Chapter 2954

"Okay," replied Joshua after a moment of silence.

"You shouldn't stay here long. The police will be on me since Jacqueline is dead. They'll be here anytime soon looking for me," he said.

He gave John a name card. "This is a name card of a logistic company's owner. He owes me big time. Take this name card to him, and he'll know you're my friend. I'll keep my promise and never ask the owner your whereabouts with Sammie, ever."

John paused and nodded while he tightened his fist with the name card in his palm. "Goodbye."

"Take care," bade Joshua.

John turned around and used the black baseball cap to hide his face while walking away with the umbrella. Just as he got to the street, a police car drove by.

It was a dim morning, and it was raining to boot. The police were busy tracking where Joshua had been last night, so none of them noticed the man with the umbrella leaving.

The moment John passed by the police car, he smiled ambiguously and contacted the owner of the logistics company via phone.

In the meantime, the police car arrived at Joshua's villa. They got out of the car and started to question Joshua as they entered the villa. To their surprise, this business mogul was not arrogant nor unfriendly like the other rich people. Throughout their exchange, he had been sincere and serious about cooperating with the police.

He even asked the maid to prepare coffee for the police to make sure the police had enough energy to keep their head clear to question him in the rainy weather. It lasted until the evening.

When Joshua sent the police away from the villa, his phone rang.

It was from the owner of the logistics company.

"Mr. Lynch, your friend has left Banyan City safely. He requested a truck from me and brought a lady and a kid with him."

"Thank you," Joshua said.

"You don't have to thank me." The owner of the logistics company smiled on the other end of the line. "They're heading to the east. I guess they're heading-"

"You don't have to tell me where they are going," Joshua interrupted.

John's stance on never contacting each other in the future was right. If that decision could keep both of them feeling safe, then so be it. He respected John's choice.

However...

He sighed. He did not know if Luna could accept this decision. If she could not contact John and Sammie ever in the future, it meant Luna could never go to Anne's grave to repent and mourn ever in her life. It would be a huge take for her.

He took a deep breath and put away his phone to leave the villa. The place he headed to was the police station.

Since he behaved nicely during the morning session, it did not take long for him to see Luna.

Luna looked like a different person, even after not seeing her for only a night. She was awfully haggard.

She tried to put a smile on her face when she saw Joshua, but she failed. After a while, she gave up and stretched her lips. "I bet I look very awful now."

She failed to protect her best friend and avenge her death. It was not exaggerated to say she must be the biggest laughingstock in Banyan City.
