"Great-Granny!"
Nellie bit her lip. She grabbed Luna's finger with her small hands. "I've already said that I only want Aunty t o take care of me! Great-Granny, if you're going to be like that, I won't like you anymore!"
Granny Lynch forcefully dimmed her aloofness and forced a smile. "Nellie, I've already said it. You're one o f the masters. You can't rely on a servant so much."
She then looked at the butler coldly. "Take the little princess out to play. I want to speak to Ms. Luna in private."
Nellie bit her lip. She knew that nothing good could come out of the conversation. She immediately hugged her thin arms around Luna’s.
"No! I want to be with Aunty. Whoever breaks us up, I'll hate them forever!"
Granny Lynch’s expressions got uglier at Nellie's carefree words.
Joshua had never gotten close with any women for the past few years. Granny Lynch had even thought she might not be able to see the day where four generations could be together.
At that moment, a great-granddaughter suddenly appeared out of nowhere. Granny Lynch was so afraid
to lose her, so she treated Nellie as her precious baby.
Even though she would constantly give in to Nellie, she had her bottom line and her principles, too.
Nellie relied on Luna, a servant, more than she relied o n family. This was unacceptable! Luna had to be removed!
Moreover, Luna not only got Nellie's heart, but even Joshua also held her in high regard!
At the fire a few days ago, Joshua had already seen that Nellie was safe, but at the very crucial moment, h e still rushed into the fire to rescue Luna. He even got into a fight with the people outside the fire!
This was the second time Granny Lynch had seen Joshua risk everything for this woman.
The last woman who had this effect on Joshua was Luna Gibson.
After her death, Joshua holed himself in his room and drank excessively. He almost tortured himself to death! 1
At that thought, Granny Lynch's eyes turned even colder.
