The sudden accusation made Luna dumbfounded. She paused and sneered at Alice, ”Why do you
think I care?”
It was true she did not hear the worker’s cries of warning, nor Joshua and Alice’s words of caution. If
she had heard them, why would she not get out of harm’s way?
Luna let out a deep sigh and glanced at Alice. ”Mrs. Lynch, are you suggesting that I was so certain Mr.
Lynch would save me if I placed myself in harm’s way?”
Alice’s face turned pale at her words.
Luna continued with a smirk, ”You were right, Mrs. Lynch. Although Mr. Lynch made you apologize to
me just now, he still comforted you instead of me. This clearly shows that he deeply cares for you. If
that’s the case, why would he treat me differently? Why would I be so certain that Mr. Lynch would save
me if I put myself in danger?
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇt”If I had made the wrong call, Mr. Lynch wouldn’t have rescued me, and I’ d be the one in here, getting
stitches. Let me ask you this, Mrs. Lynch. If you were in my shoes, would you put yourself in danger out
of jealousy?”
Alice’s face was even whiter than the wall behind her. Then, after a moment, she bit down on her lip
and argued, ”You knew Joshua saw the rock flying toward you, and you knew that he’d save you
because you’re one of Lynch Group’s star employees ! ”
Since Alice could not use Luna and Joshua’s relationship against her, she had no choice but to bring
up Joshua’s devotion toward his employees. ” Joshua loves all his employees ! If any of them got hurt,
he’d do anything to help them ! ”
Luna stared at Alice and suddenly realized it was pointless in arguing with her. Alice was stubborn, and
she was convinced Luna caused this accident on purpose.
”Ms. Luna is an outstanding employee , so it’s only natural that Mr. Lynch would be willing to save her ”
The supervisor sighed. ”She was so focused when
I was explaining the data to her just now. I’ve been working there for more than ten years now, but this
is the first time I’ve ever come across someone this committed… ”
Alice frowned at his explanation. ” So what if she’s committed? She— ”
”Her commitment means she’ll be an excellent worker who can help Lynch Group achieve more in its
jewelry development, ” interjected Joshua before Alice could finish her sentence. He came out of the
treatment room with his arm wrapped in layers of bandage. The doctor had finished suturing his wound
and had his injured arm in a sling.
Although he looked no different from a typical injured patient, the sling somehow gave Joshua an air of
pride and pomposity instead of frailness.
”Luna was so engrossed in her work that she didn’t hear any of our cries,“ he said as he stepped out of
the room. He glanced at Alice and continued, “If I hadn’t pushed her out of the way, the rock would’ve

Alice’s expression darkened. “But…“
“There are no ‘but’s. Luna is an intelligent woman, and she’d never put herself in danger just to get
back at you.“
Alice scowled. She could not believe that Joshua was taking Luna’s side! He even called her
committed and intelligent!
Alice bit her lip nervously. “Joshua, I was just worried about you…“
“I know you’re worried about me, but that doesn’t mean you can talk about my employee like that.“
Joshua turned around and shot Luna a glance. “It’s good that you’re a focused worker, but the next
time you’re in a place where accidents tend to happen, please keep an eye out and protect yourself. I
won’t rescue you a second time.“
With that, he strode out of the clinic without turning back. Alice frowned and sprinted after him. “Where
are you going, Joshua?“
“I’m going back to the workshop. We haven’t finished our work yet.“
