zepp · Answer

Nathan: Joshua broke the vase. 
Joshua: Nathan did not do it. 

there, Nathan accuses Joshua, but Joshua didn't do a comeback?

Joshua: Nathan did not do it. 
Michelle: Joshua lied when he said Nathan did not do it. 

Joshua and Michelle's saying are contradicting each other, therefore either Joshua or Michelle are lying.

zepp · Answer

What Joshua said was indeed to protect Nathan from being discovered, hence, Michelle's saying the truth, therefore Joshua lied, Nathan did it.
