Chapter 2306
“You’re right; that is Mickey.” Joshua glanced first at Jim, then at the phone.
There was a message from Lucas, received a second ago.
[We’ve cleared the entire floor, and Mickey has already left the hospital. I’m still following him.]
Joshua narrowed his eyes at the sight of this, then lifted his head to stare at Jim’s baffled face. “Mickey and Butler
Fred are trying to drive a wedge between the two of you.
“To be specific, they’re trying to turn you, Luna, and Sean against each other.”
Jim’s mouth dropped open in shock, but not a single word came out.
He stared dazedly at Joshua and Luna, but the confusion in his eyes only grew deeper. “What do you mean?”
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtWhy was Mickey eavesdropping on their argument?
Why would Joshua say that Mickey and Butler Fred were trying to drive a wedge between the three of them?
“Let me explain .” Seeing how perplexed Jim was, Luna
let out a sigh and plopped down on the bench, then told him everything, including her and Joshua’s visit to
Christopher and their subsequent investigation.
“So you’re saying that…” Jim furrowed his eyebrows and said dubiously, “The butler and Mickey…are deliberately
trying to turn me, Luna, and Sean against each other? They used Christopher’s love towards Bonnie and June
against him and forged an email to him from Bonnie, which indirectly led to Christopher going insane?”
Luna nodded in affirmation. “That’s right. Jim, you know for a fact that Christopher would never disobey Mother’s
orders, but this time, he still returned home despite Mother calling him and telling him not to.
“This was what tipped Joshua and me off, so we asked Christopher about this and discovered that someone else has
been engineering this scheme!”
Jim narrowed his eyes and stared at Luna in bafflement.” There’s one thing I still don’t understand . Mother was the
one who diagnosed Bonnie and declared that she only had seven days left to live. Besides, I had also contacted
Christopher in front of her.”
He lifted his head to meet her gaze; his dark eyes etched with confusion. “Why did Mother secretly phone
Christopher to ask him not to return to Merchant City after my call with him?”
He could not wrap his head around this; did Rosalyn not want Bonnie to get well as soon as possible?
Could there be another reason for Rosalyn’s actions?
Luna froze when she heard this.
She fell silent for a moment, then suddenly realized that she had accidentally let slip something she should not
have.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmTelling Jim that someone had forged an email to Christopher from Bonnie would suffice, but out of her desperation
to explain everything as clearly as possible, she had accidentally blurted out the truth about Rosalyn’s interference
as well.
“Luna?” Jim grew even more puzzled when Luna did not answer. “There has to be another story to this, then. Could
it be that…”
The glimmer in his eyes dimmed. “Could it be that… Mother knew there was no point saving Bonnie anymore, so
she didn’t want Christopher to travel all the way here for nothing? Is that why she called Christopher to stop him
from returning?”
He lowered his head and murmured, “I should’ve known. Bonnie…”
Seeing that Jim was beginning to sink into despair, Joshua furrowed his brows and patted Jim’s shoulder.” Don’t be
so pessimistic; I’m sure that wasn’t what Rosalyn meant.”
