Chapter 742 New Information
With a smile, Josh nodded. "Alright. You're the boss."
At his age, Josh didn't expect that he would still need comfort from Sean.
When he was about to leave after dropping him off at the airport, Josh ran into Eric, who had just returned from his event.
As it had been a while since Josh last saw Eric, their unexpected encounter made him feel somewhat uneasy.
"You've been quite busy all year round," Josh said with a smile.
Raising his hand, Eric adjusted his mask. "I'll rest at the hotel for a while and prepare dinner. Why don't you come over and join me? It's been ages since we last got together, so I want to chat with you."
"Sure." Considering that he had nothing else to do and his house was empty, Josh didn't feel like going back. Belonging © NôvelDram/a.Org.
Once they arrived at the hotel, Eric took off his coat, sunglasses, and mask. Then, he walked to the couch and picked up the remote control to close the curtains.
"It's been a while, Josh." Eric's expression turned serious.
"What's wrong?" For some reason, Josh sensed that Eric wanted to tell him something based on his demeanor.
"There's something… I'm not sure if it's just my speculation or if it's true. It's about Luna." Eric raised his head and looked at Josh with a serious expression.
Josh didn't say anything. However, his face turned pale, and his hand by his side couldn't stop trembling.
"I have a cousin who is pretty close to me. Because she used to dislike Abigail, she paid attention to her and Luna. She told me that she seemed to have seen Luna at her house. Doesn't that sound terrifying to you?" Eric stared straight at Josh.
Josh's lips turned pale as well. His voice trembled slightly. "Is it true?"
"I'm not sure… My cousin said she accidentally saw her one night. But Luna clearly…" Eric couldn't continue the rest of his words, for he knew very well the feelings Josh had for Luna.
Even though the news was hidden from the public when Luna died, some prominent families knew about it.
"Which cousin are you talking about?" Josh remained calm.
"My third uncle, Levi Davidson's daughter, Emma Davidson. My uncle has been doing business overseas and rarely comes back. He only returns during New Year's. Back then, my uncle and aunt were busy with work, so Emma stayed with us for a long time. We are close, so I believe her words." Eric deliberately chose to return at such a crucial moment, hoping he could run into Josh and share this information with him.
"Eric… do you know why Luna died?" Josh's voice was bitter and filled with pain.
"Of course!" Eric's voice grew louder a little. "I'm scared now. I fear what Vincent did was the same as what my Uncle Levi did… including the involvement of many other individuals we don't know."
Although he maintained his sincerity, he knew very well how immense the network of interests in these circles was after spending years in the entertainment industry.
Josh pondered. Actually, Sean and I already know all of this.
Even my seemingly kind and generous Grandmother might also be involved.
"Eric, what will you do if it really turns out as you think? Do you trust your parents?" Josh asked calmly.
"I trust no one until the truth of the matter is revealed. How about you? Will you trust Vincent? I don't think so, right?" Eric felt that since this matter involved plenty of money and even Luna's life and death, he couldn't just blindly trust anyone, not even his own parents.
"Of course, I don't believe Vincent. It's a fact that he committed a crime. It's just that there's no evidence," Josh said coldly.
"Josh, perhaps you are unaware of the structure of the Davidson Family. My Grandma was once a prominent lady in Herith. Having married into a prestigious family like my Grandpa's, do you think there's a chance she merely appears gentle and friendly?" Ever since Eric learned that Luna might be at Levi's house, he felt that everything in his family had become unfamiliar.
Now, I am hesitant to trust anyone solely based on family ties.
I, too, have my own judgment.
Grandma clearly knew Vincent had committed a crime. Yet, why did she still insist that I marry the person who drugged me?
Would she sacrifice my happiness and future if there was no benefit for her?
I was doing so well in the entertainment industry. If Grandma had considered my future, she should have known that this marriage would bring me no good and could potentially tarnish my reputation due to Vincent's actions.
Yet, Grandma still agreed to this marriage.
It was inherently unreasonable in the first place.
Is this so-called family friend truly more important than me?
"Can I trust you?" Truthfully, Josh was somewhat uncertain about the truth behind Eric's words.
He had only recently received the information, and Eric subtly brought news that Luna might still be alive.
While Kevin's claim was a guess, what Eric said was a concrete fact, something he witnessed with his own eyes.
"It's understandable that you don't believe me. After all, Luna's situation is so complicated. If it was me, I wouldn't trust anyone either," Eric said and sighed. "But if you want me to continue helping you, I will talk to Emma and ask her to find a way to take photos. But don't get your hopes up too much. Her family has lived overseas for a long time, and I'm unfamiliar with my Uncle Levi's character."
Eric's words are clear. Supposing his uncle and grandmother were truly involved in what Vincent did, they would most likely abandon their own family when things get exposed. After all, isn't that what happened to Vincent's family? Vincent severed all ties with his daughter once he found her no longer of use to him.
