    Tina’s entire body stiffened, and she frowned at him. “What…kind of rtionship do you have with


    him?”


    She could tell from Thomas‘ attitude that he and Joshua were not just ordinary business.


    associates.


    “He and I go way back.” Thomas curled his lips into a smirk as though he could sense what. Tina was


    thinking and disdainfully added, “Aunt Tina, you’re far more naive than I thought. If you had spent the


    time to actually get to know Joshua, you would’ve discovered just how smart he is.


    “Not only does he dominate Banyan City, but he even turned Merchant City into his business. empire


    within a year of arriving there. You and I can barely even begin to imagine the true extent of his wealth


    and power.


    “The Howard family’s fortune is of no attraction to him at all. If he wanted to, he could’ve established a


    new business and dominated the entire Saigen City within months, so how could I have bought him out


    with money?”


    Despair crept across Tina’s face.


    She always thought that Joshua had begun working for Thomas because of the attractive reward he


    promised her. Even though she knew that Joshua was an exceptionally wealthy man and probably did


    not even care for Howard Group, she figured, who would say no to more money?


    If Thomas offered something attractive enough, she was sure that Joshua would agree to help him.


    Therefore, as soon as she was arrested, she began thinking of ways to utilize all her money, including


    the savings she had stashed overseas in preparation for Dan’s future, in order to bribe Joshua into


    dropping charges.


    This was why she wanted to know what rtionship Thomas and Joshua had.


    She was hopeful that she would receive the answer she wanted that Joshua was simply bribed into


    helping Thomas, but it was clear from Thomas‘ response that this was not the case.


    Joshua had not been helping him for the money at all, but if not.


    She bit her lip, staring at Thomas, and finally asked, “If he didn’t do this for the money what for?”


    Could he have agreed to help Thomas because he had at one point adopted Thomas and Yannie’s


    daughter?


    “That’s because we’re family.” Thomas did not intend to hide anything anymore. He stared intently at


    Tina and enunciated carefully, “My mother and Joshua’s mother, Rianne, are twin sisters, so what do


    you think that makes us?”


    Tina’s eyes widened in shock.


    Joshua…was Thomas‘ biological cousin?


    That crazy Rianne…was Joshua’s mother?


    How could she have carried such an intelligent man in her womb?


    “If I remember correctly, you had at one point bullied my Aunt Rianne just like how you did to my


    mother, right?”


    The color drained from Tina’s face. She bit her lip, and her entire body began to shake like a leaf.


    She…had indeed done bad things to Rianne in the past.


    Rianne and Eanne were identical twins.


    After she first slept with Senior Howard after rendering him drunk, she trotted over to Eanne’s ce,


    intending to taunt her with this.


    However, at that time, she did not know that Eanne had a twin sister, so she had mistaken Rianne for


    Eanne, who was pretending to be a lunatic on purpose and blinded her in one eye by ident.

    She suffered nightmares of this event for a long time after that, but gradually, as shemitted many


    more heinous crimes, she forgot about this incident.


    As Thomas brought this up, her entire body broke out in cold sweats as she remembered all the blood


    pouring out of that woman’s eye.
