"Okay, I'll treat you as such. You could think of using a million dollars to get Luna to leave me just from what Aura said, but...

"You'd do well to listen, Granny Lynch. Even if there is no Luna, even if she took the million dollars and went away, I'd still call off the marriage with Aura. This won't affect my decision, so save the money. It's pointless."

Joshua then stood up to leave.

"Joshua Lynch !" The infuriated Granny Lynch took the teacup on the coffee table and threw it at Joshua. Smash!

The teacup landed next to Joshua's feet. It shattered as the tea splashed onto his pants. Joshua stopped in his tracks, but he did not turn back.

Granny Lynch gritted her teeth. "What on earth are you trying to do? Back then, you insisted on marrying Luna Gibson into the Lynch family against all of our objections. She married into the family for a few years, yet she didn't even bear you any children before she died in an accident.

"After her death, you rejected all the women that the family arranged for you. You insisted on Aura as your fiancée. It's been five years, and now you're calling off the engagement? Are you planning to wait for another six years before getting married? I just want grandchildren. How hard is that?"

Joshua turned back and looked at Granny Lynch. "If you just want grandchildren, I'll fulfill your wish. I've made up my mind with Aura. Stop wasting your efforts."

Then, Joshua stormed off and left Granny Lynch glaring at him furiously on the spot.

Would her wishes be fulfilled? How would he do that? Luna Gibson had been dead for six years, and he had not touched a single woman since. He and Aura had been living separately; they did not even share the same bed! Where in the world was he going to give her grandchildren?

Granny Lynch was furious at the thought.

The butler beside her passed Granny Lynch a mirror. "Granny, don't be angry. You'll get older faster that way."

Granny Lynch looked at the mirror and saw the necklace she was wearing. Aura especially gave the necklace to her so that she would help Aura get rid of the maid.

However, at that moment, not only did she fail to do so, but Joshua even left her with a warning!

Granny Lynch was even more depressed at the thought, and her mood remained so for the rest of the morning.

By noon, after her nap, she felt much better, but she had just woken up when a servant knocked on her door and said, "Granny, Ms. Gibson has been waiting for you downstairs for half an hour already." Granny Lynch unwillingly went downstairs.

"Granny!" Upon hearing Granny Lynch coming down the stairs, Aura excitedly got up and smiled at her.

"Granny, how did it go? I heard that Joshua came to look for you this morning. What did he say to you?" Granny Lynch sighed. "Aura, it's not that I don't want to help you, but Joshua is being stubborn- " "Granny."

Before Granny Lynch could finish her sentence, Aura took another box out from behind her. "I brought you another design by Mr. Y. This is the same series as the one on your neck. Have a look at it. Do you like it?"

Granny looked at the box in Aura's hand. She coughed dryly. "Let me think of another way."
