard so that he would not pass out.
He had to hear the Quinn family explain themselves. This was a must!
If the Quinn family could not give him a satisfactory explanation for what they did, he would bankrupt them alongside the Landry family!
Soon, the sound of high-heeled footsteps rang out through the yard, along with a displeased voice. "Who on earth would stir up trouble here?"
Even though Quinn Mansion was where Malcolm lived, the engagement party was set to be held at the Starhill Hotel. Therefore, why would someone want to cause trouble here? If anything, they should go to Starhill Hotel instead!
Luna puzzled over this as she strode out of the yard.
As soon as she exited, she caught sight of the pale-faced man leaning against the pillar.
The last time Luna saw Joshua look so pale was when he had suffered multiple knife wounds.
However, this time, she could tell that his lack of color was not due to injury but instead due to exhaustion.
She let out an exhale and suppressed the sympathy and concern she felt for him. Then, she lifted his head to stare at him and said in a frosty tone, "Mr. Lynch, I didn't think you'd be so free to stop by Quinn Mansion."
