"I'm sure Luna will be able to handle this."
Charles sighed and glanced at Luna.
Finally, he turned to stare meaningfully at Butler Fred and Mickey, who were both restrained by the
servants.
"Send them to the police station and take care of this."
The servants nodded before bringing the two prisoners away.
Just as Butler Fred and Mickey reached the door, Luna hesitated for a moment before finally saying,
"Wait."
She remained motionless and stared at them through narrowed eyes.
"There's one more thing I need to say, not only to you but to my parents and Jim, too, and that is..."
She let out an exhale.
"I'm not going to take over the family business.I never have, and I never will.
"The idea of taking over such a large-scale business has never once crossed my mind.I've always
known that Jim would be the most suitable person to take up this responsibility.
"Therefore, I had been lying to all of you when I admitted to being the future heir of the Landry family
business."
As she said this, she turned to stare at Charles and Rosalyn.
"I hope you won't force me into doing something I don't want, which is taking over Landry Group.All I
want to do is spend time with Joshua as his wife and be a good mother to my children."
She let out an exhale.
"Nonetheless, I will still continue my work at the jewelry design company that Landry Group and Lynch
Group invested in.I'm a jewelry designer, after all, and this is the only thing I do best, so..."
She turned to glance at Jim, then smiled.
"I'll leave the business to you."
Finally, she let out a sigh of relief and reached out to take Joshua's hand.
There's one more thing Joshua and I have to do, which is to track down our missing daughter.
When we finally do, all of us will return to Banyan City together."
Butler Fred, who had been listening to this avidly, immediately slumped in defeat upon hearing this
declaration.
He thought he had a fighting chance as long as Luna possessed the intent to take over the Landry
family business.
However, Luna's announcement had extinguished the last remaining flame of hope in his heart.
"Luna..."
Jim frowned at her.
"You heard just now that I have my own businesses to run outside the LBEX&AKkNJry family, and I
had always wanted to return Landry Group to you as well.
"After all, I'm not Mother's biological son, so I have no right—"
"You have every right as my son,"
Rosalyn interjected him before he could finish.She fixated her penetrating stare on Jim's face and
continued, "I've always thought of you as my son.To me, it doesn't really matter whether we're truly
related by blood or not, and what matters is the emotional bond between us."
Then, she turned to glance at Charles.
Charles nodded in agreement.
"Rosalyn is right.Please don't turn us down this time, Jim.As for Lulu..."
He shot her a meaningful look.
"As her father, I'd much rather see her living the life she truly wants."
Jim fell silent for a long time, and just as he was about to speak, his phone suddenly rang.
It was Luke.
Jim picked up the call, frowning.
"Your brother has gone missing."
