She feigned innocence and questioned Joshua, "Why are you asking me this, Mr. Lynch?”
Joshua narrowed his eyes. "No reason." With that, he slammed the door shut, and the car pulled away.
Luna gazed in the direction the Maserati had left and furrowed her brows.
Did she...get too carried away back there?
"Where are we going, Sir?" asked Lucas as he drove the car out of Swan Lake Residences.
Joshua, who sat in the backseat, rubbed his eyebrows and said, “Let's go to Jude's place.”
Lucas paused. "Sir... Are you sure?"
It was already 10 p.m., and Jude was an early riser, so he would have already gone to bed.
"Yes, I’m sure," Joshua replied impassively, then picked up the phone and dialed Jude's number. "Hey, I'm heading to your place now. You don't mind, right?"
"I do, very much," replied Jude with a yawn. “It's so late now. Why are you coming over at this hour?”
"I don't have anywhere else to go, so I’ll be sleeping at your place tonight."
Jude froze for a moment, then chuckled. "Dude, you have a wife waiting for you at home and a mistress, too. How could you possibly not have any place to go?"
Joshua frowned but did not reply. Instead, he immediately hung up the phone without saying another word.
Jude realized that Joshua had hung up and shot his phone a murderous glare.
