Chapter 1975 Joshua was right; Malcolm could not possibly leave Merchant City on his own at this point.
Therefore, instead of trying desperately to escape but inevitably being captured by Quentin, it was better for him to seek out his father.
After all, both Granny Quinn and Quentin were religious people, and surely they would not dare to disturb the peace of such a holy sanctuary.
As soon as she thought of this, Luna could not help lamenting, “I never thought Malcolm would be this smart.”
“It wasn’t him; it was me.” Joshua curled his lips into a smirk, pulled Luna into his arms, and said impassively, “I was the one who gave him this idea.”
Luna froze for a moment, then frowned. “Why did you help him?”
She had already been clear with Malcolm the day before about her refusal to help him, so why did Joshua secretly help him and even gave him the idea of seeking refuge with his father?
Truth be told, Luna could not wait to see Malcolm get caught by the Quinn family.
She wanted to watch his loyalty crumble.
After all, he had done almost everything he had for the Quinn family and had even ruined Luna’s looks and stolen her daughter away, all for the sake of the Quinn family.
Therefore, she wanted nothing more than to witness him being betrayed by the people he trusted.
Joshua snickered. “Do you think I had done that to help Malcolm?”
Malcolm was just a pawn in his game of chess; his true intentions were to find Samuel.
Joshua had already thought of this from the very beginning. Since Samuel had left home and become a priest the same year Lucy died, it was highly likely that he had been involved in her murder as well.

Even though Joshua could not seem to find out the true identity of the person named ‘Star’, that did not mean Samuel could not either.
After all, he was, at one point, the master of the Quinn family, so it was impossible for him not to know.
Because of this, Joshua had deliberately allowed Malcolm to escape so that the Quinn family and Samuel would get into a conflict, whereby he would be able to find Star.
However, when Joshua had planned this the day before, he had not seen the contents of the rings yet.
Since he had watched the videos contained within the ring, Joshua was even more certain that Samuel must possess crucial information about Lucy’s death.
The fact that Samuel had given Luna one of the rings and even hinted to her about the clue hidden within them meant that he had longed to expose the truth.
He just never had the opportunity to do so.
Joshua was willing to give him this chance.
As soon as he thought of this, Joshua curled his lips into a smile and pulled Luna close to him.” We’ll find out the truth soon.”
With that, he pushed open the door and got out of the car.
Luna had no choice but to follow him, even though she had no idea what he had up his sleeve.
The two of them made their way toward Quentin.
Quentin, who had been standing at the door with his back facing them, immediately turned around when he heard footsteps.
When he saw that it was Joshua and Luna, he could not help snickering. “I didn’t know you two had taken your relationship public.”
With that, he shot Luna a taunting glance and added, “Aren’t you worried about the Landry family chastising you if they see you and Joshua out in public together?”
