Chapter 2604 “Joshua, I know that you don‘t like me. You even hate me, but if I had any other choice. I wouldn‘t
have looked for you.”
Adrian began to complain, “Some time back, a group called Orming Tech came to Banyan City to do business. They
were looking for a partner and found me. “You know how careful I am. Initially, I never thought of working with
them, but I had no choice. They were great at brainwashing people. After your aunt was brainwashed, she forced
me to invest with her.
“I had a momentary lapse of judgment, so I agreed to it and even invested all of my money in
1. it.
“I initially thought I could earn from that and have a good life with your aunt, but...”

recent news.
He had not paid attention to things in Banyan City for a long time, but his home base was still in Banyan City, which
was why anything that happened to the malls in Banyan City, someone would compile a document and send it to
him at first notice.
Thus, Joshua could simply look through it and find information on Orming Tech.
Sure enough, the boss behind Orming Tech was none other than the person who was drunk, unconscious, and
under the care of Yannie – Thomas Howard.
Joshua narrowed his eyes.
In fact, since Luna told him about his mother‘s true cause of death and the reason why Thomas hated him, Joshua
had seen this coming.
Due to his mother, since Thomas felt that none of the family members of the Lynch family were good people when
he came to Merchant City to go up against him, he would have gone after Adrian, too.
It was just what he thought.
Thomas used Orming Tech as bait to lure Adrian and his wife in and successfully conned them of their money.
“Joshua, help me out.”
Seeing Joshua not saying anything, Adrian sighed and continued lamenting, “If Michael wasn‘t in prison, I‘d still have
someone to rely on. But Michael is terrible. He did such a thing... “Joshua, I can only count on you right now. You
don‘t have to give me much; one Fo&{evx< a half million dollars is enough! One and a half million dollars, and I‘ll
never come looking for you anymore. Please!”
Adrian knew that Joshua had been doing quite well in Merchant City for the past year, which was why he had asked
for this amount.

“You have a happy family and are earning lots right now. Just treat it as if you‘re sympathizing with your old man,
please?”
Joshua narrowed his eyes. Listening to his father‘s pretentious voice, he smiled icily. “Sure.” Hearing him agreeing
to it, Adrian was so excited he almost jumped in joy. “Are you certain Joshua? That‘s amazing! i knew you‘d be as
kind as your mother. I knew you‘d care for me!” Upon hearing Adrian mention his mother, Joshua narrowed his
eyes. “I‘ve never met my mother before.”
All thanks to Adrian, might he add. Adrian, on the other end of the line, did not understand the meaning of Joshua‘s
words. He thought that Joshua was just lamenting casually, so he pretended to be sad and sighed.
“Your mother was a good person. Back then, when I was down on my luck, she was the one who helped me.
Without her...”
Halfway through, Adrian was suddenly at a loss for words. After all, he had no feelings for Rianna at all. He merely
used her for his benefit.
