Chapter 155:

? ? ? ? ?

Joshua quickly began investigating Gina's background. He discovered that the funds for Harley's operation had come from an anonymous benefactor.

However, he was unable to find any relevant information. This result was different from what he had expected and left him frustrated.

Noting his seriousness, Lilliana coldly commented, “It seems you become especially meticulous when Alicia is involved. “I didn’t know you cared so much about her.”

Joshua put down the phone.

For everyone's sake, he knew he had to convince her of his patience and kindness, no matter how exhausted he felt.

"With everything going on right now, how could I possibly focus on anything else? I just want to get through this difficult time with you."

Lilliana looked at him, disappointment evident in her eyes.

“You only appreciate my worth when you're in trouble,” he sneered. “Didn’t you consider the consequences when you were sneaking around with Alicia behind my back?”

When Lilliana discovered Alicia was staying at the Yates mansion, fury coursed through her veins. Although Joshua managed to calm her down later, the situation continued to gnaw at her.

As he held her, Joshua said reassuringly, “Alicia jumped on me. When I didn't respond, she turned to Caden. You know that, right?”

Lilliana pushed his hand away forcefully. “Do you think I'm a child?”

How could Alice stay at the Yates mansion for so long without Joshua's permission?

Lilliana had always recognized the complexity of Joshua's character.

She admired his intelligence and his ruthless ambition, but she couldn't accept it when it was directed against her.

“From now on, we must sleep in separate rooms,” he announced. “You can be with whoever you want. “I won’t mind.”

Hearing this, Joshua felt a flash of hope.

How can I let you sleep alone? I'd be so worried.
