Chapter 2307
Jim lifted his head to stare at Joshua, his eyes dull and lackluster. “Why else would Mother do this, then?”
He could not think of any reason to justify Rosalyn stopping Christopher from returning to help Bonnie.
“Perhaps she wasn’t trying to stop Christopher from flying back to help at all, but just trying to prevent him from
coming back during a time like this. After all, she knows better than anyone what condition Christopher is
in…
“She didn’t want Christopher to return because she knew that if he saw the state Bonnie and June were in, it’d
trigger a psychotic episode, and he’d blame everything on
you.
“Rosalyn was just concerned about you and Bonnie, and she wanted nothing more than for you to have a happy,
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtsmooth wedding ceremony. This was why she chose not to disclose this to Christopher and even instructed him not
to return home.”
Joshua’s words made the glimmer in Jim’s eyes return. He stared dazedly at Joshua and asked, “Are you… Do you
think that’s what happened?”
“Of course.” Joshua smiled at him. “Bonnie is a good person, and I’m sure God will bless her. Rosalyn was just doing
this for you and Bonnie because she didn’t want to see your wedding being gatecrashed.”
Jim let out a sigh as he closed his eyes. “But I ruined the wedding ceremony myself.”
“Now’s not the time to feel guilty.” Seeing that Jim had finally bought into Joshua’s explanation , Luna let out a sigh
of relief and interrupted Jim before he could fall into a spiral of guilt, “What we have to do now is get to the bottom
of what Mickey and Butler Fred have up their sleeves.”
They had used Sean’s address to forge a message to Christopher from Bonnie, making it seem as though Sean had
deliberately triggered Christopher’s psychotic episode.
What were they trying to achieve?
Did they want to get Sean kicked out of the Landry family? Or perhaps…they did not want Jim and Bonnie to get
married?
Could they have other ulterior motives for doing this?
Jim regained his composure and glanced at Luna, frowning. “How’re you planning to investigate this?”
“Well, since we know what they want, we might as well give it to them.” Joshua narrowed his eyes. “Since they want
us to think Sean was behind all this, we’ll just play along and try to observe their next move.”
Then, he lifted his head to glance at the operation room behind Jim. “However, we might need Sean’s help in this.
Jim lifted his head in warning upon hearing this.” What’re you going to do to my brother?”
Not even Jim himself noticed that he had referred to Sean as his brother out of instinct.
Joshua and Luna exchanged a glance, and Joshua broke out into a smile.
He strode over to Jim’s side and gently patted his shoulder in reassurance. “Don’t worry, Jim. Now that Sean is your
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmbrother, that makes him my cousin, too, and I promise I won’t do anything bad to him.
“It’s just…we might need him to put on a show with you and Luna, where you’ll both pretend to kick him out of the
Landry family and leave him to survive on his own.
“However, I’ll secretly send him over to Luke’s, where he’ll be taken good care of while he’s recovering from
surgery, and after we get to the bottom of Mickey and Butler Fred’s scheme, we’ll bring him back to Landry
Mansion.”
Joshua narrowed his eyes as he explained his plan to Jim, but his gaze seemed to penetrate past everything and
fixate on somewhere far, far away.
It was time to get to the bottom of everything, including
Rosalyn had denied ever trying to poison Granny Lynch, but all of her poisons were kept in the warehouse behind
Landry Mansion.
The only person besides Rosalyn who had access to the warehouse was Mickey.
If this was the case, Mickey was the only person who could have known the identity of Granny Lynch’s murderer.
