CHAPTER 2592
Thomas furrowed his brow and said nothing to Yannie‘s words.
Yannie, assuming that Thomas was considering her logic with his silence, slowly persuaded him,
“Thomas, I know you don‘t like Joshua that much, but you can‘t just determine that he‘s terrible
because his father was a scumbag and how naive he was when he was five years old.”
No matter how Yannie was reluctant to believe Thomas, she could tell whether Joshua was a scumbag
or not. All this time, she knew how Joshua‘s attitude was when treating her mother, Luna, his three
children, and Riley.
Moreover… Thomas had been in Merchant City for more than a month. Ever since the first day he
arrived, he went after Joshua and Luna, even using being the ambassador of Luna‘s jewelry company
to threaten Luna. Despite Thomas‘ challenges and provocation, Joshua did nothing but had Yannie
gather Thomas‘ DNA specimens in exchange for payment. Joshua tolerated, understood, and took
care of Thomas.
Yannie did not believe a man like Joshua was what Thomas said he was.
“So you‘re saying…” Thomas smirked and looked at Yannie in disdain. “Even after I told you about my
aunt, you still don‘t believe me and rather believe in Joshua. Is that correct?” Yannie paused.
Obviously, she felt Thomas was upset. She took a deep breath and wanted to explain to him.
“I don‘t mean that. I just think there‘s a misunderstanding between you and Mr. Lynch, so—”
“There‘s no misunderstanding,” interjected Thomas curtly.
“I guess I‘m wrong.” Yannie was startled for a moment before joy filled her eyes.
“So you admit?”
“Of course.” Thomas opened the car door remotely. With a darkened gaze, he sneered, “I should‘ve
known.” He continued sarcastically, “I should‘ve known when there was a rumor about you and Joshua.
I kept telling myself that there‘s nothing between you and Joshua, but now…”
His eyes looked serious.
“I finally know the rumors aren‘t wholly unfounded. Even after I told you about my aunt, you‘re still
defending Joshua, taking his side! From the looks of it, your relationship with Joshua is closer than the
relationship between Joshua Luna. Well, I‘m sorry for getting in the way.” Yannie‘s eyes widened
instantly. She stared at the man in front of her and was at a complete loss for words. After a while, she
bit her lip and said, “Thomas, after everything that I told you, is this the conclusion you have? Is it?”
She had tried so hard to explain to Thomas that he had misunderstood Joshua and hoped he was not
biased toward Joshua, yet he brought out the rumor between her and Joshua to say she was selfish
and that there was something going on between her and Joshua! It seemed as though this was the
image he had of her. The prejudice he had toward Joshua was far greater than the time they had spent
together over a month. She even naively thought he was a good person when she went to visit Riley Têxt © .
with him.
She sniffled. “Thomas, I think I was wrong too. I shouldn‘t…
“I shouldn‘t think that both of us have feelings for each other.”
Suddenly, Thomas felt irritated to hear what Yannie said and to see tears that were about to leak from
her eyes.
