When Joshua saw Mickey, he, too, had caught sight of Joshua.
He curled his lips into a gentle smile and said, "We meet again, Mr. Lynch."
Joshua narrowed his eyes.
If he remembered correctly, this was the third time he had ever bumped into this man, and every time they ran into each other, Mickey would always greet him in a friendly and polite manner.
"Do you know each other?" Luna frowned, appearing surprised.
Even though the butler had told her this man named Mickey was Rosalyn's apprentice, this was still Luna's first time meeting him.
However, according to the way he greeted Joshua, they seemed to have known each other for a while.
"Of course we do." Joshua strode over to them, sneering, and said in a cold voice, "I've always wanted to ask Mr. Mickey a question."
Mickey pushed his gold-rimmed glasses up on his nose and did not seem at all surprised by Joshua's reaction and words. "Since my father has summoned me to meet Ms. Luna and answer her queries, naturally, I'll answer yours as well, considering you're
Ms. Luna's friend. Please fire away."
Joshua narrowed his eyes and asked curtly, "When m y Granny passed away, were you or were you not at the crime scene?"
The entire room fell silent.
Luna frowned, glancing at Joshua, then at Mickey.
Did Mickey have something to do with Granny Lynch's death?
Faced with Joshua's cold, hard stare, Mickey curled his lips into a smile. "Do you want to hear the truth?"
Joshua continued to stare at him wordlessly, but despite not having said a word, it was clear from his attitude what he wanted.
Mickey took a step back and smiled. "I was there at the crime scene."
Luna's entire body stiffened.
She could clearly feel the air around Joshua growing colder when Mickey gave his answer.
