After lunch, Joshua sat down on the sofa and called Jude
Jude was so overjoyed to hear that Joshua had returned, he almost wanted to reach into the phone to hug him. “Where are you guys? I’ll go pick you up right now! Don’t worry-I promise I won’t let your father know about this, and I’ll try my best to lose the reporters following me too! Don’t worry, my friend! Give me your address right now!”
Joshua could not help curling his lips into a smile when he heard the excitement in Jude’s voice. “This is precisely the reason why I didn’t ask you for help and went to John instead.
He and Jude had known each other for many years, whereas Joshua had only gotten to know John from Luna and Anne Therefore, Joshua should have sought out Jude’s help instead when deciding to return to Banyan City, but he chose not to, precisely because he did not feel confident letting Jude handle this.

“Why don’t you trust me? Jude was upset to hear this. “I’m your best friend””
“It’s not you that I don’t trust, it’s the people who are following you around. Do you honestly think I don’t know about you rejecting Miss Chance? Ever since you rejected her offer of marriage, you’ve become one of the most sought-after bachelors in Banyan City. Everyone is on the edge of their seat, waiting to find. out whether you’re secretly seeing someone else, which would explain why you rejected Miss Chance. Do you think I’d dare to ask for your help knowing this?”
Jude fell silent upon hearing this. A split second later, he let out a sigh and lamented, “You’re right. I’ve become the talk of the town but I truly do not want to marry that woman. She’s too deceitful.”
He sighed again. “Well, why did you choose to come home all of a sudden? Do you intend to give your father a surprise at his wedding?”
Joshua narrowed his eyes and smirked. “I guess you can say that.”
He had indeed planned to give Adrian a surprise, but that did not mean it would be a good one.
“I guess things in Saigen City have been going well.” Jude had already known of Joshua’s intentions for going to Saigen City in the first place and thus did not seem at all surprised at Joshua’s sudden return. I’ve also managed to gather some evidence about Adrian’s wrongdoings in Banyan City over the past year, but since you don’t want me to find you, I won’t as for that John fellow you mentioned how can I get in touch with him?”
Joshua furrowed his brow, but before he could even answer, Luna piped up. “I’m going shopping with my friend later. Why don’t you meet me at the shopping mall and hand me all the documents there?”
Jude raised his brows at this. “Joshua is forced to stay at home and does not even allow me to visit him for fear of being recognized-yet you’re planning to go out shopping with your friend later?”
Luna rolled her eyes and pursed her lips slightly as she continued picking out her outfit. “Why can’t [ Everyone here knows Joshua, but only a handful can recognize me. Besides, even if they recognize me. they’d only seen the version of me with a full face of makeup in Joshua and I’s wedding photos. How can anyone recognize me if I go out bare-faced?”
Jude chuckled at this “Are you trying to say that you look horrendous without makeup?”
“She’s absolutely stunning even without makeup.” Joshua interjected. “However, there are plenty of pretty women in this city, and she and Anne will not draw too much attention. I don’t want Luna to be bored to death at home, so I’ve allowed her to go out for a shopping spree”
